Plot:
Three beautiful female singers tantalise a group of alternative rock gig-goers with their enchanting voices. They become the lucky guests or rather victims of the house of Valice. However, the tables turn quite suddenly when the ladies realize they are in fact the unfortunate victims of the madness which they themselves created…
Reviews:
“One startling reveal during the dinner scene and the first appearance of a grotesque creature are well crafted but linger for a beat too long. Picky observations perhaps, but a tightening of these scenes would make these very well done moments that much more effective […] It’s as unpredictable as it is entertaining.” Morbidly Beautiful
“Now Bite Night sure isn’t a film set out to re-invent vampire cinema – but that said, it’s really good at what it had set out to do, and that’s just telling a thoroughly entertaining genre story that seems to always have a twinkle in the eye without ever going the moronic route…” Search My Trash
