A Misrecorded DVD Of A Fun Movie.......2007-03-02

If you have any thoughts of buying this DVD I want to give you fair warning that it is improperly recorded. In a pathetic attempt to conceal the fact that `Blood Angels' AKA `Thralls' never played in theaters, the picture aspect ratio is artificially widened!!! Hence, the film in letter boxed and stretched so the ratio is 125% wider than natural!!! Unless you can manually adjust the aspect ration on your TV or PC this DVD may be UNWATCHABLE.

Such a shame since `Blood Angels' is a guilty pleasure. The plot is thin but the concept is fascinating.

Vampire Master Lorenzo Lamas holds starlet wannabes hostage in his mansion turning them into "thralls" half vampires. The girls rebel and are able to escape with the valuable Necronomicon. (So that's what happened to the Necronomicon, it's been in Lorenzo Lamas' attic.) The thralls open a Hollywood nightclub where male guests get sucked in more way than one. They're not complaining. The thralls study the Necronomicon in hope of becoming full blooded vampires.

Why it works: Anime actor Richard Ian Cox best known as playing Inuyasha totally steals the show by hamming it up as Lamas' vampire familiar. The opening scene is worth it all. As Cox returns to the darkened mansion, he enters the attic and is blinded by white light. The entire attic is bright white including the thralls' wedding gown clothing and Cox's three piece suit. The thralls are chained together in the center of the room. Cox says, "Hello ladies. Miss me? I brought you dinner." (or words to that effect) He removes a bloody rat from a brown paper bag. The thralls drool hungrily at it. "It's fresh." As he drops it on the floor it is still twitching. Cox looks concerned as one of the girls Roxie is absent. "Roooxiiieee?" he calls as to a kitten. He follows her chain behind a curtain and finds it attached to a severed foot.

Blood Angels is the story of a small town girl who has come to stay in the city with her big sister. Little realizing that the sister and the rest of the club staff are actually demi-vampires.

Judging by the cover of this film, I expected it to be cheesecake. Parts were. But I was pleased to see there were actually a few hot guys in this too.

Parts of this film were actually kind of funny like the Japanese kid who wanted to be a hipster, and the comments made by the master vampire. I particularly thought the ending was pretty funny.

This is a B-rated campy, silly vampire film with a few good scenes. Rated R for nudity and violence.

I should've known better.......2005-04-11

I am a collector of vampire movies, but I try to stay away from the cheapie home-made Grade ZZZ vampire movies. But every now and then I get suckered. Like on Dracula 3000 and now on this one. The one reviewer does a good job on explaining the "plot", threadbare as it is. The production values are very VERY low. The whole story pretty much takes place in the nightclub run by vampires. Dull. I gave it two stars because the actors (except for Fernando Lamas) really give it a good try working with what they've got. Skip it, unless you absolutely MUST have every vampire or Fernando Lamas movie available.

Blood Angels (aka Thralls) is a clone of a number of other bikini-clad vampire films - with a story-line very much like Embrace the Darkness II/Morgana/Blonde Heaven about a girl who goes to the big city to look for her sister who happens to be a vampire - or to be exact a "Thrall", in this film thralls are blood-suckers too, but with not quite the same powers as vampires.

They escape from their vampire master, set up a bar to host parties, and feed from muscled studs. There's only two 'sex' scenes with the most minimal amount of skin shown... except one case where there's very likely a body-double used.

Can the 'thralls' evade their vampire master for long? Will the hick country sister save her 'evil' sister? Why is it that she can blurt out to a complete stranger that her sister's a vampire, and he believes her instead of seeking medical help for her?

There are a very few interesting special effects, such as a vampire girl sticking her tongue about 15cms into the air (whether it's to 'taste' the air like a snake, or not, who knows, as she's not poking it out at anyone).
