Not the slayer you were expecting...

Slayers


    First of all, why are  your sound levels so messed up? Wisper dialog then blast explosions and dubstep to tell me a funny vampire story. Set your levels, bro!

    Billed as a horror comedy, it seems to be mostly satire. And that's fine, I like that. The story as follows: Streamers are invited to a jackass billionaire media & pharmaceutical kings home home for an interview or some such. However, Elliot Jones, bad-ass vampire hunter on a vendetta intercepts them and warns them it's a family of vampires. Naturally, they laugh him off, throw down a bunch of hash-tags and continue to be the most annoying people, road tripping to their doom. I'm completely OK with that. 

Shit! Wrong Slayers.

    The point of the meeting is for Billionaire is to offer the Barbie and Ken members of the Stream Team a job promoting their new perfect drug that prevents all disease.  However, not all is as it seems and the drug is actually a purifier for human blood, making it that much tastier for consumption.  OH, and they also want to do a body swap with the streamer couple ala FreeJack. I don't know what this movie needs more: Emilio Estevez or Mick Jagger. Anyhoo, it's up to (mostly) Elliot to save the day, kill vampires, and keep as many people alive as he can. Ehh...he did OK...there was a couple of survivors. Good enough. Most of them really had it coming anyway.

Shit! Wrong Thomas Jane. 
There's just no good gifs of this movie.

    While it's funny in a way, the youthy internet influencer angle is ran into the ground and tiresome after awhile. But...still maybe worth your time.
