There is a place between the living and the dead... and it's open 24 hours
In 1994, in Toronto, the vampire Boya awakens from his twenty-five years of sleep in a basement hit by a golf ball. He takes a cab to the local cemetery, retrieves his belongings from a grave and lodges in a low budget hotel nearby an all-night donut shop. Boya does not drink human blood anymore but rats and pigeons blood instead. While in the donut shop, Boya befriends and protects the taxi driver Earl, who is having trouble with two criminals, and falls in love for the waitress Molly. Meanwhile, his former passion of 1969, Rita, who misses her lost youth, is trying to locate him.

Not funny, badly dated, weird accents, and a 10 minute story. Disappointing
So, this is a horror comedy, that is light on both horror and comedy. If anything, I would just call this a cult movie about a vampire - either you know what that means or you don't. The story is paper thin, but that's fine. What matters is our trio of characters: Molly, Earl, and Boya. Boya is our vampire, who looks more like a strung-out rockstar and less a vampire. Earl - who sounds like Christopher Walken, for some reason - is a cabbie, who is mixed up with a group of gangsters. Molly works at a doughnut shop. That's it. That's all she really does. I can see some _Crow_ (1994) influence here, only as a low-budget cult movie. The movie is pretty short and sweet. Doesn't spend any time with backstory, we're just dropped into the world and it works. A personal highlight for me was the maestro, David Cronenberg, playing the lead gangster. So cool that he would just pop up in a little no-budget horror movie. There is a post-credit scene, so stick around for that.
