But can Maddie stop this from happening? Or will Dustin end up dead? Knowing the secret, she is now put in danger. After a terrifying accident, she learns that her new neighbor, Damian, and his family are vampires. When new neighbors move into the creepy house next door, Maddie begins to become curious about them. But the problem is, Emily barely even has enough for herself. Something special about Emily's blood that has every vampire in the vicinity trying to steal it. So what happens when she somehow gets mixed up with the very creatures from her nightmares? When she's suddenly taken from her family because of something she had no control over? And there's something else.

Ever since she was little, the thought of vampires had sent her heart racing. The creatures that make up Emily Brown's worst fear. It's no classic, but it's mildly amusing.There are TWO separate stories under this story group! Overall, I'd recommend it if you can catch it on the cheap. It's kinda fun the first twenty times, but after that. As for the Raimi-esque POV shots, a little goes a long way - something that Scott Spiegel should have learned from the master. It's stuff like this which suggests the writers didn't know quite what they were doing. Adding the solar eclipse does nothing here. Which is another pointless plot point - if you want vampires to be in the darkness, just keep them in darkness and have the sun come up normally. The ending is just one big shootout, prolonged by a convenient solar eclipse. There is no real climax - the vampire bad guys are subsequently interchangeable, and the only really competent one (Jesus) gets killed before the formerly-dimwitted one. The writers seemed to have run out of ideas, and so we just get interminable variations on these two basic ideas. Once we get the first guy bit by a vampire, it moves along to 'vampires rob a bank' and 'vampires shoot it out with police.' But.that's really about it.

Like the original, it tries to stay 'reality' grounded as a caper flick, but given this is a shorter movie, this goes on _way_ too long before you actually get to vampires. The problem is that that's really all there is, and there's not much running track. It takes a basic ideas (vampires robbing a bank) and goes with it and runs. I only caught the 'edited' version on Sci-Fi Channel, but must admit that I found this to be a mildly entertaining film.
