This film essentially begins with an artist by the name of "Teresa Jennings" (Stacey Travis) showing off some of her recent work at a gallery when she meets a young man by the name of "Vlad" (Christopher Atkins) who she seems to have an immediate connection with. Not long afterward she receives an invitation from a mysterious man named "Alec" (Doug Wert) to travel to Europe to help restore an extremely old painting from the renaissance. Eager for such an opportunity she accepts immediately and upon traveling to the monastery where the painting is kept she not only meets Alec-but Vlad as well. Yet even though she is happy to reuinite with Vlad she gets the feeling that something is not quite right-and then the horrors begin. Now rather than reveal any more I will just say that this was a very poor low-budget vampire movie which suffered from bad acting and an even worse script. In addition to that I thought that Christopher Atkins was terribly miscast for his particular role as well. That being said, I have few positive things to say about this film and for that reason I have rated it accordingly.
