'Blood Relatives' - Movie Review

Our lead is Francis (Noah Segan, also the director), a 100+ year-old Jewish vampire who has for decades travelled (alone) around the U.S. in his 1960s(?) muscle car. One day, Jane, a 15 year old girl (Victoria Moroles) tracks him down to tell him that he's her Dad, her mother is dead, and she has fangs.

And so we start a low key Horror-Comedy movie that's more about being family and dealing with family than it is about gore or shocks. Segan has some of the classic vampire behaviours (aversion to sunlight being the one he most clearly shows), but doesn't try to look or sound anything like what most of us "expect" a vampire to be. And Moroles is written as a confused teenager - the more so for having cravings no other teens have. It's slow-paced and short on jump scares (if that's what you're looking for), but it's funny, and a thoughtful take on a peculiar situation.
