★★★
This low-budget indie is like 2020's answer to The Monster Squad. Three pubescent friends discover that vampires have moved into their neighborhood but how do you convince everyone else of a such a ludicrous reality?
There are some funny set pieces, some predictable jump scares, and the ambition of Act 3 only highlights how low their budget had to be. Some recognizable faces are sprinkled in (Alias Grace's Gadon, Joker's Whigham, SNL's Redd, a Zoe Saldana cameo, etc.)
It's 89% on RottenTomatoes, but I think it's really more of a 70% quality. I'd be interested in what teens think of it.
