Synopsis:

The townsfolk of Purgatory are mean and ornery for one very good reason – they’re vampires! Hidden away in their secret community, they come out at night and feast with gusto! Now the Harrisons, an unsuspecting family from “outside”, have ventured into Purgatory. They may be alright – they may be dinner.

Count Mardulak, the ruler of the vampires, has ended their tradition of human bloodletting. Now the vampires get their fix from synthetic bottled blood, a drink so distasteful, it’s making the natives crave the “real thing”. Rebel leader Shane would rather take a bite out of the lovely Sarah Harrison.

Shane and his violent army plans to overthrow the Count – but it won’t be without a fight. So the battle begins for the “right to bite” – it all starts at SUNDOWN.
