Similar
to other Vampire films like Count
Yorga
(reviewed elsewhere on this site), director David Dietz's ultra low
budget horror film Indemnity:
Rage of a Jealous Vampire
is an interestingly shot, yet quite short (60 minutes) attempt at the
genre. Not particularly gory and with hit or miss acting, this indie
film is worth a look if you are a vampire film watcher or a fan of
low budget films.
A
man on the run from his ex-lover, who has sworn to kill him, takes
refuge in a rural bar, where he finds an unlikely ally in the local
bartender. As the man (Dietz) opens up to the bartender over many
rounds, the bartender - who is battling demons of his own - begins to
wonder if the man is merely a victim of circumstance... or if he's
hiding a much darker secret.
Simply
put, the 1.78 X 1 transfer on the film is unfortunately horrid, with
grainy noise and dark colors and a letterboxed presentation, which is
a shame because the film is shot interestingly with color emphases
and a new transfer would yield better results. A lossy Dolby Digital
2.0 track backs this up with stereo sound, but could also benefit
from an upgrade that would also bring out better results.
Extras
are the real highlight here including Deleted Scenes, Behind The
Scenes, Slideshow, a trailer, and Shade's
Last Run
(a 20 minute black and white short).
As
noted above, you can catch the film via Amazon at this link...
