The movie
Always beware of urban legends. Those workers should have heeded the warning: they’ve just awakened the local vampire and are going to pay for it with their blood! En savoir plus
Welcome to the quiet little country town of Six Mile Hill, where curious tourists visit the tomb of Abhartach, a legendary vampire from Ireland. This is where Eugene and his friends grew up, drinking beer and exploiting the tourists’ naivety to con them. One day, they accidentally destroy a famous cairn, and understand that you’re better off not making fun of some legends. The ancient, blood-thirsty vampire must however contend with exceptionally phlegmatic preys. A hilarious reimagining of old Irish myths that both honours and pokes fun at them.
