The Wicked ★ Outback Vampires 1989

Though packaged as serious horror, this is a cheap, tacky spoof with folks stranded at the country residence of a vampire family. Sole point of interest: these Transylvanian cliches take place in the Australian outback. Kids might actually like this (gore isn't severe), if they can surmount the thick Down Under accents. 87m/C VHS, DVD . Brett Cumo, Richard Morgan, Angela Kennedy, Maggie Blinco, John (Roy Slaven) Doyle; D: Colin Eggleston.
