Six Mile Hill is a small Irish town. Local legend has a vampire named Abhartach buried under a pile of rocks. He is supposed to be the inspiration for Bram Stoker's Dracula. Eugene Moffat and William Bogue are screw-up best friends who spend their time drinking at the local pub, The Stroker. Eugene's father is allowing the bypass onto his land and intends to knock down the burial rocks without telling his neighbors. One night, the boys are drunk and a boar kills William spilling his blood. Soon, Abhartach is released and the town is in danger.

This is a nice little vampire indie. It's rewriting the vampire lore and I like it. It has some fun with the well known story. While it writes new rules, they are a bit murky. It's a minor issue but some clarification would be helpful. It's really nice when an indie does something new with old material and it does it well.

The end credits are not really shining a light on that one - even if the estate of Stoker had no involvement here, it doesn't mean he might not find it at least appealing or interesting what is being done here. On the other hand, fans either go with the flow or may be offended on how things are depicted here.

And a Netflix show recently did quite an awesome job with a similar "bloody" theme, but more church related. Won't spoil the name of the show just in case, but those who have seen or are interested, Mike Flanagan was responsible for it.

But back to this, that takes many myths and just smashes them - there is a lot of things that just don't work. There are other things that are not even being tried ... but that is easier said than done, when you fight for your life or when you just sit in a cinema seat and "complain" about what the movie or the characters could have done differently.

One thing that you could blame the movie doing, is how it conveniently bleeds some out and kind of lets our main character do their thing ... on the other hand, we wouldn't be having much of a movie, if that weren't the case, now would we?

The film takes place in the small Irish town of Six Mile Hill, the alleged home of Bram Stoker. There is a bar there that bares his name. The main town attraction is the local cairn, a pile of rocks that claims to have the Abhartach buried there, a blood drinking creature Stoker based his legend upon. The story center of Eugene Moffat (Jack Rowan) whose job is to take down the stones for the new bypass which would free the Abhartach.

The film is a comedy horror. SP (Michael Hough) added a bit of humor to the feature.
