Verdict on Bordello of Blood
Bordello of Blood is a horror comedy following vampires operating in a whorehouse. However, when they take a local, his sister comes searching for her teaming up with a local private investigator. It follows them trying to maintain control, while the private investigator looks to eliminate them all.
This is a movie that fits into the Tales from the Crypt universe it is taken from, giving us a feature length version. It gets to have fun with the vampires in the modern world concept. This fits the 90s style of horror comedy, with certain traits which have become dated now. It creates enough of a mystery to help the story unfold well.
