What We Do in the Shadows 2014

Our Take (by Diarmaid & Laurie Cromie)

Deadpan comedy styled as a mockumentary, following four flatmates who happen to be vampires. They range in ages from 183 to 8000, and spend their nights trying to adapt to modern day living, eating,   reminiscing about old times, and solving the problems that come with every shared flat. It is filmed in a fake documentary style similar to The Office, with one-on-one interviews interspersed into the film. From the creators of Flight Of The Conchords and Boy, it is a truly great, hilarious comedy that you will not want to miss!

Notable Critics

"I found myself cackling at "What We Do in the Shadows" like a witch with a helium balloon."

— Anthony Lane

""What We Do in the Shadows" is an irrepressibly charming B-movie that never over-stays its welcome, and is both conceptually clever and admirably well-executed."

— Simon Abrams

Synopsis
