| Source of story |
An original screenplay – to be followed by sequels, although it was claimed by White Wolf Inc that it was based on one of their published short stories. |
| Elevator Pitch |
Not quite out of sight of the human population, vampires and werewolves fight it out using modern weapons in a European city, and things come to a head when both sides track a unique human who may hold the secret of their futures. |
| Content |
Almost continuous battles using handguns, machine guns and edged weapons. The heroine – if that is what she is – fetchingly attired in black latex. Lots of blood and gore |
| A View |
Even if you watch this very closely it is still difficult to distinguish one side from the other, and sometimes why particularly violent events have occurred. Tiring in the end. |
