"Stu is the first human friend that I've had for a long time. With humans there's a tendency to die." What We Do In The Shadows is a vampire mockumentary that has been making the festival rounds and those in the UK will be able to watch it on November 21st. We have a new clip from the film that shows the human Stu exposing the centuries-old vampires to cameras, computers, and other technologies.
“Diving deep into the throes of vampire life in New Zealand, What We Do In The Shadowsintroduces us to age-old vampire flatmates Vladislav (862 years old, played by Clement) Viago (379 years old, played by Waititi), Deacon (183 years old) and Petyr (8,000 years old). Stuck in their antiquated ways, they struggle to adjust to 21st century customs, like paying rent, sharing household chores and getting expressly invited into nightclubs. Enter 20-something hipster Nick, who Petyr turns to get an inside education on the modern world. What follows includes a whole lot of discovery: from fashion to technology and even a little feeling — all laced in continuous hilarity, of course.”
What We Do in the Shadows stars Taika Waititi (Boy, Eagle vs Shark), Jemaine Clement (Flight of the Conchords), Rhys Darby, Jonathan Brugh, Cori Gonzalez-Macuer, Stuart Rutherford and Jackie van Beek. We’ll let Daily Dead readers know as soon as a US release date is announced.
