Hemo is a smart, scary, sexy vampire movie that will take you by surprise
Vampires are sexy. This is the new paradigm of the world of contemporary horror fiction. We no longer live in a world where vampires are vicious monsters who want nothing more than to suck our blood--rather, our world is one where vampires crave love, experience lust, and...still want to suck our blood. Critics may wail and moan about this new turn in vampire lore, but the appeal and potential dimensions which the "vampires-are-sexy" trend has to offer cannot be denied. In the best case scenario, we get movies like Hemo, a little-known indie horror gem from 2010, which takes this common twist in vampire lore, adds a few fresh ones to the mix, and serves it up in a film which is scary, sexy, smart and very entertaining.
Hemo is the story of a group of modern-day vampires who, after being turned away from local blood banks, are forced to resort to murder in order to get their fix. That's all that should really be said about the movie, because to say any more would diminish...
