There were times I actually laughed in this movie. Not because it was funny. Only because the dialogue was laughably ridiculous.
Also, just because one of the characters in a movie is gay, even if he is a main character, it doesn't qualify it as a gay film. Unless there is a romance, a coming out and coming to terms, or some other gay theme, it's just a movie with a gay character.

Despite the review of this film on IMDB it does actually have a story line that although corny does make sense. A vampire king dies in battle and is reincarnated 200 years later in the body of a gay loser. His two faithful companions have searched for him through the centuries and now have to convince him to accept his heritage and save the vampire race from the brink of extinction.
What lets this movie down is its writer and star Martin Yurkovic who initially plays his role as a bitchy gay queen so over the top that he can't redeem it later in the film. The part requires some degree of sympathy for the character but he blows it away and even his musical number which was actually quite good doesn't save him.
In contrast the female lead played by Dreama Walker is cute and funny and although too prone to use of the 'F' word is an appealing character. Credit also to the female vampire played by Bonnie Swencionis who also has some good moments.
I'm guessing this is meant to be a black comedy but it isn't funny enough to qualify as a comedy or horrific enough to go the other way.
I bought it for my vampire collection but probably won't watch it again.

The basic premise being that a vampire king after days of battle with a mortal priest, succumbs to his wounds but vows to reincarnate. His two faithful servants spend the next 200 years attempting to find him, until doing so in the body of a gay man.
That's about as interesting as things get, as the movie transcends into a hapless adventure, poorly portrayed and somewhat farcical even for its genre. Vampire 'purists' will loathe this film, and in particular the choreographed musical interlude which has the audience standing and singing along with the reborn vampire king.
Whilst there are moments which are humorous and well considered, with some delightful condescension displayed by the vampire king, I was not enamoured either the story or the actors. At times I found myself wandering how longer the movie would be.
