Blood Ties - Moto Movie Review
A KKK-like group is hunting vampires, and the vam... Carpathians, are just fighting to survive and enjoy the 1980s with their motorcycle gang in this Lost Boys knock off. This made for TV, cheesy biker/vampire film is more enjoyable than it has any right to be, and seems as if it might have been a failed pilot for a weekly series, but it's getting reviewed anyway, so here goes... The shoulder pads in 80s suits are pretty much the same as the approved motorcycle armor by the EEC.Blood Ties is a cross between Lost Boys and Kolchak: The Night Stalker, and is just as much fun to watch as either of them. It doesn't quite qualify as a horror movie, or a comedy, but there are funny moments, and it does involve a multi-generational family of blood suckers from Carpathia. The older Carpathians are well-off men in the business world, while the younger generation are a hell raising motorcycle gang who call themselves the The Shrikes. The story starts when a young man named Cody travels to the city to find his distant relations, after his parents were killed by the Southern Coalition Against Vampirism. Be afraid of the neck beard and a bug-eye man in a windowless van...It seems the Carpathian American diaspora in Long Beach, CA are actually undead blood suckers (they consider vampire to be a racial slur). They are not immortal, per se, but they do live to 150 years old, are 20-30% stronger than normal humans, and prefer the night. They heal much faster than normal humans, and the preferred method of killing them is a stake through the heart, though as Harry says, getting hit by a bus would probably do it too. Still, the Shrikes ride as if the only way they are going to die is in a freak accident with a picket fence. If you dare to eneter, you can watch the full movie below... More from RideApart:
