Lord of Shadows (1989)

Thanks to John Cleveland on our Facebook group for introducing me to this. Lost very early Shot on Video home made horror. Basic plot is some kids find a Dracula..yeah not just a vampire but basically Dracula and when their parents don't believe them only their mustached adult friend Peter will help them. Classic old shot on video with very simple concepts and untrained actors giving it their all. The middle of the film seems to forget the kids as Peter gets others together to fight the vampire especially when he starts to make an army of slaves. They start to get the upper hand yet somehow the parents still don't believe as Dracula comes to attack the kids from getting away from him (luckily they sleep with loaves of garlic bread now). Late 80s cars and fashion make this basically home movie a great time capsule, even Peters mustache. Peters not give a shit attitude one second and super positive attitude the next is super funny especially when he gets religious in the later half of the movie and discovers vampire rules as if no one had ever done that before. This grainy warped VHS rip on YouTube is frustrating but I found it was from one of the last remaining tapes that the YouTuber fixed the audio issues but the visual tracking issues could not be fixed. Some of the tracking issues are on the original master tape as it warps everytime a scene cuts or changes which means it was recorded that way in many parts. A great home made diy film here made in a time when it meant something. Even though their Dracula is an even worse version of the Al Adamson Dracula and the night scenes are too dark to see anything, they are all still giving it in this list backyard project. Really what SOV was all about.
