Plot Summary, Synopsis, Review: IMDb - allmovie.com - flixster.com - cinemarx.ro - rottentomatoes.com - latelanera.com - hometheaterinfo.com: «The film begins with a pounding heavy metal beat and the camera taking a first person point of view ride through the barren tress in a forest. This technique has been over used of late but Shell is still on the learning curve and maturing as a director so he can be forgiven. We come to a frat house where the guys are busy with their beer bong. The house is lit in blues and reds adding an interesting contrast to the surrounding set. A pretty young woman, Laurie (Stephanie Lemelin) runs out and pulls down an election poster for Jason Pierce (Nick Holmes) who is hot pursuit of the girl. She is upset that she saw him with another girl. He was trying the old ‘just friends’ line but Laurie notes his hand was up her shirt. Jason is a first class jerk who finally tells Laurie that he acts only on what feels good. Suddenly a vampire bursts on the scene, Bites Jason turning him into one and sets him upon Laurie. All of this is just the setup to the main event. Will (A.J. Draven) is a hippie type who rooms with a ROTC student Rico (Owiso Odera). Rico is always riding Will about his failure with women and catches some grief from his ROTC buddies about rooming with the likes of Will. When Will is bitten by a vampire he winds up in the middle of an ancient war between the vampire covens and a group called Sentries who are sworn to eliminate vampires. Will has to come to grips with the changes that are going on and his place in the world he was forced to be part of».
