Trama e commenti: mymovies.it - movieplayer.it - filmtv.it - movietele.it - horrordapaura.forumfree.it - splattercontainer.com: «Wayne Gretzky è un vampiro a cui non crescono più i classici canini. E' un problema che si porta dietro da anni, 300 per la precisione, da quando cioè, inavvertitamente, uccise la sua amata Mary Lipinsky. Giunto ovviamente immortale ai giorni nostri, il buon Gretzky ora insegna storia (chi meglio di lui) in un college, dove ha stretto una profonda amicizia con un suo collega, il Dottor Levin, al quale ha confidato il suo segreto cercando inutilmente di risolvere insieme questo problema. I tempi bui sembrano improvvisamente sparire quando, per il nuovo semestre, arriva la bellissima Chris Keller, la copia esatta della sua amata Mary. Fra quest'ultima e Wayne nasce subito qualcosa di speciale, ma l'imprevisto è sempre in agguato: il suo istinto da succhiasangue prenderà dopo secoli il sopravvento, mordendo con i rinati canini il collo della fanciulla. Anche lei ora è un vampiro ma la sua indole è di tutt'altra natura rispetto a quella del tranquillo Wayne. Chris è infatti diventata una divoratrice di esseri umani, pertanto il professor Gretzky dovrà al più presto fermare questo bagno di sangue uccidendo, per la seconda volta, la sua dolce metà».

Plot Summary, Synopsis, Review: IMDb - taliesinttlg.blogspot.it - allrovi.com - muzemagazine.com - kickstarter.com - joblo.com - facebook.com - horror-asylum.com - horrornews.net - abandomoviez.net - kicktraq.com - rottentomatoes.com - deadfilm.net: «The movie follows college history professor Wayne Gretzky (played by Adam Johnson) who happens to be a centuries-old vampire. He is also impotent, but not in the traditional human way. Ever since he accidentally killed the love of his life, his fangs won’t grow and he must feast on the blood of slaughtered animalsl. He confides in the college psychologist (played hilariously by Gary Cole) and soon discovers that Chris Keller, one of his students, is (as the psychologist puts it) his vampire viagra and makes his fangs grow. In a fit of confusion, he turns her into a vampire and finds that she enjoys killing/turning people a little too much. So it’s up to Dr. Gretzky, two of his students (one of which is played by Maclain Nelson, also from ORCS), and a someone from his past, to take down Chris before she turns everyone in the town into vampires. The cast all put in great performances. Gary Cole is hilarious, Adam Johnson is charming enough to make you care about his character (even though he is a blood-sucking killer), and the rest of the cast is good as well. I can’t think of a single person who wavered or put in a subpar performance. The comedic timing was also perfect. So many great jokes completely hit their marks. One running gag involving a guitar got me laughing every time, and it was one of many spots in Dr. Limptooth where the audience and I burst out laughing. This movie is simply a blast from start to finish. It has the feel of a good indie comedy mixed with the charm of a vampire movie. It’s original and they do follow the standard vampire rules, which is nice to see since most of the new movies involve sparkly vegetarian vampires. If I have any complaint, it was that I wanted to see one or two more scenes to close it off, particularly a plot thread involving Gary Cole’s character. Still, this movie is awesome and I absolutely loved it!».
