Every day on his way home from school, Miguel notices a business that has closed. They're all boarded up, and have posters of businesses that will soon take over that space. Why are there so many businesses and people gone? Where did all of those people go?
Miguel figures out the horrible truth-that his neighborhood has been taken over by a pack of Vampires. What will become of Miguel and his friends? Can they save the neighborhood?
Told from Miguel's point of view, this is a Halloween movie for children. The Vampires aren't as scary as those in many other vampire movies. It's also not as graphic and bloody as vampire movies usually are. Adults will notice the film is a cautionary tale on gentrification and erasure of neighborhoods of people of color.
The perfect Halloween movie for families, or those who hate horror movies. Now streaming on Netflix, 2 stars.
