Our take

We all know house-sharing can be a nightmare, but what if your flatmates are also undead? From Flight of the Conchords’s Jemaine Clement and Taika Waititi comes this vampire mockumentary with a dark sense of humour that’s perfect for Halloween. Think New Zealand’s Spinal Tap, but with ghouls!
