Why it’s a Monday Morning Maybe

With a box office flop and almost no lasting buzz, this one could be a tough watch. Keep your phone handy.

Based on critics, audiences, awards, box office and buzz. Details below.

Is it for you?

Who'll love it
One for anyone who likes their romance with a bite and horror fans. Vampire lore, given its own spin. If you loved Nosferatu or Dracula, start here.
The mood
Scary.
The pace
Tense from early on, at 40 min. An easy one to fit in on a school night.
What might put you off
Skip it if you scare easily or watch alone at night.

A series of "vampire" style murders on campus has Sarah scared of her own shadow - It doesn't help that her new dorm mate Lilith wears only gothic clothing, is afraid of crosses, avoids daylight and resembles a member of the undead. Sarah becomes convinced that Lilith has something to do with the horrendous murders. When Sarah can't convince others of her outlandish theory...she becomes the next target.
