There's no need to bury the lede on my opinion of Sundown: The Vampire in Retreat. I hated it. The story is baffling. Pieces of it could have been interesting if they chose to show us things vs. an info dump in the opening text full of gobbledygook. The music felt out of place. I couldn't point to any of the acting that I appreciated. This really surprised me, since it does have Bruce Campbell. His role serves no purpose to the story and could have been cut with no consequence. Then we have David Carradine who claims to be the 'greatest vampire of all time,' and again the movie shows us absolutely nothing to back this up. Ultimately, this just seemed to be incompetently made. I really thought it was terrible.

On the lower end of mediocre. I guess I would expect more entertainment from a film with a cast like Bruce Campbell and David Carradine. I chuckled a few times but a good amount of the humor fell flat for me.

_Sundown_ definitely gets points for being one of the most original vampire movies I have ever seen: vampire western comedy.
The movie is good, but I didn't particularly like it. What that means is all the elements are there, however there is a balancing act that is failing to find a proper footing More
