Programmer's Pick

If you like your vampires with a pompadour and a sense of humor, Rockabilly Vampire delivers a cheeky send-up of horror and rock 'n' roll culture. It's a mash-up that doesn't take itself seriously, and neither should you.

Overview

Rockabilly Vampire blends parody, horror, and comedy in a quirky independent package. The story centers on Emma, an Elvis-obsessed woman whose daily struggles—from a frustrating job to an unpleasant landlord and his equally disagreeable son—leave her searching for escape. Fate intervenes when she meets Wrecks Vincent, a mysterious stranger who looks and dresses exactly like Elvis Presley. Smitten, Emma is swept up in a whirlwind of rockabilly romance, but she remains unaware that her new love interest harbors a supernatural secret: he's a vampire. With voodoo and greaser style in the mix, this film spoofs horror tropes while channeling 1950s nostalgia through a uniquely offbeat lens.
