Dorathen Better Late Then Never
Beystiman It's fun, it's light, [but] it has a hard time when its tries to get heavy.
Lidia Draper Great example of an old-fashioned, pure-at-heart escapist event movie that doesn't pretend to be anything that it's not and has boat loads of fun being its own ludicrous self.
Bob This is one of the best movies I’ve seen in a very long time. You have to go and see this on the big screen.
Woodyanders Foul-mouthed spitfire Carrie (a winningly sassy and zesty performance by the insanely foxy Robin Gierhart), her hopelessly meek dork boyfriend Sam (amiable Nate Rubin), and Sam's surly bad boy buddy Bone (a nicely swaggering portrayal by Deva George) are all en route to a rock concert. During their road trip the trio get lost and find themselves stuck in a remote podunk town populated by ferocious, but slow-witted hick vampires. Directors Blair Rowan and Barak Epstein, working from a gloriously rude'n'crude script by Rowan and Chris Gardner, do a bang-up job with the infectiously loopy material: The hilariously profane dialogue, colorfully broad redneck characters, the blithely inane jokes, and the teeming surplus of wild over-the-top gore all add up to one immensely entertaining and often sidesplitting romp. Moreover, it's acted with tremendous zeal by an enthusiastic cast: Tony Medlin as wacko survivalist Byron, Laura Stone as bawdy and aggressively lascivious whitetrash slut Lynette, Chris Gardner as smarmy and spineless jerk Roy, Richard L. Olsen as flaky hillbilly Old Zeke, and Nicholas Brendon as chipper vampire yuppie opportunist Chase Sinclair. Tom Towles (Otis in "Henry: Portrait of a Serial Killer") has a cool and funny small part as smooth bloodsucker lawyer Loius Debois. Both Clay Liford's sharp cinematography and the lively score by Paul Nichols are up to speed. An absolute hoot.
rdjmyspace I saw this movie at AFI Dallas last year. I laughed my ass off. The writing was fantastic. If you like B movie horror and fast paced comedy you will love this movie. The scene where the vampire clerk (Barak Epstein)who is at first mistaken for an average pot head attacks Nate Rubin's character and gets stuck; has to be one of the most original and funny things I have ever scene. I liked it so much I sought out it's director to buy an advance copy. I have watched it at least a dozen times since. Blood On the Highway is a non stop laugh aroma. Do not watch it while drinking milk unless you like to shoot it through your nose.
jcorty28 Blood on The Highway is a completely original, high-spirited, horror-action, comedy romp. Don't mind the review below. This movie is just balls to the wall good fun.When a group of friends get into trouble on a road trip, they find themselves stuck between a rock and a hard place. Namely, they're surrounded by scores of vampires in the small town of Fate, TX. They have a few advantages: their resourceful and reckless friend Bone and the fact that these vampires are completely inept. Not too mention they are powered by some of the most amazing one liners ever committed to film.Featuring hilarious performances, including that of the legendary Tom Towles (Henry:Portrait of a Serial Killer, Night of The Living Dead '90), Blood on The Highway is a guaranteed good time. Do yourself a favor and check it out.
toronaga Just saw this one off cable PPV. Another one of those cheesy horror movies I assumed. This one was priceless! I would have to watch this movie more than once to get all the jokes. The dialog was absolutely hilarious and you have to listen carefully to hear it all. It starts really going once they get to "Housechusetts" or whatever it is. The sex-related jokes had me almost in tears.Oh yeah, also loved the "town meeting" of vampires. And the "veiled" Wal-Mart commentary.The actors did a great job and probably took a lot of showers during the making of this movie. But the WRITING was what made this film really shine. I will watch for more from these people, they are going to make it big in Hollywood some day. They certainly deserve it.
