The whole thing races by with a few laughs and a few scares, and a worthy gentrification theme, making it easy to recommend for genre fans.

| Original Score: 3/4 | Feb 17, 2022

Vampires vs. the Bronx is a hilariously familiar good time.

| Sep 25, 2021

Vampires Vs. The Bronx is a perfect low-stakes horror that pokes fun at the extinction so many communities are facing right now in major cities, but it's also just a super fun vampire flick.

| Original Score: 7/10 | Mar 1, 2021

Young Afro-Latinos Shine in

| Original Score: 7/10 | Feb 10, 2021

The story isn't just a vampire story, although there's fangs and stakes and blood. It's more about the trio of charismatic kids who become heroes to protect something they really believe in.

| Original Score: 4/5 | Jan 29, 2021

...Vampires vs. The Bronx is both an entertaining horror-comedy and a clever commentary on whitewashing and gentrification.

| Original Score: 7/10 | Jan 15, 2021

Who would have thought with a title like that this would be a decent film!

| Original Score: B | Dec 16, 2020

The non-elaborate scenarios and relaxed posture generate a likable indie flavor...

| Original Score: 3/5 | Nov 19, 2020

A formulaic story with a refreshing cultural lens and social commentary.....A Latinx household is fully equipped for a possible vampire invasion.

| Original Score: 3.5 | Nov 18, 2020

Vampires vs. The Bronx is a refreshing take on vampire lore, using it as a means to highlight the horrors of gentrification.

| Nov 16, 2020

A fun but slight horror-comedy that doesn't do much with its biting metaphor for urban gentrification.

| Original Score: C+ | Nov 3, 2020

It wasn't painful, but I had high expectations...the jokes that did hit made me laugh...

| Original Score: 2/5 | Oct 28, 2020

It exceeded my expectations...fun and short...

| Original Score: 3/5 | Oct 28, 2020

There's a comfortable, familiar, save-the-old-community-centre spirit about this movie.

| Oct 28, 2020

Teens protect their neighborhood; violence, language.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Oct 28, 2020

You don't have to be a bloodsucking junkie to enjoy Vampires vs. The Bronx. You just need to be ready for some creepy fun.

| Oct 27, 2020

For all its vampiric snarling and slightly cheesy 1990s special effects there's no bloodletting at all in this nippy, sprightly little film that stars a great young cast of unknowns and plays gamely with all the familiar tropes of the vampire genre.

| Original Score: 4/5 | Oct 26, 2020

It's a Bronx-bred slice of socially conscious horror that also doubles as gateway horror for younger genre fans in training. Owns its bodega-hangout roots.

| Original Score: 3.5/5 | Oct 26, 2020

Vampires against the Bronx isn't bad.... [but] that's not enough, in the end there is almost nothing left from the less than hour and a half that was worth remembering. [Full review in Spanish]

| Oct 19, 2020

A wonderful juvenile horror film. [Full Review in Spanish]

| Original Score: 3/5 | Oct 19, 2020
