What We Do in the Shadows
What We Do in the Shadows
Jemaine Clement & Taika Waititi | New Zealand 2014
Deep in the heart of Wellington, New Zealand, lies a house like many others, but within lives a group of housemates unlike you've seen. Join a documentary crew as they are given unparalleled access into the lives of a posse of vampires — the sweet Viago (Waititi), bad boy Deacon (Jonathan Brugh), the lust-filled Vladislav (Clement) and the 8,000-year-old Petyr (Ben Fransham) — as they quarrel over dirty dishes, discuss fashion and hit the party circuit. When Petyr turns hipster Nick (Cori Gonzales Macuer) into a vamp, the guys must show him the ropes — and rules — of eternal life. Grab your garlic and wear your crucifix, What We Do in the Shadows is a dark — and deadly funny — romp with the undead.
