A deadpan, low-key vampire comedy in tune with Only Lovers Left Alive and What We Do in the Shadows, HUMANIST VAMPIRE follows what happens when a young bloodsucker too compassionate to kill meets a teenager who just wants to die.
“At its heart, Louis-Seize’s film is a mordant hymn to teenage angst and the powerful feeling of finally connecting with someone who really gets you.” – RogerEbert.com
“Neatly knits together its darkest elements with threads of whimsy, humor, and tremulous romance to create a vampire tale that is uniquely thrilling and a bloody good time.” – Mashable
