Follow the lives of vampire housemates (Jemaine Clement, Taika Waititi, Jonathan Brugh) who are just trying to get by and overcome life’s obstacles—like being immortal vampires who must feast on human blood. Hundreds of years old, the vampires are finding that beyond sunlight catastrophes, hitting the main artery, and not being able to get a sense of their wardrobe without a reflection, modern society has them struggling with the mundane like paying rent, keeping up with the chore wheel, trying to get into nightclubs, and overcoming flatmate conflicts.

Music + live performance by Anju Singh begins at 7pm
Film starts at 9:15pm
