Welcome to Six Mile Hill, a quiet Irish village where the only claim to fame is the dubious legend that Bram Stoker once spent a night in the local pub. A group of road workers, led by a father and son who are constantly at each other's throats, must live through the night when they accidentally awaken an ancient Irish vampire. (Sitges Film Festival)

Ancient vampire Abhartach begins to terrorize a small Irish town. An enjoyable vampire horror comedy that had the potential to be much better, but despite slight disappointment, I am relatively satisfied. I liked the mythology surrounding the ancient vampire, older than Dracula, who has the power to suck blood from people from a distance, which is quite original. The characters are likeable, the humour works half the time, but there were a few moments to laugh. (“Did he try to bite you like a V..? Like a Cunt?”) and the gore was relatively restrained (except for a ripped-out heart and a severed leg) – although blood occasionally splatters, there is nothing explicitly graphic. I liked the soundtrack and the appearance of the vampire is also cool, although it is revealed only in the final minutes. For killing a boring evening, it is a likeable genre film. 6/10.
