In a world where vampire blood is harvested as a drug, two teenagers on the run from a dealer break into a house to find a girl locked inside.
This deconstructed Bloodsucker movie doubles as a grim analysis of substance dependency and its devastating blast radius. Sweating with the desperation of addiction and featuring a morally heinous villain for the ages, you won’t have seen a vampire film like it. BLEEDING producer Nicholas Santos thinks Grimmfest has described it perfectly: Raw. Authentic. Horrifying - The People’s Movies

While on Christmas vacation, Ashley tells her boyfriend Sam that she hopes to tie the knot and start a family, a thought that terrifies Sam. When the attractive and seemingly omnipresent Nolan shows up and alludes to potentially violent ties to Sam’s past, Sam’s world begins to close in around him in terrifying ways.
In his debut as a feature writer/director, Nicholas Santos demonstrates a sure hand at melding disparate tones. Utilizing deft transitions and long takes that allow the cast’s banter to flow naturally, he crafts a portrait of a couple on some very jagged rocks. Gould and Jackson have great anti-chemistry, while Anderson keeps us guessing as to whether his threat is real or a figment of Sam’s mind. Kyle I. Kelley’s inviting cinematography of the Cape Cod locations seamlessly incorporates odd and unsettling details (such as a freaky outdoor Christmas display), complementing a movie in which troubled romance seems consistently on the verge of turning into something bloodcurdling.
