"A true gem." -- Alternative Cinema Magazine

"Moody and gothic... one of the best independents to come along in a long while." -- Scary Monsters Magazine

"A winner in the strange world of low-budget filmmaking." -- Ultra Filmfax Magazine

A former police officer uncovers a pattern of strange disappearances and unsolved deaths in and around the Ironbound section of Newark, New Jersey. The crimes all seem to involve a mysterious man named Thomas whose background is shrouded in the occult.

Thomas, a soldier during World War I, had been shot in battle and was close to death when he was carried away in the arms of a cloaked stranger. The stranger gives him a new "life" as one of the undead. Upon Thomas' return to America, a bloody plague of death begins to spread. The elusive Thomas and his naked vampire brides cannot be stopped from torturing the innocent townsfolk. A beautiful female vampire-killer is out to destroy the blood-sucked and his cult as the list of victims continues to grow.

The Ironbound Vampire is an ambitious underground production that has the feel of a modern-day Edward D. Wood, Jr. movies, and features special guest appearances by Wood cast veterans Dolores Fuller (Glen or Glenda?) and Conrad Brooks (Plan 9 From Outer Space). Contains nudity.

Product Description:
