Mitternachtszirkus - Willkommen in der Welt der Vampire (2009)
AbenteuerFantasyActionThriller
Darren und Steve sind nicht zuletzt deswegen Freunde, weil sie beide die Vorliebe für Horrorgeschichten aller Art eint. So kommt der düstere itternachtszirkus „Cirque du Freak“ wie gerufen. Die beiden schleichen sich eine Mitternachtsvorstellung, wo sie die seltsamsten und absonderlichsten Künstler sehen. Den Spinnenbeschwörer jedoch, der durch den Abend führt, identifiziert Steve als Larten Crepsley - und als Vampir. Begeistert bewirbt sich Steve als Assistent bei Crepsley, doch der wählt Darren, der sich nach kurzer Bedenkzeit tatsächlich zum Halbvampir machen läßt. Doch damit fängt nicht nur der Spaß an, denn Steve ist mehr als erbost über die Zurückweisung und Darren erfährt von einem Konflikt zwischen zwei Arten von Vampiren, denen die ihre Opfer töten und diejenigen, die nur von ihnen trinken. Und er spielt eine Rolle in diesem Konflikt...
