Review Summaries
"A mother and her two kids move to Santa Carla, Californian to live with their grandfather after their mother gets a divorce. The oldest son meets some teenage rebels and begins to hang out with them. They turn out to be vampires and they turn him into one. Now his brother and two of his new friends must save the town by destroying the head vampire and turning all the half-vamps (including his brother) back into humans."
Jack Bauer, Resident Scholar

"Michael, his brother Sam, and their mom move to Santa Clara because the brothers' grandfather lives there. On the boardwalk, Sam finds a comic shop where the owners are really vampire hunters, and Michael finds a girl named Star, who's in a motorcycle group. Michael is willing to do anything to get Star to like him, including racing the group to their lair. A few mindtricks later, Michael is given a bottle of vampire blood to drink, only he thinks its wine so he drinks it. The follow day, he starts to change, to Sam's horror, though he tries to resist becoming a vampire. Sam, the comic store owners, Michael and Star - also trying to resist becoming a vampire - have to hunt down the head vampire before Michael and Star's resistance fails. "
