This is the second movie I’ve seen this October where I’m shocked Terry Kiser was in it. Anyway, uh, yeah, bad movie! I SWORE it was like from 2006 but nope, apparently it’s from 2013, could’ve fooled me!
A bus filled with barely fleshed out characters gets sidelined by a vampiric biker gang led by Wade (Sticky Fingaz), as the Vampire Riderz seek the Day Walker among them for the necessary half-millennial sacrifice to re-up the vampire's lease on extended life. A pair of vampire hunting brothers (Walter Jones & Smalls) join the party as, at about an hour in, the movie decides its time for some semblance of world building to pad out the runtime to a cool 80 minutes. A fairly long 80 minutes...
Vampire Riderz reminds me of Exit Speed, a rarely viewed, but enjoyable, bus siege film also available on Tubi. This version is a lot dumber and less successful at being a film, though.…
"I'm found mid-sacrifice every time!"
I genuinely forgot everything that happened in this movie the second it ended. It follows a pretty basic "hunt-down-the-chosen-one" plot where the chosen heroine finds out the world is much different than she had thought, but she's a daywalker and there are vampire hunters and a vampire lord out to get her. That probably makes no sense, but it made sense as the movie was playing.
This looks like a straight-to-tv dumpster fire, and it's paced, acted, and edited like one too. I was half expecting Tide ads to start playing mid-movie. I love vampires and urban fantasy, but this is a time-waster and not much else.
Some of the literal nonsense in here is fun, but mostly this is cheaply made and unimaginative.
Still very happy that I got like 15 people to watch this with me.

RedLetterMedia Best of the Worst
i went in really hoping for something entertaining. from what i had seen in previews it looked hilarious, but instead it's pretty boring all the way through and the funny moments are few in far between.
it's not funny in an "it's so bad" sort of way either. it's just another horror film where you sit all the way through like .___.
Found on Tubi. Oh why do I try and keep up with RedLetterMedia, this film was absolutely lifeless and devoid of any reason to watch it except that it had Councillor Troy from Star Trek Next Gen in it. Bad stuff, the colour palette and lighting choices made it look like there were two films splurged together as well. Hard work & I couldn't even make it to the end.
Vampire Riderz is a mixed bag of enjoyable schlock and a head-scratchingly convoluted and tonally inconsistent plot that far too often meanders. It takes itself far more seriously than one would expect, and really more than it should with a title that replaces an S with a Z.
Surprisingly, the film does feature a solid cast, for what it is, but that element actually makes the movie all the more confounding. How did these actors get involved with what is clearly a very low budget production, and seemingly from a director who has only one other directing credit (per IMDb)?
A little research revealed that Vampire Bikerz was directed by Dan Garcia under the alias Cardinal Lamberto. Garcia has a…
I was almost embarrassed to watch this movie just because of the title. Seriously, no one could come up with a better title than this? The story has to do with vampires that mostly use motorcycles who are looking for a daywalker to kill during some ritual. Meanwhile, the woman in question manages to find a group of people willing to keep her alive.
The vampires in this movie reminded me a lot of zombies in a way. Almost every time they bite the person that they are fighting, it was very rare that they just killed the person outright. The vampires in this movie just disappear into nothing when they are killed. Even their clothes disappear for some reason.…
