Van-pires

The best part of that Van-Pire's TV Show on Fox was the Rock Band Starr. They added so much to that show's excitement. They performed a song every show, besides acting in the show, and I tuned in just to see them. Someone should give Starr a new TV Show. The Band has a very nice fan base and I think allot of people would tune in to see Starr, They were all characters them selves plus really good looking bunch of guys. The Evil Rock Band Starr Fox TV Show. Niki Shea Drums, Zane Fix Vocals, Luke Luv Guitar, & Jerry Moon Bass, These 4 guys had so much charisma and added so much to the show. Playing such songs like New Improved Gods, Luv Nyc , Lipstick Ammunition. I heard that someone was in the early stages of doing a Pilot adventure Cartoon / Live acting series with Rock Band Starr, sort of like Van-Pires was, Half Human interaction and half cgi. But I haven't heard a thing lately. I hope someone does do a new show with these guys. They put on a hell of a concert and there personalities are very funny, They did a movie I saw. it was a documentary on The Fashion industry and Glam Rock bands of New York City called "Freaks, Glam Gods and Rock Stars" on IMDb: Movies, TV, Celebs. But I really miss tuning in every Sat. morning to see them on the Van-Pires TV show. Dickie Doze

Every day i thank the lord on high above for Van-Pires (1997). Van-Pires (1997) brought me out of depression. Van-Pires (1997) struck down my worst enemies. Van-Pires (1997) Fixed my marriage. Thanks to Van-Pires (1997), my children will finally respond to my voice again. My mother, who was in a terrible coma since 1986, sprung out of her hospital bed into a jolly little jig after only a few minutes of Van-Pires (1997). As a simple father with good old American Values, i cannot recommend Van-Pires (1997) enough.

When I was a kid, I first saw this show and sure it was at the same time as VR troopers, MMPRs and Beetleborgs and unlike those shows, which made a lot of money and were all syndicated and sold toys, I never saw any toys or advertising, and to top it all off with those premium time slots the others had, this one came on VERY EARLY in the morning.

Screw the bad points, here's the good points. There was a plot to steal gasoline out of working cars and turn them into car vampires. it was up to these teenagers who hung out at a junkyard after school to literally save the world, at least some countries that depend on automotive transportation. The special effects were rare for this time, on TV shows so I enjoyed the 3d battles. Any kid that was into cars, liked hotwheels, their parents took them to races, this show was for them. Like the others, I recommend you try to find this cult classic, and I do mean try because I haven't yet.

At a reported budget of over $5 million for only 13 episodes, at a time when CGI was all the rage, we have Van-Pires, a half CGI, half live action adventure about four teens struck by a falling meteor who subsequently turn into half human - half vehicle hybrids and must use their newly found powers to fight off the evil "Trac-ula" and the rest of the "van-pires", before the suck all the gas out of every vehicle around the globe. All the fighting car segments are CGI, and its some of the most egregious CGI I've ever seen I must say, with live action segments between the action as the teens chill in the junkyard and get help from their mentor "Van He'll Sing", a hippie who owns said junkyard. Together they form the "Motor-Vaters", the team destined to save earth. Nothing but terrible puns, all the dialogue is car related in the worst ways, and none of the plots are particularly interesting. It's very low effort, low intelligence tv for kids, but apparently even the kids didn't like it as was cancelled after only its short single first season. I got through this solely as something on in the background as I did other things, so only paid full attention to maybe 10% of it, but as a drinking game or if you're someone who seeks out truly bad tv like myself, maybe check it out. But I can honestly say this is the worst thing I've seen this year, and yeah its maybe one of the worst things of all time, so if you're one for that kind of thing go for it, otherwise would not generally recommend.
