What happens when the thing you fear most is all that can save you? A new Australian vampire pic has entered the fray, entitled The Caretaker, Tom Conyers writes and directs the indie starring Anna Kate Burgess, Clint Dowdell, Colin MacPherson, Lee Mason, and Mark White. "A plague of vampirism has swept across the world. A small but discordant group of survivors hole up in a country mansion. They soon discover that a vampire also shares the house with them. He proposes a deal: They protect him during the day from other humans, and hell protect them at night from other vampires. So begins an uneasy alliance, which soon threatens to fall apart." Check out the trailer inside with more at the film's Facebook.

Fear not, fans of horrific vampires; help is on the way! Unfortunately, your favorite beasties have kind of been hijacked by Twilight, and even the vamps in "True Blood" seem to be spending more time grabassing with Sookie than actually draining victims.

However, word we've received from DC reader and super tipster Avery G is that Australia has a pretty kick-ass vampire film on the way in The Caretaker.

I get a serious 30 Days of Night feel from the creatures in this one. The film is directed by Tom Conyers and stars Tom Conyers, Anna Burgess, Colin MacPherson, Lee Mason and Clint Dowdell.
