Vampire stories can tell us a lot about the world around us, what it means to open up, and what it means to be human. Blood Relatives, the debut feature from Noah Segan, a Rian Johnson mainstay, does this through the story of a vampire father-daughter duo and their road trip towards a new life together. It’s a sweet, sometimes slightly overwritten comedy about building a family and growing up that comes together well enough.
Francis (Segan) is a vampire who has spent a long time on his own and likes it that way. Living the drifter lifestyle suits him, as he roams from town to town, avoiding deep connections and finding meals when he can. This all changes after his long-lost daughter, Jane (Victoria Moroles, wonderful), shows up at his latest motel stay and demands to be taken in. After the death of her mother, she has nowhere else to go (save for some random relatives in Nebraska), and she wants to know more about the man that walked into her mother’s bar all those years ago and never returned.
