"Webb Fallon" (John Abbott) runs a rather ordinary bar in a remote African port riddled with rumours of voodoo and vampires. When bodies start to turn up, and local plantation manager "Roy" (Charles Gordon) discovers his secret after an outing in the jungle in which "Fallon" miraculously survives a gun attack, he must struggle to save both himself and his girl "Julie" (Peggy Stewart) from a grisly fate. Budget isn't an issue here - there wasn't one - but that doesn't really matter. Abbott makes for quite a convincing, if slightly lacklustre, baddie and the concept of him using the moonlight to help reinvigorate himself isn't something I've come across in this genre before. It's only an hour long, with some very basic effects - and quite a plentiful supply of molten silver - but there are still plenty of things going on to keep this enjoyably different take on the blood-sucker story - that's not great by any means - just about worth watching.
