Date With A Vampire Collector's Edition Blu-ray brings Jeffrey Arsenault’s seductive shot-on-video cult oddity to disc for the first time ever. Produced during the late-1990s boom of SOV horror, the film follows Violet, a mysterious vampire who stalks the city in search of blood and forbidden desire, drawing a lonely young man into her dangerous world of eternal hunger. Blending lo-fi eroticism with classic vampire tropes, this no-budget gem captures the raw, experimental spirit of New York’s underground horror scene at the turn of the millennium. Written by Kevin J. Lindenmuth and featuring cult favourite Joe Zaso, Date With A Vampire stands as a fascinating time capsule of an era when horror and softcore aesthetics collided on VHS shelves. This collector’s edition presents the film from original tape elements and includes the bonus SOV feature Blood Craving (2002), making it an essential release for fans of rare, regional vampire cinema.
