John and Leslie Rawlins (Jason Miller and Kathryn Harrold) find themselves involved in what could be the archeological find of the century, when the mysterious Prince Anton Voytek (Richard Lynch) reveals the spot where many priceless works of art are buried.
When legalities get in the way, Voytek takes offense. This puts the Rawlins' in grave danger, since the Prince is not what he appears to be. At all.
VAMPIRE is a somewhat suspenseful, made-for-TV horror film from the sub-genre's heyday. Miller is believable enough as the haunted man who must go to war with the powers of darkness. Lynch plays the suave neck-biter who gets surprisingly little screen time. E. G. Marshall is quite good as Kilcoyne, the ex-cop on the Prince's trail.
While not the worst vampire tale ever told, it does lack a bit in the thrills department. Those awaiting big action sequences might be disappointed with this rather low-key production...
