QWhat is 'Sundown: The Vampire in Retreat' about?
AScientist David Harrison (Jim Metzler) and his family -- wife Sarah (Morgan Brittany) and their two young daughters Gwendolyn (Vanessa Pierson) and Juliet (Erin Gourlay) -- have been invited to the sleepy desert town of Purgatory to troubleshoot a machine he has designed for synthesizing blood for transfusion (no more having to donate!). What he doesn't know is that Purgatory is actually a town full of reclusive vampires, and he and his family are about to get caught in a civil war between those vampires who follow Jozek Mardulak (David Carradine), who wants vampires to give up the 'old way' of drinking human blood, and those who follow the renegade Shane Dennis (Maxwell Caulfield), who thinks that the traditional ways of obtaining blood are preferable. Into the revolution walks Robert Van Helsing (Bruce Campbell), descendent of the famous vampire hunter Abraham Van Helsing. It's going to be a hot night in Purgatory come sundown.
QIs 'Sundown' based on a book?
