Review: Bury the Bride (2023)



Review: Bury the Bride (2023)

By William Pattison

L.

This time I got a cool vampire movie, which puts batchlorettes against the blood sucking fiends…

Bride-to-be June's bachelorette getaway turns deadly when her bloodthirsty  David, and his friends show up to crash the party and have June’s friends as party snacks.

Initially I didn’t know this was a vampire film, but after I found out I was thrilled.  Never even knew this film existed. In this film they actually kept the fact that the to be groom and his friends were vanpires for a good portion of the film. That way you get to know the characters and then show their true faces. That gives this film a lot of respect because most modern vampire films can’t keep the secret long enough to make an impact.

I really loved June and the batchorettes because the felt like a group of close girlfriend. Also, the vampires came off as nasty rednecks as well as nasty brutal vampire. The only thing that didn’t  ring true is that June would even consider anyone like David to marry.

The atmosphere is great. I loved the fact that the  bachelorette part was at a nasty location with a smell and a dead animal in the hot tube.

Also, the way they handled the vampires were great. It wasn’t reinventing the wheel, like most of these films try to do, but it was bloody, nasty, tense. Good stuff. I could see myself including this film with From Dusk Till Dawn or Sinners.

All in all this film is a bloody good time for modern vampire film fans
