What We Do in the Shadows: Interviews with Some Vampires

This mockumentary follows the nightly exploits of Viago, Vladislav, and Deacon, three flatmates who are centuries old vampires living in Wellington, New Zealand. They struggle with mundane modern life, from doing chores and paying bills to dealing with vampire politics and finding victims. The film hilariously juxtaposes the ancient and undead with the banalities of everyday existence.

The film received widespread critical acclaim for its unique premise, sharp wit, and outstanding performances from the ensemble cast, particularly Clement and Waititi. It's considered a cult classic and a standout in the mockumentary genre.

• Hilariously awkward and surprisingly heartfelt vampire roommate comedy.
• A brilliant blend of horror and humor that elevates the mockumentary format.
• The deadpan delivery and clever writing make this a standout comedic gem.

Google audience: Audiences adored the film's sharp humor, relatable (albeit undead) characters, and inventive premise. Many praised the chemistry between the lead actors and the consistent stream of laughs.

Won Best Feature Film at the 2007 Glendale International Film Festival, nominated for Grand Jury Prize at the 2007 Sundance Film Festival.

The film was originally conceived as a short film, but expanded into a feature-length movie when Jemaine Clement and Taika Waititi found they had too many ideas to fit into a shorter format.
