Got the DVD in today!!

Basically this is a 'B&W' [non-color ;) ] 'shot-on-video' release. Probably never even had a theatrical run.

There's a lot that could be considered 'bad' about this movie [the acting, the script, the plotholes... ;) ]; but it SERIOUSLY has a LOT of 'heart'!

And Kacie Young [ http://imdb.com/name/nm1427114/ ], who plays the lead character ['Dawn'] is about the cutest non-professional actress I've ever seen!! While having no 'OT' scenes; this is a sad, coming-of-age movie about a very 'different' young girl.

IMDB link:
http://imdb.com/title/tt0376558/

Synopsis:
Dawn (10yo Kacie Young) is a special little girl, born of two very different parents. Her father, John (Ray Boucher) is human. Her mother, Sarah (Mindy Raymond), is not. Her unique circumstances make it impossible for Dawn to live a normal life. Always traveling from town to town, place to place, Dawn never has the chance to fit in. On the verge of her 10th birthday, she's finding it harder and harder to control the animal instincts hidden deep inside her. Avoiding the authorities at every turn has become commonplace to Dawn and John. Their activities have become routine. Feeding on the life blood of the sick and weak has become Dawn's mainstay and the key to her survival. When a specter of the past arises in the form of psychic Carlton Reed (Jay Reel), Dawn faces her true destiny and brings her to terms with a terrible revelation - is it easier to go on living her tortured, abnormal life, or to give in and do what she feels is right, in her somewhat human heart?

I really liked this one, but then I'm a sucker for 'The-Good-Old-College-Try' Independent films... And I just liked the way at times, Dawn got to act like a fairly 'normal' little girl. (The way they re-arrange and 'modernize' Vampire folklore to fit their needs might irritate 'Horror Purists', but Hey!! :think )

Like I said, the filmmakers had a lot of heart; and I think [to an extent] they succeeded in conveying the hopelessness of a father on the run, that has allowed his daughter to commit atrocities in the name of 'Love'. (I DID say this was a 'sad' movie, didn't I?? ;) )
