“Vampires vs. the Bronx” is a comedic horror movie directed by Osmany Rodriguez and co-written by Rodriguez and Blaise Hemingway.

When the Yorkville store selling video porn downstairs from a New Yorker named Robert closed, he was more dismayed by what took its place: A Peruvian chicken restaurant that made him and his girlfriend lose sleep because there was lots of noise until late at night.
