I know I've seen it. Can barely remember a thing about it. There's vampires, and the hero goes and get an actor who played a vampire hunter on TV to help him I think.
Sounds like you need to re-watch it. [*browwink*]
Jigsaw and I recently discussed this movie:
It's still probably the only half decent vampire film outside of the Universal and Hammer ones.
