WHAT’S IT ABOUT?

In the mid-1980s, renegade lone-wolf cop Chuck Steel (Mort) investigates a series of disappearances which turn out to be the work of a deadly horde of “Trampires” – a hybrid of tramp and vampire – and who must now be eliminated by Chuck and his outrageous methods…

IN ONE SENTENCE, WHY SHOULD YOU BE EXCITED?
