Vampire Boys 2: The New Brood (2013)
The vampires are back in town but this time there’s a new brood. Chisel-jawed Jon Euler steams up the screen as brood leader Jasin in this hot sequel to the wildly popular original. This time his vengeful ex-lover Demetrius (ripped dreamboat Rob Hoflund) is out to get Jasin and brings along his coven to boot. Jasin and Caleb’s eternal love is put to the test when Jasin’s jilted lover Demetrius returns to get this revenge. Demetrius plots to destroy Jasin by creating an army of vampires — unwilling victims recruited from the local boxing gym. Tara, reeling from her own rejection by Jasin, is eventually compelled by Demetrius to join him in his quest.

If you're interested in the topic at hand, you should just watch it and judge yourself because the reviews have gone very biased by people that didn't even watch it and just hate (or love) the creator. I liked it, it was well written, narrated, and directed and it was about a topic that interests me.
A movie that not only functions as a solid scarefest but a razor-sharp satire.
what a terribly boring film. I'm sorry but this is absolutely not deserving of best picture and will be forgotten quickly. Entertaining and engaging cinema? No. Nothing performances with flat faces and mistaking silence for subtlety.
This movie feels like it was made purely to piss off people who want good shows
VAMPIRE BOYS 2: THE NEW BLOOD seems to be some kind of gay vampire film, and I should note from the start that I haven't seen the original film. Not that I appear to be missing anything: this is dreadful stuff indeed, a purely amateurish production which simply consists of young male cast members stripping off for pretend gym scenes and occasionally romancing each other. The main characters stand around and chat in endless stilted scenes and there's one lame, half-hearted fight scene towards the climax to make you laugh. There's no discernible vampire action or bloodshed either, rendering this a complete waste of time, the kind of film that makes me wonder why the effort was made to shoot it in the first place.
There are some films that only deserve a review because of others so bad you can't even attempt one. This is the case of VB2TNB. There is some plot there, though awfully developed: the 'good' vampires are menaced by the appearance of a 'bad' vampire trying to form a squad of vampires to fight...who they? And so the story stays, and all is only explained at the end. But he film wouldn't be so bad if the actors could minimally act. They deliver their lines monotonously, with no space for emotion. Do Vampires have no emotion at all? The scenes of battles are equally poor, being there nearly for the sole reason to watch frontal nudes, something the leads and other characters are always ready to offer. Even for a great vampire fan this film is a flop, intended for a gay audience with very low expectations.
By the end of the first Vampire Boys movie, I had finally gotten used to how bad all of the actors were, and in fact had become quite fond of them. They were so bad that they were actually good. The original Caleb was especially annoying. Yet, I found myself strangely looking forward to the prospect of watching the sequel. I was particularly looking forward to seeing how awful Caleb would be this time around...Unfortunately I'll never know how bad the original Caleb would have been the second time around. It was a crushing blow to learn that Jasin and Caleb are played by different actors in the sequel. The new Jasin totally sucks. The new Caleb isn't nearly as grating as the last one. He's just cute and boring. I don't understand why they bothered making this sequel when they couldn't even get any of the actors from the first movie to come back (except the girl). Because of this, I found Vampire Boys 2 to be a huge disappointment.
To be fair, the writers did try to make a coherent script that ties up all its story lines. Bad-boy Demetrius' hatred of Good-boy Jasin is reasonable, as are the situations of Tara and Caleb. They make up a solid quartet of character-types revolving around love and jealousy. Storyline B is about Demetrius's cousin Judah and his complicated feelings for a young, attractive protégé at the boxing gym. By the end, both story lines are resolved, with degrees of skill varying from bad to very bad, but they do get resolved. So kudos for making sense, but more kudos on the flesh peddling. My favorites are Quinn Jaxson who plays Kevin in tight red jeans; David Alanson who plays a jogger who becomes Kevin's meal, consumed while both are naked; and the adorable Will Branske as Caleb, the doe-eyed boyfriend Jasin has to protect. The lore of vampires is full of better representations in film. Gay vampires don't really add much except bodies in this one, so enjoy that.
