一个英国电影小组到意大利威尼斯拍摄，住进旅馆后，离奇的事件开始发生，阴谋、失踪、死亡......;分割的影片画面发生着不同的情节，原来，众人皆是吸血鬼的新鲜肉食。延续一贯的强烈实验风格，菲吉斯动用了以PD100为主的几部数位摄影机，着魔似放肆他的影像实验，大卸四块的分割银幕、数位影像的马赛克残影、其中利用掌上型DV在黑暗中的红外线夜视功能，呈现夜里瞳孔发亮、通体透着诡谲色温的吸血鬼野兽般的影像，堪称一绝。这部影片咋看并不能看懂，需要回头细品。片中所述的剧组中没有明星，而实际恰恰相反，影片大牌云集，甘当配角，就连落在演员阵容末尾的埃娃·拉耶尔瓦布埃纳也是当今西班牙最著名的弗拉门戈舞蹈家。

Spike and his sister Anjela live in the Terrordome, a huge ghetto that all the blacks have been forced to live in. Jodie, Spike's pregnant white girlfriend, ran away from an abusive white boyfriend who, after seeing her with Spike, sets up a trap for her. Spike's 11-year old nephew Hector dies as a result of this trap, and Anjela, finding the body of her son, goes on a police-killing rampage. Her apprehension sets off tension between Spike and his brother-in-law, as a race war broods inside the Terrordome.

Down on his luck, Charles Blakey agrees to rent his basement to a mysterious stranger, unaware he may be letting in a force much darker than he imagined.
