The movie takes a pseudo-documentary style - a 'New Zealand Documentary Board' logo appears at the start - with the flatmates arguing over household chores, entertaining visitors and showing the challenges of getting into clubs. Complications arise when newly created vampire Nick (Cori Gonzalez-Macuer) and human friend Stu (Stu Rutherford) come into the fold. The premise: Four vampires, the medieval Vladislav (Clement), foppish Viago (Waititi), rebel Deacon (Jonathan Brugh) and cranky Petyr (Ben Fransham) share a house in Wellington, New Zealand.
