The trailer for Dark Star Pictures’ brand new bold, genre-bending Vietnamese vampire thriller, Daydreamers, is upon us and the cinematography is breathtakingly beautiful. Enjoy.

Set in modern-day Saigon, Daydreamers follows Nhat, a young vampire raised in a secretive riverboat community that suppresses its thirst for human blood. When his estranged brother Marco returns, tempting him with freedom in the city’s nightlife, Nhat breaks vampire law to protect a rebellious girl who uncovers his secret—sparking a deadly chain of events. As chaos erupts, Daydreamers delivers a genre-blending, emotionally charged twist on vampire mythology with stunning visual effects and a powerful story of loyalty, identity, and survival.

It stars an all-Vietnamese cast, including Chi Pu (Trieu), a singer and actress with over 20 million followers, and rising talents Trinh Thao (Ha), Thuan Nguyen (Marco), and Tran Ngoc Vang (Nhat). It was directed and written by Vietnamese American filmmaker Timothy Linh Bu.

This one looks slick and cool and we’re due for a new vampire action film, so you’re welcome. (I’m not sure why I’m taking credit 🙂 )

Daydreamers will premiere in the U.S. with a limited theatrical release starting May 2^nd, with an expanded theatrical rollout to follow. The digital release is set for June 3^rd across all major TVOD platforms.
