The Thompsons
Plots(1)
In The Butcher Brothers’ award-winning original film, The Hamiltons were a dysfunctional, orphaned family struggling in sunny suburbia. On the outside, they appeared normal enough but they harbored a very dark secret... the need to drink blood in order to survive. In this action-packed sequel, a bloodbath at a gas station in the desert puts the family on the run, eventually seeing them resurface in the U.K. with a new identity as “The Thompsons”. Desperate for protection in this unfamiliar country, the Thompsons seek out the help of a shadowy underground rumored to be sympathetic to vampires. (Lionsgate Home Entertainment)

I watched The Hamiltons five years ago and I don’t remember what it was about. I watched The Thompsons less than a week ago, and I already have the same problem.

The American-British co-production of The Thompsons is not fundamentally good. This is simply a horror film with vampires that doesn't come up with anything fundamentally interesting, only a slightly grittier battle between two vampire families. But it could have been a hell of a lot grittier in that regard, too. It's almost reminiscent of Twilight, except that it wants to be more adult. And it also looks less rosy.
