Moore's Lake . . . a small town plagued by feral vampires. It's only chance for continued existence rests solely upon mere mortals and an all-powerful ghoul that has vowed to seek vengeance upon the town. Under such circumstances, can humanity survive? The Captain of the Moore's Lake Police Force has to make a choice - die a horrible death now and destroy the vampire threat for good, or die an even worse death after Earth has become a Vampire Nation!
When I saw the previews for this film, I wasn't quite sure where it was going. Of course, how can you go wrong with Merritt's ample use of eye candy vampires, right? While this is true, I found that Abe's Tomb had a surprisingly good storyline and it held together quite well! Director Merritt had to operate on an extremely limited budget in the creation of this, his debut horror film. The fact that it is surprisingly good speaks well of Merritt's talents and we should all look forward to his future efforts which will surely have a larger budget after the success of this award winning debut. Horror fans should keep an eye on Merritt as I suspect he is going places given the quality of the storyline and what he was able to achieve with the limited resources he had to allocate to this fine beginning. - Amazon Review

Okay, I'll admit it, I like vampire movies..and Abe's Tomb was no exception. The girls in the movie are quite lovely but for me, being a woman, that wasn't the draw (but for any red-blooded male, it will be), for me, it was the depth of the characters and the storyline, itself. Mr. Merritt's first movie shows his skill as a published author (Fleet of Angels) and translates very well into the theatre. The unexpected twists and macabre turns will keep you guessing as to what will come next. If you like a movie that sticks with you after the credits have rolled, this is the one for you. I hear that Abe's Tomb II is currently in the works and will definitely buy it when it is released. Great job, Carl and team! - Amazon Review
