Released May 17th, 2022
Kicking Blood stars Alanna Bale as Anna, a vampire. Anna has a taste for blood and while she is a murderer, she tends to enact her need for blood on bad people who deserve to have their life force sucked out by a vampire. Her first kill, that we see, is that of a man who works at the same library where Anna works. First, Anna witnesses this jerk breaking the heart of her elderly co-worker all while also acting creepy toward Anna.
So, Anna shows up at this co-worker’s home seemingly to give the man what he wants. She is acting seductively and playing off of his creepiness, toying with the man until she decides to take what she came for, his blood. On her way home from this kill, Anna meets a man lying in the streets wishing for death. This man is Robbie (Luke Bilyk), an alcoholic who is hitting rock bottom. He’s lost his friends, his family and his job and seems ready to die.
