“You’re different from humans. Remember that.”

Empire V–a new vampire film that’s described as a “social parody of Russia”–will have its world premiere at Montreal’s Fantasia Fest next month, according to a report on Deadline. Check out the trailer on this page.

The feature–from filmmaker Victor Ginzburg–is based on the 2006 Victor Pelevin novel that revolves around a 19-year-old Muscovite who is turned into a vampire, “propelling him into an elite and powerful echelon of society that has controlled humanity since time immemorial,” according to the synopsis.

The cast includes lead Pavel Tabakov–along with Taya Radchenko, Miron Fedorov, Vera Alentova and rapper Oxxymiron.
