Walter is a somewhat church-weary, washed-up exorcist who prefers to spend his free time sipping beer. His tranquil life changes when he suspects he's encountered a vampire. Disorganized, he attempts to track him down and confront him—who else would do it?

Times of open hostility are interspersed with moments of rapprochement, but it soon becomes clear: Vienna isn't big enough for both. A vampire film that juggles the genre's trappings with a wink, charmingly sidestepping all conventions as an entertaining comedy. Sometimes by force.
