Virgil is a loner who has been performing in small-time rodeos and engaging in one-night stands ever since he left his girlfriend and son seven years ago. But now, his old buddy Brownie convinces him to return home to Waco, Texas. Once back, he runs into Sheriff Gil Acuff, who still resents Virgil for a bronco accident years earlier that put an end to Gil's promising rodeo career. When Virgil becomes romantically involved with Teresa, Acuff's niece, he gets into a load of trouble. Teresa believes she is a vampire and has a yen for fast cars and rodeo performers. Then someone puts a stake through her heart, and leaves her corpse in the trunk of Virgil's car. Now the cowboy must prove he is innocent of the crime and find the real culprit. [More]
