Soul's Midnight is a present day vampire horror based on a historic cult who delves into ancient rituals revolving around the legend of St. George. The Eve of St. George is upon them and they must find the perfect sacrifice, a child with an untainted ancestry to St George, to resurrect their ancient leader.
'Garbage horror film that gives STV's a bad name. The plots a bastardized take on the St. George myth swapping the dragon for a reborn vampire demon. 30 years ago a woman flees a cult who are hell bent on killing her unborn baby, cut to present and Charles (the baby from the intro) Milford returns to his home town with his wife, so she can have her child and Charles can take over his fathers meat business. Only the cult (whom we now find out are vampires) try to kill Charles and his unborn son. Its an absolute turkey Armand Assante should of known better, the plots shockingly bad as is the dialog, acting is stand in front of the camera and say your lines quality (I guess you can't blame the actors though, having a script this dire to work with). Films of this nature tend to offer least some mild sexual titillation or gore but sadly it doesn’t even do that, the demon when it arrives looks pretty good but nothing you wouldn't see walk into a Goosebumps episode. The fact the locations used are pretty good only ads insult to the filmmakers for not making the most of the spooky hotel and its grounds. Leave it in the bargain bin folks, trust me almost anything else in there will be better.'
