“What We Do in the Shadows,” which premieres Wednesday on FX, is one of the strangest things to hit TV this season. Based on the 2014 movie of the same title, it’s about four vampires who share a home on Staten Island. Housemates for centuries, they’re clearly on each others’ nerves.
“Last night, there were all the people down there, shouting and screaming, half drunk,” says Nandor (Kayvan Novak), the self-appointed leader.
If you haven’t seen the movie, you’re not alone. It premiered at the Sundance Film Festival in 2014, and earned just $6.
