I’m hoping I just missed something.

When the vampires first show up there is this big deal about them needing to be invited in. We see it with the first vampire guy, and then they made a big deal about it with Cornbread.

Sometime later, when the vampires suddenly decide they are done fooling around and invade the juke joint to try killing everyone, why are they able to do it with no invitation? Did I somehow miss that someone accidentally invited them in?

I just watched it last night for the first time and this was the only thing that kind of bugged me about it.

    I guess you missed the part where Grace screams “Come on in motherfuckers!” after the vampire threatened to kill/turn her daughter. Then they were able to enter.

    They still required an invitation, but they goaded one of the insiders to “invite” them in anger (paraphrasing, “come and fight me”)

      I was hoping it was something like that. I must have just missed it somehow.

    Grace keeps pushing Smoke to take the vampires head on, before they go to her store and kill her daughter. When the others refuse, she forces it by shouting “come on in, motherfuckers!”

    Vampires are an allegory for germs and bacteria.

    -they can’t enter unless you let them -silver was used as a common cure for diseases -cant see their reflection because most mirrors were made of silver nitrate -garlic was a common remedy for disease -priests would bless those who were sick

    Etc…

    Zombies are an allegory for today’s working environment, but that’s for another question

    It’s a fantasy world populated with vampires. The “rules” are whatever the creator decides, which is probably why these ones don’t sparkle in the sun.
