Description:
In the dusty heart of the American southwest, innocent country boy Caleb Colton (Adrian Pasdar of MYSTERIOUS WAYS) is seduced by a beautiful girl (Jenny Wright) into joining a roving pack of vicious drifters led by the enigmatic Jesse (Lance Henriksen of THE TERMINATOR and ALIENS). But this is no ordinary band of outlaws; Caleb is now trapped in a nightmare of soulless evil that waits in the shadows, hellish mayhem that thrives on blood and absolute horror that begins NEAR DARK. Bill Paxton (TWISTER) and Jenette Goldstein (ALIENS) co- star in this extraordinary shocker co-written and directed by Kathryn Bigelow (STRANGE DAYS).

Amazon.com:
The word 'vampire' is never mentioned in Near Dark, but that doesn't stop this 1987 cult favorite from being one of the best modern-era vampire films. It put then-unknown director Kathryn Bigelow on Hollywood's radar and gave choice roles to Aliens costars favored by Bigelow's ex-husband James Cameron: Lance Henriksen is the leader of a makeshift family of renegade bloodsuckers, nocturnally seeking victims in rural Oklahoma; his immortal gal pal is Aliens and Terminator 2 alumnus Jenette Goldstein; and Bill Paxton is the group's deadliest leather-clad ass kicker. Fellow traveler Jenny Wright lures Okie farm boy Adrian Pasdar into the group with a love bite, and he's soon turning toward vampirism with a combination of frightened revulsion and relentless desire. With Joshua Miller (River's Edge) as the youngest vampire, Near Dark is Bigelow's masterpiece of low-budget ingenuity--a truck-stop thriller that begins well, gets better and better (aided by a fine Tangerine Dream score), and goes out in a blaze of glory. --Jeff Shannon

- Near Dark
Whatever happened to Katherine Bigelow? This is one of the best of her few films. Sometimes a bit over the top and it skims over some details (transfusions without the benefit of blood types?) but, it is a vampire movie, after all. Very stylish, gruesome at a times in it's violence and a fine score by Tangerine Dream!

- Subterranean Homesick Blues
Released in '87, the same year as the fluffy vampire flick, The Lost Boys, Near Dark is an almost flawless transfusion of poetically morbid cinematic blood. It starts off a little slow, but once it gets going...you better pray for daylight.

THE TIMES THEY ARE A CHANGIN'
Ain't modern technology grand? It helped these vampires evolve. I'm guessing some laser treatment from the orthodontist took care of the fangs. Maybe the bat DNA was genetically removed by some scientists. After a couple of milleniums these dark immortals have taken Jesus as their saviour, and subsequently holy water and crucifixes no longer inflict pain. This is the new generation of blood suckers.

JUST LIKE A WOMAN
Yes. this is directed by a woman, Kathryn Bigelow. The female touch in horror is sorely lacking, for whatever reason. We know that the ladies can get crazy violent psycho, why aren't they ... Read More

- A MUST SEE CLASSIC BY FAR
NEAR DARK

Do you remember when this classic was in theaters when it first came out, I bet most of you really do not. If you do remember you are one of the very few who do because this was in theaters around the same time as the mega popular "The Lost Boys". This like that film is all about a young man who is brought into something he didn't really want, and like that film has to protect his family from the family of vampires that are after them. This how ever though is more of a serious film were as the other was more of a over the top/fun type film. Don't get me wrong I love both of these films and consider both of them classics.

The story is all about a young man who is out drinking one night and comes across a young lady who just happens to be a vampire. I guess it is love at first sight because she does not kill him but turns him and convinces her family to take him in. Of course he ... Read More

- Fantastic movie
Near Dark is the ORIGINAL vampire movie -- lots of action, gore, and blood. Lance Henriksen and Bill Paxton out do themselves.
