Review of Near Dark (1987) by Kafi M — 08 Aug 2008
A very unique take on the vampire myth. The twist of never actually calling the "monsters" in this movie vampires, yet they had the same qualities that a typical vampire does was definitely a welcome change...
The bar scene has to be one of the best I've seen in a long time...
Also there is a child vampire in the flick, who was almost more evil than Claudia (from Interview with the Vampire)... Loved him!
There was one element in the film that I thought was a bit lame, but it is a bit of a spoiler, so I won't post it...
Overall, this movie had an interesting storyline, wicked visuals, and a cast of vampires that you just loved to hate (Bill Paxton as a psycho vampire, LOVE IT!). Good flick... Grade A.
