One Shot - Near Dark

Near Dark

Grade: C

Directed by: Kathryn Bigelow

Starring: Adrian Pasdar, Jenny Wright, Bill Paxton

Before there was Twilight and at the same time there was Lost Boys comes Near Dark. A sort of cult-classic vampire in west Texas tale. It's very 80's, and features a not very interesting lead performance, and doesn't do much to further the genre, but it's a lot like the Lost Boys. Using vampires to sort of be the skeezer, punk kids just having a good time. Throw in a love story and some family drama, and you have yourself a movie.
