‘Near Dark’ review by Kyle Scharf • Letterboxd
There are 3 big vampire movies from the mid to late 80s. Most people place The Lost Boys at number one, either because it's the only one they know, or they just like the vibe. But for me, it ranks at number three. First place is and forever will be Fright Night, a stone cold classic. Then there is number two, the magnificent Near Dark, which on any given day could take that number one spot. Without a doubt the best performance of Bill Paxton's career (with all due respect to Frailty) and you add in Lance Henriksen, Jeanette Goldstein
