Thirty-five years ago, we saw the release of a vampire thriller from a hot new director which truly connected with audiences and is beloved to this day – that film was The Lost Boys and it remains pretty beloved to this day. This was the OTHER vampire thriller released that same year – it was the second film to be directed by future Oscar-winner Kathryn Bigelow and it stars Adrian Pasdar as Caleb, a young man living in Oklahoma who meets a mysterious young woman (Jenny Wright) one night. The two lovebirds connect and then he meets the rest of the family….or so he thinks.
Because this woman doesn’t below to a family, she belongs to a gang of vampires lead by Lance Henrickson and they’re travelling around the country with one main purpose: to feed on others. And as a result, Caleb has to decide whether he wants to join them….or to be fed upon. This cult classic also stars Jeanette Goldstein, Tim Thomerson, and the late, great Bill Paxton.
