7/10
A different vampire thriller.
26 March 2016
Warning: Spoilers
The story is good and suspenseful, and actually has some brains behind it as well. Saw this in the late nineties. Based on Stephen kings story. Miguel Ferrer is great as the reporter, you tend to like him but at the same time you recognize what an asshole he is and whats in store for him. This is still enjoyable enough to recommend it. Surprisingly edgy and gory, with plenty of suspense and solid cinematography. Very moody, dark, and mysterious. It is an incredibly atmospheric and gripping film. In one creepy scene they show the vampire walking invisible through a restroom while all its mirrors shatter and his footsteps pass them one by one. Had they left the vampire unseen I think it wud hav been better. It has its strong moments and its weak ones. The films look is really done well, a lot of darkness adds to the overall feel. The places used to shoot the different airports are awesome as well, great small town look, where things like this might happen, and no one would not notice. Beware of a nightmare like ending.
