Thirty years on, and Near Dark still holds up. A young Bill Paxton steals the show as a Texas vampire who's equal parts bikie and cowboy, even amongst such stars as Lance Henriksen and Adrian Pasdar. One of the most influential vampire films of all time, it's vibrations can still be felt in the monster movies of today, and while that's not always a good thing, it's noteworthy, and Near Dark in and of itself is a great Southern Gothic tale for the modern world.
Final rating:★★★½ - I really liked it. Would strongly recommend you give it your time.
