its about a guy who is a vampire ...

or is he ?



i have a beta origional of this one signed by Tom Savini
He did the FX and acted in it.


John Amplas plays the main character .. who you might know as the young goateed Dr. in Day of the Dead.

he has been in most of Romeros films since ..

kind of like the way ronny howard puts his brother clint in all of his films.

^^ word.

This is my favorite Romero flick. Anyone got any links I'd like to read up on it some more for a review I'm doing. Done the usual google thing but nothing decent has popped up.

Ill see if the local Best Buy still carries it. That's where i first spotted it, and was inspired to make this thread.

Honestly? I was kind of let down by this one.

The concept is brilliant and the dude playing Martin did a good job, but overall it kind of left me cold.

I think the plotting was what killed it for me. I mean, I love a good character study as much as the next guy, but in a movie like this I would have liked some semblance of a story to go along with it.

I didn't hate it by any means, but I was expecting a lot more. It's been about a year since I watched it...maybe I should track down a copy and give 'er another go.
