Amazon.com: The word "vampire" is never mentioned in Near Dark, but that doesn't stop this 1987 cult favorite from being one of the best modern-era vampire films. It put then-unknown director Kathryn Bigelow on Hollywood's radar and gave choice roles to Aliens costars favored by Bigelow's ex-husband James Cameron: Lance Henriksen is the leader of a makeshift family of renegade bloodsuckers, nocturnally seeking victims in rural Oklahoma; his immortal gal pal is Aliens and Terminator 2 alumnus Jenette Goldstein; and Bill Paxton is the group's deadliest leather-clad ass kicker. Fellow traveler Jenny Wright lures Okie farm boy Adrian Pasdar into the group with a love bite, and he's soon turning toward vampirism with a combination of frightened revulsion and relentless desire. With Joshua Miller (River's Edge) as the youngest vampire, Near Dark is Bigelow's masterpiece of low-budget ingenuity--a truck-stop thriller that begins well, gets better and better (aided by a fine Tangerine Dream score), and goes out in a blaze of glory. --Jeff Shannon

A great movie back from the 80`s, it may have a couple of dull excenes but overall very,very good.

May have been ok in the 80's but there are a lot better films in this genre.

Near Dark is the best vampire film I have seen, it's not teen girl oriented like Twilight and it's not a cheesy horror film typical of the 80's. It just works well. The cast is fantastic with one of Bill Paxton's best performances and a terrifying Lance Henriksen as the head of the vampire family. You will not be sad you bought this film!

what is the person thinking saying this was a good transfer? This is THE worst looking blu-ray I have ever seen. I love the movie but like many others have said, this transfer leaves A LOT to be desired.

This is one of my favorite b movies of all time. I was really looking forward to enjoying a blu-ray copy of this film. What a disappointment it was to realize that Lionsgate has released a simply terrible transfer of this terrific film. Just about all my regular DVD's look better than this piece of junk. I only gave it 2 stars because the movie is terrific. Save your money and get it on dvd, for that matter a vhs would probably look as good as this piece of garbage. You have been warned.
