Viewing Notes

My first J.R. Bookwalter movie! (bought 3 of them from him recently when Robot Ninja was re-released) Pretty cool that this DVD has both versions of this movie 1991 and 2007.

I dig this story and lo-fi SOV aesthetic. Can understand why Bookwalter agreed to have it remade. Reminds me a lot of Romero’s MARTIN. It’s as much about family conflict as it is about vampires.
