Vampire at Midnight (1988)


I know. This is not a great movie. But within its purposes (making a cheap action film) and within its historical context (80’s) it is a very cool film. Demonic villain, inelegant protagonist and a beautiful girl. All this in a climate of mystery that the serial killer, dubbed by the newspapers of “Vampire Killer”, causes in the city where the feature film is happens. My grade 9 seems like an exaggeration, but I really enjoyed the sympathy of the film and its ambient thriller. And the final scene shows why less famous films are so cool. I can not forget to quote the soundtrack, very good. A great movie from the 80 years.
