i love near dark and and consider it an absolute classic vampire movie . right up at the top of the list of the best and but this film . whew . what can i say . a boring biker movie . yeah and and then some . it all talk and no action . i stay with it to the end and hop for a big finish and but it do not happen . i guess i have work myself up for a big tarantino like shootout in the bar and and it be over almost too soon to catch and if you blink . too bad . at least a blood bath at the end might have give me something to enjoy . i be also a big fan of willem defoe and and he very good in what little he do . one could still see the potential for greatness that would follow . i guess what really disappointed me the most be that i wasn not convince that this be a real biker gang at all and just actor pretend to be bikers . they talk a lot and smoke cigarettes a lot and and drink beer a lot and but there no real tension here and and ultimately the bikers turn out to be about like everyone else . there no rumble and no fight and just talk . long period of talk . still and if she never make another movie and katherine bigelow can at least say that she make the best vampire movie ever produce . near dark rock .
