Near Dark is one of the coolest Vampire movies ever made. It was over-shadowed by The Lost Boys back in 1987 but is a vastly superior Vampire story. Plus it has a handful of the cast from Aliens, including a very entertaining Bill Paxton. Also, it stars Adrian Pasdar, totally unknown then but known for his role as Nathan Petrelli in Heroes.
With the recent vampire-craze of Twilight and the much more credible True Blood, Lionsgate has re-released Near Dark with artwork eerily similar to Twilight’s DVD box art.
Lame.
Here’s my advice, go to Amazon.com right now and buy the 2 disc Anchor Bay Special Edition. It’s much more tasty (and only a few $$ more, used it’s even cheaper).

Adam Green gave Dread Central an exclusive interview and finally gave some substantial information about his long awaited Hatchet II.
“Hatchet II is actually in space. We were gonna send him to Manhattan and then make a bunch of bad movies, but then we said fuck it, we’re just gonna go right to space. This will definitely further along our race to continue what’s already been done.”
OK, so he was kidding there. Adam Green did say that he was still interested, but is contracturally obligated to do another film after he finishes his current horror offering, Frozen. We may have to wait a little while for Hatchet II, hopefully, Anchor Bay doesn’t bring in another director just for the cash grab.

A viral marketing post card for the upcoming movie Look scheduled to be mailed via the U.S. Post Office never went out, as it was deemed offensive.
While there is no nudity, it still is pretty questionable. Some people are screaming censorship, but being a parent myself I can kind of side on the U. S. Post Office on this one. What do you think?
From Chud:
Writer/Director Adam Rifkin (Detroit Rock City) told the NY Post today- “We’re all in shock. Not only is it censorship, but with the post office in such financial straits, it’s ridiculous they won’t mail it.”
Look arrives on dvd May 5 via Anchor Bay.
