Amazon.co.uk Review
This 1987 thriller was a predictable hit with the teen audience it worked overtime to attract. Like most of director Joel Schumacher's films, it's conspicuously designed to push the right marketing and demographic buttons and, granted, there's some pretty cool stuff going on here and there. Take Kiefer Sutherland, for instance. In Stand by Me he played a memorable bully, but here he goes one step further as a memorable bully vampire who leads a tribe of teenage vampires on their nocturnal spree of bloodsucking havoc. Jason Patric plays the new guy in town, who quickly attracts a lovely girlfriend (Jami Gertz), only to find that she might be recruiting him into the vampire fold. The movie gets sillier as it goes along, and resorts to a routine action-movie showdown, but it's a visual knockout (featuring great cinematography by Michael Chapman) and boasts a cast that's eminently able (pardon the pun) to sink their teeth into the best parts of an uneven screenplay. --Jeff Shannon

Synopsis
One of the better vampire films about two new-in-town brothers who discover a local gang of motorcycle youths are more undead than alive. Younger brother Sam works hard to eradicate the ghoulies but his older brother falls in love with the bunch's lone female - and is gradually becoming a vampire himself. An interesting candy-coasted meditation on teen conformity with a great rock soundtrack.

Customer Reviews

i love tis film, buy it! it's worth it!
i'm a huge fan of scary and grewsome films but this film is the best. it's an original thriller that has scares and laughs in it. jason patrick suits well playing the good guy and kiefer sutherland does things best playing the bad leader of a vampire clan. the frogg brothers make the film all that better by adding humour. this film is a must see, it's truely a good make in the film industry.

Amazing Film!!
I heard about this film from a friend and thought i have to check it out and wow it is one of the best films i have ever seen. I am a very big Kiefer Sutherland fan and this has to be one of his best works. The mix of vampires and awesome script just blows you away like "Death by Stereo" the greatest line in this film.
In all i say buy this film it is just amazing!

" Don't do it Michal, It's blood"
What a classic. I thought it was gonna be scary when i first heard about it because i get scared at anything!!!! But it's not that scary it's quite violent though when someone gets the back of his head bit!
