Was a ‘Near Dark’ Remake Partially Made Back in 2007?

Whenever anyone asks me to list off my all-time favorite vampire films, the first movie that comes to mind is always 1987’s Near Dark, directed by Academy Award winner Kathryn Bigelow. One of the best vampire love stories ever told, Near Dark centers on the character of Caleb Colton, whose life is flip turned upside

As much as I dig it when home video companies give slick new releases to old favorites that we all know and love, I dig it even more when they give that special treatment to lost films from the past, which many of us have never seen or even heard of. Such is the case

I’ve always been a fan of movies that primarily take place in one location and revolve around a simple premise, as it’s fun to see what clever filmmakers are able to do with their hands tied behind their backs, so to speak. 2010’s Buried immediately comes to mind, which takes place completely underground, with Ryan
