My rating: 7/10
Will I watch it again? Probably not.
I think this is only the second time I've seen this since the first when it was on VHS in '86. I like it. It's well made, it looks great, the actors do a fine job, Roddy McDowall is always fun to watch and glue sniffing looking Stephen Geoffreys is hilarious as Evil Ed. It's a neat twist on the vampire story with some great effects. I know people who go apeshit over this flick and that's where I don't get it. I want to but to me it's just a good movie and that's how it's going to be. The Columbia DVD is a flipper disc with the fullscreen version on one side and the anamorphic widescreen version on the other. The only extra is the theatrical trailer (non anamorphic widescreen).
