On a lonely Oklahoma road, farm boy Caleb Colton (Adrian Pasdar) meets the mysterious Mae (Jenny Wright) and is instantly smitten. After a night together, Mae bites Caleb's neck and disappears into the dawn, leaving him burning in agony as sunlight touches his skin. Mae belongs to a nomadic clan of vampires who travel the American Southwest in a blacked-out RV—the feral Severen (Bill Paxton), the volatile Diamondback (Jenette Goldstein), the ancient Jesse Hooker (Lance Henriksen), and the eternally young Homer (Joshua John Miller). They give Caleb a choice: make his first K*ll and join them, or die. As Caleb struggles with his humanity while the bloodlust grows, his father (Tim Thomerson) and younger sister relentlessly hunt for him. Caught between his family and Mae's dark clan, and running out of time before he must K*ll to survive, Caleb searches for a way to save both Mae and his own soul.

Director Kathryn Bigelow's 1987 masterpiece reinvents vampire mythology by stripping away gothic castles and replacing them with truck stops, dive bars, and desolate highways—this is the American vampire as outlaw. The film operates as western, horror, and doomed romance simultaneously, with Adam Greenberg's dusty cinematography and Tangerine Dream's synthesizer score creating an atmosphere of sunbaked dread. Bill Paxton delivers a career-highlight performance as the sadistic Severen, turning a motel massacre into a showcase of unhinged menace, while Lance Henriksen brings weathered gravitas to the clan's Civil War-era patriarch. Bigelow stages action with visceral intensity—a bar shootout, a daylight escape wrapped in aluminum foil—while never losing sight of the tragic love story. The film's unique mythology, where vampires can be cured by transfusion, and its refusal to romanticize the undead life make this an enduring cult classic.

Original format and audio experience of this film faithfully reproduced by The Revival House. Presented in 35mm film unless noted otherwise.
