Eric Red Talks Nightlife
The director Eric Red was recently at the Fangoria’s weekend convention in Secaucus, NJ to help promote his latest film 100 Feet. You may also have heard of some of his other scripts which include the original Near Dark and The Hitchhiker. While speaking with the crowd he mentioned his new project Nightlife. Luckily Icons of Fright were on hand to get this:
“It’s a contemporary vampire story set in San Francisco. (Where Red plans on shooting the film.) It’s very graphic in terms of violence and sexuality. It’s about a girl who comes to San Francisco looking for her missing sister. She received a letter from her and she’s come to find her and she meets this guy who’s very handsome and charismatic and successful who was friends with her sister, and he wants to help her find her. This guy, of course is a vampire and her sister got away from him. But he turned the sister into a vampire, and she’s now trying to find a way (since he never told her how to kill vampires), to learn how to kill vampires so she can kill him. So you have one sister going together with this guy to try to find her missing sister. And then the other sister learning how to kill vampires so she can get this guy and they’re all headed on a collision course.”
Sounds like an interesting way to spin a vampire tale. Their is always a risk with vampires however that they come off too soft. Hopefully that will played down and the fact that he said the film has graphic violence will play in our hand. It is nice sometimes to get some real storytelling at the same time as well.
