Half crime picture, half vampire bar-fight, and the seam where it flips is one of the great bait-and-switches in 1990s American film — which is exactly why it belongs at midnight rather than at four in the afternoon. Nitehawk is running it as an anniversary Midnite Movie thirty years on, with food and drink brought to your seat while the Titty Twister comes apart. Seating at 11:55, picture after midnight.
What to expect
A 108-minute DCP screening in Nitehawk's Metropolitan Avenue house, where seats are reserved and table service runs during the film. Nitehawk's own note is explicit: arrive by 11:55pm for seating, and the movie starts after midnight. It is rated R, and the second half is a full-contact practical-effects bloodbath.
