Neon Dreams closes out Fang-Tastic Weekend with Kathryn Bigelow’s absurdly stylized grunge-pop masterpiece, Near Dark. A film that has become the benchmark for late-80s style and atmosphere thanks to Bigelow’s ultra-cool direction and Tangerine Dream’s iconic synthwave score. 
 
A family of outlaw vampires roam the countryside in an RV with blacked-out windows, always hunting for their next victim. But when love springs eternal between a mortal and an immortal, things get weird! Featuring all-timer performances from Lance Henrickson, Jenny Wright, Jenette Goldstein, Joshua Miller, and Bill Paxton as the supremely watchable gang of shitkicking bloodsuckers, Near Dark is a violent, intense, romantic, hilarious, action-packed thrill ride through the Arizona desert that contains some of the most stunning and evocative imagery every put to celluloid. We are thrilled to present this singular piece of groundbreaking cinema loud and in glorious 35mm, just as God (Bill Paxton) intended. (BRENDAN ROSS)
