I saw this as a kid during its original TV airing. What was my mom thinking, letting me watch this? I had nightmares for months! Of course it's based on the Stephen King novel (even more frightening than this adaptation), and has been remade since, but don't pass up the original just because of the cheesy 1970's vibe. Sit back and enjoy the cheese and the utter creepiness instead. The vampires don't sparkle and are rather horrifying.

Now I'm just the average film watcher/film lover and not a film student or anything, but I enjoyed this when I saw it at the Bares Bones International Film Fest in Oklahoma. I wouldn't mind having a copy or seeing it again, but I can't find it locally. It was funny but it was also fun! (you know the difference, right?) So I'd recommend it to a friend for renting or if they have a chance to see it premiering somewhere at a fest. A good time and a different type of film than the "norm."

I thought the people in the movie did a good job on it. I enjoy the variety and the unique qualities of independent film and this is another one I will add to my "need to see" list for friends with similar tastes.
