User Reviews
VampireHunter99 – 7/10
“As a fan of Stephen King, I was curious about this one. It has a slow burn but the atmosphere is top-notch. The idea of a vampire using a plane is so original, and the gore is practical and effective. Miguel Ferrer is perfect as the sleazy reporter. It dragged a bit in the middle, but the ending is worth it.”
ScreamQueen88 – 5/10
“I wanted to like this more, but for me it felt dated and the scares were predictable. The main character is hard to root for, which made it a struggle to stay invested. There are some cool moments, but overall it just didn't hit the spot. If you're a die-hard King fan, maybe give it a shot.”
GoreHound2000 – 8/10
“This movie understands that horror is about dread. The kills are nasty and the vampire design is creepy as hell. I love how it slowly reveals the monster, keeping you guessing until the final act. If you're tired of vampires being all romantic, this is a brutal return to form. Highly underrated gem.”
MidnightFilmNerd – 6/10
“It's an okay watch, nothing more. The acting is solid, especially from Miguel Ferrer, but the plot feels padded and the pacing is uneven. Some scares are great, but others fall flat. It's a decent time-killer on a rainy night, but it didn't leave a lasting impression for me.”
