'Vampires' remains an under-watched entry in John Carpenter's filmography.
John Carpenter is unquestionably one of the most influential voices in cinema. For instance, with Halloween, the filmmaker helped establish slashers as one of the most enduring horror subgenres. And while his Apocalypse Trilogy didn’t find its audience on release, The Thing is now worshipped as one of the best horror movies in history.
Since Crow is a mean cowboy, he decides to take matters into his own hands and hunt down Valek, despite the Holy Church ordering him to restrain himself and find a new team first. His main weapon to find Valek is Katrina , a sex worker at the hotel partying with Crow’s team. Instead of killing Katrina, Valek decides to turn her.
Carpenter’s Vampires also deserves praise for its thrilling set pieces. For starters, there’s special care in showing Crow’s team inventive weapons and methodologies for vampire-hunting. The opening scene of Vampires follows Crow’s team in action as they siege a vampire nest, simultaneously showing the warriors in action and the creatures’ superhuman powers. That helps the audience to understand the stakes and challenges of other action scenes spread throughout the movie.
