NEAR DARK (1987)

Caleb is out and about late on a weekend night when he meets a fascinating young girl by the name Mae.  Throughout their night together, Mae states that she is not like others and she will still be around when some of the stars fade away.  This enhances Caleb's attraction to Mae and he wants to kiss her even though she resists.  However, they end up in a kiss right before dawn when Mae is trying urgently to get back home.  The kiss produces more than Caleb expects and it brings violence and death to his presence.  Near Dark is an interesting story; however, it falls short in some aspects that hurt the overall film experience.
