Gourt Home::Gourt :: Vampires (film)
Vampires (also known as John Carpenter's Vampires) is an action/horror film directed by John Carpenter in 1998.
Adapted - very loosely (eg, the movie features vampires and the character Jack Crow hunts them; the similarities end there) - from the novel *] by John Steakley, the film stars James Woods as Jack Crow, leader of a Catholic Church-sanctioned team of vampire hunters. The plot is centered on Crow's efforts to prevent a centuries-old cross from falling into the hands of Valek, a master vampire. Vampires also stars Daniel Baldwin (as Montoya), Sheryl Lee (as Katrina), Thomas Ian Griffith (as Valek), and Tim Guinee (as Father Adam Guiteau). Vampires is characterised by exaggeratedly macho characters and dry humour.
A sequel produced by Carpenter, Los Muertos, followed in 2002.
