Watch Night Junkies (2007)
DescriptionA vampire film because it is well outside the normal convention of that genre. Night Junkies is a gritty, urban street drama about a pair of addicts, Ruby and Vincent. Only they are not addicted to drugs or alcohol---their addiction is to blood. Ruby (Katia Winter) is a dancer at a seedy London strip club. The club’s owner, Maxi, is pressuring Ruby and the other dancers, to perform “other services” besides just lap dances.
Ruby meets Vincent (Giles Alderson) at a coffee house and finds herself intrigued by the handsome, brooding, and soft-spoken man. Their meeting leads to a one-night stand but turns to horror as Vincent bites Ruby on the throat. Thinking he’s simply a psycho Ruby flees back to the club and into a beating from Maxi for failing to collect any money from her tryst. Ruby soon is overcome by illness and confronts Vincent who reveals what he is, and what Ruby is now. They don’t use the word vampire but Vincent explains that holy water just makes them wet and garlic gives them bad breath. The sun does burn him and a bullet to the head will kill him as well as a stake through the heart.
They are junkies in every sense of the word…their addiction to blood eating away at them and creating an irresistible craving. This is especially frightening for Ruby who is terrorized by dreams of a man…perhaps her father…graphically injects himself with heroin, and falls into spastic convulsions as Ruby looks on as a child. Vincent gives Ruby a lesson in feeding, showing her how he kills only those who won’t be missed and dumps their bodies into the Thames. A disgusted Ruby wants no part of killing to survive and urges Vincent to simply stop drinking blood and go cold turkey. One can speculate if it’s the horror of drinking blood, or the horror of her dreams that repulses her so much.
Night Junkies is stylish film noir. The film is set entirely at night. The dingy club office of Maxi is sparsely lit and you half expect to see the shadow of a slowly rotating ceiling fan. All of the performances are impressive because they are so real. Maxi is the epitome of a slimy strip club owner. Women are mere commodities to him, to be used to keep him wealthy. Winter and Alderson give powerful yet reserved performances as Ruby and Vincent. They resist the urge to overact or over dramatize their roles and come off as tragic, yet sympathetic characters. Rene' Zagger also turns in an exceptional performance as the demented Matt, the one character in the film who is over-the-top and wickedly so…
Night Junkies is a low budget film that manages to squeeze the most it can out of the actors and the meager plot. Lawrence Pearce wrote the film and also serves as its director. Pearce’s use of faint lighting and deep shadows permeates the film, and serves to perhaps hide is slight budget. Vampires aside, and the vampiric overtone is really downplayed, this is a fascinating character study of an unusual type of addiction, and a different take on the vampire genre.Read More....
