Pale Blood

You know how sometimes you can tell all you need to know about a movie from its poster?
Yeah, Pale Blood is like that.

George Chakiris plays Michael Fury, a vampire who's come to Los Angeles to track down a serial killer who thinks he's a vampire. He's got an assistant who's fixated on vampires, but who's smart enough to figure out what he is.

She's not smart enough to properly watch tv, though. She's watching Nosferatu, including the part where Orlock fades away in sunlight (yay! public domain movies) on televsion when Fury comes over to check on her investigation. She gives him the report and then says "Why don't you stay and watch some of this movies with me?". He declines because... well, the movie was OVER.

There's lots of whitewashed walls lit blue and neon. It's a very eighties movie. Fun soundtrack from a band that has probably been long since forgotten Agent Orange. (This is why I read ALL the credits.)

Best part? He's got a TRAVEL COFFIN! Seriously- it's a light proof black fabric sleeping place that collapses into a suitcase.
