Kind of a two-way group session here: A tribute to Bill Paxton and the potential farewell to HMF Lite. Could be the last event here before we migrate to the new board. For me, Near Dark started off as a vampire movie I really liked, and after repeat viewings it gets better every single time. A true comfort flick. I like to try to pinpoint why I love certain movies that I love, and why they get better with every viewing, but sometimes it's just not possible. You don't really pick your favorite movies, your favorite movies pick you. This is one of the many that chose me. Starts at 1:00 A.M. Eastern 12:00 A.M. Central 11:00 P.M. Mountain 10:00 P.M. Pacific I don't know what the fuck time it'll be in England if Seb wants to join. 5:00 A.M. probably?

Alas, I'll be going to work at the time, so I can't join in. Hope all who participate have fun, though.

Let's wait until :05 after the hour for D. If he's not around by :05, we'll just start it up. Sound good?

Definite homage to James Dean there, with Caleb and his cowboy hat and boots in the back of the truck.

Animal rights people gotta hate that opening shot. Back when bugs were harmed in the making of these movies.

Most women do nothing for me with short haircuts like that. But Mae is the rare exception

Can't believe this movie is 30 years old. Pretty fascinating to see how different people operate compared to today. I know it's a fiction vampire flick. But the opening chemistry between Caleb and Mae is pretty genuine. I don't think girls today would get into a pickup like that with any guy, nowadays.
