About this listen

Brimming with vicious bloodletting, neon beer signs, and Bill Paxton hootin’ and hollerin’, “Near Dark” might be the high watermark for vampire Westerns. I’m elated to have film critic and author Sarah Welch-Larson (Bright Wall/Dark Room) on the pod this week. She’s a “Near Dark” turbofan, with as many deep thoughts on what the film suggests about Manifest Destiny as she has musings on whether these Oklahoma vampires have ever tried roadkill. Let’s ride! Read Sarah’s “Near Dark” essay here: https://www.brightwalldarkroom.com/2022/08/03/youre-gonna-give-me-back-my-spur/ Keep up with all her writing here: https://www.dodgyboffin.com/
