The mid-nineties were a fertile period for the vampire movie. Big-name stars such as tom cruise and eddie murphy flocked to genre, as did high-caliber filmmakers like francis ford coppola, veterans wes craven and john landis, independents michael almereyda and jeffrey arsenault, and up-and-comers quentin tarantino and guillermo del toro. Amid the fangs and crucifixes, abel ferrara reunited with his king of new york star christopher walken for the addiction, a distinctly personal take on creatures of the night. Philosophy student kathleen lili taylor, the conjuring is dragged into an alleyway on her way home from class by casanova annabella sciorra, the hand that rocks the cradle and bitten on the neck. She quickly falls ill but realizes this isn't any ordinary disease when she develops an aversion to daylight and a thirst for human blood... Having made a big-budget foray into science fiction two years earlier with body snatchers, ferrara's approach to the vampire movie is in a lower key. Shot on the streets of new york, like so many of his major works
