I remember during the nineties there was an alternative B-movie film scene and all these shot on video productions were being released on VHS with some pretty impressive package design. NIGHTFALL apparently was one of them.
Truth be told, this was not a bad movie. A detective loses his partner to a vampire and teams up with another detective team to find the head vampire responsible. Pretty standard plot and okay acting.
The surprise was the resources available. Production design, costumes, make up effects and such were surprisingly decent compared with other films from this alternative B-movie scene. A few thousand dollars more toward filming on actually film and this might have gotten a larger audience .
I see this movie and many others like them have been picked up by Troma and released on their DVD label. While not up to the production value of Troma's in house production, NIGHTFALL is a worthy addition.
