Night Hunter (1996)

It's got Don "The Dragon" Wilson kind of playing Lorenzo Lamas from Renegade, kind of playing Brandon Lee from The Crow.

And it has Maria Ford who... kept her clothes on, which makes one instantly wonder how that went down in the casting call. "Listen, Maria, we really want you for the role, but are you OK with not doing full frontal?"

Anyway, this movie would have been something with a higher budget wouldn't it? The start of the film was solid... SOLID... for any independent horror/action flick....

... and then the unnecessary subplots failed. They attempted to give a little too much character to Don Wilson and, honestly, this time it would have been better if they left him underdeveloped and made him more the vampire boogeyman.

No one would have complained if Ford took her clothes off again... no one.

And, seriously, the attempts to flesh out the story weren't necessary. It had a great start, it should have fallen back on mindless action, but the plot just kept getting in the way of that.

It was a B-Movie that thought it was something more and that is where things fail....

... but, Don "The Dragon" Wilson was really trying his best to be more than a kickboxing machine, so... credit. And the opening alone spoke of real potential.

But, sometimes, you just have to understand that you are making a B-Movie and roll with it.
