( CLICK here … for a chronological list of my reviews) ( CLICK here … for all my reviews of movies) ( CLICK here … for all my reviews of horror movies) Actually, compared to some of the horror dreck out there, it’s not that bad … OK, it’s bad, but not that bad. While the film isn’t good, I don’t believe it is the reason that Pavia only directed one more in 2016 and then dropped off the Hollywood map. Mark Pavia has only two directing credits for motion pictures and one’s “ The Night Flier” from 1998, which is a neat vampire tale he adapted for the screen from a Stephen King short story. ( NOTE: I expanded this review with additional opinion and trivia and the updating of links on Feb. ( 1998 94 minutes rated R directed by Mark Pavia and starring Miguel Ferrer, Julie Entwhisle and Dan Monahan)Ī CREATIVE VAMPIRE STORY … DONE JUST SO-SO So I revisited “ The Night Flier” and found it much as I remembered it: basically a TV movie with a bit more gore than your average film and a nice turn on making the vampire scary (it doesn’t have the traditional lengthened incisors … or is it canines?). The star of “ The Night Flier” is Miguel Ferrer, who is the son of acclaimed actor Jose Ferrer – he was the prosecutor of Humphrey Bogart in “ The Caine Mutiny” ( click here for my review) and was also with Jackie Chan in “ Battle Creek Brawl” ( click here for my review). One of the stars of “ Porky’s” is in “ The Night Flier” and I checked and found it on. I saw it years ago and forgot about it until I was reviewing “ Porky’s” recently ( click here for that review). “ The Night Flier,” which is a vampire tale told in a Stephen King story, is one of those. Once every so often I come across a film that was out of my memory but jumps back up and I’m reminded of it because its star has family roots to a classic.
