BONUS Kathryn Bigelow Marathon 02 - Near Dark

Uncut Gems Podcast

28-02-2024 • 15 mins

In the second episode of our Kathryn Bigelow Marathon, we are talking about her vampire western sophomore, Near Dark. Joined by our great friend Hillary, we talk about Bigelow meshing genre, taking inspiration from James Cameron and John Carpenter, and wonder how much one can refresh the vampire canon. We also talk about her becoming an action director in the world dominated by men, the pros and cons of poaching the cast of Aliens and that any vampire who isn't wealthy is a failure.
