Several weeks ago
I stumbled upon the
trailer for a new vampire flick called NIGHT JUNKIES. It took
the whole vampire mythos in the direction of showing the dark gift as if it were
a drug abuse problem. The
trailer looked pretty cool, and I mean the film did follow a
stripper/escort girl so that there is reason enough to go and check it out.
Well according to NIGHT JUNKIES
writer/director Lawrence Pearce, the film has finally gained STD distribution
(…must…resist…easy…joke…) and may even be headed for a sequel!
Pearce said the following on his MySpace blog:
“Finally, just wanted to let you know that I have
completed the script for the next film. Night Junkies: Unleashed is a bombastic,
crazy, action-packed 2nd film from the Night Junkies world with a much larger
scope.”
I’m actually really looking forward to this film,
it sounds pretty cool. The film was picked up by Allumination, which distributes
directly to Wal-Mart in the U.S. so look for it in July when it’s planned to
hit’s shelves. To find out more about NIGHT JUNKIES check out Pearce’s

Oh and if you do happen to check out his page,
make sure to read his
I’m a Night Junkie photo blog where he’s
managed to get all sorts of people to send in pictures of themselves saying that
they’re Night Junkies, including some pictures that may be ‘too hot for TV’.
