One of the great series in the 70s. The opening theme alone is a treat. At first it seems like a quiet, pleasant work in the office then suddenly turns dark, the fan stops abruptly, the wall clock stops working, music gets scary and Kolchak turning around in horror. Goose bumps....

This video quality is wonderful, and this scared the heck out of me when I watched this as a kid, such a a great cast, character writing. Must be noted that the actor, Barry Atwater, who did an outstanding job playing the vampire, actually developed an issue with his eyes because of the constant pain from wearing eye contacts. To remedy this, he choose to take them out, but his eyes remind red from the irritation of contacts. The director wanted to take a break to give his eyes a rest, but Mr. Atwater decided to go on, in which gave him a more natural, eerie effect to his look. Mr. Atwater, also had unusual bone structure, which defined his his looks. He admitted later on in years to come that this was caused by steroid usage over the years. A small trivia for this great-TV masterpiece of horror story telling.

The Night Stalker was a great show in it's day. Loved it but don't remember seeing this one before.. I had a huge crush on Darren McGavin when I was 8 years old and I saw him for the very first time on our new black and white TV where he played the part of the Captain of The Riverboat. One of his greatest performances in my humble opinion was playing the foul mouthed father in A Christmas Story but I loved watching him no matter what he was in. I still watch A Christmas Story every year right after the Christmas tree goes up. , it's as traditional in my house as the tree and the turkey . RIP Sir

This film and the second one, The Night Strangler are amazing examples of how creative writers and directors and actors can really make a made for television film really work. Never really realized that by the time this film takes place, Kolchak was pining and struggling to get back to his glory days when he was a more successful reporter. Only thing I found off about him is that in this film he seems more concerned about getting back his higher status in the news game and less concerned about the victims and the safety of the public. Otherwise he's a likeable guy who just has too much of an independent spirit to work well with others as is evidenced in the TV series later on. I recall as a kid seeing this on late night TV and the scenes that really freaked me out the most was when he finds the woman in the upstairs bedroom hooked up to an IV being slowly drained of her blood. That whole sequence did actually scare me a lot for a made for television film. I keep going back to this film also because of the soundtrack. The music in this is absolutely killer. That groovy jazzy improv like music that plays when Kolchak drives around with the scary piano playing against that jazzy improv sound is so sensational. Makes you feel like you're in the car with him in Las Vegas.

A couple of cool trivia bits; At the end of the movie Kolchak appears to still be fearful and with good cause...in The Night Stalker episode "The Vampire" some construction workers accidentally release a female vampire near Las Vegas (!) who then goes on rampage in L.A., presumably one of Skorzeny's victims whose body was never recovered. Janos Skorzeny is also the the name of the evil werewolf drifter in the 80's TV show "Werewolf".

dad recorded this on VHS tapes back in the 90s and we only had a VHS tapes with only two episodes that were the Ripper and the Vampire. How did Catherine Rollins become a vampire you ask well in the episode Kolchak said she came from Los Vegas, and before there was only one vampire terrorizing the city and we just witnessed him being staked in this movie. Catherine Rollins was killed by the same vampire right here in this movie and he buried her out in the desert hence in the vampire episode we saw hands coming out of the dirt scarring the woman who ran off after witnessing what she saw. So there were really 5 female victims of the first vampire in this movie, Catherine Rollins was the first then Sheryl Hughes from the begining of the film, Bonnie Renyolds, Carol the cocktail waitress, Marry Brandon the showgirl, Shelly Forbs would have been the 6th victim if she hadn't been rescued. And this is where Chris Carter was inspired and influenced to create his series The X Files

The 2005 reboot of The Night Stalker was a complete misfire. Now if the studios had intended a completely different horror drama show then I might be mistaken. But it was my understanding from the preview commercials that the show would be something of a reboot. In the first episode there is even a computer-generated cameo of Kolchak smiling and leaving the INS office while dressed in his 1974 cheap suit costume. The show featured a stereotypical, moody, mysterious, humorless young man that supposedly has deep, dark secrets of a mysterious background. An ambitious, loud-mouth investigative reporter latches on to him without his consent and both form an unlikely pair going around investigating mysterious going-ons, while she competes with him to show she's the smartest and most discerning. There was never a partnership chemistry between the two. Each episode was a grind to watch. In fact I never got beyond two or so episodes before I lost all interest. After two episodes it became very clear to me the show was trying to be derivative of the X-Files, rather than the monster-of-the-week. I believe the show lasted less than the season, got cancelled and just as quickly got forgotten. To the smart-alec trolls who always make the same comment, oh yeah, I know, I know, I know...it's just a tv show. Happy now?

One of the best vampire movies ever made even though it is a tv movie which makes it even more impressive when you think about it. It is a realistic depiction of how a vampire story/hunt would go in modern day society. But two things bother me. If Skorzeny has robbed a few blood banks. Why does he still need to hunt victims? surely the stolen blood will keep him going for a while? Another thing Skorzeny's victims if not properly dealt with, will become vampires themselves and thus spread the curse of vampirism. Well as we can tell at the start they didn't just immediately cremate the bodies. So some of them females must of become vampires themselves and started to attack people etc etc. Why is this not mentioned to Kolchak? Just a thought.
