'Midnight Son' - An intriguing new Vampire thriller on the horizon.

A new, yet-to-be released vampire horror/thriller movie trailer has been brought to my attention: Midnight Son

Written and Directed by Scott Leberecht (visual effects arts director on Sleepy Hallow & Spawn to name a few), Produced by Matt Compton and Executive Produced by Eduardo Sanchez (The Blair Witch Project)  according to the site synopsis the film follows "the story of Jacob, a young man confined to a life of isolation, due to a rare skin disorder that prevents him from being exposed to sunlight.... he meets Mary, a local bartender, and falls in love. Tragically, Jacob’s actions become increasingly bizarre as he struggles to cope with the effects of his worsening condition. Forced by the disease to drink human blood for sustenance, he must control his increasingly violent tendencies as local law enforcement narrow their focus on him as a suspect in a series of grisly murders."  

From the trailer (included below) I'd say that Midnight Son definitely looks intriguing. A potentially dark, gritty and compelling vampire thriller that's sure to interest the hardcore vampire genre loving fan like myself! Have a look for yourself and see.
Here's hoping and looking forward to having this feature grace our screens soon!
