Vampires

Vampires (1998)
Dir: John Carpenter

The Vatican enlists a team of vampire-hunters to find a crucifix that would allow the undead to walk in sunlight.
Weak film from a once great director. The film starts well enough and has some good ideas but it fails to take advantage of any early promise. The story runs out of steam halfway through and despite a quality performance from James Woods it ends up being a wasted opportunity.
