An ancient family of vampires finds itself reunited in New York at the bedside of the elderly patriarch of the species, now dying. On their trail is Van Elsing, who, with the help of his nephew, seeks to eliminate these creatures of the night from the face of the earth. Shot in black and white by a director who has David Lynch as a mentor, "Nadja" is a sophisticated fantasy-horror (though there is little that is horrific): soft atmospheres and careful direction, but inexorably slow pacing and a total lack of suspense. It's the kind of film that makes critics happy but bores the public.
