The Ending
What was up with the ending. Where did Dees go that was all black and white? Who was the guy that Dwight Renfield became (when he flashed to a different face for a second) Any help would be great. Thanks.

shareI think the Vamp sent him into a "nightmare" or something of the like, and I believe the guy he changed into was his human form. I mean, the older couple brought the guy in for awhile, he wasn't exactly going to look the way he did when he met them.
shareWhere did Dees go that was all black and white?
--The Vamp makes Dees drink his blood from his wrist, and this puts Dees into a trance-type thing where, according to the Vamp, he sees Hell. All the dead people in the airport rise up out of the mist as vampires, and Dees grabs a fire ax and goes after them. In reality, he is hacking up the already-dead Vamp victims. The cops rush in, see Dees with the ax and the bloodbath before them, and put 2 and 2 together (not knowing about Vamp-boy). They order Dees to drop the ax, Dees sees the cops as more vampires and goes after them, and the cops blow Dees away.
Who was the guy that Dwight Renfield became (when he flashed to a different face for a second)?
--Vamp-boy turns back into his human form--like the other poster said, would you invite him into YOUR house if he looked, well, otherwise? Besides, if you remember when Dees was in the Cessna, and he found the old photo album--Vamp is the guy in the photos. The girl is apparently his long lost love--doesn't her hair look like the old lady that he killed? Maybe that's why he was so nice to her---when he killed her.
"You know, Burke, I don't know which species is worse."
What most don't realize, is that the ending has a deep philosophical message to it. The flier guy is not really a vampire. Rather, he is death itself. When Dees asked to see his face, the creature warned him wether this really was a good idea. Because in most stories, seeng death face to face means you'll die, and that what happened to Dees. He payed a high price for his curiosity. "Night flier" was thus a sort of reincarnated angel of death collecting his victims through a certain magical pattern of destiny. Dees had nothing to do with it, and death warned him but to no avail.
share...or..he could b a vampire! o.O ...lol :) Cool idea there really.

Thx this clears up alot of stuff.
shareI didn't like the movie. But the ending was great.
shareI actually thought the message was that Reporters are worse and cold hearted than vampires themselves
sharehahaha...I like that theory the best, because it's pretty much true!
shareCooke Fann:
I think you have a good interpretation there! I agree! :) The story wants to emphasize reporters rather than murderers.
This movie is GREAT! It's like a really good episode of Millennium & I likes Miguel Ferrer in it & the ending was cool. Everything about it moved good & it was a good story with errie music. You people don't know what good is.
Don't wander into abandoned churches for Czakyr will grab you from underneath the watery grave.
I saw this movie back when it was first released, and totally forgot about it. Then this morning at like four or five AM I caught it on one of the HBOs. It was a lot better than I remembered it being.
shareAnother thing to add is that Dees turned into another "Dotti", the lady who got too into her stories and killed herself, because he "believed what he published, and published what he believed" (or vice-versa, I forgot).
He went crazy.
guys...whaen the vampire changes face...is the graveyard watcher! dont u remeber the long blond hair guy??
anyway i think the endig explain the true metaphor of the movie: the vampire is the journalist cause he is "blood thirsty" of news...he is so thirsty that he can change the reality to let it apper more cruel...
1 the suicide journalist...and i think he put the plastic bag in her head
2 the in the graveyard...he removed the fresh flowers and he put the blood on the stone
3 one ded says: i had to take out the child to get here? mean: he opened the gal's body to let appear that news "better"
whaddya think?
It is defiantly not the grave yard watcher, I compared the two images.
The vampire slit his wrist and forced Dees to drink it, thus turning him into the vampire he actually was so much before is transformation.
Free of this burden the old vampire dude gets young and flies away. Dees turns into vampire and looks pretty much dead, yet we know very well ourselves that neither Stephen King really puts closure to a story, nor vampires die from police bullets.
All I can say is that, in the book, the vampire himself is from salem's lot (which if you know stephen king, is now a "ghost" town filled with vampires). Either he lived there before everyone was changed, or he stopped near it, and was changed at night by them. But since the movie doesn't mention Salem's Lot..instead it mentions Derry xD, you can say something different.
shareGood movie.
shareDwight gives him a "taste" of his own personal hell. Dees was given one last chance to let it go but he damns himself by wanting to see "evil" face to face. As Dwight put it, Dees was searching for Dwight his entire life. Dees was a skeptic and he paid the ultimate price...his life!!
shareForcing Dees to drink his blood made him witness his own personal hell. Dwight turning into a man at the end was meant to represent how, despite being a monster, he was still, or once was, human in some way, possibly even regretting the things he's done.
