It is known that John
Carpenter's Vampires was a project originaly
to be directed by Russell Mulcahy (the elmer behind Razorback,
Highlander, and of course Lundgren's Silent
Trigger) project. In July 1995, the French teenage magazine
XL said Mulcahy was to be directing it starring Dolph Lundgren.
"In Vampires from
Russell Mulcahy, blood drinkers will bite the dust. It's Dolph
Lundgren who will the brandish the crucifix!" news from
XL magazine (translated from french), 12 July,1995
It is quite possible, as Dolph
would portray perfectly the vampire hunter Jack Crow. But,
I am not so sure of this, because the summer 95 was the Silent
Trigger filming period, and it's also probably a mistake... |
