The first Iranian Vampire Western.

HorrorRomance

In the Iranian ghost-town Bad City, a place that reeks of death and loneliness, the townspeople are unaware they are being stalked by a lonesome vampire.

VIBE

This film feels like a dreamlike, black-and-white poem. It's a melancholic, atmospheric journey through a desolate landscape, steeped in a cool, detached loneliness. The mood is one of quiet yearning and subtle dread, unfolding with a deliberate, almost hypnotic rhythm that lingers long after the credits roll.
