Filmed in striking black and white and dubbed the “first Iranian vampire western,” Ana Lily Amirpour’s debut feature blends genres and cultures to tell the surprisingly romantic story of a lonely vampire, the “girl” of the title played by Sheila Vand. Set in a hard-boiled town of pimps, junkies, and prostitutes, this deliberately paced film slyly explores sexual politics and vampire tropes while supplying a few atmospheric scares.
“It's a new vampire classic, one to treasure endlessly.” —Drew Taylor, The Playlist
