Plot

Night brings out the hunger in people, especially a mysterious NY cab driver. He is a powerful vampire. And working the night shift brings a sultry array of sensuous passengers within his grasp. Embracing those ready to die, he controls an erratic but well-balanced vampire realm. Then unexpectedly, he discovers erotic human passion-- unleashing a raging, terrorizing evil. When several innocent citizens are senselessly slaughtered, the baffled police must solve a 350-year-old mystery of unsated passion.
