Nick Knight was a television movie released in 1989 about Nick Knight, a centuries-old vampire working as a police detective in modern day Los Angeles. Originally meant to be a pilot episode for a television series, it was not picked up at the time. However, in 1992, CBS picked up the series but produced the show in Canada as Forever Knight, refilming the pilot (with the same plot) and using a completely different cast, except for John Kapelos.
