Living Among Us is a 2018 American vampire horror film, overseen by Brian Metcalf.[1] Filmed in 2013, it was released in 2018, 7 months after the death of John Heard (who played as Andrew), making it his last feature film release.[2]

The film was distributed by Vision Films and Sony Pictures Home Entertainment, with a limited theatrical release. On January 31, 2018, the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences requested that writer/director/producer Brian Metcalf allow the script, marking Heard's last work, to be added to their Permanent Core Collection inside the Margaret Herrick Library.
