Plz 🙏 need title US indie vampire film: tries to hide as orphan in small town. Help!

Movie opens with the shocking suicide of the "young man"s guardian who steps in front of a giant bus. They had chosen a small town in middle america in hopes he could hide safely for some time; he is never safe from the scientist who abducted/imprisoned him decades ago and subjected him to tortuous experiments. Some “coming-of-age” elements: meets a girl he likes, bonds with the family of the sheriff who has taken him in, learns much about humans having kindness and caring. Big scenes in 3rd act as govt scientist tracks him down. The movie was streaming on some subscription platform a year or two ago. Its Killing Me! Can’t remember title to save my life…I think the title is the Name of the young man (who is of course a Vampire and not young at all). I keep wanting to think the title is “Stephen”, but honestly got vampire stephen on the brain bcz im binging out watching & rewatching CharMan, lol. Please please help. Tell me the name of this vampire movie. :kissing_closed_eyes:
