Watch Vampire in Brooklyn For Free

best movie i've ever seen.

Admirable film.

Fanciful, disturbing, and wildly original, it announces the arrival of a fresh, bold voice in American cinema.

All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.

This movie is not a vampire movie. It's a movie about human behavior, religious hypocrisy, animal behavior, social issues, and difficult choices. I don't feel it will translate well to today's expectations. This is one of my favorite movies.

Maximillian (Eddie Murphy) is the only survivor from a race of vampires on a Caribbean Island, and as a vampire, he must find a mate to keep the line from ending.Some have said this film is the worst for Murphy and for Wes Craven, with Murphy saying the wig he had to wear was a big part of the problem. Now, looking back almost twenty years later, the wig does not look bad, and this was far from rock bottom for Murphy. For Craven, it may not be his strongest film, but it may also not be his worst ("Cursed" is pretty bad).Seriously, this is not that bad of a film, even if the humor never hits exactly right.

Okay so heads up, this is a black / African American film, and for those who didn't know that initially (such as myself) and just went into it for a free vamp movie might / aught to know this. It's Stella got her Boomerang and at a low budget and that about sums it up...That said (and again I'm mentioning this as I saw it for free) honestly it kind of sucked far as a vamp movie goes. the whole premise is to get the main girl which IMHO is kind of retarded to begin with far as a vamp movie goes. At any rate the movie is quite lack luster in the action department as well as the general story and the Kobe Bryant look alike Allen Payne doesn't do it any more justice. It fails as a vamp movie and I don't care if it's trying to be sarcastic or not it really doesn't sell on any level.So here's my advice, the rating is as it deserves. If you're up late one night with nothing else to watch and a few too many in you, then feel free, I was in such a case and still found it a mess honestly. There are better things to waste two hours of your life on (like sleep), but that's just my opinion, you be the judge... If anything the movie is out of date, not due to special effects nor music as it really doesn't have any but for characters and if nothing else lack of anything goodEddie, I like what you've done in the past, but damn...

I always deliberately avoided watching "Vampire in Brooklyn" because, quite frankly, the idea of a collaboration between horror-director Wes Craven and comedy-actor Eddie Murphy sounds about as appealing as going on a picnic trip with a tribe of cannibals… You just don't do that! But hey, every horror movie eventually deserves a fair chance – especially when it airs on TV for free – and, who knows, maybe all your prejudices might be proved wrong. Of course your instincts and premonitions are rarely ever wrong, and "Vampire in Brooklyn" definitely isn't what one would call a good film, but at least the opening sequences mislead me into believing it actually could have become one! The opening is simply terrific and honestly deserves to be part of a different and much better horror movie. Eddie Murphy literally makes a great entrance in the horror genre, but then inevitably ruins it himself by exaggeratedly trying to showcase his "talents" as a comedian and a master of disguise. After a brief voice-over intro, explaining Maximillian is the last survivor of a breed of vampires that emigrated to the Bermuda triangle who now needs to go to Brooklyn in search for a half-vampire woman, we witness an immense and rudderless ghost-vessel entering the harbor and wildly crushing several yachts like they're ordinary paper boats. Marvellous intro, but unfortunately the film immediately goes downhill after that. The plot still shows a lot of potential, since the half-blood Maximillian finds is an emotionally troubled cop, but lame and totally unnecessary comical "sketches" continuously interrupt the tension and substantial coherence. The absolute low-points are two overlong and dull scenes with Eddie Murphy transforming into a whiny preacher and an Italian gangster in order to get closer to his muse. Also, and as expected, Murphy isn't the least bit impressive as the supposedly fierce and charismatic vampire. Maybe it's because you automatically associate his face with a series of comedy movies, but as a horror character he's just lousy. Kadeem Hardison provides a couple of noteworthy moments as the ghoul assistant in a constant state of decomposition, but also his rattling and swearing quickly becomes irritating. Wes Craven's style and usual trademarks are hardly ever noticeable and I suspect Eddie Murphy pretty much behaved like he pleased on the shooting. I'm generously rating "Vampire in Brooklyn" four out of ten, and most of these points go to the great opening and the indescribably beautiful Angela Bassett.
