This movie is the proof that the world is becoming a sick and dumb place
A Masterpiece!
This story has more twists and turns than a second-rate soap opera.
It's easily one of the freshest, sharpest and most enjoyable films of this year.
This movie was hysterical and the music really wasn't half bad. The concept was a spoof on Dracula movies and it worked. Dean Cameron is funny, Toni Basil nearly steals the movie. Good one to watch with the kids for a Halloween laugh. If you like movies like: Clue, Naked Gun, Scary Movie, etc. You'll like this flick. How can you go wrong with Thomas Dolby as a reinvented Pirate who's destiny is to kill his love with a ham bone. Favorite scene is when they debut the music video. Not bad for a 'fake' video. Wonder why we never saw it on MTV? Phoebe must stop Mona and Ralphie from reuniting,thus spell, and keeping her son home with her forever. Not your typical vampire, Ralphie would rather drink milk than blood and he sure doesn't know much about turning into a bat. Ever seen a bat wearing boxer shorts? Search no more.a HAMBONE? LMAO!!!!! He's the DJ-I'm the Vampire.
This is quite simply the single most entertaining and enjoyable vampire movie i have ever seen. I mean, REALLY. Toni Basil singing and dancing her little heart out in a fantastic array of bizarre costumes (corset with hula skirt?), Dean Cameron dueling with the reincarnation of a pirate with a rhinestone pegleg over a steaming cryogenic storage chamber? THOMAS DOLBY as a music video producer/coffin salesman who drives what appears to be a replica of the DRAGULA car? SUSAN TYRRELL, excuse me, in cowboy chaps and a funny hat playing the fiddle? BO DIDDLEY (i'm dying here, i really am) in SPANDEX with GOLD RECORDS around his NECK?????? This is as good as it gets, my friend. Whether you're looking for cheesy songs you can more-or-less sing along with by the second replay, snorkeling midgets in bubble baths, or, i'm sorry but i've got to say it again, TONI BASIL IN A CORSET AND A HULA SKIRT, Dean Cameron dressed like Elvis, one-liners a-plenty, intellectual references (what play does Dean Cameron go to see with Tawny Fere? "The Hands of Egon Schiele"????? I'm going to COMBUST, seriously!!!!!!) or love, romance, and "Bat-Dork," this is the ONE, the ONE, THE ONE. Despite-- or perhaps because of-- the fact that this film dates from 1990, it is a concentrated syzygy (the total is greater than the sum of its parts) of everything that was fun and great about 80s film. Surreal, macabre, bizarre, and hilarious, this is a MUST SEE for everyone who thinks fondly of yonder 20th century. Actually, it's just a must-see for everyone. I love this movie so much i actually go into withdrawal if i don't see it at least every six months. Even now, i suffer.
I must say that this isn't a great work of art, but if you want something silly to laugh and say "Oh My God!" at, this is it! It's absolutely perfect for a bad movie night on Halloween. I bought it for $30 and I'm glad I did!
Gleefully cheesy movie that features Toni Basil, Thomas Dolby, Bo Diddley, and the furry eyebrows of Dean Cameron. Centuries-old vampire starts rock band to impress woman and overcome centuries-old curse. Along the way, we're treated to classic vampire rock and rap, a bit of blues, and even some Sheena-Eastonish prancing and pouting by Tawny Fere. Not a great movie by any estimation, but a good party flick.
