Wow! What a bizarre film! Unfortunately the few funny moments there were were quite overshadowed by it's completely weird and random vibe throughout.
Good films always raise compelling questions, whether the format is fiction or documentary fact.
The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.
It is an exhilarating, distressing, funny and profound film, with one of the more memorable film scores in years,
Just knew that this film was going to be a BOMB and it sure was, however, it held my interest because of the different characters who loved cooking and eating cats, dogs, pigs and anything with blood running through its veins. Every week, a neighbor would post a sign on a fence for their poor missing pet or person. This all started when a young man invites a certain guy he met on the beach to come to his home for a party while his parents were gone for a week or more. There are plenty of sexy gals running all around and like I said before, this is really a very low B Horror film with Lots and Lots of laughs. So, if you like a slap stick silly vampire film, this is definitely the film for You.
Don't be too hard on this movie. I myself have also seen many, many movies, both foreign and otherwise, and this was Not a bad movie. When you have seen bad actors in a graveyard, trying to re-incarnate a "dead man" who is some extra wearing a badly fitting dirt-covered mask, then being chased by a flying "alien" baby, which is obviously a doll being suspended from a wire making badly recorded backward-tape sounds, ThEn you have seen a truly bad movie (I forget what the name of it was). The key to ThIs movie is to see it for what it could have been, and not for what it is. And, also, to ignore the camera booms which appear in almost every scene. That was the fault probably of an overly tired camera boom guy, and an obviously comatose editor. The director, however, was actually pretty good, the music for each scene fit perfectly, the acting was kinda good, and the special effects were pretty good. And sometimes they even poked fun at themselves. And as for Adam West, if you have seen his Other acting projects, you would know that this is actually some pretty good acting on his part, the best hands down he has ever done. (My way of saying that this director milked the best possible performance from this guy that he is actually capable of giving)...The girls all looked GrEaT, and acted really well. The makers of this movie were unfathomably jealous of their obviously PG rating, and went to bible-belt-esque pains to retain it; (there could have been more screen acreage devoted to traditionally hot vampire sex moments), but I find it hard to hold that against them too much, it made the movie capable of being watched by kids, and we certainly need more of those...
This is a great film. For many reasons this film deserves to be seen, first of all there is humor in it which for me makes it an easy film to watch. While there are lots of things happening that are not so funny like vampires taking over your home the funny remarks from the cast make it fun. Each charactor is great with a unique sence of humor and can easly be identified with. Then there is a deeper side to it. which afterwards made me really think. Granted i rented this with my boyfriend his wanting to get it because of the carmen cover which makes you think t&a made me not like it but afterwards it was worth the rental fee. This film is sort of like, weekend at bernies meets interview with the vampire. The funny easygoing film with the serious plot. So anywho mad props for the guys that did this and go rent it for yourself insted of believing what everyone else has to say.
I saw this movie at Blockbuster and saw Carmen Electra on the cover, and thought. Oh, she was so funny in "the chosen one"......was I wrong about this one. First of all she's in the film a total of 5 minutes, secondly this film was just boring. It wasn't bad in that good way....it had no plot and left you thinking, "why doesn't this guy just call the cops?" It simply frustrates the viewer. Someone said it was a coming of age film....please, coming of age films have people we can relate to. Sorry but no vampires live in my town, I can't relate.
