I originally watched this movie for Alyssa Milano's nudity. I also watched it because my friend Adam was an extra (he's the guy that she bumps into while running out of the class. You can tell it's him by his stupid hairdo and his stupid walk - even if you don't see his face) and I sold it when I couldn't afford rent.Years later I saw it on Joe Bob Briggs with heavy editing (yep, meaning no nude Alyssa Milano - sigh) and it was strangely addictive. The storyline is a standard Dracula ripoff with a vampire trying to romance a virgin and making her act all slutty in the process. Only instead of choosing the dull Harker over the sexy Dracula, Milano's character is stuck between the dull Harker and the even duller Dracula stand-in. Which is probably why she makes out with the lesbian neighbor. THis is one of those bad movies that you just have to like - even if your taste doesn't run to the camp. Sure, it's not Showgirls camp, but what is. There's something intriguing about the vampire's "acting", Milano's "I'm just a good Catholic girl" routine, the weird orgies that are almost as sexless as Eyes Wide Shut and the dream sequences without much purpose whatsoever. Oh yeah - Jennifer Tilly shows up in the movie for fifteen minutes. She has no purpose whatsoever. She's just there in the bar, she makes out with the dull boyfriend and she disappears. But its sheer uselessness makes it funny. You know they were going to eliminate the entire Tilly scene but it's Jennifer Tilly. Jennifer Tilly is funny. You can't get rid of Jennifer Tilly. If you are looking for a cheesy horror movie you can't go wrong with this movie (and if you've seen your share of bad cheesy horror movies, you know what I'm talking about). If you are looking for horrible dialogue and bad acting that's infinitely watchable - buy this movie (it's less painful than a high school play). If youa re looking for well-rounded characters, brilliant dialogue and chance to know yourself better - watch American Beauty. You aren't going to find any of that stuff here.
Rating: - Intriguing Vampire movie with Alyssa Milano!
Alyssa Milano is so beautiful in this movie. She is by far the one of the most stunning actresses today.It is unfortunate that this is the type of movie that she did to resurrect her career, but overall it's not half bad. It is very dark,sensual, and intriguing, and Alyssa plays Chartlotte, a virginal freshman who dreams of a vampire who seduces her in her dreams. the film is beautifully shot with semi-convincing performances from the attractive cast which includes Rachel True, Jennifer Tilly, Charlotte Lewis, and Harrison Pruett. Alyssa does what she can with the weak material and overtakes the movie... Main problem is the vampire himself. Martin Kemp does well as the vamp, but I cannot for the life of me understand what the attraction to him would be. He is not mysterious and daring looking. He is quite unattractive. I would have pictured more of a Brad Pitt/Tom Cruies type vampire. It would have been more convincing Charlottes obsession for him. This movie is soft core porn, but it is more than that. An interesting, sensual look, at how our dreams can sometimes take over our lives.
Rating: - Alyssa Milano! Mostly Nude!
If you're looking for a plot, good acting, thrilling action sequences, characters that you can care about, a good script, or a memorable movie experience, then you're looking at the wrong movie. However, if you're looking for a softcore porn movie starring Alyssa Milano's bare breasts, you're looking at the right movie.Alyssa Milano gets naked. You see her nipples with amazing frequency. She lets guys touch her in dream sequences. She lets a female photographer touch her, remove most of her clothing, and then kiss her. But beware, Lesbian Sex Scene seekers - Alyssa does not go further than kissing. Yes, that's right - she loses her nerve and runs out of the room. Taking the time to get dressed again, unfortunately. So if you're a fan of Alyssa Milano's breasts, then by all means rent this movie. Or buy it. It's worth it if you enjoy seeing her bare, heaving bosom. However, if you like movies that you can watch all the way through without saying "God, Hollywood will produce ANYTHING!", then this movie is not for you.
