Amazon.com: This is the movie that was supposed to make Jim Carrey a star--in 1985, no less. Perhaps it's no wonder that it took him until the 1990s (and In Living Color): this bloodless vampire comedy almost sank his movie career before it began. Carrey plays an innocent L.A. teen, the unlikely object of the affections of slinky Lauren Hutton, a long-lived vampire who needs the blood of a virgin to stay young. So, she woos the unsuspecting, naive young Valley guy. But most of the jokes fall flat, and only when Carrey cuts loose briefly and lets his wild side show do we get a glimpse of the future Ace Ventura. --Marshall Fine

Rating: - Young Jim Carrey as an almost Vampire in the 80's
I saw this movie years ago and it has always stuck with me. Not sure if it was because of the fun 80's soundtrack or the acting, but I had to buy it just trip down memeory lane once again. Jim Carrey plays a high schooler in love with his girlfriend....but they've never done, "The Deed". He's getting all frustraited, and his 2 best buds suggest that they try some down town clubs ( mind you, they are driving in an ice cream truck which does not scream, "Hot guys for the taking" ) for a little action. ...

Rating: - Ultimate 80's!
I really enjoy this movie - it's funny (both in a comedy way and a bad-movie way), and is the ultimate height of awesome 80's cheesiness. Great only-in-the-80's music (the title track is a high-rated favorite on my iPod), a full-out choreographed dance number in the middle of the high school halloween party, and some great fashion disasters. Campy, cheesy, B (or maybe C)-movie fun.
This also happens to be the only Jim Carrey movie I can actually stand to watch all the way through, so for those ... Read More
Rating: - 80's Vamps Rock
So this movie will bring you back to why you like Vampires in the 80's in the first place, plus its a great character study of the ever evolving Jim Carrey. The movie is fun, the music is all out 80's cheese, but hey, that's what makes it so enjoyable. Buy it, Enjoy it, Sink your Teeth into it.
Rating: - Hilarious 80's vamp comedy
What else can you say? It was funny as all get out. And it's Jim Carrey!
Rating: - Funny forever!
I first saw this movie when I was about 10 years old, all the way back in 1995, and I've been watching this movie every October, or whenever it comes on, ever since. I love it! It's funny, good campy, sexy, and Jim Carrey was, have to say it, very handsome!
