My 80s favorites, Chris Makepeace, Robert Russler, and Gedde Wantanabe star as three college guys who visit a sleazy city bar full of blood-lusting vampires. When one of the buddies allows his hormones to get the best of him, and he gets transformed into a vampire, the other two guys befriend a quirky girl to help them escape.
Grace Jones makes an exceptionally eerie exotic vampire, though the special effects looks like most vampire movies (like the make-up they consistently used in the Buffy series). Not really meant to be a scary feature, but Gedde Wantanabe, as the nerdy college friend who doesn't take much to get drunk, adds the much needed humor to pull away from too much mediocrity. Without the much scare, of course, you would definitely need something to hold your attention, if of course you weren't tempted to see it in the first place because of the familiar 80s faces (including Dedee Pfeiffer). Not bad, but unless you add to the cult following, it may only be something you want to watch once just to see a somewhat new wave vampire feature.
