A lot of fun.
This is a coming of age storyline that you've seen in one form or another for decades. It takes a truly unique voice to make yet another one worth watching.
Ok... Let's be honest. It cannot be the best movie but is quite enjoyable. The movie has the potential to develop a great plot for future movies
There are moments in this movie where the great movie it could've been peek out... They're fleeting, here, but they're worth savoring, and they happen often enough to make it worth your while.
Down on his luck night shift paramedic Jack's (an excellent and engaging performance by Jason Mewes) heretofore miserable lot in life seems to perk up after he meets and falls for lovely and mysterious young lady Danika (a fine and appealing portrayal by insanely foxy brunette Erica Cox). The only problem is that Danika turns out to be a deadly and insatiable vampire. Director Harv Glazer, working from a quirky and witty script by Tyler Levine and Tim McGregor, relates the engrossing oddball story at a steady pace, milks the hysterically funny sense of cheerfully rude'n'raunchy humor for plenty of belly laughs, maintains a likably offbeat tongue-in-cheek tone, and delivers several sidesplitting moments of inspired pitch-black comedy. Moreover, Glazer also wrings some pathos out of the doomed central toxic romance and makes a valid point that there's only so far a person can go for another person. The often foul-mouthed dialogue manages to be hilariously profane throughout. Mewes and Cox make for for winning leads, with Cox in particular a definite stand-out with her sympathetic characterization as the sweet, yet lethal Danika. Richard Fitzpatrick lends terrific support as Jack's boorish, jolly, and concerned buddy Roger. Simon Shohet's sharp cinematography expertly uses shadowy lighting to striking stylish effect. As a tasty extra plus, the delectable Mrs. Cox bears her blazing hot body with pleasing regularity. A real hoot.
Jason Mewes (Clerks, Jay and Silent Bob, Mallrats) is a para medic who finds a girl in trouble (Erica Cox). Trouble is, she has a bloody secret.The problem is that Danika (Cox) has some really strange foreplay issues. In order not to hurt Jack (Mewes), she has to have her foreplay with someone else before they have sex. Of course, when she has her foreplay with Maya (Amy Lynn Grover), it really gets interesting. Now we have two gorgeous naked babes in bed covered in blood.Jack is really flipping out, because he has to clean up the mess. The body count is really rising.How is he going to solve his problem? Normal women are tough enough, but a vampire?Really funny.
Jack (Jason Mewes) is a paramedic working the night shift who is depressed by his lack of girl-meeting opportunities after being dumped by his girlfriend. He spends most of his time complaining about his lot to his older workmate (Richard Fitzpatrick - who looks a lot like Rod Steiger here) who is worryingly obsessed with all things anal, until he discovers one hot - but blood-splattered - chick (Erica Cox) lying in the rubbish outside his apartment. Jack takes her to his apartment to tend her wounds and an intimacy grows between them even as Jack begins to have doubts about her nocturnal habits I can't recall seeing many vampire films that focus on the effect of a newly-acquired status as a vampire on the romantic relationship of the person afflicted and their loved one, so I suppose this cheap direct-to-video horror is to be applauded on that count. Sadly, the subject is handled in such a dull, repetitive manner that there's little else to recommend it.The film's lack of budget is obvious from the murky lighting - even Jack's apartment is in perpetual darkness - and the negligible number of locations, but a small budget has never been a drawback to a talented, creative director. In fact, it can very often serve as a source of inspiration simply because the lack of money calls upon a certain amount of ingenuity and creativity on the parts of the writer and director. Unfortunately, neither party are capable of rising to the challenge with any authority, even though the film starts off quite promisingly with some telling moments in the interplay between Jack and his older colleague (before, that is, the anal references become boringly frequent). Ironically, it's when Danika, the sultry, recently-turned vampiress appears on the scene that the plot becomes mired in the repetitive doldrums from which it never recovers. By the final reel, the script has deteriorated to the point where Jack and Roger (Fitzpatrick) are shouting every line to each other, and inserting an expletive in every sentence in a futile attempt to inject some excitement into the lacklustre proceedings..
A great way to kill some time... Watch this movie and you'll not regret it! It has the usual elements of vampire movies... seduction, carnal appetites, the innocents, the guilty... but in this one there are scenes that imprinted themselves into my consciousness probably forever. The image of a beautiful nude female vampire covered with blood and thrusting on top of her deceased victim is so surrealistic and and unforgettable I had to break my silence and write a spoiler about it. The makers of this film obviously devoted some thought to the dark world of vampires. Or maybe they were just having fun with it... in either case, it's a must see! If you want reality, turn off your TV and go outside... but if you want to be entertained, watch this one! Hopefully it will someday be released in the US without being cut to death... :)
