Lauren Hutton, Jim Carrey, Karen Kopins and Cleavon Little star in this 1985 horror comedy. This begins with a vampire countess (Hutton) sending her vampires to seek virgin blood before Halloween so she can retain her youthful beauty. Carrey (The Mask) plays California teen virgin, Mark Kendall who wants to have sex with his girlfriend, Robin Pierce (Kopins) who isn't quite ready and he becomes frustrated. After he decides to go with his pals, Russ (Skip Lackey) and Jamie (Thomas Ballatore) to meet girls, he becomes desired by the Countess. Mark gets bitten by her and his behavior changes. Robin, Russ and Jamie learn what's happening to him and try to save him from becoming a vampire. The late, Little (Blazing Saddles) plays flamboyant vampire, Sebastian who works for The Countess. Though it has a bit of corny moments, this isn't a bad 80's vampire/horror comedy with a good cast & score I recommend.
