5.0 out of 5 stars One star for the movie plus four stars for Alyssa . . ., December 7, 1999
Does this movie have a plot worth watching? No. Is it a masterpiece of staging and set direction? No. Will this movie show up in a retrospective of great American 20th Century cinema? Not a chance in hell.

So what does this movie have? Well, Alyssa Milano, frequently nude, and occasionally in softcore sex scenes. Does that make it worth watching? Yes, definitely if you enjoy Alyssa Milano. Her portrayal of a naive, virginal co-ed rings a little less than true, but her seduction scene with the photographer alone is almost worth the price of the tape. The vampire orgy sequence and her dream foursome certainly round out the cost of the video. I would, however, recommend the DVD version if you're planning on buying it. The DVD's ability to have short sections run repeatedly without degrading the playback quality will prove invaluable.

5.0 out of 5 stars A must see, just to strange to pass up, July 25, 2002
By "jbridell" (New Hope, MN USA) - See all my reviews
I place this film along side "Showgirls" as a truly indispensable guilty pleasure, this film is an absolute riot, you just can't keep a straight face. It begins in "the past," one of those historicaly ambiguous time periods where folks wore armer but also had perfect hair and teeth, some guy is minding his own business, sleeping or whatever outside by a brook, it looks like one of those romance novel covers. Three buxom vampires come up out of nowhere, they look suspiciously like exotic dancers from Deja vu, or perhaps the local Hooters rented these "vampires" for the day, he doesn't put up much of a fight (neither would I) and soon we are transported to "the present day," sometime in the late 90's I assume to a school that looks a lot like Stanford. Alyssa Malano is a new student, she is a virgin and tells us so, repeatedly in conversations with her long suffering boyfriend, she is fond of crucifixes and kneels and prays a lot, the prayers do her little good however for soon the very vampire we saw in the beginning, is back, evidently he was somehow frozen in time and his coffin was transported to some old building on the college campus (a fraternity prank perhaps, the old, lets move the coffin thing) the coffin, and it's occupant, go unnoticed at this strangest of colleges, a school where there is easy parking and no students ever seem to venture out of the dorms much, at least no one sees this caped vampire walking around the school, perhaps they think he is the dean, or some new security guy, the one with the cape, who knows. Our fanged friend is not really all that interested in Alyssa's blood, he is more obsessed with her breasts, as are the cameraman, the writer, the actors and actresses and the audience, and what breast they are! This is the first time I can remember a pair of hooters having there own theme song, but they do, a special "boob anthem" is played every time poor Allissa is forced to remover her top, why she has to be topless for so much of the film is a mystery, a mystery no one gives a rats ass about, we wanted boobs and we got them. Nice boobs too. I had to feel a little for Allyssa though, she couldn't seem to understand why virtually every scene had her jugs bared, but she was a good sport about it. Most of the film takes place in "dream sequences", even though she is wide awake sometimes (at a party everyone dissapears so our heriion can meet the vampire and disrobe...again) and a total stranger, a women meets the hapless Allyssa on the campus and shows her a shiny new camera, apparently MS Malano has never seen one before and soon she is off in the studio, removing her shirt and kissing this strange women, that settles it, I am getting a camera and heading straight to the nearest college campus, right after a get a cape and some plastic fangs. This is a horror film but all the real horror seems to be on the face of Allissa Malano who seems shocked that she, and virtual everyone else, has no dialogue and that she is constantly having her breasts examined, yes it's good to be a vampire, or a film maker, I wonder if the Olsen Twins will be ready to make a "Vampire" film when they turn 18, I certainly hope so.

3.0 out of 5 stars Alyssa Milano! Mostly Nude!, August 10, 2000
By N. Dunn (Columbia, SC) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
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.

Yes, Alyssa Milano exhibits her usual abilities and nakedness. Yes, she is a hottie. However, she is far better in POISON IVY 2 (the weakest of the Ivy trilogy). Read more
