Title: 80's Vampire Comedies Post by: crackers on June 05, 2011, 05:11:55 AM I watched both My Best Friend's A Vampire and Once Bitten the other day. I hadn't seen them since they came out and forgot how good they were.
Can you guys recommend any more? Title: Re: 80's Vampire Comedies Post by: Psycho Circus on June 05, 2011, 06:58:03 AM Transylvania 6-5000

Title: Re: 80's Vampire Comedies Post by: 66Crush on June 10, 2011, 09:18:05 PM The original "Buffy the Vampire Slayer" movie is actually quite campy. It's nothing like the TV series. "Fright Night" has some funny moments even though it's not a comedy, same with "The Lost Boys." "Dracula: Dead and Loving it" is from the early 90's but it has Leslie Neilson in it and it's hilarious.
Title: Re: 80's Vampire Comedies Post by: crackers on June 11, 2011, 07:03:40 AM I really like the original Buffy film, especially the Paul Rubens death scene.
Title: Re: 80's Vampire Comedies Post by: AndyC on June 11, 2011, 10:55:22 AM Just a bit before the 80s, but Love at First Bite is pretty funny, especially Arte Johnson as Renfield.

Haven't seen it in quite some time since I moved on to dvd and packed away my vhs collection.

Once Bitten (1985) Title: Re: 80's Vampire Comedies Post by: Psycho Circus on June 14, 2011, 12:15:21 PM ^ Crackers has already seen that one.
Title: Re: 80's Vampire Comedies Post by: JaseSF on June 14, 2011, 09:56:35 PM Oops!! Sorry! Like AHD always tells me, I do need to read and re-read (my memory's terrible!) posts over and over again. Yeah I need an embarrassed smiley...
Title: Re: 80's Vampire Comedies Post by: Doggett on June 18, 2011, 06:38:14 AM Fright Night seems like tghe obvious one to me.
But Grace Jones was fangtastic in Vamp. Does The Lost Boys count? I have the soundtrack to tghat and thats really all I remember of it. Not as big a fan as most people. Title: Re: 80's Vampire Comedies Post by: Psycho Circus on June 18, 2011, 08:05:21 PM http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CmNP0OlfQ7c
Title: Re: 80's Vampire Comedies Post by: melvinthemopboy3 on June 21, 2011, 11:28:31 AM This came out in '90, but James Bond III's Def By Temptation was a really interesting movie. Sort of like if Spike Lee made a vampire movie (not quite as good as that description, but you get the idea). Definitely worth watching if you're into offbeat vampire films.
Title: Re: 80's Vampire Comedies Post by: WilliamWeird1313 on June 23, 2011, 06:01:31 AM I want to recommend Vampires On Bikini Beach. But I also don't want to actually RECOMMEND Vampires On Bikini Beach. So instead I'll just say I'm glad you enjoyed My Best Friend Is A Vampire (it's a long-held personal favorite of mine), and I'll leave you with the BEST scene from Once Bitten: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-jnlu6irju8 PS> Karen Kopins is hawt! She is the one reason, the ONLY reason, I recently went and paid good money for a VHS copy of Archie: Return To Riverdale at a local thrift store recently. God, I love that woman. I wish she'd done more movies. ::sigh:: ::swoon:: Title: Re: 80's Vampire Comedies Post by: Psycho Circus on June 29, 2011, 06:01:20 AM Beverly Hills Vamp (1989)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-kdqHejRQQA I have way too many Fred Olen Ray movies :lookingup: Title: Re: 80's Vampire Comedies Post by: crackers on June 30, 2011, 11:59:56 AM I watched Vamp the other night and loved it. Especially the surprise of Gedde Watanabe.
