Once Bitten (1985)

But this one was terrible despite Jim Carey. Not to mention Hutton being an ugly vampire. Funny at certain moments, cliche at most. BTW what Vampire surrounds their self with white and has a pink (indicates blood within oneself) face and body. Vampires are devoid of blood hense the need for it.Dumb and lacks a lot of comedy for a comedic movie.

Unbelievable. Witless, coarse, crude, offensive, horrendously directed... This was produced by Samuel Goldwyn Jr. His father had been one of the two 'classiest' producers in old Hollywood; he not only made many superb dramas -- "prestige pictures", they used to call the type of dramas he'd make -- he also made excellent comedies, and he'd hired the very best writers and directors (Billy Wilder, George S. Kaufman, Howard Hawks. etc.) to make them. He must have turned over in his grave to see his name connected with this garbage.The director has zero idea of how to make a scene 'cook', to develop chemistry between his actors, to bring out whatever humor there might be in a situation... nothing. He seems to have spent most of his career grinding out sitcom episodes -- second-rate ones, at that -- which is a very different thing than doing what Hawks or Wilder or McCarey did. The climactic chase is embarrassing even by boneheaded-'80's-comedy standards. This seems to be his only feature-directing credit, and you can see why.Re the cast, Jim Carrey does the best he can, but he is obviously hamstrung by a director who told him to just do the script as written, like television -- and the script as written was just awful. Cleavon Little is wasted. The only saving grace is Lauren Hutton, who is sexy as hell and seems to be having a good time despite everything. It's also fun as a time capsule of its era -- the clothes, the music, etc. But outside of that and Lauren Hutton, it's an utter stinkeroo.

In Los Angeles, the virgin college student Mark Kendall (Jim Carrey) is unsuccessfully trying to get into his girlfriend Robin Pierce (Karen Kopins) paints. He decides to go to a bar in Hollywood with his also virgin friends Russ (Skip Lackey) and Jamie (Thomas Ballatore) to flirt and score. Meanwhile, the 400 year-old vampire Countess (Lauren Hutton) and her driver and butler Sebastian (Cleavon Little) are seeking out a virgin lad to keep her beauty and youth appearance. The Countess needs to feed three times on a virgin before the Halloween that is close otherwise she will look older. When the Countess stumbles with Mark in the bar, she brings Mark home and seduces him. Mark changes his behavior and soon he realizes that he is turning into a vampire. Is there any chance to save Mark? "Once Bitten" is one of my favorite movies ever and I do not know how many times I have watched it. The plot is very funny and Lauren Hutton is impressively beautiful and sexy. This movie for me is another gem from the 80's, maybe one of the best decades of the American Cinema history. My vote is seven.Title (Brazil): "Procura-se Rapaz Virgem" ("Seeking a Virgin Lad")

Superstar comedian Jim Carrey probably wishes this 1985 movie would quietly vanish in the sunlight. "Once Bitten" pairs the "Ace Ventura" star with the 400 year old Countess (sexy Lauren Hutton of "Gator") who is seeking a virgin to maintain her vampire immortality. More than anything else in the world, Mark Kendall (Jim Carrey) wants to get laid. The late Roger Ebert would probably have classified this disposable comedy as a horny teenager movie. Since Mark attends high school then this would be a correct classification. Before he runs into the delectable Countess at a speed dial dating bar in Hollywood, Mark struggles to get his high school sweetheart, Robin Pearce (Karen Kopins of "Creator"), to spread them and grin. She is deeply in love with her boyfriend Mark and prefers their dual deflowering to be a special occasion. The Countess employs a gay butler, Sebastian (Cleavon Little of "Blazing Saddles"), who tries to keep her as well as all the other former lovers in her house, on the straight-and-narrow. Meantime, Mark and his two pals, Jamie (Thomas Ballatore of "Detenator") and Russ (Skip Lackey of "Mindbenders"), hang tight with him as he tries to get his ashes hauled. Eventually, our heroine visits an old book store and learns female vampires like to sink their fangs in the spot closest to the genitalia. Robin ask Jamie and Russ to see if Mark has bite marks on his upper thigh. The guys try to do this in the gym shower and botch things so badly that somebody yells "Fags in the shower" and everybody panics. The nude scenes are as chaste as you can imagine. Nothing reproductive is shown except for the bottom curves of buttocks. Our heroine Robin uses the F-word once. After Robin begins to take Mark seriously, she decides to end the affair that Mark is having against his will with the Countess by having sex with him. They wind up using an available coffin as the vampires pursue them through the Countess's abode. This cute but disposable comedy is okay for one viewing. Director Howard Storm keeps things light and breezy; he has confined is directorial talents largely with television situation comedies. Scenarist Dimitri Villard wrote one other movie, director Richard Attenborough's "In Love and War," while co-scenarist David Hines penned the screenplay for "BachelorMan."
