American Vampire [Slim Case] Reviews:
With no blood, gore, or nudity, this film exists only to be laughed at
2006-08-19 - Imagine, if you will, a low-budget horror film with a vampire called Moondoggie (which is so much easier to say that Count Eric von Zipper), a vampire-hunter called the Big Kahuna, almost no blood whatsoever, a soundtrack of we-can't-actually-pay-you quality, and barely enough plot to hold 99 minutes of low-quality video together. By all means, throw Carmen Electra in there, but you're still left with one of the worst vampire films ever made. For the love of Dracula, there's not even any nudity in this film. Carmen's hot - there's no doubt about that - but she doesn't exactly get a lot of camera time in this stinker, and you can see plenty more of her in a wide selection of magazine pictorials than you'll ever get to gawk at here (on an even more deflating note, she has a body double in this film - now, I ask you, why on earth would Carmen Electra ever need a body double?). Who made this film, anyway? The whole point of making an atrocious horror film is to get some attractive women naked. I thought everyone knew that.

So here's the story. For some insane reason, the parents of Frankie (Trevor Lissauer) leave him home alone all summer while they tour Europe, seemingly unaware that a teenager with a best friend named Bogie (Danny Hitt) cannot possibly be trustworthy. A mere one day later, Frankie finds himself hosting Moondoggie, a stranger he and Bogie met on the beach, his babe-alicious friends Katrina (Debra Xavier) and Sulka (Carmen Electra), and Frankie's disgusting lackey Bruno (Sydney Lassick) in his home. These increasingly unwelcome guests basically take over the whole house. Despite the fact that lost pet notices seem to appear outside right after each of Bruno's amazingly bloody meals, trash bags are used to cover all of the windows, weird little knick-knacks like Satanic crosses start popping up, and three coffins suddenly appear in his parent's bedroom, it takes Frankie a while to figure out that he may in fact be suffering from a vampire infestation. With Bogie incapable of seeing anything wrong with Moondoggie and his hot little vampirettes, Frankie has only one option - to seek the help of Dr. Van Helsingmeister (Adam West), better known as the Big Kahuna, a surfer dude trying to live up to his family name.

Were it not for the presence of Carmen Electra in this film, it would have already fallen into the trash pit of putrid cinema (it was originally released in 1997 as An American Vampire Story). It's not even bad in a funny way - it's just bad, period. As long as there are bargain bins, though, there will be guys like me who see Carmen Electra adorning a DVD cover and decide to give the film a chance. Just be forewarned: the plot is really weak, the acting is below average (including that of Adam West, who is no stranger to thoroughly awful films), the special effects - which are few and far between - are amateurish at best, the filmmakers obviously had a restraining order thrown on logic before shooting began, and the list just goes on. The only people who should subject themselves to American Vampire are those of us obsessed with watching as many bad horror films as we can get our hands on.

You got vamps in your crib?
2006-05-08 - This movie is about a group of vampires who crash at a guy's house while his parents are away. As their odd behavior becomes an increasing inconvenience, he elicits the help of a professional vampire hunter. Van Helsingmeister, played by Batman's Adam West. If this all seems like a cool, campy idea, I would agree.

The movie drags on slowly during the first 75% of the movie as dogs and cats in the neighborhood disappear, etc. By the time the vampire hunter enters the picture, the movie is beyond saving. The final half hour was a last chance for the movie to start getting good, but, it does not.

Great idea and movie concept, but the script just falls way short in keeping the action advancing and giving some action at the end the audience is waiting for. The acting was pretty bad, but Carmen Electra actually did a credible job as the seductive vampiress. Overall, I give it 2 stars for a good concept, but this one is strictly for the diehard vampire movie fans.

Bad
2006-02-24 - This is one of the worst films I've ever seen. Parts of it also really creeped me out. The plot was lame. And not even funny lame.
I guess the best thing about it was Carmen Electra.

WHERE'S CARMEN?!
2005-11-24 - Ok you should already know this movie is cheezy and bad.
It's actually horrible to the point of where it's funny which is why i gave it two stars and not one. However,my biggest problem with this movie is not the bad acting,the horrendous effects or the nonsensical plot. It's the fact that the gorgeous Carmen Electra graces the cover of the dvd/video and gets supposed 'top billing.' Well thats a farce. Carmen is in this movie for like 2 or 3 minutes and thats it. She was obviously put on the cover to try and sell the damn thing which is a trick that "B" movie producers and creators pull. Another example is "Naked souls" with Pamela Anderson on the cover,but in reality she wasn't in the movie that much and also wasn't naked either. I have that one.
But don't blink during this trash-fest or you will miss Carmen who is probably the reason you wanted to check this out to begin with. If you want to see a very good Carmen flick,look no further than "Mating habits of the earthbound human." If you actually don't care about Carmen,this movie has a lot of the original "Batman",Adam West, and people you've never heard of.
