I hate to say it, but when I saw the film back in the early 1990s, I knew it was special. Seeing the promos at the time, and finally the film itself, you could see that the movie would spawn a franchise. For those of you who enjoy the series, this is the blueprint. On its own merits, the motion picture is satisfying in that it provides humor and action in a blend that was cutting edge for its time. It is funnier than Fright Night, and Buffy and her buddies predate the comedy Clueless. Yes, it was a comedic spin on vampire movies of the time, and it's one to die for.
