Midnight Kiss

Vampire movies seem to be broken into two categories these days. One is the woman gets bitten and turns into a vampire and a lot of horror ensues. Two is the woman gets bitten and then a lot of softcore sex ensues.

After watching this movie in which it was category one, I long for category 2. This vampire movie was very dumb and I regret ever watching it.

A must have in any video collection. It had some of the best B-rate actors; except for Gregory A. Greer, who I think was the one to save this movie from a total disaster. The Vampire played his role realistically with a touch of comedy in the face of immortal loneliness. The sad demise of Gregory's character was a turn-off but he was one actor you just had to rewind and watch again, again, and again. I would love to see him in a better movie sometime soon, but for now this awesome movie will work just fine.

I am a lover of what's referred to by movie enthusiasts as "movies so bad, they're good", and MIDNIGHT KISS fits perfectly in that category for me. It's cheesy. The acting is so-so. The dialogue is amusing. There's some decent blood and gore effects. And it has vampires! My favorite horror movie monsters. Is my 7 rating too high? Probably to most people. But I was close to giving it an 8; it was that entertaining to me.

I just actually watched the movie, but I was sitting here reading other comments and people were wondering what happened to the guy who played the vampire so I did some research and this is what I found. It is a posting that he did on another site.

I found it on IDN.com. There were also some tour dates listed.

Hotdamn, what a very cheesy vampire movie (there's only one vampire running around in it, by the way) that can't compete with its modest budgeted counterparts produced around the same time; think about the decent "Children Of The Night" (1991) and the so-so "Son Of Darkness: To Die For II" (1991). Nevertheless "Midnight Kiss" is a fun quickie with some boobies and gore (exploding head!), but that's about it. As an early nineties horror outing, "Midnight Kiss" does manage to entertain for most of its running time and it's worth a watch for vampire enthusiasts (I had fun with it and there's worse Z-grade vampire fodder out there). But if you're looking for a good horror movie, then best look elsewhere.
