Editorial Review:

Amazon.com:
This is the movie that was supposed to make Jim Carrey a star--in 1985, no less. Perhaps it's no wonder that it took him until the 1990s (and In Living Color): this bloodless vampire comedy almost sank his movie career before it began. Carrey plays an innocent L.A. teen, the unlikely object of the affections of slinky Lauren Hutton, a long-lived vampire who needs the blood of a virgin to stay young. So, she woos the unsuspecting, naive young Valley guy. But most of the jokes fall flat, and only when Carrey cuts loose briefly and lets his wild side show do we get a glimpse of the future Ace Ventura. --Marshall Fine

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Once Bitten
I like hutton for some reason. and Jim is the man! hilarious 80s movie with a twist.The butler is super funny and reminds me of the don't worry be happy guy or the butler on fresh prince(a show I loathe) good movie and one of jim's earliest. For any Carrey's fan good to watch or rent.



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Twice Shy doesn't apply
Pay attention Twilight fans; this is how you do it. Once Bitten is a lighthearted twist on the traditional vampire tale that strays away from the dark side of vampirism, and produces a cute but clever movie good for all ages.

A vampire countess (Lauren Hutton) desperately needs virgin blood in order to stay young and maintain the powers and benefits of being a vampire - one of which is eternal beauty. Lucky for her, Mark Kendall (Jim Carrey) - a somewhat goofy, gangly teenager with ... Read More



Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - A Vampire Story that Doesn't Scare
The film begins in a modern kitchen. A servant brings a vintage drink to the countess. She has a problem in the late 20th century: how to find a virgin for her special needs. The burgers are cooked with a special sauce. Mark and his buddies visit the Hollywood entertainment district - in an ice cream truck! Too good to be true? "I don't feel good about this." There is a comic misunderstanding with an angry husband. Mark leaves with the Countess. This is not your grandpa's Castle Dracula. No make-up ... Read More
