Wes Craven and Eddie Murphy team up for the dark horror-comedy Vampire in Brooklyn. In a basic Dracula tale, a vampire named Maximillian comes to Brooklyn in search of a dhampir and attempts to seduce her into joining him as a creature of the night. Murphy gives a great performance (in all three of his roles) and is able to be a cool kind of frightening. Angela Bassett however, is awful and doesn’t work at all. And Kadeem Hardison, is in another film entirely. There’s no consistency to the tone and the storytelling is incredibly poor. A mess from top to bottom, Vampire in Brooklyn is complete garbage.
Nothing in this movie works and to top it off there was a death on set. Disaster at all levels. RIP Sonja Davis
Its unfortunate this movie never got a sequal with Julius as the lead.
6/10
Better than I remember
And I found myself more entertained than
I thought I would be.
I was chuckling
all the way through.
I've seen
Worse
Much, much
Worse.

this film didn't know whether it wanted to be a comedy or a horror, and so was neither.
but i didnt hate it, so I guess it wasn't terrible
