I couldn't believe the rating this movie got here so I had to write, this was a movie that opitimised every aspect of the eighties (including really bad dress sense)from the troubled/angst teenager, to the mad thinks he's doing-good scientist and put it all togother in a fun relaxing and romantic teenage movie(no shlock horror typical of the era). I honestly think that anyone sits down and watches this movie for what it was and is "a rom/com" they will enjoy, even now when it looks a bit dated.......Honestly go rent buy scrape this movie up or out of the cupboard and put your feet up grab some popcorn or beer or possibly pigs bloods (sorry couldn't help a reference to the movie) and enjoy.................

This 1987 teen comedy definitely embodies everything that the late 1980s had to offer in terms of movies of this type. When I sat down to watch "My Best Friend is a Vampire" here in 2021, I didn't even know about the movie, and I hadn't seen it before now in 2021. But I must admit that now that I have seen it, this definitely was an enjoyable movie. "My Best Friend is a Vampire" is a light-hearted teen comedy with a vampire theme as its focal point, but still managing to put in elements such as transition to adulthood and all the problems that being a late teen comes with. The storyline told in "My Best Friend is a Vampire", as written by Tab Murphy, was actually a rather enjoyable and nicely paced story, not to mention an easily followed storyline and one that you quickly get immersed into. And with this being a 1987 movie, then you will see some familiar faces, provided you grew up watching movies and TV, of course. With the likes of David Warner, Cheryl Pollak and Rene Auberjonois. I will say that the definitely did have a good ensemble of actors and actresses to portray the various roles in this movie, and that the performers did good jobs. All in all, then "My Best Friend is a Vampire" is an enjoyable teen comedy, and one that is as watchable today, as I bet it was back in 1987. This movie definitely haven't felt the passing of time. But such is it with vampires, I suppose. I am rating "My Best Friend is a Vampire" a six out of ten stars.

Today I watched an incredibly awkward comedy that everyone forgot existed This movie is not very funny, I laughed 2 times but they were genuinely funny parts of the movie. I smiled a few times. The main character has a level of charm to him and I can't say I was ALWAYS bored. There were some payoffs throughout the film, though people act incredibly irrational and don't do anything a normal human would do in the situation they are presented with. I was getting frustrated by that But uh, there's a lot wrong with this film. The writing is sloppy and when a joke doesn't land it can come off as incredibly awkward and forced. The subtext is okay, but it's so ham fisted that it's even used as a joke. One of the main characters is literally just useless and is only there so the subtext isn't more domtext if you catch my drift. There's characters brought up and never shown again until this one particular moment where they come out of the blue, okay. All of the actors in this movie look like if you tried to draw other actors from memory, tell me the main actor doesn't look like Jim Carey and his daddy doesn't look like Sean Penn and Gene Wilder had a baby. This is not a criticism I just kept thinking that. The acting wasn't something I really had a major problem with, it did seem like some actors were seriously underacting at certain points, and the main actress was not very convincing. The music is absolutely horrendous, the original songs that is. I cannot stand the songs it's like nails on a chalk board. The sound design in this movie really wasn't anything to write home about. Cinematography was okay for some scenes but that's not through the whole film. One time the stunt doubles looked like completely different people, that's kinda distracting. The action scene was not the worst things I've ever seen, but again not anything to write home about. If my boyfriend didn't keep me company this film would have probably been an incredibly dull affair. Lowered my rating from a low 4 cuz this was kinda bad and not something I ever wanna revisit, it's just kinda a dull comedy. High 3/10.

What do you do to have sex when you are a teen-ager. This movie shows what might happen if you aren't careful. Not AIDS worse, Vampirism. This movie is full of humor, and fun.

This movie has to be in the to ten classic examples of a great 80s scary/corny/funny/stylish movie it screams the 80s. The acting wasn't bad could of been better but it all worked out. Fun twist to vampires by being able to go out during the day and not having vampires evil people. The cars are awesome looking too I have not seen a VW Rabbit convertible in a long time nor a good looking BMW that they wrecked halfway during the movie which looked better than my first car. I thought it was interesting that it was filmed in Houston and not in LA like most films are. In conclusion I gave this film a 8/10 because it was limitedly released on DVD and very hard to find.

Granted I only know of one other movie that fits into this genre and that is the Jim Carrey movie "Once Bitten". This one though is better than that one as it is just a bit funnier and has a better and more likable plot to it. This one has a teen going to the house of a girl for what he thinks is going to be a one night stand kind of thing, as it turns out though the person he is seeing is a vampire and he is soon infected and must now feast on blood. Thankfully, it does not have to be human blood as a rather friendly vampire teaches him the ways of living a rather nice existence as a vampire without having to drink the blood of humans. Unfortuanately, a sort of Van Helsing type hunter of vampires who saw him and his friend at the girl's house where he was bitten, however, he thinks it is the guy's friend and not him that has been bitten and turned into a vampire. The guy also is having girl trouble as he even tries to use vampire hypnotism to get the girl he likes. All this makes for an very funny comedy that really is rather lighthearted. So while not perfect, it makes for a fun film to watch.

Oh not another vampire comedy! Actually, this one isn't half bad. Robert Sean Leonard plays a Houston high school student who one night has a fling with a sexy babe. The only thing is, this sexy babe just happens to be a creature of the night, and she turns him into one. At first, he refuses to accept his new status as a vampire, but a kindly old man (Rene Auberjonois) helps him. But there remains the question of how to deal with two vampire hunters. "My Best Friend Is a Vampire" isn't really anything special, but it's good for a few laughs. And the idea of a vampire in Houston...well, we know that there are certain vampiric people from there!

Yes, it is campy. But it is supposed to be a comedy. The movie is very entertaining and fun to watch. Reminds you of high school. Especially if you went to high school during the eighties. The jokes are cute. The scenes are embarrassing to the characters. Reminisent of high school angst. Which makes it good entertainment. The story can be a good metaphor for other things if you really think about it. My 12 year old daughter likes the movie too. So it can cross generation gaps easily. It is a movie that anyone can let their child under the age of 12 watch. Just get some popcorn and enjoy it.

I saw this recently on a faded old VHS tape, and remembered it dimly. Looking at it now, it seems charming. When it was first released, it was recognized by pretty much everyone as a spoof of coming out as a gay teenager. To hammer the point home, the mother is seen reading a paperback copy of "1 Teenager In 10", the most popular coming out book of the time. David Warner hams it up as the persecuting vampire hunter [= gay-hating evangelist], who is of course a self-loathing closet case. The list of sight gags and in-jokes that were included to make sure nobody missed the point would be too long to go into. The producers were having some good-natured fun, and hoping, no doubt, to lighten-up as well as to enlighten. But I have no clue how a teenage audience would look at this film, nowadays. In some places, where there is education and culture, the terrifying ordeals that gay teens had to go through are a thing of the past. But I'm sure there are plenty of dark, nasty corners of our continent where it's just as bad as it always was.

I like the inclusive subtlety in regards to the parents acceptance of the idea that there son is gay. Not to say he is, you will have to see the movie to find out for sure. For the late 80's, their ability to include this element using a positive note for a change is refreshing and unexpected. Thumbs up to Jimmy Huston for a job well done. As well as the writers, too.
