Summary: Carrey's Best Movie yet!
Review: Best vampire comedy that year! Watch this movie for the best comedy this centry! U might even pee in your pants!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Hey, it's the white guy from "In Living Color"!!
Review: Brief plot synopsis: A female vampire needs the blood of a virgin to stay young; she finds Mark Kendall(Jim Carrey); hijinx ensue.

I first saw this when it came on tv; at the time Jim Carrey was either a nobody or "that white guy from "In Living Color" (btw why ...isn't that on dvd yet?). Shortly after I saw this JC started getting big with movies such as "The Mask" and "Ace Ventura". With those films in mind "Once Bitten" is somewhat of a novelty. Even though it is billed as a comedy, JC's character is a far cry from the rubberfaced madman we see in the aforementioned comedies. This is the Jim Carrey we saw in "The Truman show" the man who can play a character that we just like; someone accessible enough that we could know the guy or someone like him. JC's acting is brilliant here, I do enjoy JC's other work but it's refreshing to see him in a role like this. If you're a JC diehard it's a must buy, If you're not a diehard, there's still a good chance it will be a welcome addition to your movie collection. ...

Summary: Cute, teenage, Vampire flick.
Review: Carey plays a high school guy trying to cope with his girlfriend's reluctance to go-all-the-way. To take an edge off his frustration, he goes with out with the guys and is instantly targeted by a female vampire's following. This is cute, light-hearted and happy-ending. As far as being a great vampire flick? Well, not if you like your flicks with a little venom in their bite. Enjoyable dance scenes and usual Carey style.

Summary: Brilliant!!
Review: Carrey's First film how can you not stock it

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Waste of money in general
Review: From other vampire movies and Nosfaratus too, you learn of such things as steaks and crosses. Even the love of innocent girls mixed with the dawning light. What if the shoe was on the other foot and the vampire was female?

Basically vampires are now in LA. They especially Lauren Hutton, still need virgins for biting purposes. Guess what Ice cream truck driver Jim Carrey is? This movie takes the Vampire mystique to new depths. I will not reveal the story as it is fun watching it unfold.

However a Few things to look for; for instance what does Lauren Hutton use the gap in her teeth to pull buttons off of Jim Carrey? And just what part of the anatomy must one bite to be potently effective? Then there is the shower scene, what's a little peak among friends?

So watch to see if loves conquers all or Lauren sticks Carry for the drinks.

Rating: 4 stars

Summary: Better than "My Best Friend is a Vampire"
Review: I liked this movie better than "My Best Friend is a Vampire." I think Lauren Hutton is sexy. Jim Carrey is funnier than that guy from "My Best Friend is a Vampire." If you watch only one of these two movies, make it "Once Bitten", not "My Best Friend is a Vampire."

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: MUSIC!!HELP!!!
Review: I LOVE THIS MOVIE ITS SOOO CUTE. BUT THE THING I LOVE THE MOST IS THE 80'S MUSIC.. [....]

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Great Find
Review: I was so very surprised when I saw this movie. At first I couldn't believe it was Carrey. So, young!! This is a really fun typical 80's movie. A lighter version of "The Lost Boys" per se. A must-have for the carrey fan, but otherwise, it is not necessarily a must-see. If you are a fan, but not fanatic of carrey, another movie I'd reccomend is Earth Girls Are Easy. Certainly worth a look. This movie is just good fun, and is a nice flick for a rainy day. But save your pennies, just rent.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: One for the movie night.
Review: If you want a quality vampire movie, this is not the one for you. If you're expecting the antics that you're used to from Carrey, you will also be disappointed. However, this a great movie to include when you & your friends get together for a cheesy 80's movie night. Half corny comedy, half cute love story, it meets all exepctations of a campy 80s movie. So Jim Carrey didn't get to cut up. So what. It's still good. Watch it with no more expectations than what you'd have with something like "Weird Science" and you won't be disappointed. (And Carrey is just adorable! Especially with fangs!)
