Hadrina The movie's neither hopeful in contrived ways, nor hopeless in different contrived ways. Somehow it manages to be wonderful

Lidia Draper Great example of an old-fashioned, pure-at-heart escapist event movie that doesn't pretend to be anything that it's not and has boat loads of fun being its own ludicrous self.

Deanna There are moments in this movie where the great movie it could've been peek out... They're fleeting, here, but they're worth savoring, and they happen often enough to make it worth your while.

Bob This is one of the best movies I’ve seen in a very long time. You have to go and see this on the big screen.

Wuchak RELEASED IN 1995 and directed by Anne Goursaud, "Embrace of the Vampire" is an erotic drama/romance about a college freshman (Alyssa Milano) who is haunted and seduced by a vampire (Martin Kemp), which transforms her from virginal to darkly sultry.I thought this was going to be a 90's version of "Twilight" (2008), but the production quality is of the Lifetime movie level with an emphasis on erotica (softcore). Alyssa obviously wanted to shed her chaste kid-star image from Who's the Boss and she does so as she's shown top nude and almost naked on several occasions (I should specify that no one's genitals are ever shown). Some dreamlike sequences are awkwardly hedonistic and mere excuses for erotic semi-nudity. The film starts weak with an inferior rip-off of the Dracula's three brides' seduction of Jonathan Harker in "Bram Stoker's Dracula" (1992).As far as the story goes, I like the coming-of-age at college element with Harold Pruett playing the likable beau and Jordan Ladd the prissy biyatch. Charlotte Lewis is on hand as a photographer who's interested in something more than merely photographing Milano's character. Meanwhile Jennifer Tilly has a small role as an oversexed pub patron. So there's some good in this movie that makes it worthwhile but, for me, the good is canceled out by the semi-porn elements.THE MOVIE RUNS 1 hour, 32 minutes and was shot at Shattuck-St. Mary's School (a college-prep boarding school) in Faribault, Minnesota.GRADE: C-

trashgang While reading old Fangoria magazines I came across an article about this flick that it should be a must see because it's all about vampires on an erotic way and that the director Anne Goursaud was going to make a spin-off of Poison Ivy called Lily. It never came that far and I can understand why because this flick here is a big failure.There's a bit of a vampire walking around and the first minute looked great but once we move towards nowadays this flick turns into a boring flick. There's not that much of vampirism going on, the only thing we have is a catholic 17 year old girl ( Alyssa Milano) turning into a nympho, and that's what you will get, turning into a sexy looking college socks wearing mini skirted chick showing it off for the viewer, she will have lesbian sex, strips down for the camera (unwilling), having gang bangs and does show a lot of her body, no this isn't horror this is just Alyssa showing her naked body over and over again. Like Martin Kemp (the vampire) should sing with his band Spandau Ballet, 'much is true'.Gore 0/5 Nudity 2/5 Effects 0,5/5 Story 2/5 Comedy 0/5

tbills2 I had no idea Alyssa Milano's boobs were so nice. How could I've known? I'd never seen 'em before! I want to be with them.Embrace of the Vampire is one of the great American nude flicks with an also great American nude actress, the beautiful and the lovely and the talented Alyssa Milano. I love Alyssa Milano. She is so incredibly beautiful. She's so hot! I mean some girls in movies on screen are hot and off screen are hot as well but Alyssa Milano is like even hotter than other really hot actresses and even more super sweet on and off the screen. Holy mother, Alyssa Milano is the one for me, you guys. I love you, Alyssa! She's the best. Turns out, she's the boss, too.This B-movie came out in 1995? Why does it feel like it came out in the 16th century? The 16th century with telephones and cameras and modern-day lighting. Oh, and vampires are in it, too!This more than just entertaining skin pic is very good, very quality, nice and erotic, quite hypnotic and super seductive, intensely lustful, really cheesy, and very, very popular. And it's not all these things because of Mr. Kemp, except for the really cheesy part. Just playing. It's because of Alyssa Milano, dude! She's freaking bad! She's really, freaking bad.

a_baron Vampires may be the living dead, but if you can sit through this one without taking at least three or four breaks you're not living dead, you're brain dead. The theme is far from new: age old vampire seeks his reincarnated virgin. How he becomes a vampire in the first place is silly, then we jump forward a couple of hundred years or so, and we are on a college campus where leading man and bad guy Martin Kemp is pursuing the virginal Alyssa Milano. Kemp is still best known for being one quarter of new romantics Spandau Ballet. He is also not a bad actor, but even Tom Hanks, Marlon Brando, Laurence Olivier and Al Pacino melded together couldn't pull this one off. Rubbish plot and script aside, this is a film that starts off with some pretence to Gothic horror, then decides it wants to become lesbian porn, then simply porn, and finally degenerates into farce as the campus virgin smokes her first cigarette, when suddenly she is not so sweet and pure. There is nothing wrong with using dream or nightmare sequences in a film, but there are ways to indicate this. If a character who has been murdered appears in a later scene, is this person now a vampire, or did the dastardly deed take place only in the damsel's head? That is assuming she was even in that scene. Confused? Who wouldn't be!This has been called a B Movie; in truth there are not enough letters in even the Tamil alphabet to rate this garbage, and it is not so much the embrace of the vampire as his kiss of death.
