Vampire's Kiss

Nic Cage being Nic Cage in a very 80's goofy movie

Cage fans will find a lot to appreciate about his completely insane performance that borders on Kabuki acting in its hyper expression. Setting aside a fascinating performance from one of Hollywood's most unique actors, this film drags, has a weak score, shows some very bad 80s camera work and is completely forgettable. Then again, describing a Nic Cage movie without his performance is like summarizing Halloween without Michael Myers. He's pretty much the entire point of the movie. Again, if you're not a big Cage fan, save yourself 90 mins of late 80s generic filmmaking. Otherwise grab the popcorn, you're in for an unforgettable treat!!

Confusing unwatchable movie. Waste of 2 hours you will never get back. Dickless Cage is his usual manic self. Is this a psychological thriller or just a plotless piece of trash?

So… what the actual f*** did I just watch? There is a really good reason this movie is memed to oblivion that’s for sure!

Strange, thought provoking, and entertainingly squeamish story of descent into madness. Main reason to watch is Nicolas Cages acting in those iconic scenes. Some of the attitudes, language a little dated. Liked Renfield better.

One of my favorite movies. It's really dramatic and creepy and touching and even pretty funny, but definitely not a comedy; it should have never been marketed that way. More like a bizarre psychological study of how work and sex addiction courts madness.

Good funny movie Can't believe this was the prequel to renfield

Campy Nic Cage perfection. You have to go into it knowing it’s over the top and appreciate that bizarre lunacy. Cracks me up every time.

Cage should have won an Oscar for his performance.

5/10. 55/100. | One of the only performances where you can say it's both really good and really bad. 😅
