Vampire in Brooklyn
After surviving the vampire race on a Caribbean island, Maximilian tried to find another mate to share before he was finished. Max realized that there was a child born to a woman with a vampire father who was still looking for her in Brooklyn. Rita is now a grown-up girl and perhaps Maximilian is looking for her. Max tries to be courted by Rita and tries to bring her a bloody fate, but Rita may have strange dreams and actions. On the other hand, the police officer from New York continues his investigation into the murders he has caused and continues to cause.

Never funny enough to pass muster as a comedy and never scary enough (if at all) to make it as a horror movie.

Oh, Wes, what did we all do to deserve this?

Murphy's pale efforts are enough to make one fondly recall Blacula. Now that was one sucker who knew how to make a film that didn't.

Essentially little more than a romantic triangle with a 'good versus evil' twist, it's not a bad film, but it is also neither winningly funny enough to exploit Murphy's talents nor bitingly scary enough to exploit Craven's.

To call this a comedy is a sign of optimism; to call it a comeback for Murphy is a sign of blind faith.

Neither as good as it might be nor as bad as you might expect.
January 01, 2000
Craven can't keep the comic elements in balance with the horror, and as a result there's no tension or dramatic pull.
January 01, 2000
Doesn't live up to its promise or premise.

Given the talent involved, it's almost impressive how much of a misfire the film is.
May 14, 2002
The horror relies on special effects so obvious that the scares are compromised.
June 18, 2002
Vampire in Brooklyn is neither funny nor frightening and comes up a tedious middle-road hybrid from veteran scaremeister Wes Craven, who directed.
February 06, 2003
Is it comedy? Is it horror? Uneven film that never lives up to its potential as either.
