One of the worst films of 1999, 23 July 1999
Author: anonymous from Los Angeles, Ca

The only thing keeping me in the theatre during this movie was the $8 I paid to see it. The plot is completely obscure. The acting is less than tolerable. Vampire/Porno/Love Triangle with AIDS...can't really think of a worse combo. The only good thing about this film was the opening five minutes.
