Count Dracula is expelled from his castle by the Communist government of Romania, which plans to convert the structure into a training facility for gymnasts.
Before Dracula: Dead and Loving it, there was Love at first Bite and it is one of the funniest movies you'll ever see. My boyfriend makes fun of me all time on my love for vampire movies, but when I showed him this movie, he nearly died laughing and loves it now. Love at first Bite is something very special to me and I promise that you'll love it too. He had such great comedic timing and really created this movie. George Hamilton does a terrific job playing a tan Dracula and you can tell he had so much fun getting into the role. Sure, he's big time in Transylvania, but when it comes to America, he sure does loose his fang. The first time we wonder what would life be like for Dracula if he came into the present world and to take on one of the toughest cities: New York City. Sad to think of vampire movies that get over looked, one of the big ones' that is in my opinion one of the funniest movies you'll ever see is called Love at first Bite.

Since all four of the major characters in here provide tons of entertainment in this hour-and-a-half, this movie always is fun to watch, no matter what era. James, as model "Cindy Sonheim," gives us Exhibit A of that, with Benjamin close behind. Speaking of "liberal," this film is like something discovered out of a time capsule, if you want to see the most Liberal period in American history - the '60s and '70s - with the too-casual attitude toward sex, drugs and anything of moral value. He excels with his deadpan humor and restrained style as the famous "Count Dracula." Johnson, as "Renfield," still makes me laugh with his stupid laugh in here and Benjamin added a lot of spark to the film the moment he entered, playing the ultra-liberal psychiatrist who knows who Dracula right off and tries in vain to stop him. This has to be Hamilton's best role by far. James is okay in the female lead role here but almost all the laughs are produced by three guys: George Hamilton IV, Arte Johnson and Richard Benjamin. Brooks must have been inspired watching this film. Despite the '70s sleaze and feel to it, this is still a classic comedy with many laugh-out-loud scenes, similar to the Dracula spoof Mel Brooks put out in the '90s (Dracula: Dead And Loving It).
