Where to begin...
The acting? Very, very lame. The two leading ladies were obviously having a lot of fun during filming, but the overall result was, if not exactly wooden, definitely very in-your-face with the jokes, which, having been forced on the viewer in such a "laugh, dammit - this is a joke" way, had a tendency to go down like pork chops in a synagogue.
Sigourney Weaver and Malcolm McDowell were a horrible disappointment. The ever-lovely Sigourney played the vampire "stem" who had created the two young vamps, but instead of playing it seriously and letting the jokes flow, she over-acted from beginning to end.
Malcolm McDowell as the knitting-fetishist Vlad Tepes aka Vlad the Impaler, now attending something akin to Bloodsuckers Anonymous, was evidently trying to get into his role, but the lines weren't up to it.
The rest of the plot really isn't worth relating. There was love, there was a Van Helsing vampire hunter working for Homeland Security, there were some cute moments. But it really wasn't worth the bother.
1* for completely awful. I only regret that one can't give negative stars...
