Vamp (1986)

My rating - 6.5/10

Two college students trying to complete a fraternity pledge go to a seedy club to aquire a couple of strippers for their college friends, once there they soon discover the place is run by vampires.

This is an underrated little gem that rarely gets talked about when people discuss vampire movies. The cast, including Dedee Pfeiffer (sister of Michelle) and Chris Makepeace look to be having a fun time with it. Grace Jones is striking as the head vampire, and even though she doesn't speak a single word in the entire movie she steals every scene she's in.

The practical effects are very good with some genuinely narley looking vampire makeup on Jones. The comedy sits well with the horror elements, not an easy task to pull off and the whole thing has a wonderful 80s feel to it. Definitely worth tracking down if you're into vampire movies or 80s cheese.
