About this episode
Get ready for a bite of the '80s as we sink our teeth into "Once Bitten" (1985). Directed by Howard Storm, this vampire comedy promises more laughs, campy moments, and questionable fashion choices than a decade full of neon and leg warmers. Join us as we follow the tale of Mark Kendall, played by a young Jim Carrey, who's targeted by a centuries-old vampire in need of some fresh blood. With characters so eccentric, you'd think they were auditioning for an '80s music video, "Once Bitten" is a cinematic time capsule of everything wonderfully wacky about the '80s. But here's the burning question: Does "Once Bitten" sink its fangs into comedy gold, or is it just another laughable relic from a bygone era? Join us as we unearth the undead hilarity, delivering our verdict on whether "Once Bitten" is a charmingly cheesy hit or a "seriously, what were they thinking?" miss.
