When Rita wakes up from her sleep and saids “Mama what’s happening to me?” And she looks at the newspaper clipping of a woman, that’s her mother. Not the woman in the coffin on the ship. The women in the coffin is Rita but the vampire version of Rita. Like a vision from herself of what she is to become.

[@shevettejackson.]

Right 👍🏿

[@hollyhartwick3832]

Absolutely right. I'm not sure where our host got the idea that was her mother. That was obviously Rita herself without makeup. She was having visions/hallucinations of her own vampirism. It was a bit like Luke seeing his own face in Vader's helmet on Dagobah. There were similar scenes as well in Dracula 2000 with Mary.

[@crimsonffire]

Me and my dad loved this film. Apparently Eddie Murphy wanted it to be more serious and scary but wes wanted the dark humour. It's still a great film. We had to wait for blade for that kind of black serious vampire film

@LaFlor718 Murphy wanted it to be more horror. But because he was so well known for comedy they made it more comedy than he wanted. But I still love the film. Even if it's not what he wanted.

@@corvetteman0714this movie is the only one I can think of that brings Caribbean based stories and folklore to a wider audience, including the vampire mythos. This film still respects and give homage to the vampire stories and folk tales from central and Eastern Europe while adding a new layer by including the Caribbean and making it the central story. Also there is more urgency. Max’s existence relies on finding the dhampir woman (Rita). So those points make it a stand out within the sub genre.

[@MikefromTexas1]

Always loved this movie, it's so fun. One of my favorite Eddie Murphy movies. It's not Rita's mother, it's RITA. She's seeing the psychological manifestation of her vampire half. That's why Bassett plays both parts. Turning into animals and people is the same power. Shapeshifting.

What alot of people miss about this movie is that its kind of a low key remake of the 70s black exploration movie 'Blackula'. It pretty much has the same plot and follows the same story beats with the exception that it takes place in 1970s Harlem and the Vampire walks around wearing a old school Beliou Legosi Dracula cape (There's even a funny scene where a pimp compliments his outfit and asks where he can buy a cap like that. The vampire is annoyed but lets him live)

Everyday many none U.S. and Europeans die of skin cancer from Sun's UV rays which mirrors vampire's theory being burned by Sun's radiance. 2. Natural fruits, vegetables and herbs defeats European's internal organs that mirrors theory weapon of garlic defeating vampires, which is reason Bill Gates and team of European scientists were hired to create synthetic fruits, vegetation and chemicals to dim the Sun's powerful UV rays. 3. Theory of Holy waters defeating vampires are symbolic of natural earth's waters Europeans cannot drink without mitigation of chemical substances to survive. Science and genetics are very important understanding how the vampire's theories are parallel with European's genetical structures.

Alternative theory.

[@shainewhite2781]

Love this movie! It's a shame that the movie wasn't well received by critics but it has gained a cult following. Eddie Murphy has regrets being in the movie, and hated wearing the wig in the final cut of the film.

[@ericwhite1942]

The whole thing with the monstrous from reminds me of the vampires in the original fright night. I felt that, as it's presented, that their human looking form we see them in most of the time is a disguise and the demonic form they turn into when they're in combat is their true form. Obviously, they can walk around looking like that all the time so they use their supernatural abilities to take a more human looking form, albeit a stunningly good looking one

[@hyperguyver2]

And a good bit of that regret was in regards to the death of stuntwoman Sonja Davis during production.

I imagine the first episode, of the Second Season, shows what (Julius Jones) does, after his transformation into a vampire, a few hours after his former boss, (Maximillian: The Vampire) had been killed. To add what type of vampire abilities, and dark magic powers, he develops while starting up his own business. Plus to add what type of individuals, Julius Jones might kill for a full meal, and who he might choose to turn someday.

That makeup did look very similar to Friday 13th. It was good for the 90’s though. These actors have come a long way. Makeup Artists too! ❤

I think the ring kind of was the reservoir of lifeforce or maybe magic of Max, and when Julious put it on, being half way of being a vampire, it acted as a power source to complete it's change from ghoul to vampire... Now, with Rita, I think the conditions are different because her vampirism is latent but active and maybe if it isn't woke up it make her mortal for the rest of her life, this will explain why Max was so desperate to find her, because it was a countdown to complete turned her complete vampire.

[@sirwilliam4128]

I'm pretty sure that the reason that Max wanted to turn Rita was a bloodline thing. Think about it. If vampires are nobles, and Rita is the daughter of a vampire noble; then, it makes sense that Max wants to turn her into into a full vampire because then she is of his tribe, of his bloodline. If he goes a makes a bunch of brides then they are his offspring not a legitimate potential mate. So, it's like vampiric grooming. He wants a partner not a daughter.

Nice cover, but a few things you got wrong. That wasn't Rita mother in the coffee. That was her vampire entity. That wasn't a random cab driver that was trying to hit Rita. It was a set up between Max and Julius. Julius was the driver. The reason why he had to turn her before the next full moon. Is because she was at the right age and that was her deadline and the transformation had to be completed before then. He needed Rita to restart the vampire race. She was his promised mate through her father.

[@Roland_Deschain677]

I don't believe Max actually dies in the movie. If you notice the scene where he retrieves his coffin, there is a blue flash and a spark/light that flies away. That is the same thing that happens at the end though this time you could tell it was a bat for a second. There is still the blue flash and the spark/light right after you see the bat. Its also the only thing that explains how his ring just magically fell onto the sunroof of the limo. He was repaying his debt for the help given.

I've gotta say I appreciate this channel going into Vampire Movies I've not heard of or just haven't seen.

This was a great movie that's highly slept on. Great analysis, too!

I loved thi movie. Whrn I first that Eddie was doing a Vampire Movie, I thought was going to do a re-creation of "Blackula.

[@ms.midwest6712]

Just watched this movie about 4 days ago! Still one of my favorites and HILARIOUS! 😂❤

[@ScreaminSavior]

This movie is so underrated. It's a pitch perfect horror comedy and one of my favorite vampire films. Eddie & Wes did a great job. John Witherspoon steals every scene he's in haha.
