![]() ![]() First, I wanted to see Alyssa Milano in…um…that suit she wears so finely in this movie. My reasons for volunteering to review this catalog Blu-ray release was selfishly two-folded. I believe it did see a release in the Netherlands, but that’s all I know of. ![]() To be quite honest with you, I’m not sure Embrace of the Vampire ever saw the light of day (no pun intended) theatrically in the United States other than its May 30th video premiere (according to sources referenced on IMDb). But enough about the history of it, let’s spend the next few minutes talking about the beautiful Miss Alyssa Milano and 1995’s Embrace of the Vampire. I guess if you really wanted to drill down and classify this baby, it could also be considered that of the erotic horror genre too. And I’ll be the first to admit, that when the DVD platform launched back in the 90’s and Amazon was the buzz of the world, this title was among the first DVD’s I purchased and proudly owned in my collection (it contained both the rated and unrated versions). There was also a more graphic version of the film, which is only 1 minute longer than the previously mentioned rated-R cut, and it’s billed as unrated. You see, this film was very taboo back in the day, and while it may be tame compared to today’s standards back in 1995 the MPAA wore even tighter panties as they swore up and down and reluctantly agreed to a rated R-rating for strong sexuality, violence and language. This movie is the embodiment of Alyssa Milano in every which way. No, it’s not written or directed or even produced by the former Who’s The Boss? star, but that’s not the point. When vampire horror aficionados talk about cult classics in the genre that were released in the early days of the DVD platform, one title that’s often on the tip of thier salacious tongues is Alyssa Milano’s Embrace of the Vampire. ![]()
