Let me tell you about a bit of a forgotten gem that just hit Paramount+ – it’s Wes Craven’s Vampire in Brooklyn from 1995. Eddie Murphy is hilarious, and frankly, a little unsettling, as Maximilian, an ancient vampire who arrives in New York City on a very specific mission: finding a half-human, half-vampire to continue his family line. What makes it even more fun is that Murphy doesn’t just play Maximilian; he also takes on the roles of a down-on-his-luck preacher and a seriously loud mobster! The cast is fantastic overall, featuring Angela Bassett, Allen Payne, Kadeem Hardison, and the always-funny John Witherspoon. It’s a wild ride, and if you’re looking for a fun, slightly campy horror-comedy, this one’s worth checking out.
