Neal Page (Steve Martin) is squeezed into coach after being bumped from first class. He is seated beside Del Griffith (John Candy) who proceeds to take off his shoe and then his sock, waving it around to all and sundry and killing every small animal in the vicinity.

Love takes many forms. You can love your new cell phone technology, you can love your girl friend, you can love your life. But when all three are entwined, events can interfere and smack up across the face. Sam Treadwell (David Andrews) and Cherry (Pamela Gidley) are having an intimate moment, rolling about in the suds from an overflowing washer when, pop…, an electrical spark flares. Cherry’s eyes roll up into her head. She’s short-circuited. Poor Sam, he’ll have to find some replacement parts if he wants his relationship with Cherry to continue.

Six foot tall women are rare. There should be more of them. But they do fascinate all men in one way or another. Karla Fry (Brigitte Nielsen) is leaning over a shooting shelf at the Beverly Hills Gun Club emptying a clip or two when Axel Foley (Eddie Murphy) wonders aloud about the length of time it would take to shave her legs. She’s not impressed and asks if this is him being charming. But Axel, ever the coolest guy in town, replies that he is just offering his grooming services.

There is an allure to the mythology of vampires. It comes across in the way they move, the way they seduce, the way they dress. Sure, they have weaknesses like the daylight thing, the lack of variety in their diet, the brooding which, I guess, is meant to be attractive. But this is small potatoes to the long life, the long term wealth investments and the loyalties of bestseller fiction writers. So along comes Jesse (Lance Henriksen), Mae (Jenny Wright), Diamondback (Jenette Goldstein) and the others in this motley vampire band of trailer trash and blow all of the fangy coolness built up over the years. It’s not surprising that they get their comeuppance in such a desultory fashion. I’d imagine the vamp PR firm had no trouble allowing the script writer to arrange for their sunny demise.
