Given the talent involved, it's almost impressive how much of a misfire the film is.

Is it comedy? Is it horror? Uneven film that never lives up to its potential as either.
January 01, 2000
To call this a comedy is a sign of optimism; to call it a comeback for Murphy is a sign of blind faith.

The horror relies on special effects so obvious that the scares are compromised.

Never funny enough to pass muster as a comedy and never scary enough (if at all) to make it as a horror movie.
June 05, 2002
Essentially little more than a romantic triangle with a 'good versus evil' twist, it's not a bad film, but it is also neither winningly funny enough to exploit Murphy's talents nor bitingly scary enough to exploit Craven's.

Neither as good as it might be nor as bad as you might expect.

Oh, Wes, what did we all do to deserve this?
January 01, 2000
Craven can't keep the comic elements in balance with the horror, and as a result there's no tension or dramatic pull.

Murphy's pale efforts are enough to make one fondly recall Blacula. Now that was one sucker who knew how to make a film that didn't.
June 18, 2002
Vampire in Brooklyn is neither funny nor frightening and comes up a tedious middle-road hybrid from veteran scaremeister Wes Craven, who directed.
January 01, 2000
Doesn't live up to its promise or premise.
