    Amusing Vampire Comedy

    If Woody Allen had tackled the classic vampire theme, just past his prime, it might have played out something like this. The script has some sharp dialog and witty word play which is done justice by some good actors who know how to have fun with their lines while still playing it straight for the most part. The film wisely chooses to keep broad comedy at a minimum while loading on the 1930s atmosphere. Not a classic but quite enjoyable for what it is. If you liked Love At First Bite you should find this entertaining.

    Light hearted and enjoyable

    Quite enjoyable! A fun, light spirited vampire comedy.

    Sucking the life out of every vampire joke ever

    THERAPY FOR A VAMPIRE is an Austrian vampire comedy that involves two vampires, two humans & Sigmund Freud in a kind of slapstick love-quadrilateral. The jokes were a bit corny (vampire to Freud: "I no longer have a thirst for life") & I wish the film had actually focused on the THERAPY part, rather than the silliness of vampires falling in love (or lust) with humans. Why even get Freud involved if psychoanalysis isn't going to play a central plot point? The costuming & ambience were nice to look at, although the lighting was a little soap opera-esque (was that on purpose?). Meh.

    A very different vampire flick

    This was an enjoyable movie to me even though had to follow the subtitles.They women were beautiful, and the male actors at times were comics. A different take on a vampire movie.

    Voulez-vous couches avec... WOW!

    Comedy Gold in any language! I loved it. I have a passing familiarity with German, so I was mostly reliant on the subtitles for context and the actors for subtext. That sort of works out well anyway, because that's usually the way it goes with most films and in real life, too.
