its genius (his accent) - he is an amazing actor that is acting like an insane man putting on a bad accent - i think renfield next as a comparison to old and new Cage as a vampire lol
@@gailscrypto1536 he’s a awesome Dracula. Plus he looks like the great Christopher Lee in the role of Dracula. Plus some pretty cool knowledge, he’s actually related to the late great Christopher lee
@misterkite There was a movie in the early 1920's called "Dracula's Death" where the movies mysterious villain is revealed to a man who's deluded himself into thinking he's Count Dracula, and it ends with him dying because in order to prove to the lead characters he's a vampire he shoots himself thinking it wouldn't kill him hence the title, but sadly it's a lost film.
Love this movie. Nic Cage at his best. My friends and I have always been under the assumption that the bat at the beginning of the movie bit him and gave him rabies. The rest of the movie is just his descent into madness as the disease takes hold.
Mescaline is the active ingredient in peyote. It's the drug Aldous Huxley took and wrote about in The Doors Of Perception, which was the book from which the band The Doors took their name.
Nicholas Cage based his accent in this film on his father, August Coppola. Coppola was a literature professor, and he felt that entitled him to speak with a bit of a posh accent. Since Cages character was a literary agent in this film, he felt he should speak with that same kind of posh. Cages roles are a cornucopia of one artistic influence to another. You never know what to expect from him. And he's a genius for it. I love him so much I'm this movie! 😂
Omg the Mrs' fury at Nick Cage's accent was so hilariously relatable haha!! 🤣Hearing it then explained as his own acting jam was just the absolute cherry on the sundae.
Not sure if I agree with this being Nicholas Cage's breakthrough movie, as he starred in Raising Arizona the year before. But maybe this was the uncaging of the Crazy Nicholas we have had since? I love it!
@@ItDoesntMatterReally I've heard Cage talk about this scene a lot, the director was actually trying to talk him out of it. Cage came up with the scene and got the director to go a long with it.
@@My-Name-Isnt-Important They talked about it in the commentary track for the DVD a bit (find it if you can, it's wonderful). The director was definitely opposed, but if I recall correctly there was at least one more take out of spite.
I was one of the lucky few who saw it in a theater. Every once in a while when i get bored at my desk I start calling for Alva. Alva. Alva! There you are! or the Too late Alva! Too late! Too late! It's too late, Alva!
Glad to see this old jem covered. Beals was not a vampire 🦇 so cage wasn't either. His job created stress and this was the result. Consider another dark Nicolas Cage movie "8mm".
Nicholas Cage character I think his name is Peter? Suffers from personality disorder and his job took a deep toll on him adding to his mental health declining so there was never a vampire and Rachel who is a actual person he had a one night stand with and for some reason hallucinates and imagine her being a vampire don't exist she was just a figment of his imagination. This is movie is underrated regarding Nicholas Cage performance.
Peter's strange accent is supposed to be a fake accent used by the character because he thinks he sounds more "elegant" and "smarter" (hence the literary agent job). The accent comes and goes throughout the movie and is more prominent when trying to impress people, and less in scenes with people like the psychiatrist.
All of the scenes on the street are with real people, not extra's. Cage went all out with this role and wanted to fully commit to being a person that is going crazy. Which he is excellent at. You can see later characters in several different scenes, and Nicolas Cage has said this is was his favorite role. The director allowed him to do whatever he wanted and fully supported whatever choice he made. He did try to talk Cage out of eating the roach, but did agree to film it. Cage hasn't really had the same freedom in later films, even with Face Off he didn't get to do everything he wanted to do.
Ok hear me out - this movie makes a lot more sense if you watch it as a double feature with American Psycho. Also keep in mind Cage was only 23/24 years old when this was filmed.
Wow, finally someone is reacting to this crazy movie. Next you need to another Nick Cage movie. Wild At Heart. Wifey just needs to occasionally take a chill pill. Some movies are meant to be out there. On one hand it’s good that you don’t fake liking everything but dang.
Nicolas Cage is an eccentric but great actor that some people online have tricked themselves into believing is a lousy actor. It's bizarre how that works.
I always thought the accent was supposed to be a kind of eastern coast Ivy league "upper crust" kind of thing the pompous character was cultivating in order to sound "sophisticated". I love this movie it always struck me as a kind of prototype of American Psycho. THanks for showing it some attention, very underrated IMHO.
I myself have never seen it but it’s funny. This was his first film and then he did a kick as job as Dracula in Renfield. Watching this is kinda like seeing him before he becomes Dracula because if you listen closely, he has a Dracula accent in vampires kiss
Brilliant satire of the 80s corporate/NYC/culture. All style, no substance. It's like "American Psycho" and "Bright Lights, Big City" had a baby "After Hours". (With vampires)
The actress who played Alva was actually terrified of Nicholas Cage so those scenes he is chasing her she was genuinely afraid and how Nicholas can switch up his acting within seconds.
City of Angel's, Kiss of Death, Windtalkers, Leaving Las Vegas, Willys Wonderland, Matchstick Men, The Family Man, and Trapped in Paradise..just to name a few that you guys may like. And yes, he was crazy in this one, he was probably hung up on the one chick that he kept thinking was a Vampire, guess you could say she put a "spell" on him, but he had a shrink, so.... yeah he was just crazy and Alva's brother ended him. Just my 2 cents.
I don't think most people do hate Cage I think most people have embraced him and how he acts lol. Cage never acts normal he always plays crazy weird or insane and I think people either role with it or don't 😅
If you both love Nick cage crazy, watch longlegs. I’m dying to see you both react to that. But as I said earlier, you guys should really watch renfield after seeing this
he went nuts after he found himself with an eriction fighting a bat and then started to think that the vampire (which is the girl he was doing it with at the time) was visiting him but instead it could be the vampire bat just bleeding him dry every night until he just went full nuts. at leas this is my theory
I can’t believe Chi just related to Francis Ford Coppola. He only changed his name to cage so he wouldn’t be associated with his relative. Otherwise I think his name is Nicholas Coppola but I might be wrong on that.
Mrs. Movies I'm with you, I f*cking hated this movie, and I hated Nic Cage in it. Don't get me wrong, I love Nic and I think all of his accolades are richly deserved ... just not for this movie. His character is so odd even before he is supposedly bitten. If he lived in my neighborhood he likely would have had a crowbar upside his cranium. I'm sure that I read in the Bible, "A fool's mouth invites a beating". Just saying... I honestly don't remember the last time I rooted against the protagonist of a film so strongly. I know a lot of people like this movie, and that's wonderful. It just wasn't my cup of tea. Personally, I suggest that you guys check out "Bangkok Dangerous". It's a killer! Literally! Thanks for all of the great reactions. 👍
I find this movie both weird and funny, but also kind of scary because of just how insane his character is. I totally agree with Mrs. Movies about his accent though. It bugs the crap outta me!
Not the first vampire in NYC. Dracula himself made the scene in LOVE AT FIRST BITE, with George Hamilton as the Count. A minor classic. Won't find it on your polls. "I Love the Nightlife". Millenial quote of the day: "I dont know what mescaline is." As for "she could just quit", this was during the Reagan years. Good jobs were not plentiful or easy to come by, especially during the rise of corporate culture. Gave rise to the common refrain "be happy you have a job. " Didnt you watch THEY LIVE or WALL STREET?
Vampire's Kiss is basically Nicolas Cage's American Psycho.

23:06 - "I feel like I've seen this face in a meme somewhere."
You don't say?
Rimshot!
And they didn't include "A!...B!...C!...D!..."
Nicholas Cage was 23 when this movie was filmed. Let that sink in. The man has looked 40-something his whole life :D
This is 💯 a story about mental health and not about vampires.
Love this movie. Nic Cage at his best. My friends and I have always been under the assumption that the bat at the beginning of the movie bit him and gave him rabies. The rest of the movie is just his descent into madness as the disease takes hold.
Ooh good call! Explains a lot
"These are weird acting choices" You haven't seen anything yet lmao
It's great that Nic finally got to play a real vampire in Renfield 🤣🤣🤣
I was going to suggest this one 😅
Omg… yes, thank you in advance. This movie reminds me of how lucky I am to have been an 80s latch key kid with a VHS player.
Mescaline is the active ingredient in peyote. It's the drug Aldous Huxley took and wrote about in The Doors Of Perception, which was the book from which the band The Doors took their name.
There are some truly hilarious moments in this film

His accent is Keanu Reeves from Dracula🤣
Omg the Mrs' fury at Nick Cage's accent was so hilariously relatable haha!! 🤣Hearing it then explained as his own acting jam was just the absolute cherry on the sundae.
This movie is bloody hilarious.. I just always feel joy watching it 😂 Nic Cage is so unhinged it's priceless in this movie..
Not sure if I agree with this being Nicholas Cage's breakthrough movie, as he starred in Raising Arizona the year before. But maybe this was the uncaging of the Crazy Nicholas we have had since? I love it!
And Valley Girl before both of those!
Lol. Markus is such a troll for making you watch Vampire's Kiss. Love it.
I'm a vampire I'm a vampire I'm a vampire 😂
45 mins in and Mr. Movies says “He’s really losing it.” Nothing beforehand seemed odd?
Supposedly Cage actually ate a real cockroach in that scene 😮😂
He had to eat at least two because the director got pissed at his method acting attitude and made him do multiple takes.
I'd heard it was a bet.

This is movie is underrated regarding Nicholas Cage performance.
i think you nailed it 5 minutes in when you said bats have rabies lol
This film is an instant classic! 😅 Nicolas Cage at his best, His acting is absolutely incredible. 😂

"Do you think it's funny or weird?"
YES!
"I never misfiled anything, not one time". Truly outstanding acting, makes James Dean look like Bugs Bunny.
"AbcdefghijklmnNOPQRS TEE YOU VEE W EX WHY ZEE!!!"
I absolutely LOVE this movie. Nic Cage is so ridiculously unhinged & I don't think he was acting much. 🤣
His accent sounds like the accent Keanu Reeves put on in Dracula.
All of the scenes on the street are with real people, not extra's. Cage went all out with this role and wanted to fully commit to being a person that is going crazy. Which he is excellent at.

Nicolas Cage is the greatest actor of our time! You guys should definitely react to more of his movies!
This one is bonkers!
Thanks!
Being from the 80s, I always thought he sounded like a yuppie nerd. We used to call them preppies.😊
Red Rock West is a good early Cage performance where he acts "Normal", it's sort of a neo noir with a solid cast. Worth a watch.
I love that his accent wavers between the surfer vamp of Keanu Reeves in Dracula...and Kids in the Hall's man-servant Hecubus....
I think of this as Nicholas Cage: The Movie
I admire that Nicholas Cage just goes for it.
"Nouveau shamanic" sounds awwwwfully pretentious 😂
He was very good in Wild At Heart.
Mrs. Movies has the confused reaction face the whole time and it’s priceless 😂
This is frickin hilarious ! So glad you picked it 😅😅😅
Ok hear me out - this movie makes a lot more sense if you watch it as a double feature with American Psycho.
Also keep in mind Cage was only 23/24 years old when this was filmed.

8mm , snake eyes , famaly man , mandy some of his must watches
Didn't they try calling this Jaws 6?
I want a movie about those dancing mimes.
Nicolas Cage at his finest 😂
This movie is hilarious, I love how weird it is
This is literally when Nick Cage became bat shit crazy.

Vampires don’t have a reflection in the mirror. Don’t like garlic either.
I think his accent is from Boston, Georgia😂
You should check out Valley Girl...his first film (still Nickolas Copolla)
I knew the Mrs favorite part would be the end.😂😂😂
Brilliant satire of the 80s corporate/NYC/culture. All style, no substance. It's like "American Psycho" and "Bright Lights, Big City" had a baby "After Hours". (With vampires)
Cage's petformance reminds me of Patrick Bateman in American Psycho.
Now that the vid premiered - special request- please add a sound bite for future puppy cameos. ❤❤❤
The actress who played Alva was actually terrified of Nicholas Cage so those scenes he is chasing her she was genuinely afraid and how Nicholas can switch up his acting within seconds.
Great dark comedy! One of Nick’s weirdest, which is saying something, haha! I showed this to my best buddy in high school and he loved it, too.
City of Angel's, Kiss of Death, Windtalkers, Leaving Las Vegas, Willys Wonderland, Matchstick Men, The Family Man, and Trapped in Paradise..just to name a few that you guys may like.
And yes, he was crazy in this one, he was probably hung up on the one chick that he kept thinking was a Vampire, guess you could say she put a "spell" on him, but he had a shrink, so.... yeah he was just crazy and Alva's brother ended him. Just my 2 cents.
I think I’m gonna wanna this this film properly now
Yes. You will recognize the memes.
Hey guys. The accent he is using is a pseudo Transylvanian accent
16:58 is that Franz Kafka in the portrait??
He's a VAMPAYAH!!! 🤣
I don't think most people do hate Cage I think most people have embraced him and how he acts lol. Cage never acts normal he always plays crazy weird or insane and I think people either role with it or don't 😅
Christian Bale took inspiration from Nicholas Cage character for the movie American Psycho in how they suffers from disorders.
As long as you're doing vampire movies, check out "The Lost Boys".
Hi, you should really watch Zombieland for some degree of sanity after this movie.
This has to be the inspiration for American Psycho.
Thst be hilarious if they put his character in the interview with the vampire series lol
oh god please no LOL that show is perfect in every way
If you both love Nick cage crazy, watch longlegs. I’m dying to see you both react to that. But as I said earlier, you guys should really watch renfield after seeing this
22:50
thats the MEME!! ha
I watched The Unbearable Weight of Massive Talent recently which is really good. I only watched because of Pedro Pascal but Nic Cage was very good.
he went nuts after he found himself with an eriction fighting a bat and then started to think that the vampire (which is the girl he was doing it with at the time) was visiting him but instead it could be the vampire bat just bleeding him dry every night until he just went full nuts.
at leas this is my theory

Really funny movie. That poor pigeon tho! D:
Oh if you two haven’t seen renfield yet, WATCH IT!!! It’s amazing
Never heard of the movie but the meme at 22:51 finally clicks 😂
I always wanted to see this movie. I didn’t hear back to the 2000s and it’s never been someplace. I can easily access it.
Fangs for the upload 😉😉😉 ... I'll see myself out.
I loved this reaction so much, I'm watching it again tonight!...and again...and again...
Matchstick Men is a great Nic Cage movie
This movie is about mental health a good underrated one to

Where did you get that giant mug!
I find this movie both weird and funny, but also kind of scary because of just how insane his character is. I totally agree with Mrs. Movies about his accent though. It bugs the crap outta me!
Up next: Werner Herzog's "remake" of Bad Lieutenant!
Now all I hear is cucu everytime I watch a Nicolas film
vampire kiss didnt start his career...valley girl did
You need to watch Renfield!!!!! Best Dracula ever and its Nic Cage.
its the meme!!!! the one where it says "you dont say"
8:44 I have to agree with Mrs Movies. He DOES sound like Dr Evil 😆 His accent, whatever he's trying to do here, bugs me too.

hey guys! do hider in the house. its more suspense than horror
First the meme now the movie 👌noice !
Why are you asking someone who doesn't remember anything about movies, about things that happened in movies?
