In my opinion, the best vampire movie ever made.  The characters are very personable, the plot (if not original) wildly entertaining, and the music (for 80's fans anyway) nostalgic.  The special effects are top-notch, but the movie doesn't rely on them to provide thrills and chills.  I'd be lying if I said I didn't I wish I could jump into this movie and be one of the characters.  It's that good.  Really.
