Once Bitten is an American 1985 horror comedy film directed by Howard Storm.A spoof of the "vampire seducer" genre, the film is notable as a very early vehicle for the career of Jim Carrey, who plays Mark, a sex-minded teenage boy in love with his girlfriend Robin (Karen Kopins), a "good girl" who won't put out, keeping them both virgins.Along comes the mysterious and beautiful Countess (Lauren Hutton), an ancient vampire who, every year, must bite a male virgin three times by Halloween to stay young and beautiful—but it's The '80s, and where is a vampire going to find a teenage male virgin in Los Angeles?Mark, frustrated by Robin's refusal to give him any, goes to Los Angeles. The Countess spots him and decides to take his blood for her youth and add him to her coterie of immortal vampires. Robin knows that something's up—but will The Power of Love be enough to pull Mark back from the clutches of an undead seductress? | |

Virus-Victim Symptoms: In uncomfortable places. After getting bitten by the Countess in the thigh the first time, Mark begins to suffer from strange erotic dreams. Then as the days pass, his appetite changes to craving raw meat juice and raw hamburger meat (as opposed to well cooked hamburger like he used to). Then his skin becomes pale, and his attitude begins to change. Then his reflection in the mirror starts to disappear. | |

Once Done, Never Forgotten: Robin asks Jamie and Russ to check Mark's inner thigh for bite marks. They do this by Russ grabbing him from behind and Jamie getting on his knees and moving close in (he was half blind from shampoo at the time). Jamie remarks later that their lives in high school are over. He's not wrong, given the time. | |

Sliding Scale of Vampire Friendliness | |
Once Bitten / int_97bc51a8 | comment |
Sliding Scale of Vampire Friendliness: Despite needing a virgin "sacrifice", the Countess and her coven seemed to be in the middle of friendliness scale. As befits a light comedy, the death in her wake was a big ol' zero, and there were no morality shifts or ravening thirst. The Countess herself was pretty friendly for an evil seductress, and Mark's friends got on pretty well with two girls from the coterie. | |

Vampires Are Sex Gods | |
Once Bitten / int_d1c8f2b3 | comment |
Vampires Are Sex Gods: Or Sex Goddesses, in the Countess' case. Each time the Countess seduces and bite Mark, she leaves him a state of ecstasy that ends with him passing out with no memory. Overtime Mark cannot resist the Countess' allure as he falls more and more under her power and dark influence, eventually causing Robin to intervene and take drastic measures. | |

Our Ghouls Are Creepier: Played for Laughs as Mark's transformation progresses. He stays cute despite the preference for fresh blood. | |

Offscreen Inertia | |
Once Bitten / int_db454784 | comment |
Offscreen Inertia: When last seen, Jamie, and Russ seem to have been seduced by two of the Countess' female minions, and the movie never gets back to them. Given what the Countess herself wanted from Mark, those two might have gotten a little in over their heads... | |

For Halloween, I Am Going as Myself | |
Once Bitten / int_df33a778 | comment |
For Halloween, I Am Going as Myself: Played with. Mark shows up at the costume party in all black, and everyone thinks he has come as a vampire, except Robin, who is upset that he didn't bother to be Jack to her Jill. | |

Breakfast in Bed | |
Once Bitten / int_e6692d26 | comment |
Breakfast in Bed: At the beginning of the movie, Sebastian serves the Countess breakfast in bed—only, the Countess is a vampire, so she is waking up after sunset, her "bed" is a coffin, and "breakfast" is a pint of blood. | |

Nature Abhors a Virgin | |
Once Bitten / int_e6d0ea39 | comment |
Nature Abhors a Virgin: The movie begins with Robin balking at going all the way, despite her boyfriend wanting to. By the end of the film, they have sex to save him from a vampire who feeds on male virgins' blood. | |

Running Gag | |
Once Bitten / int_f9f2c33 | comment |
Running Gag: Russ getting shot down after his well-practiced come-on speech: Butt-Monkey Jamie being afraid of everything from dating to being gay. Sebastian, the openly gay butler of the Countess, hiding in her closet. For reasons never explained, the Countess likes biting buttons off shirts. | |
