At some point during Embrace of the Vampire, I thought the editing looked familiar to me, and it
turns out the director, Anna Goursand, did Bram Stoker's Dracula a few years earlier.
Sensing the soft porn style, I wondered if Anna Goursand was Zalman King's protégé. It turned out she
directed Another 9½ Weeks. If he was the director instead,
Embrace of the Vampire might have worked out better.
Looking at the comments from Amazon, they've been: "Boy, does Alyssa Milano look great when she's naked!" "Alyssa Milano
is smoking." "[She is] the only highlight of this film." "Alyssa Milano! Mostly Nude!" "The 5 stars are for Alyssa's perfect
nude body only." and "Alyssa Milano is hot!"
It seems these reviewers were only impressed by the size of her areolas but paid no attention to everything else.
I wonder why she did it for such a poor script. The bitch battle between her character and Elisa is
interesting and should've been the main feature of the film.
All in all, Anne Goursand is a Zalman King wannabe.
