Vampire's Kiss

Peter Loew (Nicolas Cage) is a driven literary agent and an example of the stereotypical narcissistic and greedy yuppie of the 1980s: he works all day and club hops at night, with little in his life but alcohol, one night stands and the pursuit of money and prestige. However, he is slowly going insanity and sees a therapist (Ashley) frequently; it is during these sessions that his declining mental health becomes clear through a series of increasingly bizarre rants which eventually begin to scare even the psychiatrist. After he takes home a girl he met in a club named Jackie (Kasi Lemmons), a bat flies in through his window, scaring them both. At his next session he mentions to his therapist that the struggle with the bat aroused him, and after visiting an art museum with Jackie the next day, he ditches her, and she leaves an angry message on his phone.

Em Nova York Peter Loew (Nicolas Cage), um agente literário, entra em um clima de loucura total quando acredita que foi mordido por um vampira, Rachel (Jennifer Beals), uma mulher que ele levou para a cama, e que ele lentamente está se tornando um vampiro, apesar da opinião contrária da Dra. Glaser (Elizabeth Ashley), sua psiquiatra. Ele então começa a aterrorizar Alva Restrepo (Maria Conchita Alonso), sua secretária e primeira vítima em potencial.
