Just ask C. Thomas Flood. Waking up after a fantastic night unlike anything he`s ever experienced, he discovers that his girlfriend, Jody, is a vampire. And surprise! Now he`s one, too. For some couples, the whole biting-and-blood thing would have been a deal breaker. But Tommy and Jody are in love, and they vow to work through their issues. But word has it that the vampire who initially nibbled on Jody wasn`t supposed to be recruiting. Even worse, Tommy`s erstwhile turkey-bowling pals are out to get him, at the urging of a blue-dyed Las Vegas call girl named (duh) Blue. And that really sucks.
