This is a straight to video vanity project directed by low budget director Todd Jason Cook and featuring his then wife Lisa Cook (now Lisa DeWild) and released in 1996. I have previously featured the second vehicle, in the series Lisa’s New Nightmares. Lisa starred in many of her husband’s low budget vehicles and the Lisa’s Nightmares were a series of short horror films based on her and shot in their house. This was the third film and, like previous instalments, many of the story ideas were provided by fans.
For this one, however, there was only one vampire segment. The rest was pretty darn slasher. Like others in the series the transfer you can now see is far from brilliant and the original recording was zero budget filmmaking. So you do not go into one of these expecting high cinema or anywhere near.

| fangs out |
Linked with Lisa writing in her diary (each segment an entry of a remembered dream), she introduces the segment we are interested in by saying she was a vampire. In a chair we see Todd Jason Cook looking nervous. At first we see Lisa’s shadow, his head darts around and then she is before him wearing a negligée as Type O Negative’s Love You to Death plays. She dances, bares fangs and then boobs and then bites him, pulling him off the chair. From the floor (in an unlikely physical feat) he manages to stake the standing vampire. She dies. That’s it. Like those segments in the last film in the series this is little more than a fleeting visitation.
