Gary Feels A Bite Better

Pop idol Martin Kemp is a sucker for women - so the role of randy Vampire was one he could get his teeth into.

Martin, star of steamy film Embrace With A Vampire, is back in biting form after nearly dying of a brain tumour.
The former Spandau Ballet singer plays an evil monster bent on seducing a virgin. And to make sure he's not biting off more than he can chew, the toothy Casanova gets in a bit of practice with a string of women who fall victim to his hypnotic powers.
"Martin really enjoyed himself", said producer Ladd Vance.
"He's a faithful, loving husband and father in real-life, but he admitted he had a good time in the sex scenes !"
Martin, 32, is seen romping back to health after four life-saving operations to his tumour in February.
Vance said of the film : "It is quite raunchy, but it is tasteful".

Actress Charlotte Lewis plays a photographer who seduces female co-star Alyssa Milano. It's a far cry from 22-year-old Alyssa's role as a goody two-shoes in TV sitcom Who's The Boss.
Vance said : "We had a body double on hand, but she wasn't used. Alyssa had it in her contract that she could refuse to do some naked scenes, but she felt comfortable with it. Her mum had a long meeting with the director to talk the whole thing over".

The film is directed by Anne Goursand who worked on Bram Stoker's Dracula. It goes out in the UK later this year.
