It follows a petty rock band called the Winners, consisting of vocalist Joey Winner (Stefaniuk), bassist Jennifer (Jessica Paré), guitarist Tyler (Paul Anthony), drummer Sam (Mike Lobel), and French-Canadian roadie Hugo (Chris Ratz), along with their sleazy manager Jeff (Dave Foley), as they tour across Canada and the USA after Jennifer is turned into a vampire by Queeny (Dimitri Coats). Meanwhile, a vampire hunter—who is afraid of the dark—named Eddie Van Helsing (McDowell) quickly chases them down.
While on tour, one by one the band is turned into vampires. The band grows in popularity but Joey is losing interest in the vampire lifestyle. Joey tells Jennifer that they can become human but they will need to kill Queeny. The band, now working with Eddie, go to Queeny's mansion to fight him. During the fight Eddie discovers his lost love, Danielle, did not die but was turned. As Queeny is about to kill Eddie, he is stabbed in the heart by Joey. The band and Danielle become human again. Six months later Joey and Jennifer are bored living in suburbia when they are approached by the vampire bartender (Alice Cooper), an ancient and powerful vampire, who convinces them to become vampires again.

Famous quotes containing the words premise and/or plot:
“We have to give ourselves—men in particular—permission to really be with and get to know our children. The premise is that taking care of kids can be a pain in the ass, and it is frustrating and agonizing, but also gratifying and enjoyable. When a little kid says, “I love you, Daddy,” or cries and you comfort her or him, life becomes a richer experience.”
—Anonymous Father. Ourselves and Our Children, by Boston Women’s Health Book Collective, ch. 3 (1978)
“Ends in themselves, my letters plot no change;
They carry nothing dutiable; they won’t
Aspire, astound, establish or estrange.”
—Philip Larkin (1922–1986)
