Title: ID Film: A space man fights vampires

So I've been trying to remember the name of one of those slapdash movies from the early 80s. All I remember was there were some Triad types smuggling drugs by hiding them on hopping vampires (!) -- very inconspicuous. From time to time, a cop pus on a silver foil jumpsuit and Buck Rogers helmet, calls himself Future Warrior (or maybe Future Man), and fights the vampires. There might also be ninjas in it.

Just off the top of my head, and it sounds loony enough, could it be TWINKLE TWINKLE LITTLE STAR (1983)?

You're probably thinking of the truly dreadful ROBO VAMPIRE. John Charles wrote up something on it
here.

As terrifying as this sounds, it's not either of those.

DEVIL'S DYNAMITE (1987) perhaps?

There must have been an entire sub-genre of drug smuggling on hopping vampire movies. KUNG FU VAMPIRE BUSTER is another, if I remember right.

Yep, it goes at least back the early 70s.
