Raising the Stakes

Holy sweet suffering crap! This movie rocked my world and had me laughing my balls off for hours. I think I knew some guys like these back in high school. There's nothing like a couple nerd vampires that just can't catch a break, tooling around town getting their asses kicked to get a smile on your face. I got this screener at the office and didn't do a lick of work done all day once I stuck it in my computer. I think the UPS guy got a bit of a shock when he came by for a pick-up and heard the screaming and gunfire coming from my desk. Super nice to see the cameo from the always awkward Lloyd Kaufman too! The phenomenal dialog and killer ska soundtrack made my day. Absolutely wicked. -Mike Union Label Group

This flick was made by high school kids, shot on video and had a budget of about $13. And yet...it's still really entertaining! Read on!

1. The two main characters, bumbling pals who slurp down vampire potion and proceed to completely fail at being creatures of the night, have great comedy chemistry. Zane Crosby could read stereo instructions and make them funny.

2. Director Channel knows how to tell a story and not bore ya. This was a lean production, fast-paced and never dragged.

3. Great dialogue! The one hackneyed line in the movie ("I was BORN ready!") is immediately ridiculed by another character. In your FACE, bad dialogue!

The minuses? About half the movie involves people walking down sidewalks in the middle of the night. And the F-bomb gets dropped approximately 4,191 times. But hey, maybe you're into dark sidewalks and F-bombs, in which case you'd give this movie a 10 out of 10!

As for me? I thought it was great. Check it out. 7 out of 10.

Ryan Stocking is a Jesus and looks good. He is a good man and he do be chopping down tree's.

I love ryan he is the best. He wanted to cut the homophobic crap when nobody else would

I wasn't quite sure what to think of this film when I first heard that it was coming, by I am sure glad that I did go to the premiere. All 75 minutes of this comedy were full of laughs. It was greatly enjoyable, although the amount of profanity was disconcerting. The lead characters -Zane Crosby and Josh Lively- had chemistry and charisma that showed well on film and kept us laughing throughout the film. Director/Screenwriter Justin Channel's writing gave the dialog a lot of spunk and kept the audience quite attentive throughout the premiere. I give this film two thumbs up, and would recommend it to comedy lovers everywhere.
