Bloodsucking Bastards

I don't know if I watched before any of the horror comedies, at least in the real sense. I remember some parodies which were trying to be hell funny but they were lame. This movie has a bit of its funny moments but overall it is very entertaining.

What is most positive about this movie for me it is that is not boring. As I said, very entertaining. The story is pretty normal, but the whole vampire thing adds to the fun. I don't know if they were trying to make parody of some other movies. But although this one has a lot of bloody scenes - especially killing of the vampire crew - it is not scary but kinda funny.

Kelly Clarkson as a gay icon?! It seemed to me that it was that her purpose in the movie... and that the security guy and the other one are actually together.

All in all, not bad. Seven from me.

Bloodsucking Bastards is a "B" blood type vampire movie. That's not a bad thing. This film has enough comedic and acting bite to actually represent a worthwhile watch.

The storyline is utterly predictable but that's no shortcoming as there are enough lightweight laugh's and vampire antics, to keep the story rolling along. Combine this with reasonable acting and you have a winner here. Provided, of course, you accept this films "B" credentials and associated budget.

If you're in the mood for some vampire fun you could do a lot worse than this title. My advice watch it alongside polished Canadian comedic vamp flick, "Suck", for a evenings chuckle worthy vampire fun. Six out of ten from me.

Bloodsucking Bastards is a fun ride, has some nice gore and some actual laugh out loud scenes. The cast was good for the most part and helped keep the tone of the movie nice and light. There were a few characters on the annoying side but not enough to fully pull the movie down. One of my main complaints would be that things do take a while to truly get going, but at least there was some decent humor to keep things entertaining.

This was a nice surprising treat, I really like horror comedies but so many of them seem to fall flat. "Bloodsucking Bastards" isn't perfect and some of the humor was a little too dry but it definitely did a good job of being fun and not really taking itself seriously at all.

6.5/10

Okay I've seen worse, but yeah not too impressive movie and takes far too long time for any bloodsucking to commence, first half of the movie is pretty much a (mostly mean-spirited) office comedy with mostly unlikeable characters.

The second half, or to be correct the last 30 minutes is rather entertaining and action-packed but we had to sit through 50 minutes of (mostly) unfunny jokes and little plot to get there, and you have to judge the movie on a whole not a good last third.

Horror in the office can be done well 'NOT SAFE FOR WORK (2014)' with Max Minghella is a good example of that, or if you need a bit of comedy in your office-horror 'INHUMAN RESOURCES' aka 'REDD INC. (2012)' is a much better alternative than this.

Pros:

I picked this movie to see Fran Kranz ("Cabin In The Woods"), expecting a low-budget slog. What a pleasant surprise when I began laughing out loud. The script is hilarious, and a lot of work must've gone into it. I worked on a network team that reminded me of this gang: bosses, office politics, and everything. "Oh yeah, I knew that guy!" or "Hey! I was that guy!" The office building setting couldn't be simpler. The actor playing Tim especially had me cracking up. I think what I liked most was the script's confidence -- you could tell these guys knew they had a funny thing going. This was also a professionally-made film, with decent direction and camera work.

Cons:

BB works much better as a comedy than a horror flick. The effects are fine, and usually funny, but it kinda loses the spark after the first hour. Still, highly recommended.

Bam Snap!
