What can be said that has not been said already -certainly one of the most interesting titles for a film but some of the comments on this site make it look as if this is an undiscovered gem of a movie when in fact it is not. There will be a great deal of puzzlement in trying to get guests to even view the film after reading the title. For cult viewing I would recommend almost any other low budget SF / Horror movie. However if is is available in a bargain bin somewhere then give it a go but don't hold your breath for the BLUE RAY of HD-DVD version. There is a sense of pride in finding a strange little movie and being a champion of that movie but this movie does not deserve such high praise. Terrible acclamation sucks the rug out from under this film before it gets started. Finally a lot of urban myths and hospital rumours surround people who fall in love with domestic appliance (or at least try to). Best avoided.

Back in the early 90's, me and the lads went to the local video store and found we had seen everything decent, so we went for something completely off the wall and chose "Oversexed rug suckers from mars".

Wow! what an experience. We all sat there in silence until the end of the film, just glued to the screen by the movie magic before us. Never before has any director squeezed such an amazing performance from household appliances. The film drifted slightly in the middle but on the whole it was fantastic! I don't want to say too much as this will impair your first time experience, just watch it for yourselves (if you can find it!).

Three miniature anatomically correct clay-mated aliens travel to Earth to see how humans have evolved. They decide to make a human/ vacuum cleaner hybrid just for giggles, but their plan is contingent on someone having their way with a vacuum cleaner. A local bum more than happily obliges. However the resulting hybrid has a taste for.....blood and sex!! Leaving the bum to go look for his lost loving vacuum, Dusty

Thisultra-low budget curiosity is definitely a weird one, you'll never see a rapist vacuum cleaner in any other movie and the ridiculous image stays with you for a little while. The whole film feels like it was written on a bunch of cocktail napkins. Plot-lines and story elements disappear & reappear haphazardly and the movie goes off on a few tangents. Furthermore, the film feels too long for it's thin premise. Michael Paul Girard was able to make a minor soft-core skin classic with his later "Babes 2: Lost in Beaver Creek", but this, his first film, only showed that he had a lot of unpolished edges that he needed to smooth out before getting to that point.

Eye Candy: Jean Stewart gets frontally nude

My Grade: D-

DVD Extras: Director's commentary; 19 & a half minutes of outtakes from the original cut of the film; 4 minutes of outtakes from "Lebanon Vice" (the fictitious show that plays in this movie); and trailers for "National Lampoon's TV the Movie", "Fubar", "Plaster Caster", & "Dolemite"

"Oversexed Rugsuckers from Mars" is so horrendously bad that it truly has to be seen to be believed.I couldn't believe my eyes how amateurish this little piece of Z-grade dementia is.We have vacuum cleaner anal intercourse,vacuum cleaner rape,romantic relationship with vacuum cleaner,three clay animated naked aliens from Mars and two moronic Humprey Bogart impersonators.Michael Paul Girard played in very cheesy rock band called Ray Zone Day and their ghastly music is heard throughout this movie.The acting is incredibly wooden and the scenes with Dusty the Vacuum Cleaner are truly hysterical."Oversexed Rugsuckers from Mars" needs to be seen during heavy drinking session.It certainly blew my mind.I will never see vacuum cleaner in the same light again.5 horny vacuum cleaners out of 10.

Oversexed Rugsuckers from Mars is absolutely insane. Not the kind of insane that leaves one asking 'Where have you been all my life?', but rather the kind of insane that has one questioning 'How the hell did this film get made in the first place?' and 'Who would want to invest the time and effort to make something so totally bizarre?'.

It's punk rock sensibilities are evident throughout, with a 'couldn't give a s**t' attitude regarding its narrative, wild editing, alternative music, and oddball performances from people with far more enthusiasm than talent. Sometimes this sort of chaotic approach reaps dividends, but on this occasion is simply results in a film that is just too weird, and horribly cheap, for its own good.

The film starts with small, badly animated, naked, plasticene aliens arriving on Earth, only to be disappointed by mankind's lack of progress. They decide to alter the course of evolution by crossing a man with a vacuum cleaner, the human subject of the experiment being drunken bum Vernon (Richard Monda), who unknowingly chugs some alien urine, after which he has sex with an upright vacuum, who he calls Dusty.

When Dusty is stolen by a street vendor and sold to Tom as a gift for his wife, the vacuum turns on its new owner, raping and killing her. After Tom is arrested for murder, his neighbour, aspiring rock singer Rena (Jean Stewart), tries to help prove his innocence. Meanwhile, Vernon walks the streets, looking for Dusty.

Utterly bonkers (the scene where Rena gives birth to a cabbage patch doll/dustbuster baby is definitely one-of-a-kind), but too crap to ever develop a cult following, Oversexed Rugsuckers from Mars is the type of film that results in a big sigh of relief once it is over.

A cult sci-fi comedy from the late 80's that looks like it was shot on 8MM. If you like normal films you won't like this one.

A group of aliens (miniature naked Claymation ones) land next to a bum and an old vacuum and decide to create a new breed of humans. Thanks to the aliens the homeless man finds the vacuum irresistible and you can imagine the rest.

The vacuum likes to eat by using its plug to pull plates of food into its mouth. Things get nasty when it starts taking lives and raping women (we find out the vacuum is male). Things get even weirder when the woman becomes pregnant from the vacuum which was the ultimate goal of the aliens. They figure the new generation will clean up after themselves.

The acting is atrocious especially the detective who is doing a Bogart impersonation all the way through. Really the whole film is atrocious but in a funny, ridiculous way. You will laugh. The title alone has to get you to watch it.

If you like B movies, this one is a "must see." It is pitiful. It is deranged. It is truly hilarious. It is entertaining all the way through. I've kept my vacuum cleaner in a locked closet ever since. The only bad news is that it is a difficult movie to find.

This movie is a really funny, original shot-on-video film. If you can make it to then end of the movie, watch for the woman giving birth to a dustbuster with the head of a cabbage patch kid doll. Very silly film, definately not to be taken seriously. Funny kitschy soundtrack and effects. Think California Raisins meets The Bloody Video Horror That Made Me Puke On My Aunt Gertrude....

Give writer / director Michael Paul Girard some credit for stretching his wacky idea just as far as he possibly can: it turns out the human race was just the result of an experiment conducted by goofy little clay aliens with big butts and breasts. Disgusted by what they see as humanity's lack of progress, they come up with a better idea: creatures that can clean up after themselves. So they have a person, Vernon (Dick Monda) mate with a vacuum cleaner (that's right). This vacuum cleaner makes its way into the possession of a poor schmuck named Tom (Billybob Rhoads), and in his house it feasts on a special tea intended as an aphrodisiac. Now it's a hungry 'n' horny rapist and killer that is soon on the loose! This is a very agreeably dumb, dumb, dumb Troma-esque comedy, a spoof of B grade science fiction, with tons of sexual elements, and it manages to come up with some gut busting lines and moments. Granted, one has to have a tolerance for cheerful stupidity, but those interested can have a fairly good time with this. It goes a little flat after a while, unfortunately, but redeems itself in its final dozen minutes or so. It's got a little bit of female nudity and a sexy co-star in the form of Jean Stewart as Rena, a lady with lovely legs and rock star ambitions. The cast ain't exactly Oscar contenders, but they deserve some respect for keeping straight faces all the way through this pile of silly trash. Monda is simply priceless as he proclaims love for "Dusty", the great love & home appliance of his life. The sense of humour is apparent at all times; there's even a TV channel in the film with the call letters of SHT. These filmmakers definitely knew what kind of thing they were making. This viewer's favourite bits include the lovably crude special effects of the vacuum cleaner on the loose, raping, eating, even defecating. There's even a vacuum cleaner lineup in a police station, and when Rena is looking at them, she remarks that it's like being on a game show. The non stop soundtrack features a bunch of entertainingly bad songs, including ones by Girard and Stewart's own group Ray Zone Day. Some people may find this garbage too ridiculous for its own good, but others, if they are anything like this viewer, will appreciate and embrace its awfulness. Seven out of 10.

I challenged a friend to find me the most bizarre film he could in a day. He came up with this little gem, After viewing the cover of the video i was a little unsure that i would be able to watch the whole film. The first 5 minutes do it no favours, but after that it becomes a most entertaining film, and i was glued to it the whole way through. If you get a chance to see this film do so. Not recommended for a night in with the wench, but a must see classic peace of cinema. I felt sorry for that naughty little dust sucker, just doing what comes naturally. Just goes to show you do not have to throw a millions of pounds at a film to make it entertaining. (A few more quid would not go a miss!)

This was probably one of the best films I have ever seen. From the hilariously cheesy beginning to the poignant, heart-rending end, this is a film that will truly stay with you. Dusty, a relative unknown, delivered a stellar performance as the lead character. As the film opened I was dubious, but as soon as Dusty and Vernon came on the scene I was riveted. There's much more to this film than simply camp. The moving and tragic tale of Dusty's journey interweaves seamlessly with a full cast of well-rounded characters. This isn't simply a movie about a vacuum cleaner. It is a movie about people. It is a movie about the strength of true love, and having the courage to follow your heart. Complete with murder, mayhem, sex, love, tragedy, and a spectacular twist to the main romance, Oversexed Rugsuckers delivers a truly beautiful motion picture experience.

Vacuum cleaners rape women, and one falls in love with a man. They spend time together, criminals are involved and the film ends with a chase with everyone on shopping trolleys using groceries as weapons. One good scene to look out for is the sequence where the man and his vacuum lover are reunited and run into each others arms over a bridge to the tune of romeo and juliet!

I periodically have "bad movie night" with some gal pals where we all get together at one persons house. We find the most outrageous older movies we can find and pig out for an evening. I went to a fabulous local movie store that has everything you could possibly want and headed to the cult section to browse. If anyone lived in southern CT I recommend Best Video to find any type of movie. This movie was a stellar choice for the evening. From the claymation beginning we were hooked. Some of the sex scenes (vaccume being molested)totally skeeved us out but added to the entertainment factor. It was one of the "bad movies" that got played all the way through since some are so horrible we have to stop them in mid play. If you are looking for something truly original and weird this is your flick. It was a very entertaining for an evening.

This was the best b-movie I had seen in a long time.

The filming, special effects, acting, and story line were so horid that it made watching the movie down right painful!

If you are into watching the worst of the worst this is the best! Its a great laugh the whole way through. B-movie lovers you have found your mecca!

If you only see one movie about rug-sucking Martians this year, see this one. This movie opened my eyes. I have since replaced all the carpet in my house with hardwood and tile.

They won't get me!

Well, Kira Philips and Miles O'Brien, in speaking about Mars, spoke about this movie on August 27, 2003 as one of 108 movies with the name "Mars" in the title. I don't think that the movie would have been mentioned at all if it was not at least funny. Has anyone seen this film on TV and/or at art film showcases such as the Museum of Modern Art in NYC?
