I love this movie so much

This is a coming of age storyline that you've seen in one form or another for decades. It takes a truly unique voice to make yet another one worth watching.

The movie turns out to be a little better than the average. Starting from a romantic formula often seen in the cinema, it ends in the most predictable (and somewhat bland) way.

An old-fashioned movie made with new-fashioned finesse.

...mostly on the strength of its ensemble cast, "Bloodsucking Bastards" plays out like Joss Whedon-lite, which comes as no surprise given its creators' various pedigrees and associations. The feel is that of a made-for-TV movie, in that there's not a single moment of it that calls for big-screen presentation; it's all talking heads and minimal "action," which I suppose is fine for passing the time, but not much else. Ultimately, I was reminded of a low-fi version of "Fright Night," even down to the femme lead named Amanda. It's not an awful film, and pretty much accomplishes what it set out to do, but the bar was low and no one involved seems to have had much interest in raising it. Strictly for vampire geeks in need of a quick snack and willing to be hungry again within the hour.

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.

BLOODSUCKING BASTARDS is set in the hog-eat-hog world of Big Business. The Cashists (cash-driven Fascists) who rule this particular world are, as the title suggests, real bloodsuckers; literally. It's a good idea for a movie, and it's handled very well, from the performances to the makeup fx, which are particularly well done. Dennis Dugan look-alike Fran Kranz as the unjustly-ousted Evan is the perfect hero: he's never really over the top; his actions and re-actions are well in keeping with his plight. It's common knowledge that corporations eventually turn all employees into automatons or bloodsucking backstabbers, so it's no surprise when the office in BLOODSUCKING BASTARDS eventually becomes "a den of the undead." The idea of corporate vampires is a natural, and this one rates a look.

In the same vein as horror comedies such as Shaun of the Dead, Bloodsucking Bastards tries to deliver laughs and scares but unfortunately fails to bring either to the table.From the beginning you can see exactly what the movie is trying to achieve. An overworked underdog is put into a situation where he has to overcome monsters, get the girl, and avoid impending death. This much is readily Apparent in the trailer and is an easy enough story line to follow for a fun B movie. Unfortunately... you have to care about the characters to actually pull off that story line.The comedic timing is off, and many of the characters are extremely unlikable, which can work in some cases, but in this case just doesn't due to the poor character development and the timing of the jokes.I would say, stream this if you're bored, but don't plan a night around it or buy it.
