Rarely stupid movie. Fortunately, it lasts below average, about 80 minutes. It is so dumb that it even gives it some charm. I think it has social message and it's basically parody to modern business, but it does not make it any less retarded. :D4/10

Tired of working in a dead-end job, a man slowly comes to realize that the fellow workers are slowly being turned into vampires by his new boss and must rally the remaining unturned workers who believe him and stop the vampires from taking over their job.This here was a somewhat problematic though really fun effort. What really turns this one down is the fact that there's just not a whole lot of the film that really makes it appealing which comes from the fact that it's mainly about the most unappealing cast ever. The fact that this one concerns the group who are adamantly against their career goals who turn everything into a party at their job and are absolutely complacent in their desire to slag off their work in favor of goofing on each other which doesn't make them all that appealing as their do-anything-but-their-job mentality doesn't make them engaging. The bonding nature of their attitudes towards each other and the rather generalized working-place humor featured here aren't that funny and they just tend to go for so long that this section is just not that funny in the slightest. Even with the utterly goofy way it goes about trying to show them stumbling along with the discovery of what's going on doesn't really generate the real kind of laughs it should as the concept here could've provided this one with a great deal more zany comedy had this part here been fixed. Still, there's quite a lot of enjoyable elements present here with quite some good points to it. One of the main pluses is that once it turns into a funny turn with the comedy there's a rather great deal more energy to come from this one which picks up significantly as the group finally understands their predicament with the vampires finally coming to task and really generating more goofy set-ups of them going after them. The action in the final half where they go into the backstory of having to replay the events in motion which alerts them to vampires being there and then have to fight their way through the horde working in the building and gets up to the really impressive fight in the main floor against the head vampire which generates a ton of fun bloodletting amidst the generous action that is still gloriously goofy and silly while still being serious enough to be scary enough. Given the boost from the early build-up scenes that set the stage for these scenes, that really helps this scenes work even better with that continuing in the same manner of having the comedy sitting alongside the horror and gives this a big boost during this half which does help to overcome the rather banal setup in the first half. That is what really holds this one back during the film.Rated R: Graphic Violence and Graphic Language.

Bloodsucking Bastards (2015) is a beautifully put together comic based vampire flick packed with laughter, bloody gore, and did I mention laughter. Wow, the dark comedy of this film kept everything rolling as it brought in the "Shaun of the Dead" style feel to it. The graphics were great, the storyline was remarkably funny; and well constructed; the cast were on point all the way through it. This is a very well put together film, highly recommend if you're looking for a good laugh.Finally a movie that has all of the perks to enjoy it! I'm a fan of vampire films, and I really love dark comedy; this film has it all. It was completely enjoyable, and following the characters as they each come into light it was more like living at my job; great stuff.

Bloodsucking Bastards (2015)If the film's title Bloodsucking Bastards hasn't given you a clue as to what to expect here then maybe the tagline 'Work it sucks the life out of you' will. Yep, this a vampire comedy horror billed as 'Office Space meets Shaun of the Dead'. By comparing itself to two cult flicks where laughs are high sets an awfully high precedent for director Brian James Connell's movie. It is a level that it fails to reach but that doesn't mean that his premise, where the bosses are literally sucking the staff dry in order to improve a company's performance, is without any charm or fun along the way.It's initially difficult to warm to our lead character Evan (Fran Kranz). He's no Shaun, as in Shaun of the Dead. Sure Shaun is put upon at work, has a slobby best mate and girlfriend issues, but his circumstances are more or believable, and therefore more relatable. Evan is too much of a victim. for the most part, so it's no easy to emphasis with him.Evan has messed up with HR director Amanda (Emma Fitzpatrick), with whom he is romantically entangled, or was until he responded badly to her saying she loved him one evening. Evan finds solace in believing that a forthcoming promotion to Sales Manager will be his only to find it offered to a company outsider. The outsider is smarmy, slimy, slick Max (Pedro Pascal), an old rival of Evan's. No sooner has Max made himself known co-workers start disappearing and/or change into a more aggressive persona with Evan's colleagues slow to pick up on the changes.Obviously filmed on a budget, but filmed and played with enthusiasm and glee, Bloodsucking Bastards overcomes its shaky start - it takes awhile to warm to the characters - and never overplays the vampire angle with puny related puns. Some visual panache is called for rather than the static camera-work on offer and it's also slow in finding its feet. The screenwriters clearly enjoyed dispensing the earlier 'witty' and crude insults, failing to realise that their script works better with the lighter asides - such as colleagues asking what the character Dave actually does each day at work aside from going around telling people they owe him money.Fran Kranz (Evan) will be familiar to genre fans as the stoner from the overrated The Cabin in the Woods however the real stars in Bloodsucking Bastards are Joey Kern, as Evan's laid-back best friend Tim and David F. Park as Dave who seems to have no real function in their workplace. Things get suitably bloody come the climax and the earlier reservations are completely forgotten. Bloodsucking Bastards plays like Shaun of the Dead, albeit with vampires and not zombies, and whilst it's not in the same league is does pick up halfway through and becomes a lot of fun.Check out more of my reviews at www.mybloodyreviews.com
