Sucker

Sucker! I love this movie. It's goofy, funny and ridiculous. But it has heart too. It's basically a twisted buddy movie, with Vampires. And it has a nice playful atmosphere about it. Alex Erkiletian's Reed is hilarious. Slightly creepy, but hilarious. The faces he pulls and the way he lurches around. I just love it! Total goofball.

Sucker is a perfect midnight movie. Nothing heavy, but fun.

I picked up this movie expecting to see another lame vampire movie. While it still had some very Tromaesque scenes and dialogue I have to say that over all, I was impressed. It was not a typical troma or vampire movie. It was new and inventive in ways you wouldn't think could be.

The story on the box says it's about a vampire dealing with AIDS. What the box doesn't mention is how interestingly the story is told. The story and characters are balanced on the shoulders of a guy named Reed who is a Renfield type ghoul working for the ailing vampire. His is the only human side of the whole story, which is ironic, because he acts less human than any of the vampires! This guy is special in how weird he is! He comes up with the strangest body movements I have ever seen and has a way of delivering his lines with such an off beat timing that you are forced to accept him as the weirdo he is. Not only do you accept him but you really start to like him. Reed is a true gem to this movie.

The script tells an interesting story. While it does show the signs of low budget filmmaking it also shows a good deal of orginality - originality in the story, in the look and in some of the performances. The visuals of this movie are also interesting. The vampires' world has strange camera shots and very deep red and blue lighting while the regular world is, well, normal looking.

If you don't like weird horror comedy movies, you most likely won't like this one. If, however, you enjoy a fun and corny low budget movie, I would recommend you see this movie as soon as you can.

This movie is so awesome, Reed is a awesome character! He's works as a henchman for Anthony who's a vampire, his daily routines are working at the hospital and dealing with his ass-hole boss and disposing of the dead bodies in which Anthony sucks the blood out of, and when Anthony finds out he has AIDS Reed jumps to the rescue, the movie is packed with comedy, sick humour and all the things that the Troma Team are famous for!. The Troma Team made a great choice by picking up this title for their ever expanding libary of classic independant Art!...I can't wait for SUCKER 2!...Also check out the Sucker DVD for the hilarious commentary track!.....Long Live Seed Productions!!

10/10!

Invite Sucker to enter your home and you are in for 91 minutes of freaky fun.

Bent in the best possible way, this movie is stolen by Reed, who instead of stealing bodies, "donates" them to the hospital where he works.

Alex Erkiletian is Reed and he is a riot! Great comedic timing. But he has his sensitive side too.

All in all, very entertaining. I'll watch it again a few more times.

I am surprised to see this film receive such a low rating here on IMDb. For what it is (a low budget horror-comedy), it's great! The plot is solid and most of the characters are fantastic. The highlight of the film is Reed Buccholz, the wacky lovable vampire sidekick. The movie will keep you entertained to say the least. The production values are not bad at all and many of the shots are actually quite nice. I was hoping for a Sucker II, but I haven't heard anything about a sequel in a long time.

Fans of b-movies, you will surely enjoy this. If you are looking for a truly scary film or something more mainstream, this is not for you.
