Don't listen to the Hype. It's awful

It’s an especially fun movie from a director and cast who are clearly having a good time allowing themselves to let loose.

The movie really just wants to entertain people.

Basically, a failed TV pilot that wants to ground a video game.The word "bad" doesn't quite do it justice. The characters are all one dimensional, 'surprises' in the plot twist are non-existent(it's all predictable), the relationships between the characters are both cliché-ridden and yet typical of right-wing 'fantasy'-fiction exceptional ism (the bisexual vampiress, indeed - the perfect paranoid male adolescent's fantasy!) - and what can be said about the 'dialog' (delivered in the hammiest performances I've ever seen)? - Ed Wood would be proud.The action scenes are all right, so I give it an extra star. Otherwise, if it weren't so rapidly paced, it would be excruciatingly dull - indeed, a lot of it is, anyway.Heavy metal music doesn't automatically make a movie exciting. Oh, and I found the gore just plain funny. Vampires eating torn-off limbs - as if at a drive-in fast-food restaurant. Hilarious.Okay if you have nothing better to do with your life.... But of course you do.

Damn, this actually was a lot more fun than I expected it to be! Seriously, if you don't like this, then you're either way too serious or you should just stick to watching Gus Van Sant movies and never visit the modest-budget horror-genre again. "Bloodsuckers" is very tongue-in-cheek. Humanity has moved to outer space, and found out that it's inhabited by lots of vampires. Even different sorts and races of vampires (for example: there are Voorhees and Leatherfaces, so that might give you a hint as to not take it all too seriously). There's a lot of bloodshed and mild gore in this flick (which surprised me, because it seems like this film was made for TV). It's basically some sort of cross between Josh Whedon's "Serenity" and John Carpenter's "Vampires", but yes, of course with a little tighter budget. Michael Ironside is in it too. Though he only has a small roll as a vampire-leader, he really is quite enjoyable, as always. And Natassia Malthe is HOT as hell as the Goth-babe/Half-vampire Quintana! Just beware a little bit of my rather high 7/10 rating. This isn't a prime example of excellent indie-film-making (even if made for TV) and it's not as good as the two aforementioned movies. But when you're going into this one with the right mindset, then you just might have a whole heap of fun with it.

In no way is this your typical B-Movie. I turned it on thinking "Oh great, vampires in space. This should be good for a laugh!". Actually though I thought that the plot was great and, although predictable, was engaging throughout. You just can't change the channel. The producers really made the most out of their budget. It was only 1.7 million, but it looks at least three times that. Natassia Malthe is smokin' hot and the acting from both her and Dominic Zamprogna is excellent. The film has some pretty interesting concepts (vampiric mind sex anyone?) and the use of the many different vampire species pulls the plot along nicely. The vampires themselves were admittedly a bit shaky and didn't really look the part, with the notable exception of Natassia. So overall, I would rate this movie an 8/10. Its fun and engaging, and can easily go toe-to-toe with most blockbuster vampire/sci-fi movies.

This certainly isn't Goodfellas, but it's damn fine fare for what it is: a made-for-TV movie about vampires in space and the slayers who hunt them. But it isn't cheesy and doesn't try to be campy. It's a straightforward sci-fi/horror flick with rich and engaging characters (pared down to archetypes for the time allotted, of course), a fully-developed setting (again, pared for time, but the rich background is obvious in the vampiric languages that are apparently more than gobbledigook and the information given on planets and positions, etc.), a very rapid pace that keeps the story moving without turning into a music video, and pitch-perfect cinematography and direction.It is not flashy or showy, but it's certainly not "sock puppets and CGI." In fact, there is almost none of either. The SFX are actually dependent on make-up, sets, lighting, and acting. Not that there is much SFX to speak of. The focus is on the characters and plot development and both shine. Unlike the aforementioned Buffy and its blatant, cheeseball camp.Obviously set up for series development, I'm shocked and saddened they didn't pursue it. This would make a killer series.
