aa SUCK (2009).>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>SPOILERS>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> >>
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Absolute gem about a struggling Rock band ("The Winners", no less) whose lovely Female Bass Player (Jessica Pare) , after being Vampirized, infects the rest of the band and they find success beyond their wildest dreams. Will they be able to control their urges and keep ahead of Eddie Van Helsing (Malcolm McDowell), a Vampire slayer who is afraid of the dark?
Writer/director/Star Rob Stefanuik does a terrific job on all counts and even writes much of the material "The Winners" perform in the film...real good and sounding a lot like Green Apple Quickstep,( a great indie band from the 90's whose 1995 LP RE-LOADED is highly recommended) along with other great songs by other artists and any film that has The Stooges "T.V. EYE"-twice to boot- is all right by Me.
Lots of reference to Classic Rock albums covers (We spotted ABBEY ROAD, ELECTRIC WARRIOR, THE KIDS ARE ALRIGHT and BORN IN THE USA) and many Rock Stars in here like Moby (very much like GG Allin), Henry Rollins, Iggy Pop, Alice Cooper and his Daughter Calico as well as a Canadian rocker who is hilarious as a Border Guard...it just wouldn't be cricket to reveal the name. ****
