5.0 out of 5 stars One of the best!, July 1, 2000

This review is from: Sucker: The Vampire (DVD)

This is not only one of the better Troma releases, it's also one of the better movies I've ever seen. The story is about a vampire who contracts AIDS. Director/writer Hans Rodionoff manages to make a very tragic circumstance, coming down with AIDS, very funny, without making fun of the virus, or those that have it. This is also due to the fine acting of star Alex Erkiletian, playing the comical Reed, the henchman to the lead vampire. I can't recommend this enough. After watching the movie be sure to watch it again, to hear the alternate audio track by Alex and Hans. This is even funnier than the original movie sound. The only drawback is that there are no unique added features to this Troma DVD other than the other audio track. If there were some this would be perfect.

5.0 out of 5 stars A wonderful film!, June 22, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Igor & the Lunatics (DVD)

This is the greatest thing Troma has released in years. Given that their last release was the abyssmal "The Chosen One" this might not sound like much, but this is a great movie. It is about a vampire who gets AIDS. There is a hilarious audio commentary by director Hans Rodionoff and star Alex Erkiletian. The pages from Troma comics are the only bad thing, both on the DVD and in print. Also, no Edge TV, contrary to box. Also nothing new on disc, other than the movie. But the movie is worth it.

This review is from: Sucker: The Vampire (DVD)

i should say that i do make a hobby of watching b movies, and i don't critique them, tear them apart or put them down, i just very much enjoy many of them-- i'd much rather stick to the soft, dark underbelly of the film industry and the birds can have the flashy big-budget hoo-ray-for-hollywood stuff. to me sucker is just a very sweet movie-- i really like vampire stories, heart-warming relationships and quirky/offbeat comedy, all of which (and more) are contained in this piece of work. i like the acting, i think this was well cast, the people seem to really get into their parts in a sincere way. there is a combination of a gothic atmosphere and a warm hearted feeling--which sounds unusual but somehow works very well, and smoothly avoids cliches---a thing which i feel starkly polarizes audiences in the way they react to a film. to me it doesn't matter who knows i'm watching this movie, it's just a touching bit of filmmaking and i'm simply happy to be able to enjoy it.
