Rob Stefaniuk’s upcoming vampire rock comedy SUCK is looking like it’s going to be pretty hit or miss. Don’t get me wrong now, the thing is looking pretty decent and as long as it doesn’t take itself too seriously we may have an awesome flick on our hands… but the cameo-infested cast just doesn’t sit right with this schmuck. Alas we’ll all be able to decide for ourselves where SUCK stands once it hits DVD on September 28th.
Actually the last update we got on the film was back in June, when we found out it’d be hitting DVD this September. Now they’re a little late to the party but to celebrate the announcement it seems E1 Entertainement are unleashing a few more stills from the horror/comedy to try and sell you on this one if you haven’t been yet. The stills can be found directly above and below and showcase Iggy Pop, Alice Cooper and Jessica Pare. Scroll away and enjoy!
A rock’n’roll vampire spoof about a down and out band, The Winners, who will do anything for a record deal. When their disgruntled manager (Dave Foley) tells them that they are getting “long in the tooth”, he doesn’t know that his words are truly prophetic. During a road trip, their humdrum image radically changes when Jennifer (Jessica Paré), the bass player, disappears one night with a hip vampire (Dimitri Coats). She emerges with a sexually charged charisma that drives the audiences wild.
As the band members succumb, one by one, to blood lust, their “gimmick” launches them into the limelight. Following an “incident” on a national radio show with “Rock’n Roger” (Henry Rollins), they hit mega-stardom beyond their wildest dreams. Joey (Rob Stefaniuk), the lead singer, is haunted by an eerie bartender (Alice Cooper), who turns out to be much more. Meanwhile, legendary vampire hunter, Eddie Van Helsig (Malcolm McDowell), is tracking them down, despite his fear of the dark. When a veteran music producer (Iggy Pop) calls them on becoming a vampire freak show, they begin to realize that fame is not what it’s cracked up to be.
Get ready for SUCK to rock your world come September 28th!
