How sad is this?

The movie's neither hopeful in contrived ways, nor hopeless in different contrived ways. Somehow it manages to be wonderful

An old-fashioned movie made with new-fashioned finesse.

The acting in this movie is really good.

Okay I've seen worse, but yeah not too impressive movie and takes far too long time for any bloodsucking to commence, first half of the movie is pretty much a (mostly mean-spirited) office comedy with mostly unlikeable characters.The second half, or to be correct the last 30 minutes is rather entertaining and action-packed but we had to sit through 50 minutes of (mostly) unfunny jokes and little plot to get there, and you have to judge the movie on a whole not a good last third.Horror in the office can be done well 'NOT SAFE FOR WORK (2014)' with Max Minghella is a good example of that, or if you need a bit of comedy in your office-horror 'INHUMAN RESOURCES' aka 'REDD INC. (2012)' is a much better alternative than this.

Snarky horror-comedy that tries to blend the vibes of "Office Space" and "From Dusk 'Till Dawn" but doesn't quite have the wit or skill to pull it off. The comedy isn't as flat as the generic action sequences even if it goes mostly for good-natured laughs that lack, shall we say, the bite one might want from a vampire comedy. Too many of the cast members (especially Joey Kern and Pedro Pascal) are stuck doing shtick that seems like it could be thrown into any number of stories or sketches -- only Marshall Givens as a caffeine-fueled security guard and the underused Sean Cowhig as Jerry the Janitor manage to bring some spark of specificity to their roles. I wouldn't question the taste or sanity of anyone who enjoyed this film more than I did -- it isn't an abject failure -- but if you want to see Fran Kranz in a far superior example of comedic horror (one that actually doesn't forget it's a horror film), watch "Cabin in the Woods."

In the same vein as horror comedies such as Shaun of the Dead, Bloodsucking Bastards tries to deliver laughs and scares but unfortunately fails to bring either to the table.From the beginning you can see exactly what the movie is trying to achieve. An overworked underdog is put into a situation where he has to overcome monsters, get the girl, and avoid impending death. This much is readily Apparent in the trailer and is an easy enough story line to follow for a fun B movie. Unfortunately... you have to care about the characters to actually pull off that story line.The comedic timing is off, and many of the characters are extremely unlikable, which can work in some cases, but in this case just doesn't due to the poor character development and the timing of the jokes.I would say, stream this if you're bored, but don't plan a night around it or buy it.

This film is described as "An action-packed horror comedy." I call foul. It is maybe 30% action with the rest being an unfunny Office. 40mins into the film and were still being treated to office politics of passed over promotions, preparing presentations, office romances gone awry and the new douchey manager! 43mins in something actually starts to happen but still not something that could be classed as "action."At minute 51 Joey Kern turns into the funniest character in the film with the best lines, best facial expressions and best comedic timing. So, basically, get through 50mins of a snail's pace and you're rewarded, somewhat, with 30mins of fun.
