Critics Consensus

Bloodsucking Bastards gets a few gallons of B-movie fun out of its sanguine humor and solid cast, even if it isn't quite as wild as its title might suggest.

The Hollywood Reporter

Hardly state-of-the-art but offers enough bro banter to amuse, especially in the hands of this unexceptional but likable cast.

"Bloodsucking Bastards" simply isn't worth the time it takes to get rolling.

I'm forgiving of DIY productions that work without much of a bottom line, but there are some basic film techniques that still need to be considered, and don't cost a dime.

Rated: 2.5/4

Bloodsucking Bastard is not a bad movie, but it's not the best horror-comedy either. It's fun and enjoyable, but not particularly memorable.

Rated: 3/5

There's a very fine line to this type of comedy, and Bloodsucking Bastards falls over on the side of hitting the same slack-is-hip note too many times.

Rated: B-

The movie is full of rapid-fire jokes and asides, delivered with complete nonchalance, and the humor is wonderfully on-target and unforced.

They say some movies are so bad they are good.... this is not one of them. A lacklustre script, wooden acting and mediocre at best special effects make this only effective as an intentional tax loss for investors. I suppose however you could credit it as a vampire movie as by the end you have had the life sucked out of you. One to recommend to someone you dislike.

Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars

This film reminded me a lot of Shaun of the Dead with it's comedic tone mixed in with violence and horror theme. What I really wished was this movie didn't play it so safe though. There were moments where I was really laughing out loud and other moments where I was scratching my head. The movie's premise is a simple one where Vampires invade an office space and you can figure out the rest. I was entertained throughout but it was forgettable in the end. Pedro Pascal chews up every scene he is in and you can tell he is having fun. This film forfilled it’s purpose and gets a 2 1/2 star rating out of 5

A fun, schlocky gore fest with Pedro Pascal as a vampire. The effects are extremely well done and the story is easy to follow. A great little popcorn flick to enjoy.
