Suckablood Audience Reviews

SpuffyWeb Sadly Over-hyped
VeteranLight I don't have all the words right now but this film is a work of art.
UnowPriceless hyped garbage
Crwthod A lot more amusing than I thought it would be.
jacobjohntaylor1 This is one of the best short horror films I have seen. It has a great story line. It also has great acting. It also has great special effects. 7.1 is a good ratting. But this is such a great movie. That I 7.1 is underrating it. This is a 9. If it does not scary you no horror movie will. It is very scary. If like good horror stories you will like this movie. It is a classic horror story. See it. It is a great movie. I am running out of thing so say. Great movie great movie great movie great movie. Very scary very scary very scary very scary very scary. I will scary you. It will scary you. It will scary It will scary It will scary.
Horst in Translation ([email protected]) "Suckablood" is a 7-minute (well, really 5 minutes only without credits) live action short film from 2012, so almost 5 years old now. And even if some time has passed, it is still among the most known works for everybody involved, in front of the camera and behind it. This also includes Ben Tillett here, who narrates the tale and was a driving force in making it as well. But this is also where the problems start. The narration to me was in a very comedic tone and I could not take it seriously from a dramatic or horror perspective. This applies to the narrator as well as the film in general. It is about a girl, her mother who curses her and an evil creature who appears as a consequence. Somebody will die, that much is safe. But who will it be? Watch for yourself! Or don't as this little film from Britain does not stand out for any reason whatsoever from the huge wave of modern horror short films. I give it a thumbs-down. I was neither scared nor entertained.
Asten Culloski Genius cinematography and clever structure and progression make Suckablood a very well put-together short film, albeit with an unintentionally comical title. It walks the fine line between a child's cautionary tale and a terrifying horror film, and does it quite gracefully. The narration is perfect and the poem is thoughtful and effective. The only reason I'm not giving it any higher a mark would have to be because of a few clichés and the fact that I would've preferred it to be straight-up terrifying horror film with no child's cautionary tale aspect to it. Though the writing and acting is brilliant, which makes it worth the 7 minutes of your time if you're into horror.
cpeter133 This is a beautifully-done fairy tale in the Old World manner; no pretty princesses and no heroes, just a naughty child, a stern parent, and the inevitable punishment. In this case, the child's unforgivable sin is sucking her thumb. The step-mother calls down the curse of Suckablood, a Nosferatu-like creature who...well, it's pretty obvious. The ending is not.It's certainly reminiscent of Tim Burton, but not just a knock-off of his style. It has its own voice and texture, and is genuinely creepy. The voice work is very good, with the narrator bringing to mind Boris Karloff without doing an imitation of him. I recommend this to anyone with a love for dark humor and impressive animation/live action hybrids.
