Universal Unveils an Official Trailer for the Rock and Roll Horror Comedy Suck

Universal Pictures has picked up Suck for a United Kingdom release with Alliance releasing this rock and roll flavoured film in Canada and E1 Entertainment in the US' (Inside). Now, Universal has released an official trailer for the feature, which is shorter, punchier, and more showy. More footage from the film is displayed along with an announced American DVD release of September 28th. This feature will also be available on Blu-Ray formats. If you are unfamiliar with the story, Suck follows a down and out rock and roll band as they struggle to find popularity. Their new found fame comes at a price as the band members choose to become vampires to stay relevant. The official trailer courtesy of Universal Pictures is below along with a full synopsis.

The synopsis for Suck:

"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 ParĂ©), the bass player, disappears one night with a hip vampire (Dimitri Coats). She emerges with a sexually charged charisma that drives the audiences wild.

Continues...

As the band members succumb, one by one, to blood lust, their “gimmick” launches them into the limelight... 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" (Suck).
