Today’s tour stop – Spunk on a Stick’s Tips - with a post entitled “Window into the Soul.”
Thanks again to those who commented at yesterday’s post at Confessions of a Watery Tart. If you didn't, feel free to add your snark to the rather long list.
And I need a little help with this NaNoWri Mo thing. Everyone is talking about NaNo and ‘buddy me’ – but most of you aren’t using your names! So, I’m having trouble finding everyone. If you are participating, please leave your NaNo name in the comments so I can find you. I am listed under AlexJCavanaughI still hope to see RED at some point! In the meantime, I leave you with this review, courtesy of NetFlix.
SUCKA band finds their popularity growing as members turn into vampires.
Rob Stefaniuk wrote, directs, and stars as the lead singer. He even wrote the band’s music, which is actually not bad. Malcolm McDowell is Eddie Van Helsing, and all sorts of musicians make appearances in this film, including Alice Cooper, Iggy Pop, and Henry Rollins. Alex Lifeson (from the awesome band RUSH) is a Canadian border officer and Moby is a headbanger who enjoys raw meat thrown at his band during performances. (I guarantee you've never seen this side of Moby. Ever!)
With an 80’s vibe, SUCK is very quirky and original – and a lot of fun!
Huh, Suck sounds interesting, I'll keep it in mind!
ReplyDeleteNaNo. MelissaWideen. I'm adding you right now
Malcolm McDowell is always worth watching. Not sure about Moby as a carnivore, though.
ReplyDeleteSuck sounds interesting. I look into it. Am I the only one not taking part in NaNo? It scares me a little. I'm not sure I need that pressure right now.
ReplyDeleteSuck sure got my attention and I think I've already found you on NaNo!
ReplyDeleteTalk to you later, NaNo-buddy!
CD
I will def check out Suck. Sounds like something I would enjoy big time!
ReplyDeleteSorry Alex, just not my thing. I can't seem to get into vampires and zombies. :>(
ReplyDeleteyes, you got me fooled (and must admit a bit shocked) with the tittle again :)
ReplyDeleteAnother one I think my son would like! Ha.. Thanks for the 'review' and sharing!! Have a wonderful Wednesday, Alex!!
ReplyDelete~ Coreen
good luck with nano!
ReplyDeleteEnjoy Nano-ing!!!!
ReplyDeleteSuck sounds just weird - it is a comedy right?!!?
Take care

You're never home anymore ;)
ReplyDeleteInteresting title, indeed.
I'll email you my NaNo info...
Off to catch your post at Spunk's.

Thoughts in Progress
Randy Johnson gave a nice review to your book. Over at Not the Baseball Pitcher.
ReplyDeleteSuck sounds like one crazy movie.
ReplyDeleteNow I'm off to your post at Spunky's blog.
Is Suck as awesome as a SyFy Saturday night original movie? Because it kind of sounds like it might be.
ReplyDeleteIf you've never seen a SyFy Saturday night original movie, I think you're missing out. They're the most horrible, cheesy movies ever created with the absolute worst storylines and special effects. It always made my mind boggle that a network that could produce such crap would also produce the genius Battlestar Galactica.
suck, sounds interesting i read about it somewhere... and since i don't follow vampire-ish films... i lost, i am interested in it.. the cast rocks!
ReplyDeleteJust a quick Nano drop in: solstice1974
ReplyDeleteI'm adding you too.
I added you as a buddy. My user name is smua.
ReplyDeleteI'll put SUCK on by Netflix list. Way down at the bottom, but its on it. And I'm on my way to Diane's blog.
ReplyDeleteI saw RED this weekend, and thought it was pretty fun. John Malkovich was the crowning jewel, for sure.
ReplyDeleteSuck and here I thought you were venting :) I watched Red over the weekend but I'll wait for your review.
ReplyDeleteAlso I wanted to thank you for reading and commenting on my blog. With all your success and the # of followers I feel super special. I needed that, thanks.
Jules @ Trying To Get Over The Rainbow
Thanks for the tour update and the review too!
ReplyDeleteSuck looks like it actually won't Suck. BTW...I read the title too fast and thought the post was a bout Sputnik.
ReplyDeleteI know it's totally silly, but I love Henry Rollins in movies! And Malcolm McDowell is a great pull for me, too.
ReplyDeleteSee you at Diane's site! Thanks for the movie info. And not doing NaNoWriMo. Good luck!

You are everywhere lately!
ReplyDeleteEnjoy NaNo! I did it last year but not this year. It was a great experience though.
I'm going to have to check out Suck. I'm a sucker for 80s camp.
ReplyDeleteCrap, I just realized what I did there. Sorry for the terrible pun.
My NaNo name is WitlessExposition. Looking forward to seeing what you do!
Awesome title. No NaNo for me. I will look for Suck.
ReplyDeleteThat sounds like a fun movie, actually. Thanks for the review!
ReplyDeleteI added you on NaNo, I think. I'm under Karen77. I set that name up before I started using my full name on my blog, and forgot to change it when I had the chance. Next year, I guess...
Good luck with NaNoWriMo! *skips over to add you* I'm bookworm0753 there.
ReplyDeleteMoby and raw meat? Haha. Good luck with NaNo- I'm in there somewhere, but I'm not doing it this year. (I can't even remember what my "name" is..oops)
ReplyDeleteMJ, he filled the role well!
ReplyDeleteChristine, no pressure.
Dezz, I'm on a roll!
Kitty, yes, it's a comedy.
Tara, two more days of my tour and then I'm home!
Charles, I will go look!
Haleine, it's nothing like SyFy's movies! And yes, I've seen many - even did a play-by-play on Sharktopus last month.
Jules, I enjoy your blog!
Sputnik! Maybe I need to blog about that just for you, Copyboy.
Abby, that's funny.
Thanks everyone for leaving your NaNo names!
You and your misleading titles...
ReplyDeleteSuck sounds entertaining. Will have to keep an eye out!
Sorry, not doing NaNo. Glad you could visit my blog today!
ReplyDeleteWhy am I not surprised that Henry Rollins is in this movie.
ReplyDeleteMoby as a carnivore made me LOL!
I am on the fence about Nano--probably not doing it, but I might change my mind...
Interesting to hear you liked it so much. I've heard nothing but bad things about it. Interesting indeed.
ReplyDeleteSounds interesting!
ReplyDeleteGreat post over at L Diane's, btw!
I really really want to see Red, too! Hope you all are okay. We've been in the middle of it with this crazy stuff. Be safe.
ReplyDeleteGood topic on Diane's blog. NaNo will soon be here. I'm hoping for a wash of inspiration this weekend so I'll have something to write about.

Tossing It Out
Suck does sound sort of interesting! I think you found me, but if not, I am hartjohnson.
ReplyDeleteThanks for having me yesterday, Alex--that is the highest comments I've gotten--I know it is small potatoes to you, but both as my blog record for YOU, and people reading and commenting on me HERE were personal bests, so I really appreciate it!
Dude, where do you find these films??? I've never even heard of half the movies you review!! Very cool, though. I was just listening to the 80's radio station today. Feeling nostalgic all of a sudden. but man, I don't even know if our movie rental place will have this one in stock!
ReplyDeleteMaybe I should run a side pool about when you'll actually see RED :)
ReplyDeleteLydia, there's still time!
ReplyDeleteBryan, really? Maybe people are taking it too serious.
Hart, glad my Army turned out for you! Thanks again, I really appreciated it.
Carolina, I found it on NetFlix. I do a lot of browsing there...
Carol, might be another way to make some money!
That's an interesting title for a movie. It could lead to all kinds of comments good and bad using the title for unkind puns.
ReplyDeleteHope your blog tour is doing well.
Hmm, This is the first that I've heard about Suck.
ReplyDeleteI'm too chicken to try NaNoWriMo. I don't have a story in me that wants to come out. How sad is that?
I sent you a NaNo PM with my info. Good luck!
ReplyDeletehahah woooow that movie looks pretty uh... weird :P
ReplyDeleteLoved the blog combination!!! Always keep me guessing... or do I always keep you guessing?
ReplyDeleteI'd never have picked up that movie from the cover, but it sounds like fun!
ReplyDeleteI'm still tossing NaNo back and forth... can't decide. But I'm jemifraser over there :)
Suck sounds...amusing.
ReplyDeleteI'm LynFaw in NaNo (we are buddies already)
Despite the fact that I'm an 80s child I've never seen Suck. I'll have to rectify that at some point.
ReplyDeleteJai
Hahahha. Looks like an....interesting movie.
ReplyDeleteThat sounds very interesting... I love the 80's. I'll have to check it out, thanks :)
ReplyDeleteSusan, it's going great!
ReplyDeleteAleta, you could always write a month's worth of blog posts.
Hiphop, weird but fun!
Jen, I have to do something to stay ahead of the pack.
Jai, it's a trip.
I have had Suck on my watch list the summer so your review gives me hope to finally pull the trigger and get it.
ReplyDeleteI read your interview at Spunk on a Stick's Tips - very interesting! My wip has characters who use telepathy, too.
ReplyDeleteI'm not doing NaNo, but best of luck to you!
Alex - Suck sounds like fun! I'll have to give it a try. Thanks. =D
ReplyDeleteHa, ha! LOVE your post title today!
ReplyDeleteI`ll come back with my NaNo ID once I`m registered there. And SUCK sounds like one to catch - I`ll check it out.
Very cool. I loved Alice Cooper in Wayne's World.
ReplyDeleteI'm glad that SUCK is actually quite fun, I was afraid that it was a 'so bad, it's actually really bad' movie, but I'm glad it's got that kitsch 80's vibe too.
ReplyDeleteBy the way, I'm james.gryste on NaNoWriMo :)
Thanks, Susan! It's a fun concept, isn't it?
ReplyDeleteIshta, let me know!
Jamie, I'll go find you! And Suck is just fun.
Well, I think you found me there, but I'll pop in with MY NaNo Nam: SFDaddy. Sounds like a ton of fun and I'm looking forward to it. See you all there next week!
ReplyDeleteSUCK sounds like something I'd love. I'm going to rent it next time I feel like watching movies.
ReplyDeleteMy NaNo user name: J.D.Brown
I've added you as well.
