About Don't Suck (2023) — Comedy Meets Vampires in Raja Collins' Wild Ride
Raja Collins' *Don't Suck (2023)* blends sharp comedy with a darkly absurd twist in this chaotic romp about a fading stand-up comic clawing his way back into the spotlight. Middle-aged Pete Brennan's career has stalled in greasy-spoon clubs, but when he lands a shot on Russell Peters' network special, he begrudgingly takes a bizarre opening act: Ethan Barr, a 400-year-old vampire whose first meal in decades ends on stage mid-performance. As Pete navigates the tour's surreal challenges—including a bloodthirsty heckler's untimely demise—the film balances cringe humor with supernatural stakes, all wrapped in the gritty neon glow of late-night comedy circuits.
The atmosphere crackles with the tension of a career on the brink and the unhinged energy of a creature unused to modern life, making *Don't Suck* a genre-mashing treat for fans of both laughs and chills. Whether you're drawn in by Jamie Kennedy's trademark sarcasm or Carrot Top's cameo as a delightfully unhinged roadie, Collins' debut delivers a ride that's equal parts heartfelt and grotesque—like a vampire's first bite of vegan food.
