Chuck Steel: Night of the Trampires

I had never heard about the 2018 animated comedy "Chuck Steel: Night of the Trampires" before now in 2022 as I happened to stumble upon it by sheer luck. I immediately took a liking to the movie's cover and the title, and figured that this was something that I just had to watch. Writer and director Mike Mort delivered something truly unique and memorable here with "Chuck Steel: Night of the Trampires", and it is without a doubt something you have to sit down and watch, should you find yourself with the opportunity to do so. The storyline told in "Chuck Steel: Night of the Trampires" was just brilliant. It was a great comedy story spruced up with action and vampires, well not vampires, but trampires technically. And it was just so well-written that it was great fun. Lots of interesting and funny things and characters throughout the entire 90 minutes that it ran for. I liked the animation used in "Chuck Steel: Night of the Trampires". It worked so marvelously in favor of the movie. And the attention to detail was just spectacular. And the animators really managed to bring the characters and their surroundings to life in a wholesome manner. Now, I can't claim to be familiar with any of the voices of the voice cast ensemble, but people were definitely bringing their characters to life in a great way. And with "Chuck Steel: Night of the Trampires" being an animated movie, of course having a properly talented voice acting cast is everything. I was genuinely entertained by "Chuck Steel: Night of the Trampires" and can warmly recommend you watch this. My rating of "Chuck Steel: Night of the Trampires" lands on an eight out of ten stars.

Well what other way could it go, right? If the word "bonkers" can be applied to any movie at all, it is this one right here. It might be tough to follow the story, if as some might argue there is one to follow, because you are going to be constanctly distracted. This does not play in the realm of the real world ... I know "duh!", but it has to be said. So there are a lot of things happening, including sexual acts, violent acts and just overall crazy things. If you cherish political correctness, need clear structure and/or are easily offended anyway - well do not watch this movie! Unless you hate yourself or feel you have to punish yourself I guess. Seriously though: this is really way out there, especially when it comes to its humor ... you've been warned, now enjoy

Just recently watch this film and it is nothing short of a masterpiece, the story of the development of this film when mike originally write the script in 2001 and the character conceived in school is very much a an epic underdog tale in its self. Anyway, moving on to the film its self it has got a short film based in 1986, Chuck Steel: Raging Balls of Steel Justice which I also highly recommend watching as it is available to watch online for free and is 14 minutes long which gives you a insight into the world of Chuck. The feature film it self is truly stunning, I came out of the theatre speechless. The visuals of the film are beautiful with the right style and cinematography to give you the style of of a classic 80's action film. The story of the film was lovely were you get the development through the film and the film is really hilarious with brilliant comedy that really had me laughing constantly thought the film. The film is definitely intended for an adult and is one definitely to add to your list of films to watch (High up that list I may add).

Amazing throwback/ homage to 80's cop movies. Way between than Team America. Why hadn't I even heard of this flick? Just pure enjoyment and an undiscovered gem.

Nice to see this was made in Wales, being Scottish myself. Like his first Chuck Steel movie, it looks great, this one even better. Incredible given the small budgets. Must have bust balls to produce the movies on such a low budgets. The humour is off beat; given it is a homage to 80s genre movies, that not surprising. Did like the fact Mike Mort branched in to horror more with this sequel. His character Chuck Steel was more developed and funnier in this movie than the original. Director has a history with the Wallace and Gromit team, and this is evident in the model sculptures-but he takes the animation much further technically. There are elements of Sam Rami, Peter Jackson, among a few. Adult animation is clearly struggling looking at the low number of reviews thus far. I can't imagine why, as it is hugely entertaining. Us British have a habit of making American style movies better than the Americans. Ridley and Tony Scott are an example of that. Even Grand Theft Auto the video game is partially created in Edinburgh for some reason. They did a grand fine job of it regardless. Hope again that it finds the audience it deserves & it get a decent distributor.

This is another film that thinks if you keep hitting the viewer over and over with the same S#!^ it will make you think it's funny. It is not! I could only stand the first 35min. Before I had to stop watching. I don't know how it ends and I don't care, and neither did the people who made this picture. It is nothing more than a string of bad ideas one after another. If you are not a 12 year old boy watching with a bunch of you friends, laughing at the cursing, the lame sexual jokes and over the top violence. Give the flick a hard pass.

CHUCK STEEL: NIGHT OF THE TRAMPIRES (2022) I absolutely adored this fantastically Animated comedic take on Action and Horror films from the 80s📼 If you grew up in the 80s on a diet of Hollywood Action films and Cult Horror from the Vhs era you will love this Animated Action comedy Horror📼 From the Writer and Director of GOG'S (1995-2000) Mike Mort comes CHUCK STEEL: NIGHT OF THE TRAMPIRES and I've gotta say he's crafted a fantastically twisted unPC homage to the films I hired from the many Video Shops here in Carlisle The film is crammed with movie references and Homages there are to many to mention but all the more fun for you the watcher to spot them all,I loved every minute of it. This is a must watch film for any cult movie fan 📼 I really can't praise it enough go hire it for £4.99 or buy it for £9.99 on Amazon until the Blu Ray gets released and buy a physical copy I loved this and will be watching it again multiple times. I do hope we get more adventures with CHUCK STEEL so go on Amazon and Hunt it out and enjoy the madness.

If you're reading the other enthusiastic, high-mark reviews on IMDB and thinking FAKE FAKE - you'd be wrong! Whilst some of the non-PC humour is a bit hit and miss, the SXF and outstanding animation more than make up for it. It's so fluid, it's actually hard to believe it's all claymation. There are several laugh-out-loud moments, mostly involving the background characters and one or two things you won't see coming. Lots of homage moments to Mel Gibson in Lethal Weapon, lots of gunfights, and some nice one liners. Worth a watch if you're not easily offended. HARRYHAUSEN!!!

While I found the story to be a bit slow, bland, predictable and dumb at times (not to forget the poor humor).. I couldn't help but admire the impressive production quality in it!! Which was enough for it to warrant a watch. Be it the exquisite clay animation (with movements and details that surprised), model designs, great sound mixing and music choices, sets, lighting, choreography, visual effects, or even the camera work. You name it! I applaud the work of anyone involved.. except whoever was in charge of the script. That is not to say that it doesn't have its moments of brilliance, and a few scenes here and there.. but the layer of "comedy" just drags it down. I'm fine with it being dumb, but not boring. At least I wasn't disappointed with Chuck Steel himself, whom I expected to be your average dumb, loud-mouthed and annoying lead. But he was actually pleasantly written as a decent character. A man of action, with enough brains to be likeable and useful. Sadly, a better story and this would be worth recommending. Wouldn't mind seeing more in a different setting, with a better structure and less stupidity.
