PUNCHY FANTASTIC ROMANCE
With
Damian Hardung, Stipe Erceg, Lisa-Marie Koroll
During a boxing match, the feisty Zelda knocks out the mysterious Ben. It's love at first sight. But their romance is impossible: they're both hiding a heavy secret.
The romance between Zelda, a carnival boxer, and Ben, an immortal vampire, is the starting point for Love Sucks, a horrific and ambitious retelling of Romeo and Juliet. To make matters worse in this delicate and unexpected situation, Zelda discovers that her family has been stalking Ben's for years. Will their love survive this inter-family war? Created by Marc O. Seng, whose credits include Dark (2017-2020), this German genre series features a brilliant young cast and brings a breath of fresh air to a universal story.
