If any pop-culture phenomenon ever deserved a send-up, surely it's the Twilight world, with its overheated vampire love and shirtless teenage werewolves. The moment is seized by Vampires Suck, yet another movie parody from the team of Jason Friedberg and Aaron Seltzer, the boys behind Disaster Movie and Meet the Spartans. As in their previous spoofs, Friedberg and Seltzer string together some jokes around the plot, a few topical references, and a barrage of irrelevant pop-culture allusions (unless you can figure out how Tiger Woods, the Kardashians, and Lady Gaga are relevant to the proceedings). The first couple of Twilight pictures are rapidly condensed, with heroine Becca (Jenn Proske) moving to a rainy town in Washington and meeting the unnaturally pale Edward Sullen (Matt Lanter), whose vampire clan can hardly keep from draining Becca's blood on the spot. Of course there's also wolf-boy Jacob (Chris Riggi), who reminds Becca that he is contractually obligated to take his shirt off and expose his bare chest (his torso here is more elaborate than in the real Twilight movies) every 10 minutes. That joke is an example of how far Vampires Suck is behind its own audience; the movie hits the obvious points, with plenty of dead air in between. A few gags pay off, including Jacob's werewolf clan (shirtless, natch) breaking out into a dance routine to "It's Raining Men." And Jenn Proske, in her film debut, does a lights-out impersonation of Kristen Stewart's trembling Bella from the series, right down to every last downward glance and stutter. It's a performance that deserves a better setting. --Robert Horton

5.0 out of 5 stars Great film for all the boyfriends who were draged to the twilight movies! January 12, 2011

By Christopher B Klecz

Format:Blu-ray

I saw this film in theaters. I am in NO WAY a fan of the twilight books, or movies. But, even though I am a sane adult male, I have seen the films, and read all the books. Needless to say, am an informed on the matter of twilight.

I usually stray away from parody movies of late, mostly due to the fact that they are getting dumber and dumber... not to mention more vulgar as each new movie is made. However, the writers of this movie really did their homework. This movie does a great job of taking all those people obsessed with Twilight and giving them a big 'ole middle finger.

All in all, a great movie for anyone who was forced to see or have anything to do with the twilight saga. 5 Stars!

5.0 out of 5 stars This Movie Was Created Just For ME!!! January 6, 2011

By Brina L. Pursley

Format:DVD

This movie only got a 4% on the Rottentomato Rating and in spite of that I still watched it because I knew it would be just for me. I've read the twilight saga(several times)and just loved it. When the movies came out I knew I couldn't possible like them because the book is almost always better than the movie. But curiosity got the better of me and I watched them anyways and to my great horror they were ever worse then I had imagined they would be.
However, Vampires Suck was AWESOME! Just watching Jenn Proske's phenomenal impersonation of Kristen Stewart's twitchy performance was enough to have me laughing like a maniac. So if you fall into the small category of people who've seen and disliked the Twilight movies and also know a lot about the series through the books then you will like this movie.

3.0 out of 5 stars Good for Dumb Laughs January 29, 2011

By Joseph_

Format:DVD

After going through three somehow outragously popular movies and four angst-ridden novels, one would think it was high time for a spoof of Twilight to be born. After all, there are hundreds of them on Youtube, and come on, let's be honest: the franchise practically begs for a good spoof. So I was amused to hear an official one had been scheduled, but thought it wise to save my money and wait to rent the spoof- because frankly, these movies are usually a waste of talent, money, and time.

Clearly from the negative reaction, nobody really liked this movie. But I was surprised to find myself laughing harder than I had in a long time at this silly movie. The humor is well-done and excellently paced, typically lasting five minutes without some gag, and it pokes fun at Twilight in every way imaginable. Granted, most of the humor I laughed so hard at was slap-stick and, in one case, toilet humor (come on, a fart can be occasionally funny). But it was stupid laughs, and I was grateful for this movie cheering me up a bit.

Naturally, these kind of movies come ridden with sexual innuendos, and there were a couple cringe-worthy jokes sprinkled throughout the layers of "Vampires Suck". You have to be ready to ignore these and accept the movie for the bigger picture- it's just a movie making fun of a movie, made by grown-ups who never really grew up.

The acting was well-done, and they all timed their humor perfectly. Some of the gags were outright random (Lady Gaga, vampire squirrel) and others placed there with no coincidence (the joke about Tiger Woods, anyone?), and most of it was unbeliavable and slapstick, but throughly funny. It's almost worrying how perfectly the main actress who portrays Becca (aka Bella) nails Kristen Stewart's awkward lip-biting, twitchy, blinking performance in Twilight. It openly makes fun of Edward, what with his angsty expressions and poofy hair. The movie adds in jokes that you know can be traced directly from Twilight and a few jokes that we as the audience have sufficed (for example, the fact that Bella is a boring, awkward individual, and yet every hot guy has a thing for her).

Overall, it's the kind of movie either you'll like or you'll hate. I fully expected to turn it off halfway through, but ended up enjoying it. Swimming through the vast pop references (I'm shocked Justin Bieber didn't appear somewhere alone the line) and tongue-in-cheek humor (Bella's room has been left exactly the way she left it- quite literally), it's a fun, stupid movie that's worth a rent if you love Twilight, or if you love hating Twilight.
