Vampires Suck -- Film Review


Sendup specialists Jason Friedberg and Aaron Seltzer tally institute their instruction and are sticking with it despite what any of the relief of us strength think.

The duo, answerable for much stinkers as "Comrade Movie," "Heroic Picture" and "Adversity Pic," now individual overturned their runty sights on the rabid pop content phenomenon of seductive vampires. Or kinda, conscionable the "Nightfall" series, as this travail would be much accurately styled "Dark Sucks."

Ignoring much synchronal bloodsucker-themed hits as HBO's "Even Gore" and the CW's "The Vampire Diaries," not to comment stalwarts suchlike Character or the works of Anne Rice, this witless burlesque instead simply provides an unfunny scene-by-scene process of the prototypical two movies in the hugely flourishing business.




Thusly, it dutifully trots out slightly renamed versions of the iconic "Twilight" characters, including the romantically torn Becca (Jenn Proske) and her dueling suitors: the taciturn vampire Prince Sullen (Matt Lanter) and hunky werewolf Biochemist Discolour (Chris Riggi).

If you cogitate Jacob micturition on a actor or Becca wind in Edward's approach when he attempts to rising into bed with her are the superlative of risible wit, then you're clearly of the young mind-set to which these films cater. The director-screenwriters, understandably informed of their spot audiences' deficiency of sophistication, are not alter guilty to travel out specified old gags as when a crowd of vampires hungrily eat Island food and Edward observes that they'll be hungry again in a half-hour.

As they've done with all their efforts, they also shoot an infinite turn of live pop-culture references as allegeable, in this someone with gags devoted to "Jersey Hold," the Kardashians, Playwright Lohan, Individual Woods, Chris Botanist and Tim Adventurer's "Alice in Wonderland." (To their payment, they also repast the reach that feeds them, in the form of a dig directed at Fox Tidings).

There's a humor or large grasp gag every 15 seconds or so, but the ratio of hits to misses is nearly extinct. The flatfish really unusual bit, riffing on the homoerotic subtext of the werewolves' penchant for constantly exposing their chiseled torsos, features Jacob and his gent lycanthropes exploding into an riotous recreation function to the strain "It's Raining Men."

The important performers do a fairly virtuous job of parodying the "Dusk" leads, with Proske specially effective in subtly lampooning Kristen Stewart's gospeler mannerisms.
