Vampires Suck (2010)


Vampires suck, albeit had a few moments of laugh, but those moments did not last long. It is a spoof of The Twilight saga and kicks off with the Prologue of the New Moon. Those HA-HA moments that used to go non-stop in the movies by Craig Mazin ( Superhero movie, Scary Movie 3,4) were totally not present in this stuff. There are moments where the story goes as slow as the Twilight saga and there are punches that come out of the blue thus proving it to be a comedy but frankly speaking the humour was cheesy and short lived. A few moments are there where u can find yourself laughing your bellies out like the scene where Jacob turns into a chihuahua or the scene where the vampires get recognised as The Black eyed Peas by David DeLuise ( The Fisherman ) or Edward calling himself a killer while shooting Alice as she sneaks into a hole. Jenn Proske however played Kristen Stewart quite impressively appending some moments of smile while Matt Lanter contributed equally well.Anneliese van der Pol played Jennifer nicely. It is good to see her in movies every now and then away from TV shows like That's So Raven. Although the effort was great it could have been much better if Craig Mazin was allowed to direct this one. The story's end was however not entirely the way you would expect as eventually Matt Lanter is murdered by a Team Jacob's fan who pops up out of nowhere and bludgeons him to death in one blow. An abrupt ending. Then again it is a spoof what else can you expect ? If a critic is supposed to rate this movie then he'd definitely end up giving it a single star while as a Hollywood lover I'd go for a 3. If my opinions are concerned, I'd rather not suggest this movie to anyone. Superhero movie was far better than all the spoofs I had watched. Watching this wasn't although a mistake but suggesting it to others might become one. So I'd rather not recommend this one.
