Vampires Suck Movie Review
)
Vampires Suck takes the parody-style of Scary Movie to the realm of vampires...or rather, the realm of the Twilight Saga. Kidzworld has the inside scoop.
The film basically summarizes Twilight and New Moon. And in one line, it gives away the entire plot of the upcoming Breaking Dawn film. If you haven’t read the book, this movie will spoil it for you.
It would have been nice if the writers had incorporated the vampire TV shows like The Vampire Diaries or True Blood just to mix up the plot a little. Vampires Suck was strictly making fun of Twilight, with a few references to reality show stars like the Kardashian sisters.
Character Names
All the characters names have been altered slightly—Bella to Becca, Alice to Iris, Jessica to Jennifer, etc. Edward and Jacob got to keep their first names in order to make fun of the “Team Edward” vs. “Team Jacob” conflict. However, their last names were switched from Cullen to Sullen, and from Black to White.
Becca Crane
The characters were well cast, particularly Jenn Proske who played Becca Crane (Bella Swan). She seemed to master the voice, stutter and quick speech that Kristen Stewart has become stereotypically famous for.
Familiar Faces
You’ll recognize a few familiar faces (behind all the make-up, that is). Matt Lanter, who plays Edward Sullen also plays Liam, the mopey on-again, off-again boyfriend of Naomi, on the new 90210. You’ll also know Diedrich Bader who plays Becca’s father as Oswald from The Drew Carey Show.
