Storyline

Frank Crane, sheriff of Washington's Spork town, welcomes back his daughter Becca. However obvious the signs, she takes forever to recognize its Halloween-like decoration hardly masks the omnipresence of bizarrely clumsy vampires and werewolves, even in the case of her devoted youth friend Jacob White, whose canine traits extend from a tail to the irresistible urge to chase cats. She falls in love with sickly pale Edward Sullen, member of the depressed, bloodthirsty adopted family of Dr. Carlton.

A Silly but Funny Spoof of "Twilight" and "New Moon"

"Vampires Suck" is a silly but funny spoof of "Twilight" and "New Moon". The writers and directors Jason Friedberg and Aaron Seltzer made a parody of practically every important scene and dialogs of the stories of Stephenie Meyer. If the viewer likes this type of joke and sees the movie with low expectations, he or she will probably enjoy "Vampire Sucks". The name of the town, Sporks, means a hybrid form of cutlery with the form of a spoon-like shallow scoop with the addition of three or four tines of a fork; therefore another hilarious joke with the name of Forks. My vote is four.
