Here is the plot description for “Vampires Suck”:
From motion picture parodists Jason Friedberg and Aaron Seltzer, comes “Vampires Suck”: a comedy with real bite. After successfully skewering Hollywood’s scariest movie (as two of the writers of “Scary Movie”), romantic comedy franchises (“Date Movie”), Hollywood blockbusters (“Epic Movie”), disaster films (“Disaster Movie”) and “300” (“Meet the Spartans”), Friedberg and Seltzer are at it again.
This time, they sink their teeth into today’s hottest pop culture phenomena: vampires and werewolves. The film stars Matt Lanter, who portrays vampire heartthrob Edward Sullen; Chris Riggi, as werewolf Jacob White; and Jenn Proske, as the soulful teen Becca who finds first love with the dreamily befanged Edward.
The movie trailer for “Vampires Suck” can be watched now below.
