Vampires Suck: Press reviews

'A Twilight pastiche with all the wit you'd expect from the makers of Scary Movie and Meet The Spartans. '

'Vampires Suck aims low and hits some astonishingly awful marks.'

'A limp lampoon of the "Twilight" series, seems especially redundant. Aside from the difficulty of spoofing a saga that has always been winkingly aware of its own angsty excesses,'

'All you have to know about this spoof of the Twilight franchise is that it isn't nearly as funny as the movies it's attempting to parody.'

'It's almost fascinatingly awful'

'Compared to this appalling spoof, Twilight is a work of genius'

'I'm not sure if Friedberg and Seltzer have ever written a funny scene in their career, and they don't break that duck here'

'a witless, slavish pastiche of the series of romantic dramas based on Stephenie Meyer's Twilight novels. It is a knowing film that knows nothing about comedy.'

'The duo have some vague understanding of the source material, and Jenn Proske does a spot-on Kristen Stewart impersonation. Now all they need to learn is that the mention of a reality TV show does not, in itself, constitute a joke.'

'Audiences know what to expect from Friedberg and Seltzer by now – pratfalls, fart gags, gay jokes, blunt sexual innuendo, an almost uncanny absence of wit, style or intelligence '

'It's marginally sharper than the likes of Meet The Spartans – yes, that good – but essentially as tatty as a porn parody, without all the best bits.'
