| Vampires Suck | comment |
A 2010 film by Seltzer and Friedberg, and the first one to concentrate on parodying a single franchise, rather than the usual system of parodying a single genre like Scary Movie or just parodying everything they could think of like Epic Movie and Disaster Movie. As usual, the film is pretty trope-heavy, with most of them being lampshaded. It stars Matt Lanter, Jenn Proske and Ken Jeong.The movie is a parody of The Twilight Saga, and got quite a bit of success at the box office, perhaps indicating that if there's one thing the public loves to mock more than Seltzer and Friedberg, it's Twilight. While most critics panned the film overall, many of them noted that Jenn Proske's dull-eyed Kristen Stewart impression almost saves it. In early 2011, the film also earned the distinct honor of competing with Twilight itself for four Golden Raspberry Awards, including Worst Picture.Not to be confused with Your Vampires Suck. Definitely not to be confused with the other Vampire parody, Suck: Vampires Rock. | |

Black Comedy: Edward at one point is forced to juggle an apple, a bowling ball and a baby before he catches them in Becca's bag, with the baby landing in second place. Makes Just as Much Sense in Context, to be honest. | |
