“Vampires Suck” is a parody of the Twilight series including Twilight, New Moon and Eclipse. There are some elements of the TV series, Vampire Diaries, Buffy the Vampire Slayer and True Blood. The opening title of this movie begins with the common logo of twentieth Century Fox. Then we see another logo of The Regency corporation. The movie starts with a scene taken from the middle of the movie. This is done to create a sense of anticipation in the audience, however, it is very familiar to those who have watched New Moon. The scene begins with the establishing shot of the location with the caption appearing at the bottom “Saint Salvatore's day”. The location is an old castle with stone walls and a flag on one of the walls. There are a couple of shots of all the people dressed in red capes. Then there is a wide long shot and then a mid shot of Becca running. Jump cut is used here. Those shots are shown in slow motion and in the background we hear non diegetic dramatic music and a narrative voice of Becca. Then there is another bottom to top panning shot of Edward where he appears in the sunlight and his skin starts gleaming.The mid shot of Edward is taken from a low angle.In that scene mid shot of three Volturi leaders and over the shoulder shot of the main Voulturi leader is used. Then we see a shot of Becca who finally stops and dramatically spreads her hands screaming Edward's name.
Then we see a fan of Edward stopping next to Becca and saying she loves Edward. Then Jacob's fan holding a shovel enters the scene and angrily claims that Jacob is the best and smacks the Edward fan on the face with it. Then we see a high angle shot of the Edward fan and jacob fans heading towards each other for a fight and Becca tries to get through them to reach Edward. We hear non diegetic faint sound of drums beating which is a contrast to what we see as this music indicates something significant and serious is going to happen and the diegetic sound of the screams and the crowd talking. The war like scene here between two fan groups is far from real as no blood is shed and the expressions and movements are more comical. The music here also gets louder and the tempo increases. The still shots are taken to show the fighting with only slight camera movements.
