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.

Why does pop culture love vampires and werewolves?
Because they are as weird and alien on the outside as we all are on the inside.
vampires vs werewolves
I think some people like what they represent, strength, immortality, danger.
vampires
they are cool
Why does pop culture love vampires and werewolves?
coz they like the fact that they can be sexier and immortal forever :)
vampires
People like vampires because they represent power & strength.
Pop culture loves vampires & werewolves...
Because it gives people the hope that there is more out there than meets the eye. If vampires and werewolves were real it means that the impossible could be possible which is definitely weird but cool at the same time.
Vampires & Werewolves
The fact that they are unattainable makes them more desireable!!! Also the special powers and abilities that each of them have also make them even more appealing. Plus having actors like Edward Pattinson & Taylor Lautner be the vampires and werewolves doesn’t hurt with their popularity.
REASONS
WELL THEY ARE REALLY HOT. WHAT MORE CAN WE ASK.
Why
Because we love goofy shit!
Why Does Pop Culture Love Vampires and Werewolves?
Because most people, given the opportunity, would change into something bigger and better than themselves. Society has made vampires and werewolves sexy and who doesn’t want to be that?
