Vampires Suck is a spoof film on the Twilight movies and comes from directors Jason Friedberg and Aaron Seltzer who have been behind many films in the spoof genres, such as the Scary Movie Franchise.
The trailer starts serious with non-diagetic choir music with a long distance shot of a car driving through a forest, alone on a long and winding road, this is filmed in the same colour tone as the twilight films (dark, washed out and pale). Text appears on cut shots to a black screen with smoke billowing in the background interspersed with cut scenes of sunsets and forests, this writing is pale and is again in the theme of the colouring and tone of the previous shots.
The trailer then shifts theme around 30 seconds in, the music changes from choir to upbeat happier music, this is triggered by a pause in the non diagetic music and a diagetic doorbell sound. The text between scenes goes from being white text on a black background to red writing on a white background (a staple of comedy presentation) and the trailer starts to show clearer scene clips with dialogue showing some of the scenes, jokes and obvious comparisons to the Twilight movies. Text Such as 'Bites the big one', 'Bites' is an obvious comparison to the theme of vampires in Twilight and 'Big one' refers to the pop culture position of the movie it is spoofing.
