Starring: Jenn Proske, Matt Lanter, Diedrich Bader, Chris Riggi
Rating: PG-13
Score: 2.5/4
Don't think that I disliked this movie based on the scoring, it was actually very funny. At least, it was hilarious in the beginning and through the middle. After that it started fizzling out. However, I enjoyed it immensely and would recommend it.
The movie is a parody of both Twilight and New Moon and does a spot-on job of mocking some of the finer points of the stories. Edward and Bella’s chastity is a running joke in the spoof as is Jacob’s werewolf transformation. Every time we see Jacob he becomes more and more dog-like. The actress who played Bella, called Becca in the spoof, did a fantastic job. She had Kristen Stewart’s way of mumbling down perfect and fully represented the irritating teen angst that Bella stands for. Edward’s name in the movie is Edward Sullen and he also did a very good job playing the moody vampire with internal battles about Bella’s safety.
The most enjoyable part of the movie was the appearance of 'Team Edward' and 'Team Jacob' fan girls. As most people know the Twilight craze has spawned those enamored 'Twihards' who gladly fight over fictional characters.
While this movie is intended for those who couldn't stand Twilight it could also be enjoyable for those who do like it. Keeping in mind that the purpose of the movie is to make fun, I think that anyone could enjoy this.
The climax is actually anti-climatic when the 'Zolturis' and Edward come head to head at the prom, but the rest of the jokes are laughable. When I saw it the entire theater was always laughing at something, even the adults.
