| Harvard Lampoon takes a bite out of Twilight |
Vampires Suck is coming to theaters soon. This Wednesday to be exact. But parody comes in more forms than just film. At your local Borders, Barnes and Noble, or at Amazon.com, you can pick up a copy of Nightlight, a novel that spoofs The Twilight Saga.
Written by the Harvard Lampoon crew, the story is all too familiar: Our heroine, Belle Goose, feels that outsider classmate, Edwart is a vampire. There's no real evidence to support her theory other than the fact that she wants him to be. In reality, Edwart seems to be just a High School boy who loves video games too much. There are vampires in this novel though too, and clever stabs at Twilight author Stephenie Meyers' writing style.
Nightlight is written for both the fan and non-fan of Twilight in mind and is a billion times more clever than recent parody films that have been released as of recently.
So pick this up if you want to skip Vampires Suck. Or go and watch Vampires Suck. If you hate it, pick this up.
I'll have to check that out!
