Vampires Suck Does Well On Opening Day In U.S.

Vampires Suck, a movie spoof of the Twilight franchise, has become a big hit at the U.S. box office - debuting at the top of the midweek box office list, ahead of The Expendables and Julia Roberts' Eat Pray Love.
 
The movie, which features Jenn Proske and Matt Lanter as Becca Crane and Edward Sullen, has shot to the top of the film charts, scoring more than $4 million (£2.6 million) from first-day receipts on Wednesday (18Aug10).
 
The film will compete with new releases Lottery Ticket, The Switch, Piranha 3D and the Nanny McPhee sequel, which all launch on Friday (20Aug10).
 
However, early indications suggest Stallone's The Expendables will stay at the top of the box office charts for a second week.

The expendables is the first movie for Stallone since he starred and directed Rambo back in 2008 and the movie took $34.8 million in it's opening weekend America.
