Movie Trailer: Friedberg/Seltzer Twilight Spoof Vampires Suck, Entire Movie Leaked Online?

In February, I reported that Aaron Seltzer and Jason Friedberg, the screenwriting/directing team credited with ruining the spoof movie genre (Disaster Movie, Meet the Spartans, Epic Movie, Scary Movie series, Date Movie) were filming a new movie in Shreveport, LA under the working title "LA Art Movie". We were the first to reveal at the time that the movie was not a spoof on the indie film genre (a la Chris Gore's 2005 movie My Big Fat Independent Movie) but actually something spoofing Twilight and the recent Vampire trend. 20th Century Fox has finally released a trailer for Vampires Suck, which is set to hit theaters on August 18th 2010.

Also, /Film reader Garn B informs me that the entire movie has already leaked onto the bit torrent websites. While I can't verify this claim (I'm not going to illegally download a movie to find out), I have seen references to the film on multiple Torrent sites along with screencaptures which seem to prove its existence. You would think 20th Century Fox would have learned with X-Men Origins: Wolverine to take the extra security precautions to prevent a workprint leak online, but guess not. As always, we advise anyone reading this not to illegally download the movie (and not just because it looks horrible, and it isn't likely worth watching — even for free).

You can watch the trailer legally, and for free, embedded after the jump.  I'm still not quite sure why a vampire spoof is filled with jokes about Tim Burton's Alice in Wonderland, the television show the Jersey Shore, and Lady Gaga. But why question the motives or logic behind Seltzer and Friedberg now?
