The Strange Case of the Twilight Franchise

Twilight is a strange phenomenon, even by today's standards. So, I decided to go back and see what all the fuss was about. I had not seen these movies in a number of years, and it was an interesting experience.

Note: "Red Riding Hood" came out in 2011, not 2013. That's my bad.
