The Twilight Saga Movies

Teenage hormones meet vampires and were-wolves. No wonder this fantasy series is a hit not just in book form, but also in the movies.

Twilight: the first movie (2008)

We meet Bella Swan and Edward Cullen. Bella Swan is a teenage girl who's just moved out to her dads in a small town in the country. She falls for the elusive Edward, however, he keeps her off. We learn that he's a vampire and is scared to hurt her. A host of vampires hunt for Bella and the friendly vampires living in her town try to protect her.

New Moon: the second Twilight Saga movie (2009)

Edward believes Bella dead. Bella falls into a deep depression. She develops a friendship with Jacob Black, a werewolf living nearby. Of course she doesn't know he's a werewolf at first - he doesn't either. We follow the two as we learn more about the werewolves and their purpose. Jacob falls in love with Bella, but she's still in love with Edward.

Eclipse: the third Twilight Saga movie (2010)

Edward and Bella are together. They want to marry, but the complications of marrying a vampire aren't small. Bella wants to be a vampire, really, but Edward doesn't want her to give up her humanity. And what would happen if she got pregnant? Bella is torn.

The werewolves and vampires draw a truce, in order to be able to protect Bella.

Breaking Dawn: the final Twilight Saga movies (2011/2012)

This movie isn't out yet. The book is though, so we know what will happen. The themes in this movie are the marriage and honeymoon of Edward and Bella, her pregnancy with a half-vampire child... Plot twists and turns involving the magic of both werewolves and vampires abound in this book - and it will be turned into two movies to cover it all.
