What We Do In The Shadows (2014) is a New Zealand mockumentary film that follows the lives of

 vampires living in New Zealand. It is shot as if it were a reality T.V. show, although it is obviously not real because of the slapstick comedy and the fact that vampires don't exist. However, it is made to seem as if it is real while also seems to mock reality TV in how it portrays the characters and how 
they actors "act" in front of the camera.
