30 Days Of Night (2007)

[bedorca]

Fairly entertaining slice of vamp hokum.

Production standards, acting and camera work too good for my usual exploitation standards

[The Reaper Man@Cult Labs]

Thought this was REALLY atmospheric Beds,a decent modern horror for a change.....

Agreed. It was quite tense in some parts. Great storyline, fantastic atmosphere, quality gore. Just lack the obligatory GBS that occurs in most flicks of that type.

I loved the way that it sorted of bucked the movie trend and things happened instantly instead of messing around (especially when folk were on the run)

[Short Night Of Glass LOLs]

One of the best decpitations I have ever seen!

This one took me by surprise as I hadn't really expected much upfront despite liking the trailer in the theatre.
I'd probably assumed wrongly that Sam Raimi would only produce PG-13 rated horror fare for his "Ghost House" company- and I was totally unfamiliar with the comic book on which this is based on.
Somehow very Carpenteresque in a way the elderly Master himself doesn't seem to be able to produce these days any more.
Watched this only once so far....but as the days are getting darker again (at least here, far up north) I might get tempted to revisit this quite soon....

At last! A really good modern vampire flick.Some of the recent vamp output has been fair(vampire sisters) to unwatchable(the last sect,a candle in the dark.)
Great locations,lots of grue,really nasty looking vamps and a fast paced story.Yowza!

Then again,im a sucker(no pun intended.) for near dark,but that was made 20 odd year ago.
Still have the ultra low budget darkness residing in my wish list,great splattery lb vampire flick,and its out in a 2 disc edition.
Anyone recommend any recent vamp flicks of interest?
