Brett Favre 0 Report post Posted October 20, 2007 Did anyone see this yet? Good or bad, without spoilers? I'm going to watch it on Sunday. The theatres are full of shit. You can't buy more than one ticket for a rated R movie unless you're 21. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dubq 0 Report post Posted October 20, 2007 Loved it. There were a few wierd looking green/blue screen effects that took away from a few scenes, but otherwise it was a very good flick, IMO. Very close to the graphic novel's storyline as well. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gary Floyd 0 Report post Posted October 20, 2007 Saw it last night. I'm with dubq, in that I also loved it. Finally, a movie where vampires aren't whiney, miserable fucks. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cabbageboy 0 Report post Posted October 20, 2007 What are all these movies with whiny vampires? I don't recall Lugosi whining much at all in the original Dracula. Dracula's daughter though....yeah she kinda whined to that shrink. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dracula's daughter though....yeah she kinda whined to that shrink. I'm pretty much thinking of the books of Anne Rice, the adaptations of said books, and the fdact that there hasn't been a movie where a vampire is scary in a long time.

dubq 0 Report post Posted October 21, 2007 Plus aside from the uberfag vampires of the Anne Rice novels/movies, the vampires in Blade = bland. The vampires in Underworld = even more bland. Let's not get into the ilk of Dracula 2000, etc. The vampires in this movie were pure killing machines. No wasting time with games, comedy, self-loathing or sex, just pure carnage. Loved it!

bobobrazil1984 0 Report post Posted October 21, 2007 It was pretty good. Very gory. I also liked that the vampires were just brutal. They looked creepy too. They did something subtle there, look human-ish but somehow just 'off'. The most badass part was that high up birds eye shot scrolling across the town while you just see vampire figures killing people left and right, people running away screaming, etc. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
randomguy 0 Report post Posted October 21, 2007 Yeah that scene was the highlight of the movie, kind of reminiscent of the first few minutes of the Day of the Dead remake. I thought it was pretty good overall and was happy to see a horror movie that wasn't a remake, slasher flick, torture porn or sequel. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Downhome 0 Report post Posted October 21, 2007 I saw this after GBG earlier tonight. I don't know anything about the source material, but I really enjoyed the film for what it was. I loved the presentation of the vampires, like some of you guys have already mentioned. I also really enjoyed the overall look of the film, and especially the overhead shot, also mentioned before. My only minor complaint is that there were times when the film really felt rushed, like time was going by in the movie world far too fast. I know that it had to cover an entire month, but still. It's not a major complaint, but it's something I guess. Also, if I have to mention anything else, I guess I would have liked a bit more backstory on everyone - both the people and the vampires. Again though, that's not a major complaint for a flick like this. I highly recommend it for sure. If you are a fan of vampires, I'm not sure how you can't find something to like about it.

The Buzz 0 Report post Posted October 21, 2007 While I still favor John Carpenter's Vampires as my all-time favorite vampire movie, and yes I know that that movie is one that most either love or hate. I think 30 days of night was a good balls to the wall, take no prisoners vampire flick. The graphic novel was good source material, and the movie did a good job bringing it to life.

dubq 0 Report post Posted October 21, 2007 Yeah that scene was the highlight of the movie, kind of reminiscent of the first few minutes of the Dawn of the Dead remake. I thought it was pretty good overall and was happy to see a horror movie that wasn't a remake, slasher flick, torture porn or sequel. I was thinking the exact same thing when I saw that scene. I got flashes of Sarah Polly's character driving down the highway where that other car gets t-boned into a gas station and - BOOM! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
randomguy 0 Report post Posted October 22, 2007 Yeah I meant Dawn of the Dead, good catch. A long sustained action shot is not something you see in movies much these days. Also I like John Carpenter's Vampires, but I'm a sucker for John Carpenter. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest tonyjaymzretro Report post Posted October 22, 2007 I liked it. It was creepy, very creepy. I like how the vampires were terrifying...and Ben Foster as the stranger was fantastic. I'd say about 7/7.5 out of 10 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

DrVenkman PhD 0 Report post Posted October 24, 2007 Approximately one of the nine people I saw this with last night liked it (they didn't hate it, they just called it "ok"), and I'm pretty sure the one just liked it because it starred Josh Hartnett, her reason for wanting to go. I liked it though, especially the above mentioned bird's eye view scene. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Youth N Asia 0 Report post Posted October 24, 2007 Liked it a lot. The overhead shot of the town being overrun by vamps with blood and bullets flying everywhere was just great. Despite the cheesy lines, I liked the head vamp. Had an oldschool Drac look to him Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

luke-o 0 Report post Posted November 5, 2007 Pretty decent movie, and I'm on the train of thought that it's about time we had a film where the vampires weren't whinny bitches. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
I like Forums 0 Report post Posted November 10, 2007 I liked the movie but I kind of found it hard to believe how freely it seemed that the group of survivors could move from building to building. They couldn't even sneeze when in the attic but were chopping up vamps in other scenes with no other vampires getting suspicious. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LaParkaMarka 0 Report post Posted November 11, 2007 Yeah, it was weird. Also, the vamps really should have found them...they could have just gone house to house and eventually find them, they had a good two weeks after the first attack to find Hartnett's crew. BUt little nagging things like that aside, it was a solid movie. I enjoyed the look of the vamps, and the overall creepy nature of the film. No lame jokes distracting from the atmosphere. One question: who was that kid that they saved near the end? I don't recall the child anywhere else in the film. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest False Alarm! Report post Posted November 12, 2007 I thought the movie was fucking awesome. Especially loved how intense, and how the film had such a great atmosphere, and yep seriously violent (over here it’s only a 15). It’s amazing how much you find your self giving a shit about the characters. Danny Houston put out a great performance as the lead vampire. Hartnett impressed too, this is probably his best role since The Black Dahlia(and even then that was only for his narration. Great voice for it) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
