Just watched this with some friends. I really enjoyed the large part of it, but I love the concept behind it.

So for those that don't know, here's the deal: In 2009, some freak plague hits the Earth and turns a large portion of the population into vampires (the real kind that burst into flames in the sun, not them damn twilights) who subsequently turn humans or begin to harvest them like animals for their blood. The human population is dangerously low, therefore the vampires don't have enough blood to last long and they're trying to come up with a blood surrogate. Vampires who don't get enough human blood rapidly change into "subsiders," which are bat-like critters who are on the hunt for blood. Anywho, the main characters are looking for blood replacement and stumble on a cure. Blah blah blah people don't want to have the cure, etc. etc. Action, action killing, blood, death, gore, explosions, yay!

Yeah, that movie looked really good. I like how they were taking a different side to the vampire story. Vampires ruling the earth, and they're the ones you're rooting for in the film. Or at least that's what I got out of the previews.

You're not so much rooting for the vampires. It's just a really different from the way other movies present a vampire situation.

A pretty ambitious movie that's occasionally capable of fulfilling those ambitions. When it doesn't, the attempt is still noteworthy and the results are at least entertaining

I liked the movie, but I would have liked it more if they took advantage of their storyline. Basic horrors with a good plot just kind of make me mad that they didn't do more with it.

Its interesting, you should. Its a little excessive on the gore, but its horror after all. And the vampires do a lot more than sparkle in the sunlight, which is nice.

I liked it, but I don't think it was that great. ha, William Dafoe's natural accent does not mix well with a redneck accent at all.

im still creeped out from Dafoe's crossdressing gay cop role in Boondock Saints but this movie was pretty sick and pretty much anything with Ethan Hawke is.
