Daybreakers

13th January 2010

The year is 2019 and most of the world have become vampire and humans are now being farmed for their blood. As the number of humans reduces the blood supply is running low. As time is running out for the scientists looking for a blood substitute to stop starvation of the vampire population Edward Daulton (Ethan Hawke), one of the ‘vampire’ scientist meets up with a group of surviving humans who are in hiding but have an idea of how to ‘cure’ the vampires.

I’m not a big vampire film fan but the trailers looked pretty good for this one so I thought I’d make the effort to see it and I’m glad I did.

The story is pretty solid and the cast are pretty all put in pretty good performance, I could be picky and say there are a couple of over bloody scenes which are unnecessary and actually make the scenes look more fake, however they don’t distract from the overall look of the movie.

It’s not going to change the face of cinema so don’t expect anything deep and meaningful from this one, but it’s a good bit of fun and worth checking out.
