113 Minutes of Despair.

Rating: 5/10 (6 October 2008)

I envy the victims in this film, at least they went easy. Yeah, it's another vampire movie with the same old standards that you have been watching for the better part of a century. Actually there are a few twists, thrown in from zombie movies. I command you to watch Nosferatu, Dracula, Martin, and Near Dark. Then try to call this great. I'd rather watch the credits of any those films. And, the first person to mention The Lost Boys loses an eye. As for TDoN, Josh Hartnett and company hide in the dark for a long time, some die, and it ends. Mercifully. Having said that, I have little doubt that the comic is, if fact, awesome. There is an appearance by the ever popular person who gets someone killed, played by an old man with Alzheimer's, Ben Foster as The Lonely One confederate, and...the pudgy guy from The Constant Gardener as the leader? This belongs in a triple feature with The League of Extraordinary Gentleman and something like Steel or that Captain America movie.
