Everything you could want from a vampire flick

Rating: 7/10 (19 August 2017)

'30 Days of Night' is an effective and surprisingly well-made vampire movie. It has everything you would want and expect from a movie like this - excessive gore, frightening jump scares, and a highly suspenseful plot. It all comes together really well and the combination of a tense plot and the bloody violence that comes with vampire flicks makes for great couple of hours of entertainment.
Unlike a lot of, or maybe even most movies in this genre, '30 Days of Night' never feels cheap. Everything from the acting to the appearance of the vampires was as good as I can remember seeing in this genre. The storyline is engaging and well constructed for the most part, with the only noticeable flaw coming at the end when it start to get a bit messy. Ultimately though, '30 Days of Night' is great fun to watch.
