Wow! I really enjoyed this film. Best vampire movie I've ever seen

Rating: 9/10 (28 October 2007)

Except for may-be Dracula (1932) this is the best vampire film I've seen.Too long now have vampires been portrayed as sensual beautiful creatures instead of the throat-ripping beasts they deserve to be wrote as. These baddies in this film 30 Days of Night are the scariest vampires since Nosferatu & Kurt Barlow from Salem's lot (1979 CBS version,not the lame ass Sci-Fi network Rob Lowe remake). These were extremely terrifying in their displays of viscousness &complete disregard of mercy as they brutalized this small town of 150 =. One of my all time fav camera shots came from this film as the cameras has an angle shooting down from the sky as if you're in the air & looking down you see the town trying to defend itself but to no avail as the blood starts coating the snow white ground & you see it's everywhere. Very disturbing & haunting but AWESOME! Ididn't really like the lead casting of Josh Hartnett as the Sheriff character but he did okay.I also liked the infected are turned part of the storyline as it was reminiscent of azombie film this way. Also loved the mouth full of razor sharp teeth. They definitely killed any interest one might have in a fantasy sorta way about one wanting to turn into a vampire. And great gore.This is the goriest vampire movie ever made &has awesome make-up work. Loved the bleakness of the film. Very cool.***** out of *****
