Sorry! But This One Sucked!

Rating: 2/10 (16 June 2009)

30 Days of Night has a great premise which is the town of barrow Alaska as the title proclaims has thirty days of darkness there is a great and eerie start to the picture, a miscast josh hart-nett who plays the sheriff! the magnificent Danny Huston as the lead vampire unfortunately Danny Huston has little to do but stand around his band of fellow bloodsucker's and have a vacant look upon his face, the special make up effects are terrificly done as are the matte paintings which litter the Alaskan scenery the production was filmed in new Zealand, So there you have it we have a very promising opening but unfortunately things go down hill from there this picture had so much going for it. it has references to john carpenter's the thing a much better film set in a similar environment
