A suspense-filled, thrilling movie!

Rating: 10/10 (4 August 2008)

I absolutely loved 30 Days of Night! It was the best film I have seen in a while, and it scared me right down to my boots! But this film was also very thrilling, action-packed and suspense-filled, with a massive showdown between the Chief of Police and the Head Vampire in the final sequence of the movie. An emotional and tear-jerking ending, but the rest of the movie was packed jam with action, suspense, terror and ruthless violence! The best vampire film of the year! I am just so full of compliments for this film. Josh Hartnett was great as the Chief of Police, and as the leader of a small band of survivors, who have to survive 30 Days of Night whilst their village comes under attack from a bunch of ruthless, flesh-eating vampires. The vampires were extremely terrifying, I thought! The most gut-wrenching, terrifying moment in the film, is where you see a small girl of no more than six years of age (who has obviously been transformed into a vampire) munching away on a human body. When she raises her head, her mouth is covered in blood, and she is as pale as a sheet. Her scream is truly blood-curdling, and she is terrifying! I really, really enjoyed this film. I loved the way that they had to survive thirty days, and that some days they would succeed in saving lost survivors, but other days some of them would die. A truly gripping, edge-of-the-seat film! The best horror movie I've seen! As per usual with horror films, the violence is quite horrific and they don't hold back on the decapitations, so if you're not sure on that sort of thing, then I would advise you not to watch the film. Some moderate drug and sex references, but it's not too bad. The film mostly focuses on the vampires and the small band of survivors.
Altogether, a great film, brilliantly acted and brilliantly directed! I REALLY enjoyed watching it. Perfect stuff.
