Daybreakers
 
If glittery vampires such as those in The Twilight Saga: New Moon aren’t quite your thing then worry not, because the tougher, meaner variety are still doing the rounds also.

A new quad poster has been released for Michael Spierig and Peter Spierig’s DAYBREAKERS, starring Willem Dafoe, Ethan Hawke, Isabel Lucas and Sam Neil.

Gone are the lovey dovey vampire/werewolf/human love stories, the Wolf Pack and the Volturi – all replaced by good old fashioned blood, action and evilness (if that’s a word). Check out the poster below:

Fresh off the success of their inventive take on the zombie genre, Undead masterminds Michael and Peter Spierig direct Ethan Hawke in an ambitious tale of a futuristic Earth populated entirely by vampires, and the efforts made by the creatures to ensure that their food supply doesn’t run out as humankind is faced with extinction. The year is 2017, and a vampire plague has turned most of the planet’s human population into bloodsucking ghouls. As the population of mortals fast begins to dwindle, a resourceful team ofvampires sets out to capture and farm every remaining human while simultaneously researching a consumable blood substitute. Just when all hope seems lost, a secret is discovered that may provide the key to saving the human race.

US Release: 8th January 2010

Daybreakers isn't really bad, but a lot of things in the scenario have been seen too many times. I liked the visual stuff, the post-apocalyptic vampire society (which was really looking like an human one...) and some few gore scenes who made me realize that it was the same guys from Undead who did that one too.

It's nothing special. Decent, but there isn't much substance. And if you want a lot of action, it isn't there either...

i skipped this to see the Imaginarium of Dr. Parnassus (which was easily one of the worst films i have ever seen - huge disappointment to me - a big Gilliam fan)

I feel exactly the same way. Not really sure why everyone was making such a big deal of Defoe... Thought he was really miscast in that role...

Yeah i agree too. This film missed for me, and part of it was defoe. It was worth one viewing, but never again.
