Daybreakers (2009)
written & directed by
Michael Spierig & Peter Spierig
I guess just because i love vampire movies,
doesn't mean i'm going to like all vampire movies.
And when the Spierig guys try to make this vampy city life style film
i urm... rejected it.
I did sit through the whole thing,
but the end of the film was just cluttered in clichés.
And so many loose ends too, just tied up without much thought.
The "redeeming sacrifices" need to stop in film making as far
as im concerned.
You know, the one wherethe 'bad guy' has a change of heart,
and lets himself die in order to save the good guys.
Its a pointless death,
and i think Hollywood has abused this so much
- i just no longer care.
Tell you what,
here are some positive notes
to this tragic vampire movie,
Sam Neil is once again a cool villain.
Ah yes, the degenerate vampires
- could have done with a lot more of these.
The idea, humans are going extinct
and the world is running out of blood for the vamps
- very very cool.
But damn, PLEASE write a better story for it.
And the bad note,
Ethan Hawke didn't get a steak through the chest.
Damn.
Another bad note, no sexy neck biting.
C'mon - its a vamp movie
and its not about ugly bat like vamps.
Get some skin in.
As far as vampire movies go,
better than some but still a bad film.
