30 Days of Night

Okay, I admit it - 30 Days of Night is not an Academy-Award winning film. The acting is sketchy at best, and the movie can seem long at points, but despite its faults, the movie actually managed to freshen up the vampire genre - which long ago wore out its welcome in my opinion.
Apart from my obsession and positively biased opinion toward Alaska (and especially toward Barrrow, where the film takes place), this film is actually quite enjoyable as long as you take it for what it is...a somewhat predictable horror flick with plenty of gore and action. Sometimes, less is more, and that's the case with 30 Days of Night. I can't wait until this comes out on DVD on February 26.
