title: 30 Days of Night
released: 19 October 2007
genre: horror
rated: 4 out of 5
plot: After an Alaskan town is plunged into darkness for a month, it is attacked by a bloodthirsty gang of vampires.
In 30 Days of Night , the town of Barrow, Alaska is getting prepared for their annual period during winter when the sun doesn't come up for 30 days. Some of the townspeople head out of town until this period is over.
The sheriff, played by Josh Hartnett, stays behind among others, like his estranged wife. Soon enough vampires begin attacking the town. They slaughter most of the town, the few that are left surviving stay together and hide out, moving from place to place, hoping to wait out the 30 days until the sun finally rises.
I always enjoy a good scary movie, and this one was good. The vampires were creepy and so was the setting. My one problem with this movie was the ending. They royally messed it up. It was like they wanted to add a romantic ending where it didn't belong. And the ending was highly unlikely. If you've seen this film, I'm talking about the two people who 'romantically' watched the sun rise together.
Although I didn't like the ending, all in all, this was a good vampire film.
