Review of Daybreakers (2010) by Darren C — 20 May 2012
Interesting take on vampirism - if the vampire is actually so superior to the human in strength, speed, immortality, and other generic powers, won't they, as an apex predator, eventually dominate the planet? Daybreakers takes the concept of a disturbed balance of nature and shows us a world where the worst has happened, and what is looks like.
Other than this concept, the movie's pretty standard-entertaining; lots of blood and gore, a slightly irritating scream-factor bat, plenty of cold blue fluorescent lighting, and some really fascinating looks at vampires now that that're people like us.
An excellent performace from Sam Neill and Willem Dafoe, ok from Ethan Hawke who's just doing his standard role all over again.
