Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter


Spoiler alert: ALVH spoils history, vampire films, and your day.  What is Lincoln’s superpower?  Why can’t vamps hurt each other?  Why infiltrate AND blow up the train? Why emphasize bad FX through slo-mo?  Why do the editing, score, acting, and dialogue all suck worse than the most thirsty confederate undead?

Dark City

Rufus is confused by lack of daylight so naturally he turns to Jack Bauer to count the hours. Proyas applies Crow sensibility to Chinatown sci-fi and populates his crazy Brazillian city with Riff Raff, Hurt, and a dreamy Connelly. Moody, atmospheric and clever, and outside the Matrix by one year.
