Real Vampires...Forget the camp vampires of Fright Night or Interview With The Vampire and the political vampires of Blade and Underworld, these bad boys and gals are the real deal. Ghastly in appearance, totally immoral and cold killers they are a cross between mutant humans and...something else from your worst nightmare.
br /
br /Their prey are the townsfolk of Barrow, Alaska as the town endures the endless night of northern mid-winter. Josh Hartnett as the local sheriff leads a band of survivors from the initial attack on the town. They dwindle one by one as they get picked off or, as they discover the nature of their antagonists in battle against the enemy.
br /
br /Very little is left to the imagination in this all out gore-fest. (Not for the squeamish).
br /
br /The climax has a rather unexpected twist, with Josh Hartnett taking his own walk of honour.
br /
br /The Blu-Ray transfer is superb, crystal clear picture and while sound is only Dolby Digital the screams of the dying accompanied by the eerie score work the speakers well.
br /
br /Recommended.

Passes the timeTo be honest, I found this film rather dull. The characters are completely one-dimensional and the story is pretty uninteresting and heavily reminiscent of Night of the Living Dead, Assault on Precinct 13, Dawn of the Dead, etc.. In fact, I'm only giving it 3 points because I love vampires and vampire movies so much. The problem with disposable characters is that you just don't care whether or not they live or die, thus there's no tension when they go an do something really moronic that puts them in imminent danger (there's a fair bit of that in this film). I didn't like the ending much: it seemed a bit of a cop-out, but I won't spoil it for you.
br /
br /I like to end a review on a positive note if possible, and this film has some really good camerwork, some nice gory special effects and the first 30 minutes of the movie builds the tension really well.

3.5 stars. OK film, good Blu RayThis film has an interesting plot and quite decently freakish vampires. However it is let down by having seemingly suicidal 'survivors' and by not having any outstanding action set pieces.
br /
br /The leader of the vampires is done very well. With a chilling soulless menace but also with a sort of injured dignity that humans should have dared to force them into the shadows.
br /
br /The rest of the vampires are pretty freakish and quite effective at gving you the chills.
br /
br /The human survivors are a pretty good depiction of a random bunch of people, but frankly half of them seem to have a deathwish, doing the most idiotic things that you really don't care if they do die.
br /
br /The action scenes throughout are either completely cliched or just a bit unimpressive. There was only one bit I really started grinning, you'll know it when you see it, it involved a chainsaw on a JCB.
br /
br /Overall, the film is alright, the acting is ok, the lead actors are pretty good to be fair. It could have been a bit more exciting than it was though. Not much really happened in it.
br /
br /As for the blu-ray. Very good. The HD picture was superb, and certain scenes really are impressive. One scene of a guy holding an axe standing in a snow filled playground, with the headless body of a vampire stuck upright in the chains of a swing, blood spattered around the corpse, was pretty amazing and is stuck in my mind.
br /
br /The sound also excellent. 5.1 or HD-DTS. The HD-DTS was very good and noticeably better than the 5.1, but be aware the film is generally quite quiet, being more of a suspense film rather than action.
