Review: 30 Days of Night
Penguin February 1st, 2008
Rating: 1/4 stars
30 Days of Night is about a small Alaskan town who get invaded by vampires.
The best thing about this movie is the premise. 30 days of night? Vampires? Easy! It has the potential to be really scary and really cool, but ends up being boring and dull instead.
You would think a vampire movie would have tons of blood. But most of the killings happen off screen. Every once in awhile, you get a money shot, but they are far too few. Instead, we have a few survivors of the town just hiding the whole time, waiting for the sun to come up. Hiding isn’t very exciting to me.
Even the vampires end up looking kind of stupid. They just all meander around hissing and smiling and talking to each other in what I think is Russian. I appreciate that they didn’t make them sexy, a la Underworld, but I’d still rather see Kate Beckinsale in leathers.
