30 Jours de nuit

Good movie. Scary, original and well made.

Great acting with Hartnett, Houston and Foster being creepy/heroic.

Well written and executed.

More like a 7.5 but what the heck it ain't a 6.6 like it's showing.

Pretty good movie with great vampire concept and fantastic premise and setting. Characters do make you care, atmosphere is strong, and in places it's tense and scary. Would have benefitted from extending the first 'what's going on?' section of the film, which was excellent and resolves a little too quickly. Then reduce the length of the second half which is a bit disjointed, and you don't always know why the characters are doing what they decide to do. Gets a bit random, to be honest. Still enjoyable though.

It's a reasonably original take that visually strip mines the comics it was born from. If you can ignore the very silly denouement and the odd way they have of showing the flow of time then this is a solid tense action horror.

Well acted, well directed, great cast and a very good story.

Something different to most vampire movies. Mostly very good effects and a decent amount of pretty serious gore.

Not perfect by any means but highly enjoyable in my opinion and has some great music too.

Definitely worth a watch for any vampire fans.

Recommended.

These vampires are more like wild savages than the charming and seductive Dracula or the stylish and clever Lestat. Instead we get rampant bloodshed across the Alaskan winter landscape with our protagonists trapped in a hopeless situation, turning it into a hopeful one as they just barely survive, being hunted by the seemingly-invincible vampire menace, until the tables gradually turn.
