In the last years vampires became a "hot" topic in cinema and TV. Starting with the twilight craze and continuing with things like true blood etc. What is it that excites people about this particular legend, we have many others like zombies, aliens, bigfoot, trolls and l can go on and on. And yeah I know every one of the "things" on my list got some coverage, especially zombies, but vampires attract every type not only the thrill and bloodthirsty zombie lovers. I believe this vampire phase will eventually blow over but it originally exists because of a simple fact: the similarity between human beings and vampires. They are just the bad side of humanity, and through them you can and are allowed to experience all what is taboo in western culture, meaning: lust, desire and passion for the bad. We can taste the bad without feeling bad for it.
(Of course this is in short for the why; if someone wants we can elaborate on this later)
I heard a lot about this movie before they published the trailer, it was interesting before and now it’s even more interesting. I always love when a story uses of historical facts and they build a movie around it. Abraham Lincoln, one of Americas favorite Presidents actually has a hidden agenda, hunting vampires. The trailer looks great, and I can't wait for this to come out. Enjoy!
The combination of old, slow motions, explosions, bloodshed and martial arts, look like they could all work together, I'm excited for this. Let the river of blood flow. Be prepared!
