I'm not a huge fan of vampire movies (the Bela Lugosi and Coppola films are an exception--I like those a fair bit) but I was intrigued by the premise of Daybreakers. The majority of the world's human population is infected by a virus that makes them vampires and global society has adapted to this reality (in some interesting ways). The problem is the "food supply" is running very low and no effective alternative yet exists. I'll leave it at that and only say that it's worth a viewing (warning: while not the most blood-spattered film I've seen, it is a vampire movie, so those with low tolerance for blood should think twice). Good cast with Ethan Hawke, Willem Dafoe and Sam Neill.
:35: out of :5:
I would have rated it four stars if the ending had been a bit less predictable. Still worth watching for the first 2/3 especially.
