I’ve been reading the 30 Days of Night comics from the very beginning. Steve Niles and Ben Templesmith’s original mini-series is one of my favorite works of the decade and, while none of the follow-up series have quite matched that original brilliance it’s been a great run of horror comics. Wonderfully scary.
With that in mind, it should be noted that my opinion of 30 Days of Night
That’s just the way it’s going to be. I’m cool with that. Hopefully you are too.
Anyway, for what it’s worth, I enjoyed this adaptation. It’s not great cinema, but it’s got some fun moments and that was enough for me.
As a note, it’s probably too gruesome for you. While there are some vampire movies made for broader audiences, this one is most definitely not. There’s no pretty-boy, heartthrob sexy vampires in this movie. Far from it. Instead, there’s tons of blood, lots of feeding and the nastiest set of teeth you’ll ever see- just like Templesmith designed.
