If you're into vampires (and who isn't these days), Lionsgate is releasing their take on bloodsuckers that doesn't involve a love triangle between a vampire, a human, and a werewolf on Friday (Jan. 8th).
Daybreakers is an original twist to the genre that surrounds a plague infecting and turning almost the entire human population into vampires 9 years from now. The surviving humans have been hunted and farmed for their blood but eventually become scarce threatening the on-going existence of both vampires and humans alike.
A vampire researcher who doesn't believe in human blood consumption named, Edward Dalton (Ethan Hawke) is in a race against time to perfect a human blood alternative that will save both humans and vampires from extinction. But Dalton's work runs into a dead-end when his experiments prove inadequate. That is until he runs into Audrey, a human survivor who has the answer to the breakthrough he needs to complete his research.
But the vampires are growing impatient and the fate of the earth's population is in danger should the last remaining humans are found.
The film isn't padded by miscalculated production budget, over-marketing, or 3D technology. Instead, it relies upon good story-telling, action, suspense, and characters to drive the movie.
It certainly looks promising.
Here is the second trailer:
