Abe Lincoln Brings Back Evil Vampire Genre
Posted by
Yes, we all love Edward and fam, but Abe Lincoln is hear to kick vampire butt!
Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter hits theaters June 22nd and it brings back the old adage, "Vampires are bad."
In the flick, vampires are just downright evil and Honest Abe has to take them out.
Benjamin Walker, who plays Abe, comments on the film:
It’s not a sermon in any way, but it is interesting to look at vampires as the all-encompassing, unspeakable, unknowable evil. This evil moves among us, and maybe lives next door. It’s an ideology that we don’t fully understand, but they live by it.
It’s told through the structure of Lincoln’s actual life. You not only see these huge fight scenes and great moments of drama, but you get sort of the greatest hits of Lincoln’s life, from the mysterious death of his mother through the Gettysburg address,
You get a portrait of this man, as well as a thriller.
Well put, Ben!
While it sounds hokey and cartoonish, the film promises to deliver on history as well as fun.
We can't wait for this movie to come out!!!
