30 Days of Night
Scary. Scratch that, better make it really damn scary. This has such a cool premise and you really believe the local inhabitants of a northern Alaska community would have the wherewithal to put up a fight and see off the vampire hoard. The fractured relationship between the leads is explored in an interesting way without relying on huge amounts of exposition. The vampires just look so cool and are way frightening. There are lots of averting one’s eyes scenes and the tension keeps on ratcheting up until the end. The ending was unexpected and really got to me. So, yeah, I liked it.
