Jun 11 200730 Days of Night Teaser Trailer

30 Days of Night, based on the popular graphic novel, tells the story of a group led by Josh Hartnett trying to fight off a horde of vampires. The catch? They're above the Arctic Circle, so it's night for 30 days! Without the burden of daylight, it's a virtual vampire spring break--a full month of non-stop binge drinking [of blood].

This trailer reminds me of a disturbing trend in the modern vampire: too many are willing to run around mad for blood, openly showing they're mutant vampires. What ever happened to your gentlemanly, Dracula-style vampire? It's like the new vampire is a rapist, while Dracula was more of a date-rapist. Both are going to attack you in an unwanted way that will leave you violated, but at least with Dracula you get the seduction. Whether being turned into a vampire or raped, I expect dinner first.

Does Taco Bell count?

Just wait until my screenplay hits broadway, I'm calling it Count Phallucula; it stars a sexually repressed vampire who drains the blood of his victims through his penis, hilarity ensues as he commits unspeakable acts of sodomy upon unsuspecting townsfolk during musical monologues.

Think Mork and Mindy, only instead of Robin Williams sitting upside down and drinking water through his finger, we have a mutate-vampire drinking blood through his baby-maker. Pretty much the same thing.

Whoa whoa whoa........

If my vampire lore is correct, I believe that vampires cannot enter someone's house without their permission......

......

Ha, they snuck some Muse into that trailer........

The Youtube link is down, but you can still watch the trailer on Rotten Tomatoes.
