Daybreakers Movie Review

By:Sandwichjohn

Move over Edward Cullen there is a new Edward in town and his name is Edward Dalton. Played by Ethan Hawke, Edward is the main character of the latest vampire movie, Daybreakers. It is 2019 and a virus that emerged 10 years ago has turned most of the population into vampires. The vampires have been farming humans for their blood and the supply has run low. The search is on for a blood substitute and Edward is leading that search.

Edward is a conflicted vampire. You find out that he never wanted to become a vampire and avoids feeding on human blood. He has an accidental meeting a group of human survivors which leads to an important discovery. One of these humans, played by Willem Dafoe, has an interesting story to tell.

I enjoyed the movie. I am not a big fan of gore and it was gory in some parts but it fit with the storyline and wasn’t too extreme. It reminded me of I Am Legend in a way, both movies have a virus which turns humans into “monsters” that can only come out at night and the main characters are searching for a cure. (Both also have some cool cars). It wasn’t on the same level as I Am Legend but it was a decent movie. I was surprised that the theater was only a ¼ full on the Saturday night during its opening weekend. The ending left it open for a sequel but if it doesn’t pull in the money that won’t be happening.

I give it 7 sandwiches out of 10.
