Surprisingly good, but not a movie that would be considered a classic. However this does stand above a lot of the more mediocre Vampire movies that have been made.It almost entirely relies on atmosphere, the coldness of the nomadic vampires is only matched by the Alaskan wilderness. The story works quite well, especially as there is never really any back story to tell where the vampires actually come from. The ending is quite well done and because it isn't really a happy ending I count it as a plus. Happy endings seem to be the go and having one that is not so happy is a welcome change. The movie is let down by some of the acting, which, if better might have made this a classic.Very much worth a watch if you like Vampire movies.

'30 Days of Night' is an effective and surprisingly well-made vampire movie. It has everything you would want and expect from a movie like this - excessive gore, frightening jump scares, and a highly suspenseful plot. It's a combination that makes for great couple of hours of entertainment.Unlike a lot of, or maybe even most movies in this genre, '30 Days of Night' never feels cheap. Everything from the acting to the appearance of the vampires was as good as I can remember seeing in this genre. I could raise a few question marks about the direction of the plot, especially towards the end where it gets a bit messy. Ultimately though, '30 Days of Night' is great fun to watch.

30 Days of Night (2007) is a horror thriller released on 19 October 2007, directed by David Slade, lifted from the same comic book released in 2002, setting in Alaska, Alaska hit by a very long winter, the sun will appear 30 days later, but the plague will hit the small town of Barrow, Sheriff Eben Oleson knows it immediately tells the townspeople to hide and lock their door, it turns out a swarm of bloodthirsty Vampire that will make the citizens of the city their meal, The townspeople In a moment of death slaughtered by vampire vampires. The gripping atmosphere, the terror, enveloped the city and divided the dead bodies. 30 Days of Night is creepy, brutal, sadistic, scary, dark, and tense. The best vampire movie I've ever seen

A very satisfying film with a good location.I like sheriff films exploring one man's responsibility for a community. Such films do show us something of a close-knit community. There is a positive attitude to people even in a horror film.I usually prefer the slow build up in the first half of a film like 30 Days. I think film delivers in both halves.The antagonists here are from the top drawer. Not people you want to meet in a dark alley even if you're armed with a pointed stick.The film has a neat ending. It's of a kind you sometimes come across. The film Pumpkinhead comes to mine. Then there's the excellent Dust Devil.There's a prequel and a sequel but they don't come close to this modern day myth.
