Why it’s HorroRated
30 Days of Night commits to its premise with a directness the genre often loses. These vampires are predators without poetry, organized and feral, and the film treats thirty days of darkness as the dire situation it is. Josh Hartnett anchors the survival narrative well and the creature design is among the better vampire work of the decade.
Synopsis
Barrow's month-long winter darkness attracts vampires with a tactical approach to the isolated town. Josh Hartnett leads the dwindling survivors through a film that uses its setting as a genuine formal element rather than just background. These vampires are feral and organized rather than seductive, which gives the threat a texture the subgenre rarely attempts.
