A great concept poorly written and executed in this horror film about a group of vampires terrorizing a small town in Alaska. The film starts well but falls quickly flat and never recovers. It's based on a graphic novel but the script never tries to elevate it above its source material. A lot of stuff doesn't make sense, specially why the super stylish vampires who seem to have come from New York or big city would come to Alaska and for what reason. Danny Huston as the leader of the pack talks in tongues but his gibberish doesn't make any sense what so ever. Josh Hartnett and the cast can't save the film either which is a shame since the potential for a good horror flick is there. YRCinema's coverage of films on DVD.
