Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter 2012 ★½

Watched Jun 25, 2012

So before Abraham Lincoln was President of the United States he was out killing vampires. He pisses off the head vamp (Rufus Sewell) who comes after his family, leading to a showdown at Gettysburg. A nice idea maybe, but the resultant film is a crushing bore, all style over substance. Honestly, there's so many speeded up/ slo-mo action scenes I feared the projection was buggered. It's like watching a cross between Spartacus and True Blood on telly, and not in a good way. Benjamin Walker actually gives it a good go as Abe, but everyone else should be ashamed of themselves.
