There is no shortage of on screen vampires these days. However 'Daybreakers' scores with a unique twist in what is becoming an overworked genre: What if the undead are the majority? In 2019, due to a plague, most of the world's population have become vampires and the few humans left are hunted down and farmed for blood. This topsy-turvy "new normal" is sharply and amusingly depicted as being eerily similar to current living with the important difference that the populace go about their business at night and enjoy shots of blood in their coffee. Aging, famine, and disease have been eradicated, however sunlight is lethal. There is also still a class system, with destitute vampires who cannot afford a regular fix of blood turning into violent, deformed creatures called "subsiders". But there is a problem. The vampires' insatiable appetite for blood has driven the residual human population to the point of extinction and left the blood supply almost exhausted. Enter Edward Dalton (Ethan Hawke), a scientist working for a massive pharmaceutical conglomerate headed by the evil Charles Bromley (Sam Neill). His job is to find a blood substitute to ward off mass starvation. Dalton secretly sympathizes with the remaining humans and hopes that his work will result in their persecution being halted. After connecting with some human survivors, he realizes that there may be an even more radical solution to the problem. However, not every solution is profitable.. From beginning to end this film is big, gory fun. There are some interesting and agreeable plot twists and the film's more metaphorical aspects (which are not exactly subtle to begin with) are upfront but not preachy. The special effects and action scenes are top-notch also, particularly a gruesome set-piece near the film's climax. The Spierig brothers also manage to insert some big scary jolts at regular intervals. All the cast are solid but special mention should go to Sam Neill who does not chew scenery as the main villain of the piece but definitely nibbles here and there. Willem Dafoe is good too, as always. "Daybreakers" also passes a key horror movie test: when you leave the theater, the outside world does not look quite as reassuring as it normally does. Well worth seeing.

Ten years after a plague has turned most of the human race in to vampires hematologist Edward Dalton works for a corporate company that sells human blood . The vampire race are facing a problem in that the humans that the vampires rely upon are becoming more scarce and if the hematologists don't find a blood substitute quickly then the vampire race will die This was marketed in Britain as THE MATRIX meets 28 DAYS LATER but to be honest it resembles Richard Matheson's I AM LEGEND more than anything else with the vampires themselves not portrayed as out and out baddies , just merely as a species trying to survive . The idea that vampires are not the angst ridden teens of the TWILIGHT saga makes a nice change and it's fascinating that they're victims of Malthus doctrine of population that is causing them to become mutant degenerates called " subsiders " . DAYBREAKERS is absolutely compelling and thought provoking when it concentrates on the dilemmas facing the vampire race There is a massive spanner in the works and that is within the internal logic of the film it is far too convenient that it's only now with a one months supply of blood remaining the vampires only realise the problem facing them . It's also a bit too convenient that one of the vampires just happens to bump in to a character who was once a vampire who has found a way to reverting back to human form . The solution to this reversion back in to human is so simplistic it's impossible to believe that in the preceding ten years a population of several billion vampires haven't stumbled upon this easy cure This ties in with another flaw of the movie and that is the villains aren't really the vampires but corporate capitalism . In some ways it's a bit of a conspiracy thriller where the cure will affect a company's profits and therefore they think it's a better idea to keep everyone has a vampire rather than a human . It might be an interesting theory but the chief baddie played by Sam Neil is painted so broadly he stops being a cinematic character and becomes a cliché This is a great pity because DAYBREAKERS is a genuinely impressive stylish horror movie in parts that brings a new twist to the genre . I did actually suffer a couple of startle moments that caused me to jump and it's also a film that has a sharp and cold cinematography that suits the film perfectly but as is often said if a film is good it's down to the director and if it's bad it's down to the screenplay and the screenplay just falls short of making this a classic horror movie

In 2019, after an epidemic, the majority of the worldwide population is composed of vampires and less than 5% of humans. The blood supply is compromised and only the upper classes can afford to buy it and the lower classes are turning into "subsiders" species due to the lack of nourishment. The hematologist Edward Dalton (Ethan Hawkes) is sympathetic to the human race and unsuccessfully researches a blood substitute for the Bromley Marks, a corporation owned by Charles Bromley (Sam Neill), while his brother Frankie (Michael Dorman) is a military that hunts humans for the government. Edward accidentally meets the human Audrey Bennett (Claudia Karvan) and she invites him to meet her friend Lionel 'Elvis' Cormac (Willem Dafoe). Edward learns that Elvis was a vampire and he had accidentally found the cure. However, the powerful and greedy Bromley is not interested to cure the population. "Daybreakers" is an original vampire movie that could have been a classic. The idea of a society ruled by vampires with fight of classes with the deprivation of blood supply for the lower classes is very interesting and the film practically does not use clichés. Unfortunately in the last quarter of the film, the story becomes gore, with the formulaic excessive use of special effects and vampires exploding. My vote is seven. Title (Brazil): "2019 – O Ano da Extinção" ("2019 – The Year of the Extinction") Note: On 02 April 2017, I saw this film again on Blu-Ray.

OK I went to the cinema with high expectations for this film, with words like 'think matrix and 28 days later' emblazoned on posters, who didn't. So, Where do i begin??? Well ill start with something positive. then ill give you all the bits that i don't like and then ill end on a positive. The concept of the film is really original and is something i haven't seen in a film before. i like the fact that vampires have taken over, cos lets face it if there were such things in our world then they would probably rule over us. Now for some negative remarks. After the initial pacing of the first 45 minutes everything falls apart and feels way too rushed. The cure is found out pretty much halfway through the film and is, lets put it this way, week to say the least.***Spoiler*** Sunlight! a cure for vampirism is sunlight! This seems ridiculous to me. especially after the opening scene where there is a female sitting on a bench in front of her house waiting for the sunrise and as soon as it comes up she is on fire and is burnt to ash within seconds. so sunlight is a stupid cure if you are going to open your film with this scene. The introduction of one character (the daughter) is actually detrimental to the film. adding a story inside a story that wasn't at all needed. and added no depth, just distracted from the main story and took time that could have been better used to add mood and pace. Vampire lore is not followed at all really. The vampires aren't particularly strong like they should be or fast. they are just humans really but with the added fact they needed blood. And when did vampires start eating humans. i thought that they only sucked blood. But in this film they rip humans or other vampires to shreds and eat organs and intestines, this was probably just done to get the gore rating up. but really just makes you wonder what the writers were thinking. Then at the end your left wondering whether the cure is actually good for the world or bad because your left with cured humans, passing on the cure, but first to be able to be cured you need to devour a cured human. so surely this is a vicious cycle that will end in the devastation of the world. Makes you wonder whether the build up was worth it. The directors also go for some cheap scares, little silent jumpy parts that get the girls in the cinema yelping which i suppose is OK sometimes, but not every time. lets just say spierig brothers... watchowski brothers you are not! I said id end on a positive and i will. so.. The cast and acting is amazing. to see Sam Neill as a very convincing top dog is wonderful and sinister and giving Ethan hawke a go, is inspired in this film as he suits the vampire look. Willem Defoe again is just amazing and has some cool one liners which adds a touch if not enough humour to the film. All in all i wish i could say that i enjoyed this film, but i really really didn't. Better than the teeny vampire movies of the last 2 years but still way off for me to find entertaining.
