The art reminds me of Grant Morrison's Arkham Asylum. I liked that the vamps spoke their own language. I feel like creatures as ancient as vampires would have an old language.

One of my favorite horror movies of the past decade. This movie was brutal and frightening, also Ben Foster is always fun to watch. I've been wanting to read the comics for a while, i'm more convinced now. Great review, as always.

The vampire language was definitely an interesting choice. Most vampire fiction these days tries to make vampires as human as possible but 30 Days of Night went the complete opposite direction. Not only do they look far from human but the language makes them seem truly alien.

wtf....I fuckin got scared when I saw the teeth. ; D Wasn't expecting that...

Another great review/comparison, Ms Marianna! You are always thorough in your analysis of the material and your grades are always justified as a result. I actually had not heard of the film version (at least not in my area), but I will check into now that I have seen your review. Looking forward to your next review!

So glad you reviewed this Marianna. This is easily one of my favorite vampire flicks, for all the reasons you mentioned. Now I'm really interested in the comic (great video idea btw, comparing the 2). Looking forward to your next comic/movie comparison!

Haha love the video :) You're actually kinda scary as a vampire :D. I love how you actually show some of the artwork when you review. So many comic book channels don't do that and personally I think its essential to the experience :)

i enjoyed the part of the movie where its montage of the town being attacked from a birds eye veiw. very cool, the screams made me have a hard time sleeping. best movie ive seen in a while

Great review. Love the intro.

I was recommended to your channel by Trina from Between Chapters :D So happy to find another Booktuber talking about horror!!

Great reviews! I watched the movie a few years ago and I will definitely read the comics now. Greetings from Brazil!

Have you tried reading Junji Ito's work? It also has some adaptations for TV and Cinema but they never capture how creepy and scary the Mangas are. I truly yhink you can enjoy them, and maybe you can start with his short stories. Anyway, great video!!!

I actually prefer the movie, I think the story did need the extra bits and bobs added by the movie. The movie suffered for only one reason and I feel it could have been even longer, but the comic is so short you'll read it and wonder if you're missing pages. Comic feels like the writer had an idea, knew how he wanted it to end, but had no clue on what to put in the middle. The comic solely feels incomplete.

Good review. I've always liked this movie and I feel it is a little bit underrated. Btw are you an Evil Dead fan? If so it would be cool if you released some review about the series.

read the book

what I meant was that no one has ever compared the ending of Edge ofTomorrow movie vs the end of the novel and manga- the novel has a very unique ending while the movie goes for the typical happy ending.

I loved both the comic and the movie! Two of the rare occasions where vampires creeped me out big time. Especially Marlow played by Danny Huston. Speaking of vampires, have you seen What We Do In The Shadows? Great review as always, Marianna!

It's not a vampire movie but there is a horror movie called Haute Tension or High Tension. It's french and pretty awesome. If you haven't seen it you should check it out.

Hi Vampirianna! I watched this movie few years ago and I liked the concept of the vampires a a brutal predators on human beings. But why the vampires did not attack systematically house by house, feeding on their victims and then, burning the houses. The shot in which the stranger is walking in the snow and the big boat (that looks like as a creepy castle) is behind him, is splendid! By the way, an excellent review.

I love 30 days of night. It's one of my fave vampire movie ever. Great review! And awesome intro video.

Dat intro tho O_O Seriously, I need to get my hands on this comic. The movie sounds awesome as well. Plus, I used to have a MAJOR crush on Josh Hartnett.... so that's a bonus.

Hi, Marianna. I have a question which I don't know if you already have answered yet. Do you think it is possible for a filmmaker to make a movie that overpasses the quality of the book (or comic book) from which it was based? I mean, without modifying the source, but through a proper use of cinematographic language. Stanley Kubrick used to do that, but he changed quite a lot of the book story.

Did you read the whole series ?

The movie adaptation is one of the best vampire movies ever made. Pure terror. Making them speak in ancient language was an brilliant idea.

Well he did not had a change of heart the first time they attack he says that they are supossed to take their heads off so they can not turn.

Great review! Okay I'm so buying that comic now and holy crap that scene with The Stranger could've been bad ass in the movie! I definitely would've liked to see Ben Foster do more with that role since he is such an underrated actor! Also Vincent should have been played by Wilem Dafoe since he played the classic vampire of Nosferatu in this indie horror film called "Shadow of The Vampire". Overall I still enjoy this movie, saw it in theaters when it 1st came out and I think they captured the atmosphere perfectly!! The characters definitely needed to be fleshed out more for us to care about them. I give it a 8/10

loved the comic vs. movie comparison! please do Edge of Tomorrow novel vs. manga vs. movie!! I'm a new viewer of ur channel, love it! The Novel and Manga carry the original title All You Need Is Kill, my favorite novel of all! The novel is a light 200 pages, a good quick read, if you end up doing a review on this please discuss the ending, no one on utube has done that!!

I had to look a little hard at that thumbnail because I know I didn't just see you with fangs. haha! I didn't expect those first few seconds and it actually caught me off guard! In your next video, you should talk about how you want to conquer the world by taking everybody's blood! :)

What's c2e2?

Hi Marianna - I totally agree. It's not a great movie. But I enjoyed it much more than I expected to. I still wish that you would do a book vs movie review of Let the Right one In. Both are great. Best wishes, Ted

Watch the movie with no subtitles for the vamps. That's the way I watched it the first few times assuming it was how it was intended and it made it so much better!

Amazing video I love what u do

Marianna, I saw your tweets on the attacks in Brussels and I want to thank you for expressing your solidarity with my country. We all knew it was going to happen at some point, but that doesn't make the shock any less. Life goes on as they say, but right now I'm just numb. All this senseless terror... why?

Damn... This review brings some nostalgia ! I've seen it in 2009 I think (or 08... One of these years haha) Josh Hartnett is now in Penny Dreadful.. a good drama fantasy-horror TV show (Eva Green is also in it)

30 days of night is in my top 5 favorite vampire movies, very underrated

I'm not 100% sure about this, but I think they're reason for having Marlow burn the town down - or attempting - was because the movie tried to have it implied that they've done it before; that they've gone to other towns and killed everyone then burned it town to cover their tracks, but you make a great point that they could've implied/shown that better to make viewers understand. You make me want to get the comic

i like both comics and the movie at the same time. id give em both 🌟🌟🌟🌟

My recommendations are already on whatever radar you have: Insidious (part 1 / the first.. if you like it... try the others too even if in my opinion are not as good as the first) Drag me to HeII Take your blanket and watch (some of them) haha After you watch these.. I might recommend others too

you should try the Game of Thrones graphic novel hardback

Great. Now I want to read this. Why are you so convincing? hahaha ps. The new format of the videos is really cool,especially when you show the books or comics and flip the pages :)

I stumbled onto this comic book series in a thrift store 😅 never seen the movie, didn't know it took place in my home state until I cracked it open. 10 out of 10 best thrift find

The Vampires look Eastern European, which to me made sense why they sounded they were speaking a mixture of Slavic, and Germanic. But overall it's a very good and underrated Vampire film.

U should review Watchmen.

A great film.

I couldn't stop staring at her eyes. I don't know if it's just this video but they're different colors. (one green one brown)

My favorite piece of vampire media besides Abraham Lincoln Vampire Hunter

Agreed with most everything. Only thing I disagree with is the vampire language, I liked it, thought it was a nice touch, and if I remember correctly I especially liked it that it had a lot ingressive sounds in its language. I'll try and think of a good recommendation, thought my go to recommendation for those that like this is American Vampire.

Hmm seeing Evan tag team Vampires with his wife? Cool but seeing that they still had feelings was interesting. Though right not enough character development.

I thought the movie was great and I REALLY want to read the comics now and maybe even the books.

Bite me! I want to live forever :) I agree with your rating of the movie, it's worth seeing once. To be fair, the novel Dracula is a gothic mystery, so vampires have always been more than just monsters.

I miss classics like 'Lost Boys', and the original 'Fright Night!' Funny and frightening.

NEXT TO THE ORIGINAL "SALEM'S LOT", "30 DAYS OF NIGHT" IS MY FAVORITE VAMPIRE FILM ! I LOVED THE WAY THE MOVIE STARTED OUT AS A SOFT GOOD NATURED HOLIDAY SEASON FILM. AND THEN GRADUALLY LET THE TENSION AND FEAR RISE AS THE HORROR INCIDENTS BEGAN. IN FACT THE ONLY PROBLEM IS THAT THE TOWN'S NORMAL POPULATION WAS OVER MATCHED. I CAN'T SEE ANYONE SURVIVING THE VAMPIRE'S ATTACK UNLESS THEY COULD USE THE HISTORICAL WEAPONS SUCH AS CLOVES OF GARLIC AND CROSSES. FURTHERMORE, ONCE THE TOWN'S COMMUNICATIONS WERE CUT OFF, OUTSIDERS SUCH AS THE STATE POLICE AND FAMILY RELATIVES SHOULD HAVE ARRIVED TO INVESTIGATE. MORE NORMAL CITIZENS SHOULD HAVE SLOWLY TURNED INTO VAMPIRES WHICH WOULD HAVE HAD THE FILMS AUDIENCE IN TERROR AS THEY WONDERED WHO WOULD HAVE CHANGED NEXT. THE TOWN SHOULD HAVE HAD A COUPLE OF HIDDEN UNDERGROUND SHELTERS AND A FEW MORE POLICE OFFICERS. A MULTI ETHNIC GROUP OF TEEN AGE CHARACTERS MIGHT HAVE ATTRACTED A LARGER TEEN AGE AUDIENCE FOR THE FILM, AS IT DID FOR "TWILIGHT" . THAT GREAT SCENE OF SHERIFF EBEN USING THE ELECTRIC SUN LAMP SHOULD HAVE BEEN THE ENDING. ACTOR ANDREW STEHLIN STOLE THE SHOW AS THE VAMPIRE ARVIN. HE PROVIDED INSTANT TERROR IN EVERY SCENE HE APPEARED !!!! "30 DAYS OF NIGHT" IS THE BEST VAMPIRE MOVIE OF THE DECADE !!!!

i wish hollywood would adapt real vampir from romania, because the real ones are nothing like the movies, they are much more creepier and there's lore, for example the movies make it seem like they are scared of garlic, but in reality garlic has nothing to do with them, and it's used as protection, but for something else (there is a certain date in which all evil walks the world) and people use garlic to mark a cross on their windows and doors for protection, but that's not for vampires, for vampires you open the grave during the day, you open the vampire up, you take their heart, and then the family member has to cook it and eat it, or others used to bind the vampire, this is one of the reasons why people have found so many old graves in europe with people tied up in them

i like movie better

This is easily my favorite vampire film of the last decade.

Pretty sweet fangs

Okay, I'm lying at all, but 0:04 actually caught me completely off guard I was not ready for chills

That scared me a little bit

I bet you're a mcr superfan

I don't want to keep it.

Prettiest eyes on youtube. For what it's worth :)

What the f-ck ! This was quite a scary intro ! haha At first I was like... WTF happened to your teeth ? PS: They look.. NICE ! PS2: Can you bite me please ?.. Lol

man those fangs look real on you

Yea, i'm gonna have to buy the comic now, sounds much better than the film. Also, Do you have heterochromia? you eyes look a different colour to each other.

Its always great to hear comparison between the comic and the movie Funny though when you said this is a proper vampire movie and not the shity version. The Director of the movie directed a sequel to a shity version of vampire movie.

I thought it was kinda cool having there own language shows how old and how far back they actually go.and there not human so I didn't mind.the problem was the end battle the hero saved the day Clichy I didn't like

good, now I'm sure. I will see it , the trailer left me sceptical but you didn't.

I like the film more than the comic.

Interesting review I fell asleep watching the movie last night. Maybe i´ll borrow the book and see how that works for me .

What are you talking about?The fact that the vampires speak their own language made the movie even more horrific.I actually loved that fact.

yes, i know that. There is a graphic novel based on the first book

The vampire language in the movie is logical. Not everyone can cater to our language. Over half the humans on the planet don't speak english. Why would ancient vampires know our language? How about all the other hundred languages? Them speaking English would have been cheesey and unrealistic. Would aliens speak our language, or their own language? Foreign languages are always more intimidating. That's why it works rather than not.

nice idea with the spoiler banner, btw..."thanks for watching"?¿? how about we thank you for talking ;-)

I haven't read the novel . but the movie was very very very bad . the movie doesn't make sense at all .

So to you the whole Vampire language thing is in fact not an ingenious way that makes the creatures seem more atmospheric and mysterious of their history, but it just comes of as "cheesy" Yeah, um, I don't think so mate, that is a really unfair criticism against something that is actually original to the vampires as a whole

as always ~ you're so sweet ; )

Do u have heterochromia or are u actually a real vampire?

Don't watch the sequel.
