Abraham Lincoln Vampire Hunter
Alright. I have been wanting to see this movie since I heard of it! I mean come on, Abraham Lincoln VAMPIRE HUNTER.
I'm also a Tim Burton fan so I really wanted to watch this movie. My Dad brought it over today, and we watched it together.
I was thinking it might be kind of hokey, but it really wasn't in my opinion. I really liked this movie. I didn't like the movie as much for the story, but for the fight scenes. There's something sexy about an angry man wielding an ax like a ninja, while wearing period clothing. Or...maybe I'm just weird. No, really...this movie was right up my alley: Historical fiction, sci-fi, dark, awesome fight scenes, general bad-assery. Woohoo!
My favorite scene in this movie takes place on a train that is supposed to be carrying silver to Union troops so they can properly fight against the Confederate army/vampires. (spoiler) The vampires want to stop the train, blah blah, and Lincoln and his guys fight the vampires on the train. It's a really epic fight scene--especially with the trestle/bridge burning beneath the train, fighting on top of the speeding train, and cool ninja-ax stuff.
Even Mary Todd had a bad-ass moment! I really liked her character. She was a fireball. :)
I also loved when Lincoln delivered The Gettysburg Address. Maybe I'm a nerd, but it gave me shivers. Unf, it would have been amazing to really have been there to hear him deliver that speech.
I would really recommend this movie. In my opinion it is worth watching, you will be entertained. It is certainly not cheesy as I expected it to be. I'm sure I'll watch it again.
Axe Cop, eat your heart out!
Meh, just kidding. Axe Cop is still awesome.
This ^ I want to be it for Halloween. Who cares if I'm a female. I was Snape last year. STUPID BOOBS. >>
Anyway, watch Abraham Lincoln Vampire Hunter if you get the chance!
Mwah. *hugs*
