Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter

[lesbiassparrow]

lage_nom_ai you did not lie! Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter is one of the great films of our time. THE TRAINING MONTAGE OF AXE-WIELDING! THE JUMPING FROM HORSE TO HORSE IN PURSUIT! THE ACTUAL AXE-WIELDING! All of it awesome, people, and I haven't even finished the movie yet. This is all going to replace the three facts I actually know about Lincoln's early

Pure cinematic brilliance, it is.

I am so sorry I never saw this in the cinema and came late to its brilliance.

I never thought I'd ever hear the words "Abraham Lincoln" and "training montage" in the same sentence.

It's...AWESOME. I cannot quite express how awesome: you have to see it for yourself. You will never, ever think of Honest Abe the same way again. Or Mary Todd Lincoln. AWESOME STUFF AND AXES AND WIELDING OF THEM PLUS KILLING EVIL SLAVE-HOLDING VAMPIRES...

From now on this is going into my (limited) understanding of the Civil War as ABSOLUTE TRUTH. Train, Harriet Tubman, everything.

LOL I'm not sure if you're being serious or not, but I really liked it. It was much better than I thought it would be.

I am deadly serious. THIS WAS AMAZING. I never knew that I wanted to see Abraham Lincoln kill vampires with an axe until this film.

Cool! I had wanted to see it in the theater, but we never quite made it.

I saw it this summer with a group of steampunks (the ideal audience for 19th century ridiculousness) and we enjoyed the hell out of it.

I'm thinking of doing a double feature of this and the Daniel Day-Lewis version once that's also out on DVD.
