ScreenDaily reports about a new vampire flick that I haven't heard of before called "Daybreakers". Sam Neill ("Jurassic Park") and Ethan Hawke ("Assault on Precinct 13") are in the cast. It was written and will be directed by the Spierig brothers who made the zombie movie "Undead" a couple of years back that got all sorts of good buzz.
"Daybreakers" is set in 2017 and it sounds like the world is a nasty place to live in. A plague has swept over the planet and it sounds like there aren't many humans left alive. The vampires of the world are trying to find a cure for the plague presumably to make sure that their favorite food source doesn't just disappear. No word if Hawke or Neill's characters play humans or bloodsuckers.
Filming will begin in July in Australia for Lionsgate.
