30 Days of Night Reviews

Douses its audience in carnage and suspense.

| Original Score: 8/10 | Nov 24, 2020

The aerial tracking shot of the battlefield... deserves an ovation. [Full review in Spanish]

| Original Score: 3.5/5 | Nov 2, 2020

A sadly missed opportunity, a waste of talent on senseless dreck that made even the always welcome Danny Huston as the vampire leader look silly.

| Original Score: 1.5/4 | Jul 6, 2019

A blissfully mean-spirited and aggressively creepy terror tale, and one that's not content to simply rest on its one good concept.

| Aug 28, 2015

Here is one of those rare movies that penetrates the membrane separating all those disposable "gotcha" scarefests from genuinely engrossing supernatural thrillers.

| Original Score: 3.5/4 | Oct 22, 2014

| Original Score: 4/4 | Nov 29, 2011

| Original Score: 3/5 | Nov 17, 2011

It's Assault on Precinct 13 meets the The Thing with vampires as the baddies (Can we count the ways director John Carpenter has influenced genre films today?).

| Original Score: B- | Nov 6, 2010

These 30 Days feel like an eternity

| Aug 27, 2009

Scrapping many of the undead cliches and aided by troublingly realistic special effects, Slade has crafted one hell of a monster movie.

| Original Score: 3/4 | Jul 24, 2009

About as scary as Count Chocula.

| Original Score: 1.5/4 | Apr 23, 2009

| Original Score: B | Oct 18, 2008

Not bad, but let's just say the movie could have used a tad more intentional humor.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Aug 7, 2008

30 Days of Night aspires to be little more than a movie-movie, where you're supposed to enjoy the ride, without asking any questions.

| Jul 9, 2008

... [T]he hissing foreign-language chatting vampires, with all pointy teeth, make for dull, screaming villains.

| Original Score: 1.5/4 | Jun 18, 2008

The action is fast and gruesome, but beyond Niles and Templesmith's unique setting, in which the typical race to daylight is stretched out to an agonizing marathon, '30 Days of Night' offers little to stir the imagination.

Full Review | Original Score: 1.5/4 | Apr 9, 2008

Frankly, after you've seen one writhing, orgiastic vampire feeding, you've seen them all.

| Apr 3, 2008

This isn't my favourite genre, but it's evident that the film delivers all the requisite elements for fans itching to sit through decapitations, body ripping and blood-soaked, tooth gnashing devourings directed in as fresh a way as is possible.

| Mar 7, 2008

I was done when there was a needless scene abusing a woman. And the ending was on the verge of interesting, until it came down to one little punch.

| Original Score: 3/10 | Mar 4, 2008
