Like your vampire films with real bite? Daybreakers is a vampire movie in which the fanged ones actually drink human blood, aren't all romanticized, and don't glitter in the sunlight. Written and directed by Michael and Peter Spierig - the filmmaking team behind 2003's Undead - Daybreakers is an R-rated violent vampire film starring Ethan Hawke as a vampire hematologist working on a substitute for human blood.

Lionsgate picked up the script back in 2004, and filming took place on Daybreakers in 2007 - before vampires became the new in thing. Read On...
