I rented the movie Daybreakers the other night and was rather surprised by what I came across and hence, a movie review was motivated. (As if I need an excuse.)
Daybreakers stars Ethan Hawke, Sam Neill, Willem Dafoe, Isabel Lucas, Claudia Karvan & Michael Dorman amongst others who filled out this perfect ensemble for this movie. Daybreakers was written and directed by the team of Michael and Peter Spierig. This movie came out in 2009.

It’s the year 2019. Many humans have become vampires via a plague. Humanity adapted to their new condition and commercialized the process of feeding by capturing most of the remaining humans and process their blood for food. Unfortunately, what’s left of humanity is being hunted down to extinction. All thanks to the vampires who have made an industry of capturing and harvesting the humans for their blood.
As the vampires are faced with the dwindling human population and hence, their food / blood supply, we follow Edward Dalton played by Ethan Hawke, who is sympathetic to the humans and doesn’t agree with chowing down on them. He’s been working on a blood substitute for the vampire nation.
