Abraham Lincoln Vampire Hunter Reviews, Interviews & More
The wheels keep rolling forward on 20th Century Fox’s reboot of the Fantastic Four franchise. Matthew Vaughn (Kick-Ass, X-Men: First Class) has already been brought in to produce, and Josh Trank (Chronicle) has been brought in to direct. And now Seth Grahame-Smith, whose screenwriting credits...
The popularity of our nation's 16th President, Abraham Lincoln, seems to be at an all-time high. Just within the last year and a half we have had movies such as Robert Redford's The Conspirator, the low-budget Abraham Lincoln vs. Zombies, and last week's Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter. If that isn't enough,...
Though Brave may not have had the critical consensus of Pixar films in the past - films that often have nearly 100% Rotten Tomato ratings - that wasn't going to keep parents and children from one of the best brands in the business. Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter didn't pass the sniff test, but may be okay as a smaller gamble. Check out the...
"History prefers legends to men. It prefers nobility to brutality, soaring speeches to quiet deeds. History remembers the battle, but forgets the blood." Those haunting words describe Timur Bekmambetov and Tim Burton's historical-horror mash-up, Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter. The 3D adaptation is filled with blood and guts but plays...
This weekend Brave and Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter hit screens in one of the strangest summers seasons on record. Movies that cost over $100 Million (and much more) have been tanking with regularity. Will that effect these new releases?
One of the best byproducts of Tim Burton having a busy year (he directed Dark Shadows, and produced Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter) is that the quirky director is having to do a ton of press. And with that press comes more and more questions about the long-rumored Beetlejuice 2. During his Dark Shadows junket, he cryptically noted that Lincoln writer...
These days it's a problem for event movies not to have tie-in promotional possibilities. We saw it recently with Prometheus, which used Coors to sell the film even though it takes place in the future and no one drinks beer in the movie. So it's a stretch that Linkin Park recorded a song for Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter, but that's what end...
Just when you thought the numerous Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter trailers couldn’t get more ridiculous… well, they get more ridiculous. First, there was the insane teaser trailer. Then, the international trailer, followed by the nutty U.S. version. Then, we had the gore-spattered Red-Band trailer featuring our 16th president decapitating vamps with an axe. Now, in time...
Worried that the adaptation of Seth-Grahame Smith’s novel about our 16th president’s lifelong quest for vengeance after his mother is murdered by vampires would be toned down for the big screen? Well, worry no further, as Timur Bekmambetov’s cinematic take on the nutty Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter is drenched with blood, vicious axe-play,...
With a title like Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter, you kind of know what to expect when you watch one of the insane trailers for the film here, here and here, or, in today’s case, when you check out the featurette with Timur Bekmambetov, producer Tim Burton and writer Seth Grahame-Smith discussing the film while footage of our 16th president...
Well, WonderCon 2012 has been the gift that keeps on giving this weekend. In addition to bestowing upon us the full trailer for the massively anticipated new Ridley Scott film, Prometheus (watch it here—you won’t regret it), Saturday at WonderCon also gave a new, more in-depth preview to the insanity that is Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter. Check out the new trailer...
Just yesterday, we showed you the first teaser trailer for the upcoming Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter, an adaptation of Seth Grahame-Smith’s novel of the same name. Chock full of, well Abraham Lincoln killing vampires while Johnny Cash growled in the background, it was one of the nuttier and bizarre trailers we’ve seen in recent memory.
But then we saw the...
In what has to be the most deranged teaser you’re likely to see in all of 2012, the new clip for Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter finds our 16th president, the Illinois Rail Splitter, fighting legions of vampires while leaping around with an axe and CGI abandon. You almost want to dislike it, but the sheer, gleeful insanity of it all makes it hard to suppress an amused smirk at the...
Last week, there was a rumor circulating that Oscar winning film composer Trent Reznor was going produce the score of Abraham Lincoln Vampire Hunter and appear on screen in a supporting role. After the news swept the net like wildfire, Reznor himself has decided to clear up any misunderstanding about his involvement in the film.
Trent Reznor has had a hell of a year. The former Nine Inch Nails frontman has found a new career path in feature films. The Oscar winning composer (The Social Network) is currently working on the score for David Fincher's latest project The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo, and according to Badass Digest, Abraham...
More people are joining the cast of Abraham Lincoln Vampire Hunter. According to Variety, Jimmi Simpson has signed on for a role in the Tim Burton produced horror/historic hybrid. He'll fight (literally) alongside Benjamin Walker who plays the title role of President Lincoln. More on the film below...
Well, well, well, look what we have here. It seems as if the earlier report regarding Australian actress Robin McLeavy landing the role of Mary Todd in Abraham Lincoln Vampire Hunter was false! According to THR, Scott Pilgrim vs The World star Mary Elizabeth Winstead has been hired for the part instead.
Update: Mary Elizabeth Winstead has been cast in the role of Mary Todd. Read it now!
Abraham Lincoln Vampire Hunter is on a roll. Last week several major casting announcements were made regarding the supporting roster, which included the addition of Anthony Mackie and Dominic Cooper. Now according to Latino Review, another power player has...
Earlier today we learned that Anthony Mackie would be joining Benjamin Walker in Abraham Lincoln Vampire Hunter as his trusted companion Will. Now according THR, another actor has joined the film and it's none other than Dominic Cooper (because apparently he's in everything)! He's got a great agent!
A couple weeks ago it was announced that Benjamin Walker would play the title role in the film adaptation of Abraham Lincoln Vampire Hunter. Now we're hearing that his sidekick and most trusted pal has also been cast, and it's none other than Anthony Mackie. We guess he's the go-to guy when it comes to being a friend in high stake situations. Get it "stake?"
