Horror capsule review
30 Days of Night (2008)
When the sun sets on the tiny Alaskan hamlet for the last time in 30 days, the population find themselves on the menu for a plague ship full of vampires. The local sheriff (Josh Hartnett) and his estranged wife (Melissa George) must fight to save who they can, but at what cost? A brilliant elevator pitch powers this gory siege movie, adapted by director David Slade from the comic by Steve Nile and Ben Templesmith.
