             Barrow, Alaska, has thirty days of night every winter when the sun doesn’t rise above the horizon. This year when the residents are nestling down, things start happening. Mobile phones are burnt, all the sled dogs are murdered, the lights go off, computers and phones are out, the helicopter is vandalised. And people die gruesome bloody deaths.

       Vampires have invaded the northern most town on the continent.

       It’s exciting and the setting makes a great backdrop to this unusual vampire film. If you’re a fan of vampire films, as I am, you’ll like it. If not, you still might enjoy the Alaskan winter.
