Vampires as an endangered species? Daybreakers takes the premise and sinks its fangs into the notion that sucking too much blood is just as unsustainable as overfishing. Neither a teen-friendly Twilight clone nor a True Blood-style Southern Gothic romp, Daybreakers is scarier than most contemporary takes.
The setup: Vampires have sucked the planet nearly dry and driven humans to the brink of extinction. The resultant blood shortage threatens vampire survival and sends scientists and money-hungry corporations on a race to find a substitute.
The R-rated Daybreakers, opening Friday, depicts a future world dominated by vampires. No longer shadowy outcasts, vampire cops try to control vampire riots when the blood supply falters. Vampire scientists work in vampire-run labs. Homeless vampires live beneath city streets and devolve into something far worse than hungry hobos when they can’t find food.
