(1 - 36) of 36 OFCS Rating: 47% Rotten Page   1   "a vampire film of unusually grave conviction, way too cold for camp."   Eye for Film   Anton Bitel "Gone are filmdom's traditional seductive vampires, but '30 Days of Night' still contains chills and thrills galore."   ReelTalk Movie Reviews   Betty Jo Tucker 2/5 "This is a failed fright flick that is so inspired by Stephen King that the famous horror scribe should consider suing."   PopMatters   Bill Gibron D "The producers just had to give the material to director David Slade, a hack filmmaker of the worst kind, who drowns any promise this nihilistic tale of frosty survival held by smothering the picture in excessive, pedestrian visual gymnastics."   DVDTalk.com   Brian Orndorf C- "You can't have horror without suspense. Don't they teach the films of Alfred Hitchcock anymore in film school?"   ColeSmithey.com   Cole Smithey "The most impressive effect in 30 Days of Night is Danny Huston's haircut."   PopMatters   Cynthia Fuchs 3/4 "...a breath of fresh air amidst the relentless deluge of watered-down, teen-oriented cash grabs and remakes."   Reel Film Reviews   David Nusair C "Now if you dig vampire flicks that will gross you out and are filled with gory set pieces, then maybe the high number of ax decapitations will catch your fancy."   Ozus' World Movie Reviews   Dennis Schwartz 2/4 "For a horror picture being released only weeks before Halloween, 30 Days of Night doesn't thrill and it definitely doesn't spook."   TheMovieBoy.com   Dustin Putman B+ "The rare horror film that actually lives up to its potential."   EricDSnider.com   Eric D. Snider 2/4 "So the remaining survivors huddle together. A few get bitten and turn. Some splatter kills in-between. Remind me again of what exactly is 'groundbreaking' about this."   eFilmCritic.com   Erik Childress 3/4 "Redeems the vampire sub-genre, yanking it from the abysmal depths..."   Cinema Crazed   Felix Vasquez Jr. 2.5/4 "Bleak, bombastic and belligerent, Slade's blood-busting bohemians will indeed take a caustic chunk out of your imaginative horrifying souls."   World Voice News   Frank Ochieng C- "Certainly bloody, but not bloody good...doesn't go the tongue-in-cheek route, but by the close it's pretty risible."   One Guy's Opinion   Frank Swietek 3/4 "If this is the kind of movie you're looking for, it delivers."   ReelViews   James Berardinelli 2.5/4 "The isolated, unique nature of the town's plight keeps the film from tapping directly into universal fears, but it will certainly make you grateful to see the sun rise"   Q Network Film Desk   James Kendrick 3/5 "aniso thriler poy mpalatzarei anamesa sti mpimoybiariki anapologitikotita toy kai ti mpantmoybiariki ektelesi toy, kai dihos na mporei na anaparastisei peistika tin komikistiki aisthitiki tis pigis empneysis toy, parapataei me epiloges poy toy prokyptoyn"   Movies for the Masses   Joseph Proimakis 3/5 "It would be fun to rent with friends who talk back to movies and imbibe a little ETOH to facilitate the witty comebacks. Compared to the other Halloween offerings out there this year, 30 Days of Night is really pretty decent value for your money. Great"   Cinerina   Karina Montgomery 2.0/4.0 "Great setup, a mediocre middle, and no follow through make this story a swing and a miss, although an entertainingly bloody mess to watch."   MovieCrypt.com   Kevin A. Ranson B- "...works in its updating of ancient folk lore, but wears us down with its extended jack hammering approach."   Reeling Reviews   Laura Clifford 2.5/4 "Vampires stage a blood orgy in a tiny Alaskan town that spends a month of every year sunk in the darkness of polar winter in this gory adaptation of Steve Niles' popular graphic novel."   TV Guide's Movie Guide   Maitland McDonagh 2.5/4 "Nearly passes muster on atmosphere alone."   Mark Reviews Movies   Mark Dujsik "The concept? Brilliant... The execution? Oh, dear."   Flick Filosopher   MaryAnn Johanson 2/5 "Concept: excellent. Setup: intriguing. Execution: well... too many interesting ideas bungled."   Goatdog's Movies   Michael W. Phillips, Jr. 2/4 "Pushes things into violent, hardcore territory all too similar to Danny Boyle's zombie-outbreak flick 28 Days Later and its 2007 sequel."   Slant Magazine   Nick Schager 2/5 "Os vampiros vistos aqui são pouco mais do que animais irracionais e desinteressantes."   Cinema em Cena   Pablo Villaca 4/5 "Decent vampire movies are few and far between, and I'm having a hard time remembering a recent one that impressed me like 30 Days of Night."   Film Threat   Pete Vonder Haar 1/5 "A bloody bore that utilizes lots of CGI blood and rapid-fire visual glitz in a doomed effort to cover up the fact that there is nothing going on here that even the least committed consumer of vampire-related entertainment hasn't seen many times before"   eFilmCritic.com   Peter Sobczynski 2.5/5 "Overall, the film is freaky and gruesome enough to keep horror fans thrilled, especially as the monsters get stronger, faster, badder and nuttier."   Film Threat   Rich Cline 4/5 "It's not a classic, but it's good blood-spattered fun."   eFilmCritic.com   Rob Gonsalves B- "In order to enjoy the best, you have to put up with the worst... and rarely have "best" and "worst" commingled quite so completely."   Flipside Movie Emporium   Rob Vaux 4/5 "The coolest vampire movie since Near Dark."   FEARnet   Scott Weinberg 1.5/5 "30 Days of Night amounts to two hours of missed opportunities."   Filmcritic.com   Sean O'Connell 2.5/4 "an okay flick"   sbs.is   Stefan Birgir Stefansson 2/4 "Doomed to have its best scenes mistakenly remembered as parts of better movies."   Film Freak Central   Walter Chaw 7/10 Read review   JoBlo's Movie Emporium   JoBlo  (1 - 36) of 36 OFCS Rating: 47% Rotten Page   1
