Abraham Lincoln has been very popular these last several months. Actually for about 2 years now with everything historical that has come out and over a year ago whispers of a movie based on a new trend in horror, the fusion of pop culture with historical literature that has given rise not only to Abe the Vamp Slayer but also a coming soon Zombie romp around Pride and Prejudice. I like this blend it is almost a V8 moment for the horror genre. You just think that it should have already been done before. At least outside of Cartoon Network that is.
Anyway there is a low budget Abe Lincoln Vampire film and then this bigger budget film due out June 22, 2012. Finally after on again off again rumors and writer director changes the guys behind “Abraham Lincoln Vampire Hunter” have gotten to work doing what they promised us. An educational fictionalized vamp slayer flick. Check out the new image from the studio…
“Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter explores the secret life of our greatest President, and the untold story that shaped our nation. Visionary filmmakers Tim Burton and Timur Bekmambetov (director of Wanted) bring a fresh and visceral voice to the blood-thirsty lore of the vampire, imagining Lincoln as history’s greatest hunter of the undead.”
