Fun Facts: A Linguistics Professer in a New Zealand University came up with the language for the vampires in the film.

 

Steve Niles originally conceived the story as a film. After years of rejection by studios, it was reworked into a comic book. Eventually, a studio that rejected the original screenplay went for the comic version.

 

The little girl vampire has arm tattoos that are visible for a few frames. The stick figure-like tattoo on her right arm is the logo of German industrial band Einstürzende Neubauten.

 

All of the vampires have names, but they’re not mentioned until the end credits.

 

Summary: When an Alaskan town plunges into darkness for a month, a group of vampires took an opportunity to terrorize its citizens.

 

The Review: How about I tell you that Burrow’s length of night time is over a month. The plot is meh, But the vampires are the most badass vampires I have ever seen!
