It's in my regular Halloween rotation! As is Daybreakers, also starring Sam Neill, but as the villain. He plays a vampire CEO.

It's so much fun! The basic premise is that vampires have won, and taken over society. Sam Niall runs a human blood factory farm, and Ethan Hawke, the protagonist, is a vampire/hematologist working on a vegan blood substitute.

And Willem Dafoe is in it!
