Lol hopefully the vampires will be more Lugosi-esque & less Twilighty. I don't know why I want to see this movie, but I do for some reason

The trailer looks very cool.

I loved the book, so personally can't wait for the movie though it does get that unfortunate laugh in the theater when the title pops up just like 'Cowboys and Aliens' did... oh well. Abraham Lincoln having a superhero origin story? never thought of it that way haha

I liked the novel, so hopefully this will be cool.
