This looks like a fun movie. I'm a little vampired out but this looks like something a bit different. The incorporation of history and vampire lore looks pretty cool.

Looks better than I expected but wish they had Speilberg's Lincoln cast, love to see Daniel Day Lewis killing vamps as Abe.

Makes no sense to me. Abe has superpowers?

Looks cool, albeit a little strange.......I think next they should do a George Washington movie in the vein of Pineapple Express, chronicling his Potomac "hemp" distribution...and hilarity ensues!!

Hellsing - 2/13/2012, 8:44 AM
@Ranger14 I can see how the trailer is weird but how the [frick] did you come to the conclusion that Abe has superpowers? Is it because he cut down a tree, you don't really need super powers for that

Hmmm..had no interest in this, but that had potential. Instant props for using Johnny Cash in your trailer for starters.

Hellsing, well, to cut down a tree with ONE SWING, yeah you kinda do.

Loved the book so i hope this gives it justice.

Looks sweet, but the Johnny cash thing has been done a few to many times

Looks pretty fun, and looks like a standard action movie at the same time...then again, it could be fun. Not sure; I'd love to be interested in this, but this doesn't attract me that much. I think I'll get a chance to check out the book first.

And wow, an ax can blow up a tree, I see.

"Ranger14 I can see how the trailer is weird but how the [frick] did you come to the conclusion that Abe has superpowers? Is it because he cut down a tree, you don't really need super powers for that"

lol...um...it's obvious from that question and statement that you have never cut down a tree. You don't shatter a tree with a single swoop of an axe like that. He either has some sort of superpower or the axe is imbued with some sort of power...or a combination of both. Either way, it is a ridiculous depiction of one our country's great presidents.

I read the book a few months ago. Still hoping it includes the [fricker]tboat fight against the old vamp lady and the barn scene with slaves getting eaten by vamps.

Honest Abe's always beeb my favorite president and watching my fav president kicking vampire ass will be schweeeeeet!!!

Is this based of a novel / comic book? When I was younger I seem to remember a book where Abe fought vampires.

@LP4

How old is the book you read?
