Daybreakers
2010
Earth's population is up against a vicious plague that's transforming everyone into vampires and draining the world of an increasingly precious resource: blood. Edward Dalton (Ethan Hawke) and "Elvis" Cormac (Willem Dafoe) must decide what happens next. As the human race count nears zero, will vampires feast on the few men and women who remain, or could science hold the key to a less destructive solution? Sam Neill and Claudia Karvan co-star.

I enjoyed this movie. The idea of humans being a minority in a vampire movie is intriguing. I felt the ending was slopped together and could have been executed much more successfully. All in all... I would view this movie in the theaters again.
The movie was fine, though the 'running out of blood' premise seemed contrived. The ending was poorly thought out too - they could have cured the entire city/world from the building they were already in - why leave?
If you are searching for a "Different" Vampire Movie, this one is just for you.
First good vampire movie in a decade or more, probably. Has a great twist, and a decent plot. Eric Dafoe is excellent.
