More Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter

Every time I write the words ‘Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter’, my heart takes a beat of joy. There may be no geekiest, more fantastically giddy phrase in all of pop culture. I don’t care if this movie looks kind of schlocky, it looks to be the good kind of schlocky. This new trailer is fantastic, with plenty of action and mood. It’s also filled with something I absolutely love in movie trailers: bold, cool-sounding one-liners!

The movie will be in theaters on June 21.

Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter Trailer

Say it with me now, it just rolls off the tongue: ‘Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter’.

It’s a concept so silly, so insane, that of course they had to make a movie about it. I never read the book – heard it was only alright – but I’m a big fan of brilliantly mind-boggling ideas. It’s a concept that could only exist in a world of Internet humor. And for that, I approve.

Of course, the movie couldn’t be a comedy. Instead, it has to be a dark, balls-to-the-wall, super-serious action flick starring the Great Emancipator slaying vampires with a wood-cutting ax. Because of course he does.

This trailer is another winner, by the way. Also, does this automatically mean that John Wilkes Booth was a vampire? Or was he some kind of vampire hunter hunter? I guess we’ll have to see the movie to find out!
