I'm actually really excited about this movie.
When I first saw the book in stores I was like, "How the fuck is that supposed to work?" But then the audio version was on sale on audible.com and I had a long drive to make, so I got it, and it was actually really fucking good. I wasn't expecting to like it at all.
It's funny how the concept came about. The author noticed that for a while bookstore windows always seemed to be filled with either new books about vampires, or new biographies about Lincoln, so he had the crazy idea of combining the two to see if he could make it work. The coolest part is how he spins real historical events into somehow being tied into fictional vampire shit. The dude must've done a lot of homework.
For the record, I am against Twilight and all this new vampire fad shit, but this Abraham Lincoln Vampire Hunter book was actually really damn good.
Also I've heard that Daniel Day Lewis will be portraying Abe in a much more serious movie in the not too distant future. Looking forward to that as well.
