Storyline
This is the story of an isolated Alaskan town that is plunged into darkness for a month each year when the sun sinks below the horizon. As the last rays of light fade, the town is attacked by a bloodthirsty gang of vampires bent on an uninterrupted orgy of destruction. Only the small town's husband-and-wife Sheriff team stand between the survivors and certain destruction. —ahmetkozan

A Brainless Fast-Paced Bloodbath.
Nothing else to see here folks! A gang of Vampires attack an excluded Alaskan town during a full month with no sunlight.
The idea is interesting but the production is awfully bad. The only decent thing in this movie was the vampire makeup and their facial design which looked interesting, some kind of a hybrid between the typical demonic faces and a classic vampire face. On the other hand, the story is very limited, very fast-paced to the level that you can barely relate to any character, the cinematography although having very few decent fixed scenes, the director screws up movie with applying the shaky camera technique in most of the movie...beside the obvious reason in which to cover over the major goofs, he was trying to imply the randomness and the speed of the attack but, No...It was poorly executed as it can make the audience confused and less focused on the major events. The editing was another fall for this, as some scenes feels they are missing parts to give an appropriate explanation, all in which led to an over all average experience unless you are into a brainless vampire flick.
