Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter

Had a rough day at the office? I have the perfect stupid (but in a good way) action movie to entertain you.

Of course it's campy! Read the title: Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter (2012).

But it's not too campy. It's the perfect movie to enjoy a frosty adult beverage or two, relax and cheer to. Not much thought required.

Do you really need a synopsis? Honest Abe kicks vampire butt. Done.

The cast is fine. No overt overacting. And Rufus Sewell always plays a villain well. (Weird note: I'd never before seen an uncredited actors list bigger than the credited actors.)

But this is an action movie. And the action is done well: not totally unbelievable (except for once), and no super-quick jump cuts so you can't see what's happening - the curses of an action movie, for me.

It is rated R for violence, but it isn't super gory. 

Rent this for a fun, easy watch.
