It’s been a year since the Alaskan town of Barrow’s population was decimated by vampires during its annual month long sunset.  Riddled with grief over the death of her husband, bound by nightmares and void of all emotions beyond hate and sorrow, Stella (Sanchez) has spent the past months traveling the world, trying to convince others that vampires exist.  

Met with skepticism and laughter, Stella is ready to throw in the towel when a group of lost souls (Coiro, Baird and Perrineau) offers an incredible opportunity: the chance to exact revenge upon Lilith (Kirshner), the vampire queen responsible for the assault on her sleepy Alaskan town.  With nothing remaining to live for, and nothing left to fear, Stella joins their mission and ventures into the uncharted underbelly of Los Angeles where she pushes herself to the most extreme limits to stop the evil from striking again.

Already voted for it. Of course, I voted for Night Of The Demons as well, so I guess that kind of cancels out helping one get rated higher than the other Party

Sounds cool enough.The only problem I had with the first one was that a new born vampire could defeat an elder {or at least a more experienced vampire}That was a little weak for me.But I loved the whole Alaska 30 bays of night thing.

It is REALLY disappointing to hear this is going "straight to DVD" it is a very sad fate. The original was great, and pretty true to the comic, now they are still stikcing to it, and yet since SHIT like Saw is what is popular, a potentially good film will not get it's possibly deserved respect.

Mia Krishner !
Jenny fuckin' Shecter in the new 30 Days of Night.
That, alone, is enough to get me to watch. She's so hot.

I agree with some others, that is would DEFFINITELY be nice to keep the same cast, though if it sticks to the graphic novel/novel close enough, it will be pretty good. All in all, the first was well done, AND close enough to keep fans happy. I am excited, both as a horror fan and Steve Niles fan. Check out "Freaks of the Heartland".

I actually enjoyed the first for real im sick of sequels when the main character actors dont come back to play the characters i hope George comes back. or even hartnett coming back as a viscious vampire going after her

I actually liked the 1st. I thoght I was going to see love stricken vamps that starkle. But 30 DAYS OF NIGHTS actually made vampires as monsters and something to really fear, something that has been lost in the more recent vamp flicks. As some one said, continuity is key. I hope they do make a sequel as good as the first.

If Melissa George doesn't return this will be an epic fail DvD release. Continuity is key. I liked the first. Not a big Vamp guy but it was interesting.

P.S. Why are people so against josh Hartnett? I know he played the exact same character in H2O that he played in the Faculty but he's a decent actor. Too bad they can't bring back Ben Foster :/

So i think they can pull it off i hope.

I thought the first one sucked and had like no direction to it whatsoever. Just a bunch of people running from place to place is all I saw.

The 1st was boss. It was a good Vampire movie and a good comic to movie transition.

I hope they dont try to put Mia Kirshner in a serious role. Wolf Lake, The Crow, The L word, she always plays the same sad little victim.
