Abraham Lincoln: Vampire hunter (2012)

Film 101: What looks like a brilliant idea on paper may not yield a good script or even an entertaining flick.

Yes, Abe Lincoln is a vampire hunter in this outrageous 'hidden history' biopic. No, it seems the writers' worldbuilding had a failure of imagination (or courage).

You get what's on the box: scene after scene of Abe killing vampires. And sadly, that turns out to be very forgettable and slight.
