Daybreakers



Written & Directed by Peter Spierig, Michael Spierig
Starring: Ethan Hawke, Willem Dafoe, Sam Neill

In 2019, a major viral outburst transforms a majority of the world's population into vampires. With only a handful of humans left to provide blood for the starving population of vampires, extinction is a very real risk for the new dominant species of humanity.

The vampires are depicted as being immortal, and possessing similar physical (including chemical makeup) appearances as regular humans; therefore, they are not easily distinguishable as traditional myths portray. It is impossible to discern vampires from regular humans, unless blood samples have been extracted.

In response to the dwindling blood supply, the vampires seek to hunt and farm the remaining humans for their blood and to find a blood substitute to prolong their existence. If a vampire doesn't drink blood, then they will transform from having a recognizable human form into a violent, uncontrollable bat-like creature of the night.A secret team of once-human researchers try and uncover a way that would rescue the human race.

At the same time, small factions of surviving humans wish to repopulate the species, often using violent means to retain their humanity.
