What Parents Need to Know
About 30 Days of Night
Parents need to know that this vampire horror movie (which was based on a graphic novel) isn't for kids. While the themes aren't especially sophisticated, the imagery is very bloody, with bodies getting torn, beaten, chewed, and graphically abused. Children are in danger and killed (one is a bloody-mouthed vampire who's eventually slain by an adolescent boy), and there are explosions, car crashes, shootings, foot chases, and lots of tense scenes. Language includes several uses of "f--k" and other profanity, there's some drinking, and a grandmother grows medicinal marijuana.

Gory? Yes. Great? No, but still decent.
Just watched the movie. Very violent and gory, but not to the point where it feels perverse. The most graphic decapitation I've ever seen and a good bit of profanity, too. Nothing a mature teen can't handle. Not the most original movie ever, but still a good thriller that's worth watching for some nice scares.

NOT a kids movie
I saw this on cable and was surprised that it was pretty good. The issue is the repeted gore throughout the movie. Up there with Hostle and Saw.I'm not bothered by that stuff but this movie almost goes overboard.If you like that kind of flick you will like this.

omg scary!!!
omg i was sooo scared wen i watched this. i was alone. i was sick (sore throat). and it was at night when no one else was home. i turned it on in the middle and the first thing i see: bloddy head. then a littl e 6 yr old vampire get her head chopped of. THEN there are like people in a bed and all you can see are outlines of heads. i was like 'dont pull off the sheet!!!' then i turned it off because i was so darn scared!!! like 14 and up very gore-y. oh and also the guy get his head smushed when a vampire puts his foot on his head then - pushes down.bloody!!! and a guy gets chopped in half.

Not the Least bit Scary
I saw this movie when I was 12 and it wasn't scary in the least. There was a brutal murder of some sort every minute or so for a while after the sun goes down, but it went as any horror movie does. I think it's fine for ages 12 and up.

Graphic yet amazing!
This movie was great. The ending was very unexpected. It makes me cry everytime and when I cry it means it's a good movie. The plot was good. Plus the guy is a cutie. It's not good for children under the age of 15. I'm 16. and this movie has got me buy chain. I Love It!

An adult version of Twilight, but worse.
I seen this movie last weekend for Halloween. In, the beginning automatically, it's scary. Tons of blood. Is a very good vampire movie, but I am more interested in Twilight. This movie is rated R, but on some terms it's basically knowing your kid and if they can take the blood, or flesh being burned right in front of your face on screen. I normally don't get nightmares, but had them for about 2 days. Not really scary, just tons of blood and curssing.

Vampire-iffic
If you like vampires this movie is great. The make-up and costume really made it go from scary to eerie. My 15 year old likes zombies and vampire shows and we like scary shows so it was a thumbs up for us. My 9 year old likes them to but it's too bloody for children, so we opted not to take him, and that was the right decision. If you like action and more exciting vampires than the norm, you will love it too.

good fright
Very frightening film. Well acted with genuine suspence. Terrible ending, however. And not a film for kids.

Great Vampire Horror
I enjoyed the plot and storyline. The unique Alaskan winter setting, where the sun doesn't come up for 30 days, really adds a frightening dimension to the movie. Vampires were portrayed in their most simplest and barbaric state, with very little need for lengthy dialogue, which is quite appropriate for their characters. I would not recommend this movie for younger viewers, as it is very graphically violent. However, I do appreciate the bird's eye camera view of vampires attacking Barrow's citizens. It added to the horror. This is a great horror flick. Just when you thought that you've seen every type of vampire movie and that there couldn't be any more variety, this flick refreshes and renews the vampire movie genre. I highly recommend it for adults.

A must for any one who loves vampire movies
Great movie. Scared me. Don't let young children see this.

Amazing but Gory
I absolutely love horror movies and this movie completely fueled that. It was rather gory but the storyline was amazing and the make up and comstuming really help you believe in the vampires. I would caution against taking any kids younger than 16 to this movie, unless you know they're okay with the gore. It does have an underlying story between the main character, his soon to be ex-wife and his younger brother. While i didn't like the ending at least it kept true to the graphic novels.

Pretty stupid and boring
This movie wasn't that great it was really bloody and violent but if your kids are 15 or older and mature enough to handle these kind of movies then let them go see it but it isn't a very good movie. So i'd wait for the DVD if you really want to see it.
