After an artificial virus that was supposed to cure cancer has wiped out 95% of humankind and turned most of the rest into vampires, military medical researcher Will Smith is the only man left in New York, where he and his dog try to stay alive long enough to find an antidote.
Overall nicely done dark science fiction film, but what keeps it from being
on par with, say, Children of Men
are the creature effects. The vampires
look so obviously computer-generated that they do not fit into the otherwise
uncomfortably realistic setting. Makes for good action sequences (and makes me
want to take another shot at the Wii Resident Evil 4 baddies), but not really scary.
