Politician by day, vampire slayer by night, Abraham Lincoln
pulls in some long hours in Abraham
Lincoln: Vampire Hunter. Based on the novel by Seth Grahame-Smith, who also
wrote Pride and Prejudice and Zombies,
the film begins with a young Abraham stopping a slaver from beating his friend
William. The plantation owner Jack Barts (Marton Csokas) punishes the Lincolns
by attacking Abraham’s mother Nancy (Robin McLeavy), killing her and setting
Abraham on a course of vengeance. Nine years later and after an unsuccessful
attack on Barts, who is revealed to be a vampire, Abraham (Benjamin Walker) is
taken under Henry Sturges’s (Dominic Cooper) tutorage. Henry teaches him how to
kill vampires and about the master vampire Adam (Rufus Sewell) who owns a
plantation in New Orleans, supplying the Southern vampires with the blood of
slaves. Abraham must avenge his mother and win the Civil War to stop the
vampires from taking over the United States.
