They're Coming!

This is the story of an isolated Alaskan town that is plunged into darkness for a month each year when the sun sinks below the horizon. As the last rays of light fade, the town is attacked by a bloodthirsty gang of vampires bent on an uninterrupted orgy of destruction. Only the small town's husband-and-wife Sheriff team stand between the survivors and certain destruction.
In 30 Days of Night, consciousness is carried by monsters and creatures — a plane of “polar night vampire siege”. The story fights on E8/E9 of the E0–E14 reality ladder, compressing fear, survival, isolation, predation.
Films fighting at the same level of reality, about the same things.
