'Lincoln the Vampire Slayer': jokes about Lincoln fighting the devil

If this film just sets the story in a virtual era, pretends to be a character, and then comes to a zombie war, perhaps people will praise the film as a masterpiece in vampire films. On the contrary, he committed a major taboo, making Lincoln, a historical and political celebrity, the biggest stunt, and also used the Civil War to demonstrate. If it's a spoof comedy, it's also reasonable, but it's serious and serious, and it's easy to confuse people about American history. The film is still sticking to the bottom line, and it didn't turn Lincoln into a vampire to make everyone scream. No wonder it was rated as one of the top ten worst films of the year by "Time Magazine", and it is reasonable, who touched the sensitive nerves of some people.

Perhaps this is due to the vague concept of Russian director Timo Bekmanbetov's concept of historical figures in the United States, thinking that any character can be arbitrarily fabricated for everyone's entertainment. Through this derogation, I hope that the director can understand that even in such an open and free country, it is the basic code of conduct for people to do things. The Sun's Watch and The Night's Watch were much praised in return. The most worrying thing is that the director may well know the "unspoken rules", but he has to use alternative means to uncover the scars that people don't want to face. If this is the case, as outsiders, we have to praise the director's foresight and shrewdness. As for the director's deep metaphors, I won't dig deeper, let the housekeepers who like history ponder and savor it again and again!

Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter quotes

  • [Henry leads Abe to the cellar of his home, to test him on what he has learned]

    Henry Sturgess: Before you protect others from darkness, you must first be able to protect yourself. Your enemies have the power to render themselves invisible. You must have the ability to fight blind. To see without seeing.

    [He shuts the door, plunging the room into darkness. There are the sounds of grunts, blows landing and Abe moaning. The door opens, revealing Abe, coughing and bloody, crawling slowly towards the door as if to leave]

    Abraham Lincoln: Again.

    [He shuts the door]

  • [Mary comes to visit Abe and Will in jail]

    Mary Todd Lincoln: I've spoken to the Senator. He'll have you out soon.

    Will Johnson: You're far too kind, Miss Todd.

    [indicates Abe]

    Will Johnson: And he's far too ugly to have a woman like you.

    Mary Todd Lincoln: [smiles] Well, I think plain-looking men are the best. It's why the Lord made so many of them.
