Trivia
2012 Guide Analysis: "The first of Seth Grahame-Smith's works to hit the screen sounds like a slightly more familiar (and digestible) bit of nonsense than his "Pride and Prejudice and Zombies". Here is a story that re-imagines President Lincoln to have a secret identity as a vampire killer who seeks the beast that killed his mother.
With a fairly restrained $69 million budget, Tim Burton producing and "Wanted" director Timur Bekmambetov helming, it will hopefully prove better than expected - the choice of stage actor Benjamin Walker is a smart one (check out his great work in the zero-budget indie "The War Boys") as he seems poised to break out."
