Daylight's End (2016)
Not Rated
Starring Johnny Strong, Lance Henriksen, Louis Mandylor, Chelsea Edmundson
Directed by William Kaufman
The Story:
A drifter (Strong) saves a cop (Edmundson) from an ambush that kills her partner. She takes him back to the police precinct promising him a car and all the gas/food he needs to be on his way. However, they are trying to escape to a sanctuary to get away from the bloodthirsty savages that lurk in the shadows.
File this one under wanting to make a budget horror end of the world film but they couldn't choose between zombies or vampires, so they kind of combined the two into one.
That way you can get the best of both worlds without working too hard.
Throw in a dash of Mad Max, Assault on Precinct 13, I Am Legend, videogames and just about whatever else you can think of, and this movie has got you covered.
Henriksen of course is the face and name you recognize.
Everyone else in the cast is competent, but no names or faces that I recognized.
It could have used a little more tweaking and originality and a bit less borrowing from everything else, but it was good enough to keep my interest.
Final Grade: C
