So, Abraham Lincoln is a vampire hunter in this movie......?? Huh, this sounds pretty interesting. Can't wait for the trailer.

Stay EPIC, my friends!
CorndogBurglar - 12/15/2011, 1:54 PM
HA! Yes! This book was even better than Pride and Prejudice and Zombies.

Cannot wait for this. Good stuff.

I haven't read the book, but I'm rather excited about this movie. Always been researching the life of Lincoln, and the storyline sounds VERY promising. Hope it's gonna be done right.

@teabag
LOL!!!!
ThePhantom1 - 12/15/2011, 2:21 PM
Interesting concept
Priest - 12/15/2011, 2:22 PM
I am not sure if this movie is a good idea. Seems kinda insulting.
JULES - 12/15/2011, 2:23 PM

Godzillafart - 12/15/2011, 2:25 PM

bellEND - 12/15/2011, 2:32 PM
I want to watch Teabags Bill Clinton movie, with three bottles of KY and a glove.
StrangerX - 12/15/2011, 2:32 PM
Just bought the book can't wait for this.
Fastestmanalive - 12/15/2011, 2:35 PM
Sounds weird, whoever thought of this idea? I mean how do u come up with two things that have no connection?

But still Im not complaining, sounds cool, especially with Burton at the helm, weird but cool.
ecksmanfan - 12/15/2011, 2:36 PM
I was hoping for the pic from the back cover of the book, but that is still pretty cool
RaleighAntrobus - 12/15/2011, 2:37 PM
They should follow this up with...

MARTIN LUTHER KING, JR.: ZOMBIE KILLER
PapaMidnight - 12/15/2011, 2:47 PM
Abraham Lincoln is a vampire hunter in this movie?? The oposite way would be more plausible: him playing a vampire!
TheAmarilloBlack - 12/15/2011, 2:49 PM
"Wanted" dude did this?! Hmmm...could be dope. Nice contrast to Schpiealburg's "Abe" or whatever.
nuck82 - 12/15/2011, 2:50 PM
woodrow wilson: peace maker...... nothing like some good wood to make people happy
Ghostfire - 12/15/2011, 2:53 PM
@Tea
So when can we expect this MILF hunter flick?

Is the book any good? Because I've beeen tempted to get it but I'm not sure if its worth it.
JimboRed - 12/15/2011, 3:04 PM
Based upon my informal poll with coworkers and non nerdy friends, I think this movie is going to flop. It might be good, I just don't think people are going to accept the concept.
Bandrews1 - 12/15/2011, 3:10 PM
Hmmm not bad.
aRandomSinisterClone - 12/15/2011, 3:27 PM
As a professional photographer, cutting n pasting the subject to diff backgrounds is cheesy. I can't wait for this movie, but pic a poster, not both w the same subject n diff backgrounds.
Ghostfire - 12/15/2011, 3:27 PM
@Tea
Shit! I got my hopes up!
SuspenseSmith - 12/15/2011, 3:37 PM
I swear, this has got to be the oddest premise ever.
marcvader1 - 12/15/2011, 3:45 PM
Bizarre
esoules84 - 12/15/2011, 3:45 PM
I wasn't sure if this would translate to film...but that first poster has got me stoked
mrHJK - 12/15/2011, 3:51 PM
This movie is gonna be sick
twagoo - 12/15/2011, 3:59 PM
I am sooooo looking forward to seeing this! The book is great! Hope the movie will do justice to it!
InnerVenom123 - 12/15/2011, 4:24 PM
[frick] yeah.
headlopper - 12/15/2011, 4:27 PM
Are vampires Yankees or Confederates?
AlexDeLarge87 - 12/15/2011, 4:48 PM
Tea@ lol xD

Never read the book but this looks interesting.
Plus it has Mary Elizabeth Winstead as Lincoln´s wife and Rufus Sewell as the bad guy so it should be cool then.
RunDTC - 12/15/2011, 5:00 PM
again, this has nothing to do with CBMs
SuspenseSmith - 12/15/2011, 5:21 PM

@SuspenseSmith: apparently not. anyone not named nailbiter, JoshW, DCMarvelFreshman, WolvieCBM, or Ror gets their news article pulled.

Super gay. And I do mean homosexual gay.
SuperSpiderMan5778 - 12/15/2011, 7:44 PM
never read the books. i think the concept is stupid but who knows...i might still watch it
InstigatorGIRL - 12/16/2011, 3:27 AM
Wow... these posters are extremely underwhelming. =/
InstigatorGIRL - 12/16/2011, 3:37 AM
Also, while I think this IS front page worthy, I just wanted to say that "Pride & Prejudice & Zombies" was adapted into a graphic novel but "Abraham Lincoln Vampire Hunter" was not. =)
BmanHall - 12/16/2011, 6:56 AM
Wow, never heard of this before. Tim Burton directing? Hmm, Sounds like it could be good.
GUNSMITH - 12/16/2011, 8:46 AM
