Priest will involve blood, fangs, no sparkle

20 November 20092 CommentsPosted by Chris B.

As I've posted on this site before, I'm looking forward to Paul Bettany's upcoming Vampire vehicle, Priest. It should take us back to the heartening old days of anger, violence, claws, blood, and vampires with fangs. Over at SciFiWire, during the Star Trek Blu-Ray release, they got to talk to Karl Urban, who plays Black Hat in that film.

Urban was quoted as saying:

"The film is set in a post-apocalyptic vampire world at the end of generations of war between vampires and humans," Urban said. "That's where this story takes place. I think that it's going to have some pretty dark moments in it, that's for sure. Dude, it's not Twilight. I do have fangs."

This sounds great to me - I love post-apocalyptia, and Karl further went on to state that they got to shoot on the same lots that were used in Blade Runner, which is awesome beyond words. They had members of every race there, speaking native tongues, trying to prove how diverse and different the world now was.

There's also going to be some brutal action sequences (as shown by the pic), and Karl Urban supposedly stomped on Paul's fingers, cut his lip, and did other things during the intense action.

I can't wait, the theater has needed a lot more gritty action films.
