The vampire-themed web series ‘Tooth Pari’ starring Tanya Maniktala and Shantanu Maheshwari recently started streaming on Netflix. Irrespective of whether you liked the show or not, and if you are fond of vampire-based content, then we have a must-watch yet underrated recommendation for you. We suggest you give a chance to the Hollywood sci-fi horror movie titled ‘Daybreakers’, which is currently streaming in India on the Lionsgate Play OTT platform.
Set in an alternate future, ‘Daybreakers’ takes place in a world where most of the human population has been transformed into vampires. The blood supply shortage triggers panic among the dominant vampire race. That’s when two humans Lionel (Willem Dafoe) and Audrey (Claudia Karvan), who claim to have a cure for the plague, team up with a sympathetic vampire haematologist Edward (Ethan Hawke), who is looking for a substitute for blood. The movie also features Sam Neill in an important role.
‘Daybreakers’, which came out in the year 2009, is a visually opulent and well-crafted film and a must-watch for genre fans because it’s quite different from the rest of the regular vampire movies. Another interesting thing about the film is that it has been directed by The Spierig Brothers, the filmmaker duo who went on to direct the widely acclaimed mind-bending sci-fi thriller movie ‘Predestination’ (also starring Ethan Hawke).
In case you are a fan of the vampire horror genre, then you should try watching ‘Daybreakers’ on OTT. In case you are still unsure of it, then you can first watch the movie’s trailer to get a better idea about it.
