This is gonna be hilarious...if done right.

[Mesousa]

This. Is.

FREAKING EPIC! :D

This is possibly the best idea for a movie in almost forever! No, I'm not joking. :p

[JTurner954]

I hate vampires in general, but if this is on par with Lincoln's fight with zombies and werewolves (http://alternacomics.com/#/jesus-hates-zombies-jhzlhw-v2/4535894829), then I'll be in line for this on opening day.

[jph139]

Aww, I thought this was based on the comic book - "Jesus Hates Zombies" and it's side-story, "Lincoln Hates Werewolves."

...

This is good, too, though. I'm up for it. I like Lincoln, I like vampires, I like the idea of ahistorical scenarios full of mythological creatures. So all three is good too.

[purplehairedwonder]

This sounds fantastic. If played right, this could be brilliant.

Also, totally didn't know the movie rights had been picked up for Pride and Prejudice and Zombies. Can't wait for that, tehehehe.

Okay, first Pride and Prejudice and Zombies, then Sense and Sensibility and Sea Monsters, and now Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter. (There's even a Robin Hood: Zombie Killer and Huckleberry Finn and Zombie Jim out there, too!) So what the heck started this whole craze of injecting zombies and other creatures of the night into these historical settings? It's like all these books just suddenly showed up overnight or something.

[Drifballoon]

This sounds like one of the most epic concepts ever! I've got to see this :D

[Old Guy]

Hopefully you guys checked this out:

[CartoonOverlord]

I'd watch it.:p

[Spaceman]

Sounds promising, though it would be rather funny (and sad) if this makes it to theatres before Spielberg's long-gestating Lincoln biopic.

These things were probably out there, it's just that no one noticed them until Pride and Prejudice and Zombies took off.

The question is: when is something like this going to be done with Frankenstein's monster? :D

There is even Death Troopers! Star Wars + Zombies!

I got that for Christmas, actually, but haven't had a chance to get to it yet. :)

[Hanshotfirst113]

That was the ultimate double-take.

[RonDrakenfan17]

This is a LOL title.
I don't know what to think about this one :p

[Marvin Tikvah]

I'm not a big fan of this series of inserting cinema monsters into classic literature. It just seems so lowbrow and somewhat lazy.

As movies? That might work a bit better.

[SirLemming]

You'd think I would be tired of this kind of humor by now, but for some reason... I'm not. Bring on Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter.

[Daxdiv]

The trailer actually looked interesting, I can't wait to see what this looks like in movie form.

[Rick Jones]

This kinda makes me wish that more was done with Amazing Screw-On Head than just that SyFy pilot.
