30 Days of Night (2007)
Vampires descend on an Alaskan town facing a month without sunrise. The idea is so good it feels stolen from someone smarter.
Actor: Ben Foster
Ben Foster specialises in characters whose instability is barely contained, in 3:10 to Yuma, The Messenger and Hell or High Water.
The Program required him to take performance-enhancing drugs to play Lance Armstrong, which he has said had lasting effects. Leave No Trace gives him a veteran living off-grid with his daughter, and it is the best and quietest thing he has done. He works regularly on Broadway.
