What happens

The 30 Days of Night franchise consists of American horror installments including a theatrical film, a prequel miniseries, a sequel limited series, and a direct-to-home video sequel movie. Based on the comic series of the same name created by Steve Niles and Ben Templesmith, the plot centers around an unsuspecting Alaskan town in the US that is overtaken by a swarm of vampires during a thirty-day polar night period of time. Throughout the franchise, townspeople fight through the events to defeat the mystical creatures with all their resources to survive. The franchise has been met with an overall mixed critical reception. The first movie though initially poorly received, has since received praise in modern analysis and earned its status as a horror classic. In contrast, its sequel and the limited series expansions which included the involvement of franchise creator Steve Niles, had greater negative critical reviews. Financially, the franchise turned a profit for the studio at the box office. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
