DAYBREAKERS:

Anreith, NightCrawler"Daytime fill-up available"
"The outbreak 10 years on.
Special report"
"German blood
substitute fails."
Let's be clear
about this.
Humans were offered
a chance to assimilate
but they refused.
Therefore, they are enemies
of the state and will be
captured and farmed for
blood supply.
It's a disgrace that we
have reduced human
beings to mere vessels
for blood supply.
We should be focusing on
finding a blood substitute...
We always come back to
the magic potion solution.
Where is it?
"Starving. Need blood"
With little or no population
remaining to sustain industry
other Third World countries
throughout Asia have also...
"Serving 20% blood"
CHIEF HEMATOLOGIS EDWARD DALTON - APPROVED
All the material in this
meeting is classified
Commissioner?
Death row inmate 4705-B
was a vampire selected
for a month long study
on the effects of
blood deprivation.
What?
A complete lack of human
blood over this period
resulted in a massive
deterioration of the
frontal lobe.
First signs of physical
deformities began with
elongated ears. Mental
functions such as logic,
emotion, most parts of
speech then terminated
much faster than you or
your team originally
speculated, Dr. Dalton.
Out on the streets these
creatures, these subsiders,
are becoming a real problem.
Gentlemen, we are starving.
Our latest statistics show
that less than 5% of the
human population remains.
What we're talking
about is the extinction
of the human race.
What we're talking about
is only having enough blood
to sustain our population
until the end of the month.
If a blood substitute
is not found immediately
this will happen to all of us.
Edward?
Enjoy your coffee, Sir.
Did I ever tell you about
my daughter Alison?
In early 2008 I was
diagnosed with Sarcoma.
The shock of finding out
I had cancer was one thing,
but having to tell
my daughter...
She was devastated.
I prayed for a miracle,
but was realistic.
And then the
world changed.
My prayers were answered.
Immortality gave
me my cure.
My daughter and I now
had all the time in the world.
But she saw this
evolution as a disease,
worse than any cancer.
She refused to turn.
I was a monster to her.
She ran, like so many did.
No, we are blessed, Edward.
Blessed.
And you have to stare
death in the face
to truly know that.
We are not ready
yet, Mr. Bromley.
Not a coffee drinker?
Not really.
You pity the humans,
don't you?
Well, me too.
Me too.
These are desperate
times, Edward.
We must start testing
the blood substitute.
It is the only way to
help the human race.
He wants us to move
ahead again, doesn't he?
Yeah.
Okay.
Is there any change?
Hembicillin CBC and a
biochemical panel.
All stable.
The substitute is working.
It's time to move
beyond animal testing.
You know the Vernon
Park Cemetery was
raided by a bunch
of kids last night.
They dug up a dozen
graves thinking
they'd find some
human blood.
It's nuts out there.
Now private, you may
feel a slight increase
in body temperature.
That's just the Hembicillin
entering your system,
it's to be expected.
Yes, Sir.
- How do you feel?
- No change, Sir.
Slightly more accelerated
than anticipated but...
you're fine.
Okay.
- Okay, how do you feel?
- I feel fine, Si...
Sh*t!
Come on!
Violent scenes in London
today, as police clashed
with protesters over
the controversial
new blood rationing schemes.
Demonstrators argue
that the blood allowances
are too strict and that
government bodies are
failing in their promise
to find alternatives.
Similar scenes have been
occurring across Asia
and the Middle East
in recent times.
crime is on the rise
with a staggering
confronted by subsider
activity in the last month.
Oh, sh*t!
F***.
You alright?
- What are you doing?
- Get back!
- Don't come any closer!
- Shoot him again!
Don't!
- You're human.
- Shoot!
Don't shoot me again!
Listen, I can help you.
Come on! Get in my car.
I'll help you! Come on!
Let me help you!
Get in my car!
Come on. Come on!
Come on, get in.
It's alright.
"Daytime Driving Mode
ACTIVATED"
Daytime protection and
driving mode:
Activated.Car 51 at location.
Sh*t.
- You okay, Sir?
- Yeah, I'm okay.
Did you get a good
look at them, Sir?
No, not really.
It happened so fast.
They didn't wait around
to see how I was.
We believe they
may be humans, Sir.
Did you see where
they went?
I think they went that way.
You take care, Sir.
Thank you.
- Are you okay?
- Yeah.
See you around.
Somehow I doubt that.
Happy birthday, Ed.
This is a community health
and safety announcement.
There is now one hour
until sunrise.
10 years after the 2009 outbreak
vampiric wildlife
wandering into sunlight
has become the number
one cause of forest fires
throughout the nation.
The total national
wildlife feeding ban
has not deterred
people from venturing...
Linking homes and businesses
wide across the city
The Subwalk tunnel network
is the safest way to walk
around during daylight.
Subwalk - Protection under sun
Having your car modified
for daytime driving
shouldn't cost you the Earth.
Security alert:
Backdoor ajar.Frankie.
Hey, Ed.
I hardly recognized you.
It's only been a few months.
I got something for you.
What's this?
What the f*** do
you think it is?
Some birthday party, bro.
Yeah. Well, I've turned
thirty-five ten times.
Birthdays are pointless.
Bullshit!
Let's have a drink.
It smells human.
That's one of the perks
of serving your country.
I hear even that
pig sh*t you drink
is getting hard to find.
I can't.
F*** that.
You need it.
Yeah, well...
Life is a b*tch and...
then you don't die.
Come on.
I don't touch human blood.
You don't touch human blood.
You work for a company that
uses humans like f***in' cattle.
Don't tell me how to live
my life, little brother.
Then don't act all high
and mighty, big brother.
Look Ed, your company
working on some type of
fake blood, that's one thing,
but we all know that
their money comes from
farming humans.
Are we going to pick up from
exactly where we left off?
I don't hunt humans.
That is your job.
I find them. You farm them.
All right. Well...
- Let's just dump this sh*t.
- Nothing changes, does it?
Does it?
You still don't get
why I joined.
What happens...
when there isn't
a single drop left?
When there isn't
a single human?
-A single anything?
-We will always find more.
A blood substitute means
the end of human hunting.
Fake blood. Doesn't
mean the end of sh*t.
Well, if I believed that,
let me drive a stake
through my heart
right now.
Sh*t!
Frankie. Frankie.
Sh*t!
Oh, my God!
Frankie.
Frankie.
Frankie.
This is the third home invasion
in this area in the last month.
These things are
in the suburbs now.
So...
it's important that you
update your security.
Subsiders. Strong bastards.
