Despite its title, "Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter" looks like a serious action film in which our 16th president hunts down various blood-suckers. The title role is played by Benjamin Walker, chosen for obvious reasons following his rock-star-style role in the musical "Bloody Bloody Andrew Jackson," and the director is Timur Bekmambetov ("Wanted"). The movie comes out June 22.
