Comic Movies Opening This Weekend, October 19

You’ve probably heard that 30 Days of Night is opening this weekend, based on the comic franchise of the same name. (10-Second Comic Review: clever concept, paled quickly, most memorable to me because I sold my original miniseries copies on ebay for over $100.) Movie reviews are all over the board, with horror fans seeming much more charitable than those from the general audience. I won’t be seeing it.

What am I interested in seeing, if it comes to my area when it opens nationwide in two weeks, is Wristcutters: A Love Story, since it’s based on the same source material as Pizzeria Kamikaze, a graphic novel I enjoyed. The NY Times review is intriguing, too.
