‘Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter 3D’ features bland, unappealing hero

Blame it on 'Twilight'. Author Seth Grahame-Smith seized upon the idea for ‘Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter’ during a promotional book tour for his 2009 parody 'Pride And Prejudice And Zombies'.

It was the year marking the bicentenary of Lincoln’s birth and authors Stephenie Meyer and Charlaine Harris were riding high in the best-seller lists with their 'Twilight' and 'The Southern Vampire Mysteries' books.
