I’d think Netflix should do make a sequel of dayshift so we could see more in their lore

Surprised you didn’t see the Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter Easter Egg during the JJ announcement scene (1:50 in the video). It’s on the left wall where you see a portrait of Lincoln with 2 axes on each side of the portrait (his weapon) implying the events of the novel or movie happened in the movie’s world as well.

European and considered "The Boss", El Jefe could be Dracula himself

While the theory that Big John = El Jefe is pretty good, I wouldn't be surprised if Big John was someone else entirely. A Van Helsing like figure, who's lived for far longer than is evident, maybe as a hunter, who's been elongating his life to fight the vampires. This could explain how he was able to survive getting bitten AND getting away from the explosion.

my thoughts on big john is that he's a vampire, everyone knows he is but he was one the founding members of the organisation and that's why everyone trusts him so much, I think it fits better and gives a bit more depth to his character the side characters and the story overall

In Day Shiff t universe. Lincoln also a Legendary Vampire hunter may be he the one founded the union. Or it in the same universe with the movie Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter. At 1:27 you can see Lincoln painting with his axe.

@decimation9780 3 years ago

Its possible that El Jefe might be related in some way to Dracula, perhaps the one who turned Dracula into a vampire in the first place, seeing as El Jefe predates Dracula by over a century. What’s much more clear however is that unlike Audrey, he seems to be more comfortable with taking over the drug trade, rather than making himself known and taking action, probably because he realizes that vampires are outnumbered severely and should they attempt to make their existence known to the world at large, it would be a pretty simple matter for them to get hunted to extinction what with the fact that weapons tech has greatly improved over the centuries.

Dave Franco and The twins were my favorite characters. I like how they had different species of Vamps that probably originated from different regions

The vampire teeth is like the elephants tusk valuable but the only difference is the vampire teeth is the only thing that could turn someone

The Nazarian Brothers need a spinoff sequel. Scott Adkins also did that flip kick as Snoop, near the end, can't fool me, Scott's kicks are what he's famous for.

@ZathrasParadox 3 years ago

The main reason I initially watched Day Shift was to see Snoop Dogg kill vampires. But overall it's a fantastic film. :_Vamp:

@antcow1239 3 years ago

anyone notice the Abraham Lincoln painting in the union office?
Thats a vampire hunter reference

I think they didn't have enough time for the El Jefe character without having to change the story of the script , but where hoping to making make a sequel with him in it and now the union has the help of some vamps, or a new union run by big John and using vamps who do still have their human side to them? Really liked the different kinds of vampires and would be cool for more indepth backgrounds for them . The spider vampires movements were amazing the choreography was something else.
I think having some vampire films that aren't to dark or serious can be a good thing to get people back into them without it being to much. The humour is good in this film and snoop dog is great as big John and the vampires having spies as well very good film

cool little fun fact this isn't the only vampire movie Peter Stormare has been in , Peter Stormare voiced the legendary count himself Dracula in the 2005 animated movie The Batman Vs Dracula 🧛🦇:_Vamp::_Bat:

@paulocardoso3078 3 years ago

At the beginning of the video, when you talk about the reference to the director of the movie, I think there is another easter egg: the painting of Lincoln with the two axes. It seems like a reference to the movie "Abraham Lincoln, Vampire hunter".

@renegade7357 3 years ago

Seeing a picture of Abraham Lincoln was a nice fictional Easter egg.

Really, really enjoyed this movie. Love anything vampire, and having Jamie Foxx and Dave Franco made it pretty damn great. Also great 90s rap, too. Highly recommend this movie.

Also, I don't think I've written on your channel before, but I've been subscribed for a few months and really enjoy your content. One of the most entertaining channels on this platform. Keep up the great work!

Daybreakers, along with 30 Days of Night, really impressed me since they each took the extremely overdone vampire genre and were able to find a new story to tell.

@ferrievanvliet8043 3 years ago

I liked this movie a lot, came out at the right time too, cause a lot of stuff around the same time was super dissapointing or bland.

Mostly like the fact that, even though the movie felt sort of short, we had so much lore and basics on world building. I hope they expand into this universe even further with more movies or perhaps a TV series.
