The new 8-Bitham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter video game is full of nostalgic video game violence pitting Presidents against the army of darkness. The video game is in fact a short video made by YouTube user freddiew in light of the upcoming Abraham Lincoln Vampire Hunter movie.
The video is fashioned after old school arcade games like Gauntlet Legend and The Simpsons Video Game. Filled with special attacks, a retro soundtrack, bonus levels and 8-bit Gore, 8-Bitham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter would definitely have been a cult classic had it come out in the 80s.
Covering three levels and one bonus level, the video is basically a summary of the upcoming Hollywood Blockbuster based on the book of the same name. Vampires don't appear to be going anywhere in terms of pop culture craze, but Presidential bad asses are doing their best to rid the world of their presence.
