Against the Dark is a 2009 action/horror film starring Steven Seagal and directed by Richard Crudo. In a post-apocalyptic world, destroyed by a disease, which may or may not turn people into vampires, Steven Seagal plays Tao, the leader of a squad of ex-military vigilantes who are attempting to find and rescue a group of survivors trapped in a hospital. The film was released direct to video on February 9, 2009 and was Seagal’s second release of 2009.
Plot: The film begins by revealing that a disease has taken over humanity, turning everyone into blood thirsty vampires. According to the narrator, there is no known cure and the only survivors are left in a situation where it is them “against the dark”. The first few scenes are used to establish the main characters, with Seagal playing a tough guy in charge of a group of military specialists known as “Hunters”. The survivors in the hospital are shown to be scared, isolated and untrusting. As the characters work their way through the hospital, they drift apart numerous times, often getting lost and attacked. To make matters worse for the survivors, a massive army base is planning to sterilize the area at dawn.
