30 Days of Night author Steve Niles conceived of the story in the form of a comic, but after meeting a lack of interest in initial pitches, tried to pitch it as a film. When this did not work out, Niles shelved the idea until he showed it to IDW Publishing. IDW published the comic and Ben Templesmith provided the artwork. When Niles and his agent, Jon Levin, shopped the comic around again as a potential film adaptation, Niles found that the idea "went shockingly well," with Sam Raimi and Senator International picking up the property rights based on the original concept and Templesmith's unique mood and concepts for the vampires.

The film is stupid and full of plot absurdities, but I still like it. It’s a pity that the authors couldn’t properly use their own idea of survival during the polar night – the passage of time is not felt at all here, and the heroes’ hiding from a gang of ghouls looked dubious.
A non-trivial horror film in terms of concept, which, nevertheless, did not avoid several not very significant flaws. Which, however, are compensated by the original setting, frightening vampires and strong, very uncompromising direction.
A horror movie about vampires, filmed in the spirit of the genre zombie apocalypse. The idea and the setting are great, there are original moments, but for the most part the film is rather bland and filled with cliches. The vampires are gorgeous, some of the best I’ve seen.
