This may not be the Twilight era anymore, but Netflix still reminds viewers that vampires can be cool. The streamer has released a new trailer for their upcoming movie Day Shift. The movie is an action-comedy featuring Jamie Foxx as a vampire hunter who just wants to make a steady living.

The trailer opens with Foxx's character going from his cover job as a pool cleaner to his main job as a vampire hunter, before easing into a violent, action-packed sequence of Foxx taking down a vampire. Viewers also get a glimpse at Dave Franco's character as Foxx tells him what they're doing. The trailer then reveals that Foxx doesn't just hunt vampires for fun – he needs the paycheck to help keep his family together. However, he can't do it alone, and he turns to another person (Snoop Dogg) to re-gain access into a vampire hunter's union. As the trailer continues, a variety of other vampire-hunting scenes are shown, mixed with humorous interludes featuring Foxx and Franco.

Based on the trailer, viewers can expect a gloriously bloody, high-octane movie that doesn't hold back. It showcases the sort of gore viewers can expect, and also the several ways one can kill a vampire. Within those snippets are also moments filled with laughs, as well as emotional scenes as Foxx's character scrapes together money for his wife and daughter. The trailer promises a movie worth watching as the beginning title cards present a movie "from the guys who taught John Wick how to kick ass."
