Four score and seven days ago a wave of movies was unleashed that shook this great nation to its core...
He's big, well pretty tall anyway. He's bad, killed more people than you can count, at least indirectly sort of. He's like 200 years old and he's back, with a vengeance, although actually he seemed like a mild mannered guy. He's Abe Lincoln and he's taking over Hollywood in 2012.

Last of the Mohicans meets the Civil War. An Irish Lincoln? No Comment
This year, Abraham Lincoln has been resurrected on the 150th anniversary of the Battle of Antietam, when he declared the Emancipation Proclamation and boy does he means business. He's out there killing Vampires, hunting down Zombies, whipping them dirty rebs and even moderating presidential debates. He's a one man killin' machine; facing down our national demons one by one - many of them literally. We haven't had a chance to see all the movies yet - we missed the Vampire Killer one while on vacation and the new Stephen Spielberg film hasn't been released yet.
I'm going to send your sparkly behinds back to Hell!
We've heard rumors that Lincoln will also appear in these upcoming features:

What's 6'4', wears a stovepipe hat and kicks Zombie ass?
There are parts to this 2012 Lincoln phenomenon we simply can't explain; such as:
- Why are they picking all these foreign actors to play Lincoln?
- Why do all actors who play Lincoln sound just like Hal Holbrook's impression of Mark Twain? (kind of like why do movie Nazis always speak British English).
- Why didn't George Washington ever kill any Zombies or Vampires?
Ok, this has nothing to do with Abe but it's a cool tune
