Sinopsis
Filmed as if through the president's own eyes, Lincoln goes deeper than any documentary has before to reveal the troubled depths behind the man known as the Great Emancipator.
Indiana, 1818. La luz de la luna cae a través de los densos bosques que rodean una cabaña, donde un niño de nueve años llamado Abraham Lincoln se arrodilla junto a la cama de su madre que sufre. Ella ha sido atacada por algo que los lugareños llaman "Enfermedad de la Leche". Mi niño... susurra antes de morir. Más tarde, el niño se da cuenta de que la enfermedad mortal de su madre era en realidad obra de un vampiro. A partir de ese momento, el niño comienza un diario, y se propone ser un maestro de la mente y el cuerpo, con un sólo objetivo: Emprender un camino de venganza que le llevará a la Casa Blanca.
En 1865, mientras la Guerra Civil Americana se acerca a su fin, el presidente Abraham Lincoln propone una enmienda que prohíba la esclavitud en los Estados Unidos. Sin embargo esto plantea un gran dilema: si la paz llega antes de que se apruebe la enmienda, el Sur tendrá poder para rechazarla y mantener la esclavitud; si la paz llega después, decenas de miles de personas seguirán muriendo en el frente. En una carrera contrarreloj para conseguir los votos necesarios, Lincoln se enfrenta a la mayor crisis de conciencia de su vida.

In the small town of Ottawa, Illinois, where a rumor can spread like the plague and nobody's business is their own, six friends decide to change their weekly routine of watching movies in the basement and talking shit, to go out for a night on the town. On most nights this wouldn't be that taxing. But tonight isn't most nights. With rumors of the police commissioner's alleged disappearance circulating, and the mayor enacting a strict curfew, it doesn't take long for things to spiral out of control and the whole town to go mad. Is it just hysteria? Is it a curse? Is it Abraham Lincoln's fault? Nobody knows. But for the gang, only one thing is certain. They should have NEVER left the basement.
