Daybreakers (2009)

Daybreakers is a 2009 Australian-American science-fiction action horror film written and directed by Michael and Peter Spierig. The film takes place in the year 2019, ten years after a plague has turned most of the Human race into vampires. Uninfected Humans are rounded up and farmed for blood, which is in critically short supply. Ethan Hawke plays Edward Dalton, a vampire scientist who hates his condition and is researching a synthetic blood substitute. Dalton encounters a group of Human survivors led by "Elvis" (Willem Dafoe), a former vampire who claims to know of a cure for vampirism.

The following weapons were used in the film Daybreakers:


Glock 34

When Dr. Edward Dalton (Ethan Hawke) arrives at Bromley Marks near the end of the film, two security guards draw Glock 34s and train them on him briefly.

Heckler & Koch MP5

MP5A3s (along with a few MP5A2s) are used as the standard weapon for the vampire soldiers, they are all fitted with some sort of underbarrel launcher and fire tranquilizer rounds since their main job is to hunt down remaining Humans to harvest their blood. They typically have CCOs mounted on them or green laser sights (which actually help them aim since they can only view daylight scenes through video cameras mounted on their helmets).
