<P> Filming did not begin immediately , but in a September 2006 interview , executive producer Mike Richardson said that 30 Days of Night would be shot on 35 mm film , though there had been discussion to shoot the film on Genesis . In an interview prior to filming , Slade explained that the illustrations of the graphic novel 's illustrator , Ben Templesmith , would be reflected in production design . Slade also considered Nelson 's draft to be the most faithful to the graphic novel . He also stated his intention to make a `` scary vampire film '' , of which he did n't think there were many . `` The rest of them , they fall into all kinds of traps . We 're going to try to do our best ... and one of the ways we have to do it is be more naturalistic than the graphic novel , because it 's very over-the - top , '' said Slade . There was also concern expressed that while the vampires needed to communicate , talking might lessen the effect . To counter this , a fictional vampire language , with click consonants , was constructed with the help of a professor of linguistics and the nearby University of Auckland . Slade explained `` we designed this really simple language that did n't sound like any particular accent that you would be aware of , that was based around really simple actions , eating , hunting , yes , no , really basic , because that 's what vampires do .
