Today has been a crazy day for movies images. In the last few hours we've gotten looks at Dog Fight, Magic Mike, Dark Shadows, The Amazing Spider-Man, The Expendables 2, Mirror Mirror, The Hunger Games, The Dark Knight Rises and Man of Steel. That's pretty nuts by itself, but the day isn't done yet. With Entertainment Weekly's 2012 preview set to hit shelves tomorrow, the leaked photos keep pouring in, and now we have a new look at the Timur Bekmambetov-directed adaptation of Seth Grahame-Smith's Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter.

The new image comes to us via Upcoming Horror Films and you can check it out below and see it full size over there.

While we have gotten other looks at the film, such as this still which was released just last week, this is actually the best shot we've seen of Benjamin Walker in his full Lincoln makeup. While he's not wearing his classic stove-pipe hat, I'll be damned if this doesn't look exactly like our 16th president.

Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter tells an alternate tale about one of our nations greatest leaders, by telling the tale about his adventures in killing the undead. Joining Walker in the cast is Mary Elizabeth Winstead, Dominic Cooper, Anthony Mackie, Jimmi Simpson, Rufus Sewell, and Alan Tudyk. The film will be released on June 22 and for more check out our Blend Film Database.
