I'm not particularly big on Hayden Christensen's abilities as an actor. I often feel he's gotten where he is on the strength of a pretty face and some damn good luck. But, I make up for only one man's opinion, and if that opinion can be changed, I'm all for it. Taking a gander at the trailer for his upcoming feature Vanishing On 7th Street, there may just be hope.

Vanishing On 7th Street tells the story of a man who makes one morning to discover everyone has disappeared. Even worse, the sun is vanishing. To make things even worse than that, he realizes he's got to stay in the light if he hopes to have any chance of staying alive.

Synopsis: When a massive power blackout causes the population to inexplicably vanish, a small handful of survivors band together inside a desolate tavern struggling to survive as the darkness hones in on them. From director Brad Anderson ("The Machinist," "Transsiberian") comes an apocalyptic thriller with a terrifying vision of our world's end and a story that wrestles with the nature of existence itself.
