The Colony

I just watched this trailer by chance and it totally looks like they ripped off Arthur's back story.
Earth is in a constant winter, few survivors live in underground shelters. Of course there are no vampires--only lunatics that want to kill everyone, yeah...
Ok, influences are omnipresent in art but judging by the trailer, this seems pretty blatant. It's not the first time Hollywood took ideas from Manga/Anine (e.g. Hunger Games -> Battle Royale or some Snow White & the Huntsman scenes). Nothing wrong with that, but credit where credit is due.
