I love the feel of it and the fact that they messed around with the characters in interesting ways added to the entertainment value. It was bloody as HELL as well which shocked me a little for a net work show.

It's just not very good -- although there are certainly worse Dracula movies out there. I saw it in hi-def, albeit not 3D... I suppose the 3D effects (which supposedly work fairly well) would enhance the experience a tad but not enough to change my opinion.

Definitely not Stoker's Drac, but at least not predictable because of that very reason. (And Kretschmann makes a better Van Helsing than Count Dracula.)Brian Lindseyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18210364932759284516noreply@blogger.com
