REVIEWS Review by anonymous (posted on 24-Jan-2007) So the other night I was settling onto the sofa with some chocolate and a lovley warm cup of coffee and I'm channel hopping. To my delight I see that a vampire movie is on, so being the eager bat I am, I settle down to watch it. Sadly though it was not up to my expectations. The main idea in the movie was flawed, drastically. Even though I'm sure the writer thought it was a great idea, really unique and fresh, it lacks realism. Yes we all know vampires aren't real, but vampire movies should, no have to, make us think they are. Aside from my joy at seeing Nathan Fillion, there was little this movie had to offer. Dracula has sex!? No, the whole point of vampires is that, they can't do that!! Hello... Van Helsing is not only alive in our time, but has a daughter...who is also dracula's daughter... No. Just no. The music lacked any integrityy, making the already slow moving pace slower. The ending was nonsense and the vampires themselves were badly done. I didn't believe Dracula, he just bored me. A character who is supposed to strike fear into the hearts of the bravest bored me...Queen of the damned had more to offer! Bad movie. Avoid it, stick with Bram Strocker.
Do you know something we don't?
