I miss monster movies...This style of movie along with The Mummy, bring good fun back to horror movies. And while this movie isn't perfect, its intent is. A+ for courage to do something different.
I have the movie on regular DVD, but have a playstation 3 now so all the good movies I'm getting on Blue Ray to catch the extra sound and picture quality. this movies does it all. Amazon has the best prices and with free shipping over $25 all is well. Keep up the good work Amazon.

This movie had everything it held your attention from start to finish, the great thing about it was, every monster I had ever seen as a child was in this movie.No other movie has ever given us Dracula,Frankenstein,wolf Man and Mr. Hyde. It started old World and finished modern. I loved the take on James Bond gaget inventor who was not yet quite a priest and Van Helsing's guide. Your heart just went out to the Frankenstein monster. The story line was fantastic you understood what was going on the entire time . The visual effects was exciting, but i wanted Anna valeris brother who looked a lot like Errol Flynn ,to stay alive a little longer,and it would have been great if you could have seen them clearer in the clouds at the end . But as a whole this movie was spectacular.

If you grew up on old horror movies like myself, you will really enjoy this movie! It starts out black & white and pays homage to earlier horror films. After that brief opening, it turns into a feast for your eyes and ears. The locals look colorful and beautiful...Transylvania has NEVER looked better! The cast is excellent, you can't really go wrong with Hugh Jackman & Kate Beckinsale...there's something for everyone! Lol! You have to take this movie for what it is...it's a fun summer type movie built around Dracula and Frankenstein. If you've enjoyed action packed horror movies in the past, you should enjoy this one as well. A very FUN movie experience.

Gabriel Van Helsing (Hugh Jackman - X-Men Trilogy (X-Men/ X2 - X-Men United/ X-Men - The Last Stand)) turned up on the steps of the Vatican half dead and unable to remember his past, aside from the odd dream and nightmare. Since then he has become a hunter of abnormal and supernatural beings. He does this on behalf of the "Knights of the Holy Order", a secret organisation run by the Vatican.
After "dealing" with Mr Hyde he returns to Rome and is told that his next mission will be to go to Transylvania to assist the Valerious family in conquering Count Vladislaus Dracula (Richard Roxburgh - The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen (Widescreen Edition)). If they fail to destroy Dracula they will be cursed to never enter the gates of heaven.
Van Helsing takes with him a Friar called Carl (David Wenham - Faramir in The Lord of the Rings - The Motion Picture Trilogy (Platinum Series Special Extended Edition)) who is the Order's version of Q, coming up with all of Van Helsing's gadgets, and the films comic relief.
Arriving in Transylvania they meet and team up with Anna Valerious (Kate Beckinsale - Underworld (Widescreen Special Edition)) and go in search of the way to beat Dracula.
The start of the film recreates the old black and white Frankenstein movies. Simon West's "It's alive" line was sublime for me (I am a fan of the old black and white horror films that I watched as a child). The Frankenstein monster is played by Shuler Hensley and Igor (Kevin J O'Connor - The Mummy (Widescreen Collector's Edition)).
This is the usual fun film from Stephen Sommers, in the same vein as the Mummy, etc. It does not take itself too seriously. And there is Kate Beckinsale is there in tight pants for those who like her, and Hugh Jackman and David Wenham for the rest of us.
All in all it's a great family film - fun with scary bits.
