Oh my...  I was in stitches as I watched that.  It looks so very bad.... yet somehow fun, dare I say it.  I absolutely howled though at a couple of shots, after swearing that they looked rather familiar to LoS2's cinematic trailer.

Edit:  Lmao!  Apparently, Baba Yaga even appears in it.

Looks like your average summer blockbuster. Go to the theater without your brain and enjoy.

Nice to see the Bat Company employed again after DoS!

It seems that Coppola will always be the classic and the best.

I might see it when it comes out. At least, we get a very "human" vampire protagonist without it going "twilight" on us. And yes, it does seem to parallel the LoS saga. It's your typical tragic tale of trying to protect yourself and loved ones and losing your humanity as a result. It's the old "road to Hell is paved with good intentions" thing.

What I'd like to see is if the Dracula in this movie becomes completely evil like Gabriel did in LoS saga, or if he retains a sense of "humanity".

As corny as it seems, one thing I do like.... It's Vlad Tepes ... becoming Dracula. Wish the Castlevania series kept it THAT simple.

Its like looking into a window and seeing bizzaro world where LoS didn't end up as such a big dissapointment

If you really liked that film, you would know it's 'Helsing', not 'Hellsing'.
Hellsing (purposely misspelled) is an anime series.

Correction, there are TWO HELLSING ANIMES. You've got Hellsing and Hellsing Ultimate. Hellsing Ultimate follows the manga. Hellsing, while using most of the main characters, does NOT.

Correction:
That's not a correction, that's an addendum/expansion.

You are right, Mr. Fuentes. This is my third mispell here in the forums :-[. Thanks for the correction. It seems is just a single letter in a word, but its necessary to change the context.

But yes, I am referring to the movie, not the anime.

Not to deviate, but has anybody else seen the Showtime series Penny Dreadful? This is the similar tone I'd love a CV movie(or series) to be like. And, extra points for being set in the Victorian era!!
