I have not seen all of this movie. Just the first five minutes. I feel like that's enough though. What happens? Who is Dracula in this movie? Do they stop Dracula at the end? These are important questions that you can help me with. A lot of movie reviews are spent explaining the plot or listing plot points in chronological order as they happen in the movie. I could do that if I had seen the rest of the movie- all I saw was people running through like a building from vampires or toward vampires, that or it was police chasing people cause I can also sort of remember that happening as well. Maybe that was a different movie? Things are hard to remember sometimes.

This movie has Rudger Hauer and Roy Scheider. Sounds like an amazing cast, doesn't it? Sadly both of them only show up for 2 minutes. This movies cast is nothing but mediocre.While the 2nd part had some new variations about the vampire theme, this movie has nothing new. Everything has been there before (and better). Again and again the same vampire-trash story. Evil super-mighty vampire shows up, and is killed by good half-vampire (or half-demon or something else simliar silly). Do people really like this? I despise it. There is so much potential in the vampire material, yet, most filmmakers lack creativity.

I am from Transylvania, Romania. Actually I live near Bran (30 minute by car), known as Dracula's Castle. In the Factual Errors it is stated that: "it is also an Orthodox Christian country. In the scene where the main characters approach the castle, you can see a bunch of Catholic priests impaled. You would struggle to find that many Catholic priests in all of Eastern Europe, much less in Romania alone."Totally incorrect! Because we are speaking about Transylvania (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grand_Principality_of_Transylvania) which was a part of the Austro-Hungarian empire. The biggest number of catholic religion persons from Romania is in Transylvania. Actually is quite easy to find catholic priests in these parts of Romania.Brasov, which is my city, has the Black Church, the biggest Gothic style Catholic Cathedral in Eastern Europe!You don't have to know history to check what you are saying at www.wikipedia.comAnyway, for those interested in the Dracula myth, you should read a bit more about the Medieval History of Transylvania...You would like more the myth of Dracula;and the castle is quite impressive;Personally, I would not dare to stay a night by myself in the Castle;not only because of Dracula;we have stronger demons in our culture that Dracula. Myself I am more like a Werewolf type :-) In Transylvania we still have packs of wolves that attack at night the villages in long winter nights and we have the biggest population of bears in Europe; And a lot of old superstitions about demons that travel the country side at night, even nowadays;If you ever visit Romania, enjoy Transylvania! It is the most beautiful part of Romania by far!

Everybody knows that Dracula is just a character, nothing real. Just the same, this film is pure fiction. First of all, it is not a war-zone, there are no peace-keeping forces stationed in the country. It looks more like Afganistan than Romania. Horrifying image.. Secondly, we do have roads, security cameras where the traffic is intense, internet, cable TV, cars.. like in which junkyard did they find those heaps? Besides, people here are not scared of vampires.. they are part of our folklore therefore people are not easily frightened. and providing that there was a real vampire called Dracula and he came to Romania as the one in the film did, he would have been dead long ago :) No more comments
