| Summary: | When a team of techno-savvy thieves break into a high security vault, they don't discover priceless works of art... they find a crypt unopened for 100 years! Suddenly, the ancient terror of Dracula (Gerard Butler) is unleashed, and his first destination is America and the exotic city of New Orleans - a place where he feels right at home. Not far behind, however is a vampire hunter (Jonny Lee Miller) from London determined to save a young woman (Justine Waddell) with whom Dracula shares his dark legacy! | ||
short review: Yes, that's the way a good and modern vampire-movie should be done! A high-budget production on up to date Hollywood standards, very nice pictures and a good story-line. But most of all you'll find a true master- vampire here - he's strong and powerful, charming, seductive and ruthless. Wish there were more films out there like this one!  |
