Drácula - O Príncipe Das Trevas

right of the bat this is a rape of a classic love story with after school special violence, skimpy costumes, poorly written characters, fake looking sets, and in many cases just plain bad acting, needless to say i did not enjoy what i saw one single bit

and why the hell is the Liech king(Wrath) from war-craft one of Dracula's minions?

all movies has their audience, and this one is directed towards children, and hillbilly's born with 6 fingers on each hand (the only reasonable explanation for the brief nudity in Dracula's castle)

there are a lot of question raised around why anyone would make certain decisions during the production of this made for TV movie.

-10/10 not even worthy of ironic appreciation

This is a low budget film about how Dracula came to be after his love, Elizabeth, was murdered. After his change, he sets his mind to finding the "Lightbringer", the scythe that Cain used to kill his brother Abel. It is with this scythe that Dracula, a descendant of Abel, will be able to prevent death to anyone he chooses essentially making himself a god. He runs into a problem when he finds what he believes to be the reincarnation of Elizabeth in Alina, a demon slaying woman. He tries to woo her into remembering the life they once shared while a group of Alina's fellow demon slayers both search for her and seek to kill Dracula.

I liked it. That's not to say that it didn't need work but overall I found the story interesting. Again, it is low budget so you get so-so acting, shaky scripting and action that needs some choreographic help. I've seen much worse though. This is one that you just have to give it a chance to play out all the way and then make your decision as to how good you think it is.

The title describe how bad the acting are and how clueless & dumb these actor looks like in the movie. Even the movies by The Asylum have better acting & story writing than these film. The movie is on low budget, no doubt about that so I will put that aside and review it as a low budget film instead of the big ones.

To tell the truth, if you expect an action-packed movie about vampire slayer, then you will be disappointed with how crappy the choreography is. The fighting scene are so bad that I rather label it as romantic/fantasy than an action/fantasy. But the story is quite unique in the way it tries to explore the human side of the vampire rather than just focusing on the evil side. An of course there are romantic part of it that I found more enjoyable to watch rather than the rest of the movie.

To summarize it, watching this movie feels like putting a knife on my stomach, stab it in and slicing my stomach open as I make a horizontal cut. I've never committed seppuku before, but after watching this movie I know how it feels like.

I give 3 star because the romantic part of it are convincing, the story are unique compared to other vampire movie and lastly because the actress who play Alina is hot.

It would be a good movie if:

• Had no unnecessary nudity;

• The clothes were more appropriate to the time and more rustic;

• Women do not appear with a look from a beauty salon (much production in the face and hair);

• The younger actors seem to have left the Glee show.

The story became very different, it was not bad, just different.

The production is modest, within the available budget. Being a super production is not mandatory and does not guarantee a good movie.

The film has some good actors, yes. And it's easy to see who they are, the more experienced and less exaggerated.

Ok, so we have a mashup of low budget medieval adventure and Beauty and the Beast but with vampires.

Lets not forget the terrible costume design, the way they ripped off Dracula's look from Castlevania and the soft porn scenes that add nothing to the plot.

If you are like me and will watch any tv show/movie with vampires just for the sake of it then go ahead. But if you are looking for a good adventure/horror movie just skip this one.
