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

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.

Is the main actress hot? Does it really matter to the movie watching experience you are about to have? The first question I think most will tend to answer with a yes. The second one though ... well I don't think many will swing to a yes vote for that. The CGI is not really great, but that is to be expected with the budget this movie has. It does look like a million other movies with a C-budget (or is it D?).

The fact that they can release this under the Dracula banner is almost an insult I guess. Especially when you think that really good movies had no rights to the name (see Nosferatu amongst others). But if you really have too much time and love those sorts of movies, I won't stop you from watching it. Don't say I didn't warn you (and you waved it away like all those traveling through Transylvania)

One thing that can be said confidently is that there has never been any shortage of Dracula themed movies. Even after Hammer Horror were laid to rest we got wall to wall films cashing in on the popularity of the worlds favorite Transylvanian.

This is one of those efforts that presents him as almost an anti-hero, forced into the darkness through anger at the loss of his true love.

Trouble is this one simply isn't very good, it's a combination of classic mythology and modern nonsense that simply doesn't work.

It looks shoddy, it sounds poor and poor Jon Voight looks very out of place.

With a blonde dracula, practically no bites/blood/vamperic action and more Christian references than a priest could shake his tallywacker at this is a poor piece of Dracula cinema.

The Good:

A few decent designs here and there

The Bad:

Far too much christianity

Incredibly dull

Things I Learnt From This Movie:

Jon Voight must have lost a bet
