SkyNet, trust me...this movie was absolutely horrible. If it were on late night TV sometime, I'd just go to bed...

I'll be sure to take a big shit on every copy i see.

while catching it in full theatrical experience, i can see it was a test of my patience. 2/10 (the girls are hot)

Awful film, but Dracula's brides are hot, and Kate didn't look too bad herself in some parts.

3/10 tops, Hugh was terrible, but Dracula made it worthwhile in the scenes that Helsing wasn't in.

I'm one of the few folks who saw this as a guilty pleasure, but I can't see any reason to buy this.

So just because one doesn't like this movie they're artsy cinematic elitists? Please. I'm nowhere near an elitist, nor do I hold art/independent films above all and I HATED this movie. It raped the classic universal monster and was more like a Saturday morning cartoon. I'm saving my money for MONSTER SQUAD. Now THAT'S great fun.

The 3-Disc set will fit nicely next to my copys of The Mummy - Ultimate Edition and The Mummy Returns. I'm a sucker for FX driven summer popcorn flicks.
