...which raises the question: "why have you done that?" are there vampires in your neighborhood? thinking of a carreer change? :D-->

If I actually expected to USE that information, I'd know a lot more than

just "a little".

I know about some of that because, as an RPGer, I've read various game

sourcebooks and descriptions both of legends and weapons of various types.

Also, I've read some fiction involving vampire hunters here and there.

None are required to conform to each others' stories or legends, BTW.

Besides, EVERY monster is vulnerable to FIRE. Napalm smells like victory

when fighting them.... :)-->

Yes, and some fiction writers make it a point to be as accurate on

weapon use as possible, as well.

I for one was not impressed.

Nice action with Mr Hyde at the beginning, then a long boring stretch until more action. Yawn.

The scene in the Vatican basement seemed really rushed.

Did Hugh Jackman leave his personality on the X-Men set?

Oh, and thanks for almost having Dracula explain why Van H is alive after 400 years and then NOT explaining it -->

Saw it...thought it was somewhat entertaining although I was waiting for the Count (as in Sesame Street fame) to pop out and correct Kate Beckensale's vain attempt at a Romanian accent...1! 1 vampire ahh..ahh..ahh!!!

The Gabriel thing kinda confused me too, I thought Michael was the warrior arc angel, why'd they choose the ''messenger'' angel instead?

Dracula's ''kids'' reminded me of a scene from Invasion of the Body Snatchers...

I'm with Zix...2 and a half stars...
