Summary: SPOILER: Why do vampires always become christians?
Review: This film is a modern adaptation of the original tale in the ranks of the recent "Romeo + Juliet." The acting is mediocre and the believability simply plain. Near the end of the movie, the story strays into new territory where Dracula is actually Judas (the Biblical character who betrayed Jesus) and can only die by hanging and that must occur at sunrise. The "surprise ending" is something that both athiests and christians alike will find annoying and pathetic. As far as choosing this movie or another, I recommend watching "End of Days" or "Stigmata," as both can be classified in the same genre and style, yet actually succeed in pulling off the believability factor. Especially the devil character in "End of Days," which is (in my opinion) hysterically played by Gabriel Byrne.

Summary: Not worth the time, even if it is free...
Review: Not good at all, folks. If you like minimal scares, teenager actors, and DUMB movies, then sign up for this. The rest of us TRUE horror fans, avoid this like the plague!

Summary: A Better than Expected Vampire flick.
Review: Toying with the Legend and Legacy of Dracula, the Worlds most Infamous Vampire, is a Risky Thing. Upon hearing the news of an Updated Dracula film, I jumped to the "It'll be Crap" Conclusion, as did many Film Critics. They Stuck to there Guns... I Didn't. "Dracula 2000" is a Fun Vampire film, it adds a few Clever bits and pieces to the Legend and it strikes a Nice Mix of Serious and Spoof (eg. "I Never Drink... Coffee"). It is a Cleverly Conceived and Well-Made Horror flick.The Large Cast of known faces includes Christopher Plummer ("12 Monkeys" and "The Insider"), Jonny Lee Miller ("Trainspotting" and "Plunkett and Mcleane"), Omar Epps ("Higher Learning" plus "Scream 2"), Jennifer Esposito ("I Still Know what you Did Last Summer" and "Summer of Sam"), Lochlyn Monroe ("Scary Movie" and "Dead Man on Campus") and Sean Patrick Thomas ("Save the Last Dance" and "Cruel Intentions"), plus Starring roles from Gerald Butler and Justine Waddell, who after such Eye-Catching Starring roles, will surely be quite well-known in the Near Future. The Ladies in the cast fare the Best, as they are all Quite Sexy and Seductive, Vampires or Not. The British Boys, Jonny and Gerard give the All-Round Best though, it would have been Great if they Faced off more, but that's me being Picky. The Filmmakers have mixed Oddball Originality with Old-Fashioned thrills (when I say "Old-fashioned", that means anything between the original "Dracula", to the original "Scream") to create an Uneven, but Enjoyable Horror film. At Some points, the film reaches Highly Original and Clever status (eg. The Way Van Helsing has hidden Dracula for Centuries, The Explanation of Dracula's Origins), but for the Most part, it steals from it's Hundreds of Predecessors, which Is fine by me, I wasn't Expecting Unprecedented levels of Originality. One thing I Did expect that I Didn't Receive was more use of the "Fish-out-of-Water" Scenario. Here we have Dracula roaming around New Orleans, Smack in the Middle of Mardi Gras, in the year 2000. There could have been Endless jokes and Clever Encounters, we get a Few here and there ("Farewell... Horses"), but there could have been Many more. I'm being Picky again. Patrick Lussier knows the Horror Genre, being Editor for Wes Craven's "Scream Trilogy" is all the Evidence you'd need. He knows how to film Shock Scenes, he knows how to build Atmosphere, and he is a Master at using Music. This films Soundtrack is a Real Winner. "Marilyn Manson", "Powerman 5000" and "Lincoln Park", the Soundtrack is Heavy-Metal Heaven, and "Dracula 2000" is not quite Horror film Heaven, no one Expected it to be, it Is a Fun Horror Entry and Good enough to be labelled... A Worthy film for the Dracula Legend.

Summary: The best Dracula movie since the "Nosferatu"
Review: While others will say that you shouldn't revisit a classic, "Dracula 2000" is a sexy and scary thriller. Colleen Fitzpatrick (a.k.a. Vitamin C) looks great and can genuinly act. Christopher Plummer is good. Omar Epps is doing his thing and doing it well, and Gerard Butler is excellent as the title character. After breaking into Dracula's crypt in London, Epps and his gang of thieves take the coffin back to New Orleans, but Dracula escapes on the plane, and follows his thirst for blood on the citizens of New Orleans. I won't give anything more away, cause there are acually a few good surprises in this well crafted and entertaining thriller.

Summary: The worst Dracula movie ever
Review: This is one of the worst movies I've seen. The plot is bad, the characters are week, the acting is absurd. The idea that Dracula is really Judas is stupid, and so is the ending. Please save your money, there are plenty of good Dracula movies. Bram Stokers being my favorite.

Summary: Dracula 2000
Review: I went to see this movie with my dad when it came out, and we weren't very disappointed. I thought it gave a fresh twist to the ...-master himself. For what it is ( a dumb horror movie, sent out make a few extra million dollars for the movie company) it is pretty good. I mean, we aren't talking Gone With The Wind here, but if you have an extra $5, it is well worth it. There is plenty of special effects, and if you don't want a movie that makes you think too much, and you just want to jump out of your chair a few times, you have come to the right place. There are plenty of familiar faces in there, (i.e. Vitamin C, Jennifer Espisito, and Omar Epps)and they hold their own pretty well. The best scene is with the young vampire hunter and the she-pires. You can really see the quality special effects when Jennifer Espisito and Vitamin C jump off the top of the building and then saunter their ways over to him. It is visually stunning. Check this one out for a good Saturday night scare!

Summary: Great version of the Dracula story.
Review: This is one of the best vampire movies to come out in years, 9 to be precise, the other being Carpenter's "Vampires." If you are anything like me and like a good old fashioned vampire movie, you'll love this. Especially if, like me, you are tired of Hollywood not taking the genre seriously anymore with movies like "Modern Vampires." (watch that one for 10 minutes and you'll see what I mean.) Craven and his team do excellent work here even managing to throw some new twists into the mix. Like who Dracula really is and why he hates Holy artifacts so much. If you think Dracula is old news and can't be fresh anymore, think again. Check this version out, it has a very high scare ratio and lot's of great action and is very much worth the watch.

Summary: Dragged along 2000
Review: Having seen this film in my local cinema, I can safely say that I am in no hurry to waste my money on buying the DVD. If you want to see a decent vampire film - go and rent a copy of Nosferatu, or, if you want to see some actors you might recognize, Bram Stokers Dracula (even though Francis Ford Coppola's ending destroyed the monster by trying to make him into a man). I only regret that this site doesn't have a half a star option - all the special effects in the world couldn't save this lemon.

Summary: DRACULA 2000
Review: From producer Wes Craven comes a new twist on the classic Dracula The Vampire legend...it's DRACULA 2000. This film has a team of robbers who steal a coffin because they believe that there is treasure in it but it actually houses the body of Dracula and it isn't long before the legendary vampire is unleashed and let loose into our world. Dracula, then, travels to New Orleans to find the one person that could possible have the power to put an end to his evil for all time. This is one of the best vampire movies to come out in the new millenium and is recommended for all fans of the horror genre. Another thing I must say; the women in this movie are hot and sexy!

Summary: Draculia is REAL!!!
Review: Dracula 2000 is the greatest movie ever made. Omar Epps delivers an award winning performance. If you liked Tom Cats, you will love this movie. After watching this film, you will only be able to say two things..."Draculia is real" and "Brilliant." If you are ever hunted by vampires this movie will teach you how to deal with them...hang up the phone and don't ever mess with an antique dealer. While you are waiting for this blessed DVD to come out, I highly recommend seeing "The Forsaken." Hopefully this movie will have many extras, including deleted scenes that were too horrible to even make this movie. With stars like Omar Epps, Vitamin C, and 7 of 9, how could you possibly go wrong. As soon as left the theatre i felt like I had been bitten in the neck, I was a victim of Dracula 2000!
