If you like Dracula movies, then this one is one you'll probably want to watch. It uses all the really cool, in-your-face, fast action, hi-res action scenes that were made so popular by the comic-book action movie adaptations of the last decade. Definitely high on adrenaline factor, and I like that. But this one has the old-school Dracula movie feel.
I watched this movie a few months ago and I liked it. But the thing that brought my attention to it today was that I watched an old Dracula movie last night. It was one of the movies with Christopher Lee as Dracula, chased by Peter Cushing, as Dr. Van Helsing. I always remembered Cushing as the "occult expert" in all those movies, but didn't realize until now that he was the original Van Helsing.

That's about it. I liked the movie enough to mention it, but mainly because I wasn't aware that Van Helsing was the part played by Peter Cushing. He played a part very similar to Sherlock Holmes in "The Hound of the Baskervilles."
