Long ago, Abraham Van Helsing (Christopher Plummer) imprisoned the infamous Count Dracula (Gerard Butler) within a vault inside Carfax Abbey. In the present day, Van Helsing relies on Dracula's immortal blood to remain alive. But then thieves break into the vault and steal the vampire's coffin, thinking it contains something valuable. Liberated from his prison, Dracula seizes the opportunity to escape, but Van Helsing sets out to banish him to the crypt once again.

Critics Consensus

This retelling trys to offer a different spin on the origin of Dracula. Unfortunately, there's nothing here audiences haven't seen before.

Mary, a descendant of the prototypical vampire slayer, works at a Virgin megastore in New Orleans, and the gratuitous use of the city during Mardi Gras is the least of this movie's unoriginal sins.

This is occasionally entertaining stuff, but deeply silly.

Not only is the guy playing Dracula not terrific, he barely even registers on screen.

2.5/5

Butler is certainly charismatic as the undead bloodsucker, despite only having two expressions: slight bafflement, and, when an attractive neck comes into view, that of a small boy who's just heard an ice-cream van tinkling round the corner.

3/5

Has its moments, comic and heart-in-the-mouth, especially when Butler's Dracula is allowed to strut his stuff.

This is the best movie ever written in the history of cinema. Let alone in the history of horror. The acting, the casting, the dialogue, the cinematography, everything absolutely blew me away. This movie actually saved my life. My life meant nothing to me until I watched this beautiful film. I would recommend.
