'Dracula Untold': Great B-movie!

Billy Wonka

There was some jing spent producing this B-movie spectacle. Great CGI, costume design, and even some of the acting. Problem is getting past all the "preconceived" Dracula/vampire hokum. This movies takes a dead serious approach to Dracula as a repentant "impaler" who decided that paying tribute to the Turks was better than war. Typically, the Turks asked for too much in the way of 1,000 boys to be trained as Turk infantry. In his frustration he returns to a foreboding cave in the mountains filled with bones to seek the power to destroy his enemy. He gets that power and boy-hidy does he ever do some destroying. (Try to guess who the cave vampire is before the credits.)

Since it is no longer scorching hot I can't proclaim this is a great way to beat the heat so it might be a fun cable or disk choice.

I wish I had seen it instead of "the Equalizer" which was boring - PhilJ 14:59:03 10/11/14 (3)

I liked the action, the deliberate pace to create a little character depth, the acting of Denzel. nt - tinear 12:29:03 10/13/14 (2)
