this film wants to be a roller-coaster ride but isn't

Rating: 2/10 (1 January 2007)

watching this flic I hardly ever found myself on the edge of my seat; it's never really funny or suspenseful or shocking or whatever. films of this kind simply steal from other movies and try to enhance the experience by giving "more of the same" plus pumping up the volume. Here you've got the Frankenstein monster, Dracula, and Mr. Hyde teaming up in a story that makes no sense at all. You wonder what this actually is all about. If you want to see a good horror spoof go way back to Roman Polansky's _The Fearless Vampire Killers_ - now taking the enormous production value that went into this movie it is really a shame how little comes back to the audience. But this movie has no point. It's loud, it's always in motion but it never gets off the ground.
