An updated version of old monster flicks

Rating: Null/10 (23 May 2004)

I am not a very big fan of the old monster movies, but, I will have to say that I was impressed with this movie. So impressed that I saw it twice. Normally I do not do that.
Van Helsing is an updated version of Dracula with a few more twists put into it. The storyline and plot do have a bit to be desired, but who cares? There is so much action in this movie that you really don't notice the fact that these characters have been done, practically to death.
I would highly recommend this movie to anyone who likes action adventure/horror movies.
It has all of the ingredients to be an eventual classic. Action/horror/sex appeal/comedy/drama.
This is one movie that I will more than likely purchase when it is released onto DVD.
