Hope this one gets put up for some Academy effects and story nominations!

Rating: Null/10 (29 November 2004)

This isn't a type of film I'd usually see, however, from the very beginning it captured my intrige. I love how different monster stories are intertwined! Great use of horror classics to create an amazing adventure film. I'm glad the script was strong on it's own so the visual effects alone did not overwhelm the storytelling. The effects are incredible throughout the film. It seems as though the entire cast enjoyed film production as it shows in their characters and interaction. Hugh Jackman is the perfect lead for this film. The filmmakers should definitely put Van Helsing in for some film nominations! This is another success for Stephen Sommers! Igor and Frankenstien's Monster special effects make-up are awesome! Hope Greg Cannom gets Oscar nominated for Special Make-up Effects!
