Default Dracula 2001

I watched this yrs ago on dvd - i paid £5 for it and got asked for I.D I was 21 and I got asked for ID lol. Anyway I watched it and enjoyed it for what it was. It's not one I would buy on Blu but I would watch it again. It seemed to me that it was too MTV like (the way it was filmed - for the kids with 00000.1% attention span).

What do you think of it

Still haven't seen Dracula 2001 yet (or Dracula 2000 as it's known in the US). Need to pick it up, along with the sequels.

I remember watching it when it was new, and seem to recall thinking it was all right at the time. I would definitely be interested in seeing it again. I had no idea that there had been sequels, though! Didn't this come out at about the same time as John Carpenter's Vampires? Now that is a stone cold classic!

I think Dracula 2000 is pretty good, most watchable in fact. Seen the first sequel and wasn't impressed one bit.

The Dracula 3000 sci-fi sequel is a bit crap but i find it strangely enjoyable.

Surprisingly decent and watchable flick. Certainly the best thing the awful Gerard Butler has been in.

Also, Vitamin C makes a sexy female vampire.

It was awful. Still can't get over the fact that Dracula was played by Gerard Butler - it's like watching 'Creepshow' for the first time as an adult and going "oh my god, you mean that was LESLIE NIELSON and TED DANSON???"

Oh my. You think Dracula 2001 is a better film than 300? I'm gobsmacked, Mr. Gojirosan
