Can you please tell me what it's about?
Having recently read Dracula I can't see how the film makes any sense at all. From what I gather, in the film he goes around slaying numerous famous creatures from horror stories and is a fairly young man and a good, fearless fighter. The only similarity I can see is that he has a good knowledge of vampires.
So, can anybody explain?

It's just about Dracula lording it over some village, and Van Helsing, a legendary monstery hunter, comes along, and tries to kill him. There's also a Werewolf and Frankenstein in there. It's got nothing to do with the original Dracula movie, the original Frankenstein or any other comic or book or film that's gone before.
It's literally just a mish mash of characters cobbled together into one film. Like if they did a film about Alien against the Predator or something stupid like that!
Anyway, I thought there was a comic about Van Helsing, and he was a vampie hunter, Buffy/Blade style.

Quite possibly, but the book was written pre-1900 so any comics will have been based on the character from Dracula.

To be honest I thnk the comics are actually based on the film. But yeah, the character and the film only have the name Van Helsing in common with the original Dracula.
It's like if I made a film about a guy who swam around the world with Jackie Chan in his pocket and called it JFH.

Ah, it's on Sky Movies tomorrow night. I'll watch it then.

Not quite. At least they've kept absoute basics that Van Helsing is involved with vampires. It's jsut after that that it seems to go off a bit randomly.

But I thought you and Jackie were like that (YN)
You're thinking of JFK. He tried to save JFK's life but unfortunately, the bullet hit Chan's head, went straight through and killed JFK anyway. Chan didn't die but he got brain damage which led to him agreeing to star in comedies with Owen Wilson.

Ah, did the same thing happen to every actor in the last 5 years? That'd explain an awful lot

Not exactly the same, but similar events, yes. The worst effected were Luke Wilson, Vince Vaughn, Ben Stiller, and Will Ferrel. For example, Elvis was Ben Stiller's Godfather. Sadly, when Ben was still baby, Elvis dropped him in a toilet and then died on top of him. As you can imagine, that is a terrible thing to experience and he's never recovered.

He's even inn Around The World In 80 Days. What a film.
And Owen Wilson is great. Haven't you seen I Spy?
