In other news, Freddy Vs Jason is NOT worth a watch. But anyone who doesn't like Kelly Rowland will be happy to see Jason get sort of angreeee with her and mash her in half for the hell of it.
So, thoughts on Underworld? Anyone?

People's lives are at stake.
He he he.
You do raise a good point though, I'm only intruiged about Underworld as it pits Vampires against Lycans. The whole Vampire thing has been done to death, no pun intended. That said I bloomin loved Blade 2 and will doubtless watch B3.
Man I suck.

A proven market, created by the Buffy/Angel shows, for vampire related type programming/films. They make what enough people will buy, simple as that.
Lol.. the cinema cheers where deafening.
What's the point?
It's set in a town in America way up North, which because it's so close to the pole, experiences a month each year with no sunlight. A pile of vampires descend on it as the 30 days begins, and hunts down the townsfolk who cannot fight them - all the usual cliche crap like crosses, etc , doesn't work. Back in New Orleans one of the few people to have seen the vampires in modern times, and survive, learns what is happening and sends people to get evidence... won't say anymore, except it's good. The comic sold out instantly despite being by an unknowen writer and it's worth a fair bit now.
Also a sequel comic is out now, along with a planned movie sequel entitled Dark Days - where the survivors of the original begin to fight the vampires in the modern world, this introduces werewolfs, ghouls, etc as well, on both sides.
It is NOT another John Carpenter's Vampires, but unfortunately for Goatboy has little nudity.

Nope but I guess it involves Vampires. Is it any good?

Also I'd hate to have some dumb humans caught in the middle of the whole massacre going "oh no lawdy! I am being et by dem Vampires and a weird wolf" or words to that effect.
It just wouldn't work.
Scott Speedman has been revealing some information about Underworld:
"I'm not playing a werewolf. I'm not playing a vampire. I'm playing this intern who gets pulled into this underworld. Kate Beckinsale plays a vampire, and the werewolves realize my strain of blood can save their race, so they track me and try to get my blood. [There's] a lot of big action. We had a lot of the stunt guys from the Matrix movies and got to do a lot of the wire training. I had a lot of fighting".
Scott Speedman being her Romeo, of course.
