Storyline

In his quest to reincarnate his bitten ladylove, 19th-century vampire-hunter Dr. Abraham Van Helsing (Rhett Giles) becomes an immortal. Decades later, when blood-drained bodies begin arriving at the hospital where Van Helsing works in contemporary Los Angeles, the good doctor recruits and trains a new batch of vampire hunters. With the help of the Rev. Cefalu (Anthony Turk), Van Helsing and his team struggle to find and destroy Sebastien (Andreas Beckett) -- the last of Dracula's line.



Short Review

Avoid it, don't watch it. I certainly regret that I wasted even one minute on it. I rate this hideous failure as 1/10 because there is no facility to rate 0/10. Some bad movies are so bad that they are funny, amusing. THIS movie is in a whole different category: it is painful to watch. A reviewer on another site said: Any rating above 2/10 is fake. Yes, I agree. How it is possible for two reviewers to award 10/10 and 9/10, I do not know. Cast or crew members, or friends/relatives of them? Just fooling around? Trolls? Here they are: "9/10 Another gem in the long line of the Way Of series" and "10/10 This is very scary". What? HUH? Are you serious? A "gem"? "scary"? NO WAY.This is truly one of THE worst films I have ever seen, in decades of watching a few thousand flicks. I've reviewed many hundreds, here on Rotten Tomatoes and elsewhere. Horror films are one of my favourite genres, vampires in particular. To try to associate this stinking putrid crud with Bram Stoker is criminal imho; undoubtedly the title fooled many people, drew them in to buying this puerile nonsense.Everything about this "motion picture" is dreadful: nothing is praiseworthy. The acting is abysmal, just unbelievable. Denise Boutte, a grown woman in a lead part, in particular comes across as a little child reading something for the first time. Hard to put into words how awful her acting is; one of the very few times words do indeed fail me. A new low has been reached with the creation of this garbage. The violence is a joke, but not amusing. The ending, though mindless, was a blessed relief. #
