It looks very interesting. I was expecting a "oh shit here we go with a clusterfuck" but surprisingly the trailer captivated me. Intrigued to check this out!

I've seen the same trailer over and over. I'm kind of digging it now. Evans is rocking it and I dig the looks. Aside from Nosferatu there.

That's Charles Dance. Shut it.

Yeah, this looks like a very uninteresting version of Castlevania, and way more unimaginative.

This looks like it could go either way to me. I'll most likely check it out since I have some movie cash for it.

I will be going, for no other reason than the fact that October of LY was totally devoid of all horror movies save for Carrie and I feel TY is making up for it. Looks like a perfect pre-Halloween movie.

Universal is ramping up the marketing. I saw several tv spots for this last weekend. I think it looks really good. Evans looks the part and if this does well, I'm sure Universal will use this version of Dracula in their plan of shared monster universe.

Got 4 free tickets with the BDs of Dracula, Frankenstein, Bride Of Frankenstein and Wolf Man. Guess I will go see it.

In the commercial, Dude says "Drink and become Dracula." Isn't he already fuckin' Dracula? Lol

Hopefully they shot this with an R rating in mind before cutting it for a theatrical PG-13 release. Maybe the BD will be UNRATED.

People have to remember, blood and gore plus violence = okay and films can get away with quite a bit being rated PG-13. Its only if you swear or have nudity/sex in your film that you for sure get stamped with an R rating.

Violence, apparently, is fine as long as you don't show red blood. All of the green splatter in AVP was fine. I've been watching 24, and I'm still shocked at the level of intense violence (and brutal torture) they were allowed to show. But Jack can't say anything more profane than "dammit." Our standards are truly bizarre. Apparently, kids aren't allowed to learn about sex, but can watch people being brutalized.

That's how I remember it as a kid! Fast forward through the locker room boob shot in Robocop. But watch Murphy get his hand blown off.

Thank God for internet porn, or I'd still be left wondering what sex is.

It has been retitled to "I, Dracula."

IMDB has a runtime listing of only 92 minutes. I hope the plan was to have a shorter movie vs. a bunch of heavy editing during post production.

Early reviews aren't promising. 14% RT score with 7 reviews in. Sounds like this might be another monster dud from Universal.
