"The world is a vampire."

Nope.

Just catchy music in the trailer to attract attention, probably not part of the actual soundtrack considering the film period.

Sure. But it ruins the whole trailer. And poor marketing doesn't speak well to the movie's quality.

Didn't ruin it for me, granted, I would have preferred period-compatible music, but the Smashing Pumpkins song was (still is?) very popular in its day and it's overall attention grabbing because of it. (look at the topic it created here)

edit: I'd not let it keep you from watching if the story is something you're into and it seems you are.

^^^Like, in the theater? confused

Patient_Leech
I'm curious to see this.

I'd like to sneak out and see it at the theater on a date with myself, but I'm not sure when or how I'll get a chance to.

By going out for milk like a traditional family man.

This was pretty good bit too long.

Saw this last night, I loved the more monster design of Dracula, it makes him a lot more menacing. The human characters were kind of lame and flat. The only one I who seemed three dimensional was the captain, probably due to Liam Cunningham being the strongest actor, by far. The atmosphere and horror elements more than make up for it though.

Robtard
Had forgotten about this, Will try and see it this week

David Dastmalchian is good, too. Does he have much of a role?

I watched this. It was decent.

I've never read Dracula, so maybe that would help things. But it was pretty good. Nothing groundbreaking. I could have done with a bit more practical effects on Dracula, but the design is pretty cool.

Am I the only one who has gotten a little spoiled with 4k HDR and can't really tolerate theater contrast now? It stands out more for darkly lit films like this, though. Night scenes just have terrible contrast with projection screens or something.

For those who have seen it... why...

was the stowaway with all the Dracula bites not turned into a vampire multiple times over?

Did I miss something or just plot armor? (I was very drowsy while watching, heh..)

The Dr. gave her repeated blood transfusions with his blood, which kept the transformation at bay.

Right, but didn't she have a bunch of previous, healed bites?

Estacado
Yup kinda made no sense She should have turned by the Time She was found since the other dude turned in less than a day..

Patient_Leech
Yeah, so plot armor, right?

Robtard
Started out like it could be decent period horror piece, then kinda stumbled its way through mediocrity.

riv6672
Twas good.
Not mediocre at all.

My god was this boring or what!
Could have thrown in a Meg or a Kracken, just to brighten things up.

Utterly stupid characters, except for the black one and the woman. Felt like a BBC production.

First they lack any curiosity about the "stowaway" woman, then they don't want to talk about vampires when they start dropping sailors.
Then they fail to do the obvious thing and group together and search the ship.

So much contrivance just to prevent Dracula's casket from being discovered, brought out into the light and/or dumped overboard.

Terrible writing. Terrible show.
