Ahahahahahahahahahahahahaaaaaaa I just watched Van Helshit. You know next time I'm complaining about what a crap wanky jumped-up fanfic writer RTD is? Remind me about Van Helsing, won't you? Oh, it's the most beautifully designed atrocious film in the world ever. It seems that the quality of the film is inversely proportional to the size of the budget with Sommers. I mean, I still have a MASSIVE soft spot for Deep Rising, and The Mummy was watchable, but...

Apart from the gorgeous set design, lighting, costumes, etc, what's the one redeeming feature?

Five minutes of Sam West at the beginning doing his bestest Colin Clive impression (with straight hair - Woe!). He makes such a lickable mad scientist. Little bits of fringe flopping in his eyes FTW!

* fevered mutterings about jars of honey and stepladders *

Srsly, who cast Richard Roxburgh as Dracula? They want SHOOTING.

Still, thank you again to lovely Abi for giving me such pleasure this evening... five minutes of lusting and a couple of hours of disbelieving laughter have cheered me up no end :D

It's not so much Roxburgh that's terrible as THE THING ON HIS HEAD which is both utterly terrifying and also the most hysterically funny thing in the entire universe.

I am quite firmly convinced that Van Helsing is one of the greatest movies ever made.

Van Helshit is my "Well, that film was bad, but it wasn't as bad as..." film.

I am genuinely upset that it took hours of my life.

Hence why I sent it as a cheer-up movie. I almost wet myself when I saw it from the sheer OMGBMOVIE-ness of it!

this makes me think of the time i saw "queen of the damned" in theaters. the only reason i didn't walk out of it? i paid to see it. LOL i stayed till the bitter end, and it was one of the worst i've ever seen. (probably because of what i think of the books.)
i need more people to laugh at films with! people around me often take them SO seriously! apart from family, that is. ~remembers laughing madly with family at Braveheart's point-eeeeeed sticks~

Van Helshit - LOL. I'll have to remember that. That movie is so awful, and yet whenever it's on, we watch it. I only watch it because of Hugh Jackman. One recent LJ person highly recommended Van Helsing, like it was a great film. ?! Is there another Van Helsing out there?

I still want to know why Jackman was considered for the title role *at all*-besides eye candy,it seems.And it's surprising no-one's mentioned the ricidulous Jekyll and Hyde fight near the beginning :P
