Castlevania Coming To The Big Screen
by Maarten Goldstein, Nov 03, 2005 4:12am PSTVariety this morning reports that the movie rights to Castlevania have been snapped up, with Paul W.S. Anderson attached to write and direct. Anderson previously brought us movie adaptations of Mortal Kombat and Resident Evil. At least it's not Uwe Boll? I mean we're talking several steps up the shit ladder here.
Pic will focus on the origins of Dracula and the uprising of the Belmont Clan, a vampire-slaying family who supposedly become humanity's last hope

Even Mayan ruins that they tried to make look old and ancient turn out to be more like cardboard box cutouts.
No shiny studio sets for Castlevania please. Go for the gritty SNES style or the polished, classy-Gothic SOTN/GBA look, I don't care. Just no more movie sets disguised as spaceship from hell, movie sets disguised as underground research lab, ...

The story line, setting and pacing in video games just doesn't seem to translate into films. I believe Valve made a big deal out saying they were learning from films when making HL2 but were insisting that video games are a unique media and need their own rules with story telling.

Seriously, why make a movie about this? Since there's virtually no chance that it won't suck, the best we can hope for is something mediocre, and unless the movie has the main character whipping hearts out of candlabras, I just don't see it being faithful to the source material either.
Also I can pretty much guarantee that the games will have better music, unless they reorchestrate Super Castlevania's score.
