Castlevania Coming To The Big Screen

32

Variety 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

    He also gave us Event Horizon, so maybe he's about due for another good one?

        Nah. AVP was a decent flick that got killed in the editing room.

          That doesn't excuse the millions of other thing that were wrong with that movie.

          I still remember when I was in the theatre at the last scene where the main predator is "marking" the chick, and they're standing there afterward.

          Someone in the back of the theatre yelled "Kiss 'er!" and the whole place was laughing their asses off. It was just absurd.

      was that about everyone hallucinating hell on the time bending spaceship?

      that was the first movie to freak me out in a while.
