Summary: Rayne (Malthe), a half-human/half-vampire warrior, is humankind's only hope against the advancing vampire race.
On set Promo - View at own risk!
The good news is, Kristanna Loken is not starring in this.
That's it.
I would list all of the things that are horribly wrong with this project, but I don't have enough space for that and I think they are fairly self-evident, lol.
All I can say is that with the pretty, but utterly charismaless Malthe in the role of Rayne, the movie won't even be fucking horrible enough to make fun of like the first. I mean, Malthe managed to be boring as all hell in "D.O.A: Dead or Alive" one of the funniest, cheesiest movies to come out in the last couple of years. Basically a cross between "Charlie's Angel's", "Mortal Combat" and "Beach Blanket Bingo" starring Jamie Pressly, Sarah Carter, that Nika chick from Prison Break and Eric Roberts, it was non-stop ass-kicking females, scantily clad females, over the top action sequences (one of the chicks actually starts a fight topless, throws her bra up into the air, beats people up with her towel, lifts her arms and her bra falls magically in place allowing her to then hold the last guy up at gun point! Brilliant!), illogical beach volley ball games, lesbian innuendo and sword fights. In other words, utterly brilliant ... except for every scene with Malthe. Good lord, she sucks.
With Malthe in the lead BR II will just suck outright, and because there also seems to be no other major female castmembers, slashing the characters as the movie is on won't even be able to save us.
In conclusion, Uwe Boll continues to be an evil genius, Natassia Malthe sucks, and everyone should watch "D.O.A." because it is the bomb diggity.

Some movies should just never have sequels.
*le sigh* If only Hollywood would listen to these words of wisdom. But I mutter this exact phrase every couple of months when unnecessary sequels and remakes are announced for projects that should just be left as they were (either because the original got it right and doesn't need a remake or a sequel, or because the first was so shitty that making another one is just mean)

Date: 2007-01-21 12:06 am (UTC)I'm just as bad. But as you know, I'm a lot more picky with my movies, lol. Kate Beckinsale wasn't even insentive enough to watch all of Van Helsing.
Considering the ragging lesbian she is, I was surprised. More than surprised, shocked even.
Hollywood and Uwe Boll. Check this out: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0913951/. The FIRST one shouldn't have even been made. The only reason I watched the first one was because it was like 10:30 at night and it was on Movie Central (which means it was free, lol).
And watching that stupid preview video for BR2 hurt. It actually hurt. It is NOT that cold in Vancouver! Ok, now it is only because we've had like 14 storms within the last 2 months. Not enough for shrinkage, which by-the-by did not need to know. Some people should not be allowed to speak.
