Silent Bob Posted March 30, 2003 Share Posted March 30, 2003 (edited) So here's an interesting movie that I found in IMDb's Coming Soon section. Underworld - A movie about a war between the race of vampires and the race of werewolves. (From IMDb) Selene (Beckinsale), a beautiful vampire warrior, is entrenched in a war between the vampire and werewolf races. Although she is aligned with the vampires, she falls in love with Michael (Speedman), a werewolf who longs for the war to end. Now I've heard of some farely original re-tellings of Romeo and Juliet, but this one seems to take the cake. Looks pretty badass, though. Seems kinda ambitious for a first time director whose only other credits are as props assistants for ID4 and Stargate. Still... Can't argue with Kate Beckinsale in black leather.

The NZA Posted March 30, 2003 Share Posted March 30, 2003 Its like Ed Wood meets Shakespear....i guess im curious tho. There's like this whole clientel (mostly chicks i suspect) who are down for watching anythin with vampires in it, so it might do well either way, but yeah, throw out more details as they come....

Reverend Jax Posted March 30, 2003 Share Posted March 30, 2003 Bob put it very well, for retelling of R&J, this takes the cake. If this movie can pull off a sort of Blade feel to it, this story could work pretty well. I need to see more details to form a real opinion, but I foresee possible good things.

JunkerSeed Posted March 30, 2003 Share Posted March 30, 2003 looks cool, looks a bit too much like an low-budget crappy series on the sci-fi channel, but I'll see it on premise alone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
