Dracula 2000: ***
"Dracula 2000" is a thrilling, wild ride, that, unlike some teen slasher movies, is original and scary.
"Dracula" is about Christopher Plumber's character who guards the tomb of Dracula. But when a group of thieves (Jennifer Esposito, Omar Epps, Danny Masterson, Lochlyn Munro, Sean Patrick Thomas, and Shane West) steal the coffin and release Dracula, Plumber goes to America to try and stop it and find his daughter, Mary.
"Dracula" starts out with disturbing images of a ship and all of the crew members dead. That is a truly haunting image. As the movie continues, Dracula turns most of the people who opened his coffin into vampires. Esposito is one of the main ones. She uses her good looks to get what she wants. Dracula, himself, is creepy looking.
Mary is haunted by visions of Dracula in her every day life. Some of those visions are very scary. The movie is not a "jumpy" movie. It doesn't burst out its soundtrack every time something scary is happening. It is more of a thriller/suspense movie. It is filled with suspense and terror, murder and mayhem. There is a lot of blood in it, so if you're squeamish pass on it.
"Dracula 2000" is a hip, clever, scary, creepy, spooky wild ride.
**Note: When I watch movies, I watch them as the audience it is targeted to. This movie is targeted at teens, of course. So you can decided if you want to see it or not.
