Van Helsing (2004)
*Avoid This Film at All Costs!*
This is Hollywood at it'a worst. Bad script, bad directing, bad acting, unnecessary characters, no internal logic, disregard for the laws of science, lousy special effects that rely too much on CGI,lack of understanding (or appreciation) for the material, and just a mindless attempt to make money by creating merchandising tie-ins.
Want good modern Gothic horror based on a literary monster? Watch Tim Burton's "Sleepy Hollow" instead. You'll be glad you did.
Burton is a genius, a master storyteller who could care less about making money, has a true appreciation for horror, and gives you genuine characters whom you feel for.
The Shadow (1994)
Excellent noir adventure
The Shadow is one of the best super-hero films ever made. Ranking up their with Superman (1978) it's one of those rare gems that boasts of a cast deserving of their roles and superb writing. A sleek, noir adventure full of action, intrigue, truly evil villians, and one bombshell of a heroine. the Shadow is not one to be missed.
