Synopsis

Famed monster slayer Gabriel Van Helsing is dispatched to Transylvania to assist the last of the Valerious bloodline in defeating Count Dracula. Anna Valerious reveals that Dracula has formed an unholy alliance with Dr. Frankenstein's monster and is hell-bent on exacting a centuries-old curse on her family.

The Fear Score take

This is horror dressed as spectacle — a monster-movie carnival where dread yields to velocity. The Gothic trappings are grand, the creatures loud and looming, but the fear here is the childhood kind: shadowed castles, snarling silhouettes, and the old classic monsters made enormous. Atmosphere over anguish, thrill over terror.
