Around here (aus), cable tv has been showing all of the (many, MANY) old Van Helsing films, or films with said character was in, for about a month now.

there are old van helsing movies? are they good?

haha van helsing is almost as famous a character as Dracula.

Somebody must have gone to see it last night. I'm going on sunday to see either Van Helsing or Kill Bill.

Go to www.imdb.com,
search IMDB under "CHARACTERS" For Van Helsing.
There's, uh, quiet a few...
The one's I've seen on this entire list range from good to totally crap...you SHOULD check out a few though, the older but not totally ancient ones mostly.
Oh, and Leper, I haven't been to see Van Helsing yet, I'm going tommorow, but, having seen Kill Bill 2 myself, I'd say DEFINATELY go with Van Helsing.

i saw it last night...horrible...i made another thread...didnt see this one till after, oh well....

If you can accept it as an action film as opposed to a horror film, I think it was pretty decent. Just think of how far worse it could have been, given the content and characters involved.
Good, but it aint got shit on the oldskool flavour of The MonsterSquad..

Saw Van Helsing and it was a pretty good action movie. It was like "the mummy" only darker and better in every category. Also Brendan Frasier wasn't in it so that's a bonus.

i'm already determined that the movie is gonna suck. i don't know. there just seems to be A LOT of hype surrounding it and for some reason it really doesn't interest me. may be if it were more low key and they used little known actors. when hollywood gets a hold of anything there's cheese factor plus the director of the mummy doesn't really do anything for me. are those the only films to his credit? if so, it's not saying much. doesn't have the same bang for me as let's say, " from the director of halloween...."
i love classic horror and it's a good idea but from all the clips i've already seen i feel like i've watched the movie and don't like it...:rolleyes:

If you go there expecting to be scared or to see a horror flick, you'll be dissapointed, but if you wanna see a good action flick you wont

I'd like to see Van Helsing kick the shit out of Wufongtan.
