Critics Reviews

USA Today
The highlight of this fantasy/horror hybrid is watching a pair of the best British character actors --- Bill Nighy and Michael Sheen -- shed their thespian respectability and unleash their inner beasts.
Variety
First-time helmer Patrick Tatopoulos (who designed creatures for all three pics) offers a satisfyingly exciting monster rally that often plays like a period swashbuckler.

Users Reviews

I like this one the best of the 3. The first one was really good and the 2nd one was the worst of the 3. But this one gives us the story, action, and everything else that makes a great action vampire werewolf movie memorable and worth watching...
I will admit that I will miss Kate in this but I do love vampire movies and this prequel should be cool.
