Advantages: Errr, theres some vampires
Disadvantages: Its crap!

Another saturday night spent with a DVD and wine. There was nothing good left in the video shop, so after half an hours deliberating between this and the 'Dukes of Hazzard', I decide to impress the hubby with this one. As I left the shop I was already regretting the decision, Johnny Knoxville was much more appealing.........damn it! I hated the first 'Underworld' so why had I got this one? Dunno but with a heavy heart I resigned myself to an evening ... Read review

Advantages: A good, entertaining sequel
Disadvantages: Is often shot in dark locations making harder to see

When the first Underworld movie was released in 2003 it was widely slated but it gathered an almost cult like status. Based on the storyline of the first, it was no real surprise that a sequel would be made and this is it. It is an enjoyable watch and although it again was panned by many, it will probably be very popular now that it has been released on DVD. The story is set up for a third and final film and I would not be surprised if director ... Read review

Advantages: Visual effects, lots of action

Advantages: Good action horror combination
Disadvantages: Not a patch on the first, almost seems a struggle

Underworld Evolution is the 2006 sequel to 2003's Underworld. It continues the story of Selene, a female vampire who has uncovered a plot hatched by their rivals, the werewolves (Lycans). To appreciate this film completely, it is necessary to have seen Underworld, as many of the details would not otherwise make sense. The Plot This will contain spoilers for any who have not seen the first film. will not include any spoilers for Evolution. Selene, ... Read review

Advantages: Great sound and video effects, great story and very dinamic fight through the whole movie
Disadvantages: none

Directed by Len Wiseman. This is the second challange of Vampires and Lycans. This is an immidiate follow of the first part. The things are happening on the same night as in the first, and ends one night later.

With many actions, very good effects and sound, when you start to watch this movie you will not be able to stop :-) The movie ... Read review

Advantages: More blood sucking goodness
Disadvantages: I need more

PERSONAL REVIEW: I thought this film was a brilliant follow up to the Underworld original movie. I am a big fan of vampire movies and this definatley lived up to my expectations, the special features were also really good as i got an insight into how they used minitures to create large battle scenes which was really interesting! CHARACTERS: Seline (Kate Beckinsale) is back to seek out Marcus (Tony Curran) with the reluctant help of hybrid Micheal ... Read review

Advantages: A fantastic sequel
Disadvantages: A very dark film

First of all I would like to say that if you haven't seen the Prequel to this ('Underworld') then you must otherwise you won't know anything. Although there are some flash backs to the past which show a lot of the previous film. SPOILERS BELOW!! The war between Vampire and Lycan rages on. Marcus (Re awoken vampire elder) is stronger than ever before. He decides to release his brother (William - A Lycan who can never take human form). William ... Read review

Advantages: Good effects, well acted and fun to watch.
Disadvantages: Story was a little slow but interesting all the same.

This was a good film and i did enjoy watching it, the effects were quite well done and the film quite well acted. The film of course again revolves around young Seline's efforts to do good in some way. When Marcus, The last of the living elders, is awaken early, he grows to become stronger than he ever was before and gets a glimpse of something that is of great interest to him. Marcus discovers that his Lycan brother whom he failed to keep safe ... Read review
