Episode 363: Van Helsing (2004)

from Citizen Dame · host Citizen Dame

We return this week to kick off our "Terrible Movies We Love" month, which is exactly as it says on the tin. We begin with Van Helsing, Stephen Sommers' bizarre attempt to bring Universal monsters into the franchise era. Starring Hugh Jackman in the TITULAR ROLE as monster-hunter Gabriel Van Helsing, with Richard Roxburgh chewing the scenery as Count Dracula and Kate Beckinsale's inexplicable accent as Anna Valarious, Van Helsing is both one of the worst films of the 00s, and wonderfully entertaining. Next week is Hotel Artemis, which I'm reliably informed has Jeff Goldblum in it.
