When the beautiful wife of a Montreal vice cop disappears, his investigation leads him to an alluring temptress who admits only to having steamy sex with the missing woman. Unconvinced, the detective plunges into her dark, erotic world, uncovering a terrifying connection to a 16th-century countess said to have seduced and murdered young women to bathe in their blood in order to remain immortal. Now, the detective finds himself in a deadly race against time to prevent this modern vampiress from claiming another victim in this supernatural thriller inspired by actual events.

I decided to check this one out today because I felt like watching a horror movie I haven't seen yet. And the plot of this one sounded interesting at least. And it saying that this story was "Inspired by Actual Events" didn't hurt. I went in knowing it could go either way. While I enjoyed this one... it's slow pace did lessen the enjoyment some. Though it still has a good story. I would really like to see another (preferably a little better) movie inspired by Countess Elizabeth Bathory. I have heard of her story before... but this is the first movie I have seen dealing with her.

My Thoughts:
I must admit... I thought I remembered this one being better then what it actually is. This one really is no more then juvenile jokes and other ignorant  moments. I watched this one expecting at least a few laughs... but I didn't laugh at all through out this entire movie. Was there anything good about this movie... any type of saving grace? Well there is Bridgette Wilson who plays Veronica... if nothing else she was worth looking at!  I think what I need to do when it comes to Adam Sandler movies is stick to the newer ones... and forget he even made some of these older.... more slapstick and juvenile movies.

"Due South" marathon, a review by Rick

Manhunt

I liked Leslie Neilsen as Buck. I also liked the way the story told us some of Fraser's past and his upbringing. Even just having watched this series I am enjoying watching these episodes again. I'm glad I joined in.
