Anyone not high and surrounded by thirty of their closest friends would be well advised to leave this Dracula entombed.

Reviews for Dracula 2000
Its screenplay is so rudderless and random that it might just as well have been written by the vacuous pre-teens that most likely comprise its key demographic.
10/28/01
Dracula 2000 is an update of the classic story that unfortunately drives several nails into the coffin of the vampire genre.
09/26/01
...thanks to Hollywood, Dracula really is eternal. With those kind of odds, I suppose eventually we’ll get a vampire flick worth watching. But this ain’t it.
07/19/01
Bad in just about every way.
07/09/01
What Dracula 2000 lacks in innovative filmmaking, it gains in giggle fun. This is an "old-school" vampire movie.
06/15/01
Not the worst Romanian count we've seen, but certainly not the best, Dracula 2000 is a middling film through and through, despite the occasional shocks it tries to earnestly achieve.
06/12/01
Dracula may stay undead in the new millennium, but there's not a sign of life -- oh, that bloodless acting -- in this sorry mess.
06/04/01
Lussier seems to find his choice of decor and special effects far more interesting than directing his charges or telling a story.
04/16/01
Vampire movies are on the comeback. But like any genre, the offerings to hit our screens vary in quality.
03/23/01
Into this way-overkilled fray leaps yet another vampire flick, carefully timed for maximum suckage during this Holiday Season.
02/07/01
This is a jejune hack-Drac.
02/07/01
Almost drained the life right out of me.
02/07/01
Neither a comedy nor a horror picture, Dracula 2000 plays more like a bad industrial video for vampire exterminators.
01/04/01
You've got the usual blood and gore, paired with low-cut dresses and heaving bosoms.
01/01/01
This bloodsucker is, well, kinda sucky.
12/28/00
Top CriticAn entertaining excursion into the cheap thrills of second-rate horror, with plenty of bloody mayhem, kitschy crucifixes, and heaving bodices for the Nosferatu inside you.
12/28/00
Long stretches of nothingness and plot where there should be flesh-ripping violence and gore.
12/28/00
Not only is D2K wretchedly written ... and laughably acted, but its pacing is lugubrious.
12/28/00
Even true believers will have a hard time sinking their fangs into this thoroughly perfunctory affair.
