Dracula 2000 was rushed to get it released in 2000. Lussier wanted more time, but Craven Told him to finish it on time. It was completed a week and a half before the theatrical release.
The name of Erika Eleniak's character in Dracula 3000 is an obvious nod to Alien. I quite enjoyed Dracula 2000 (the revelation of Dracula's true identity was really surprising). Gerard Butler is not as great as Gary Oldman in Bram Stoker's Dracula, but he did a good job.
Other then the scene with Mary and Dracula's brides that looked a little wonky at her house. I thought this was a damn good movie, and love how they changed up his lore. Even though they explain how Dracula's body got mixed up with another and lead to Mary thinking she had his body. Also why Dracula looks different in the other movies. I didn't not care for the sequels.
I know the joke about the Demeter was a reference to The Last Voyage of the Demeter film, however in 2020 Mark Gatiss and Steven Moffat (the creators of Sherlock) did their own take on Dracula in a 3 episode miniseries. The second episode (which by British standards lasts about 80 minutes) took place entirely on the Demeter. And it's a great series overall.
Dracula 2000 is another guilty pleasure of mine. Plus, it has Vitamin C in the movie. Her Graduation Song was my high school graduation song. Also, the movie had a great cast with Gerald Butler, Johnny Lee Miller, Christopher Plummer, Jennifer Esposito, Shane West, Omar Epps, Vitamin C (of course), Jeri Ryan, and Sean Patrick Thomas (we don't talk about that criminal). The movie also has a banger soundtrack. I think I still have the CD.
I liked the new direction for Dracula 2000, of having Dracula revealed as Judas and giving an explanation to why he hates anything holy or made of Silver.
Fun video! So glad to see Drac 3000 mentioned. That movie isn't great, but the ending was so incredibly abrupt and tone-deaf that it made everyone in the room laugh for minutes on end. Worth the entire runtime!
I rather enjoyed Dracula 3, it does some fun things and is a solid v-movie road adventure. Lots of little bits like the vampire circus and the revolution seeming to be spurred by the possibility of Dracula already dominating the government and was secretly ruling from afar really make this one fun.
Have you ever noticed how many Direct to video sequels are filmed in Romania, Bulgaria or other European countries?: Fright Night 2: New Blood, Subspecies, I Spit on your Grave 2, this movie, etc. Lower taxes I guess.
Or the budget just goes farther. For example: $1 million spent in the US, *maybe* pay the cast if it's a bunch of unknowns. $1 million spent in Europe, you get the entire cast, sets, costumes, catering, etc. etc., *and* still have some for "donations" to the officials when you don't have the necessary permits. (A bit of exaggeration, but you get the point. 🙂 )
No joke, my tv glitched when I tried to watch the first movie in the series and played The Naked Gun 3 instead, and it took me until the title sequence to realize, that’s how low my expectations were going in. I’m looking forward to completing this series though.
I do enjoy this franchise because it has the guilty pleasure cheesy flavour that I enjoy in bad movies, Dracula 2 kinda sucks (no pun intended) but Dracula 2000 and Dracula 3 are fun movies
Point of order: Ruther Hauer didn't play Dracula in Argento's movie. He played Van Helsing. Thomas Kretchmann was Drac. I thought the concept of Judas being the first vampire was interesting. However, his also being Vlad Dracula, prince of Wallachai never really fit with that.
If you want to see an actually good version of the Demeter story, check out the BBC "Dracula" miniseries from a couple of years ago. The Demeter section is the 2nd of 3 parts. The whole miniseries is good, but Part 2 was my favourite.
The movies definitely have memorable moments, just aren’t good as a whole. Liked the one Vamp bribe getting questioned by the police, and Philip Stevens no-selling a crucifix because he is an atheist
my favorite movie channel: this one, RLM, Bad Movie bible, Cynical Reviews. and the Second Wind former Escapist guys *if* they get Jack in on the movie talk, but he mostly does the D&D thing now so don't count them. LOL at the Demeter reference edit I have this movie confused with another one. Trainspotting is the greatest movie of all time so I appreciate the sick boy ref
Well. Everyone has a different opinion of "near future". I mean if someone was a few thousand years old maybe from their view "5 years" would be a near future. :D
I think humans playing regular pool a thousand years in the future is the only part of that movie that makes sense. We still play chess and that’s like 1500 years old
If anything, Dracula 3000 is pretty much Alien but with vampires. Incidentally, I believe there was a much older movie with a similar premise called Queen of Blood.
Dracula 2000 was okay. The Judas Iscariot reveal at the very end of the film felt like a complete afterthought, and it really did nothing but muddle his connection to any historical Draculas. Plus, let's face it: Gerard Butler didn't exactly look like a first-century Galilean Jew. Granted, he didn't really look much like a 15th century Romanian, either, especially at that age.

Always looking forward to seeing your videos just got done rewatching some of your old videos

Never expected a Star Trek/Trainspotting crossover but I'm here for it

Actually, in the UK it did come out a year later and was renamed Dracula 2001😂
As well as in some Latin American countries
"Wait, play that again" 😂😂😂 Classic Josh, classic💯
What is the song?
@@michaelciugulam7241 Let's Go by Lil John
@@alriley05 many thanks ! And it's a sample from crazy train by ozzy osbourne
"The Rapist, I hope your enjoying your time in jail buddy" My sentiments completely. I also do remember listening to Vitamin C!
i remember watching these 3 flicks when they were on AMC on demand. quite fun watches.
I remember seeing Dracula 2000 and parts of Dracula 3000. The part two and three I never seen nor did I know existed. I'd watch them all again.
Jennifer Exposito is the bartender from "I Still Know...".
I actually really liked parts 2 and 3. Was sad we never got a part 4
Glad I'm not the only who remembers the Jungle Book

Can’t wait to see your new vid this Friday, in the near future
This was my first Dracula media 💀
Fun video! So glad to see Drac 3000 mentioned. That movie isn't great, but the ending was so incredibly abrupt and tone-deaf that it made everyone in the room laugh for minutes on end. Worth the entire runtime!
Damn, I didn't know they made sequels to Dracula 2000!
In Spain it happened! It was delayed some months so it was released here as "Dracula 2001"
Josh: "...Before transforming into King Leonidas."
Me: I thought he was Secret Service agent Mike Banning. 😀
Great video as always
In many countries, the title of this movie is LITERALLY “Dracula 2001”… 👍🏻

Dimension Films figured this out in the early 2000s and filmed a lot of their direct-to-video sequels in Romania.
3000 is big Saturday on SYFY energy

For Erika Eleniak, you shoul called her Miss july 1989 (Undersiege with Steven Seagal)
Rutger plays Van Helsing in Dario Argento's Dracula
I do enjoy this franchise because it has the guilty pleasure cheesy flavour that I enjoy in bad movies, Dracula 2 kinda sucks (no pun intended) but Dracula 2000 and Dracula 3 are fun movies
Can't remember if it was the dvd or soundtrack but in the UK we had Dracula 2001
*sighs* According to folklore SUNLIGHT DOES NOT HARM VAMPIRES! Heck, even in the novel, Dracula, the count was out and about in the daytime!
Point of order: Ruther Hauer didn't play Dracula in Argento's movie. He played Van Helsing. Thomas Kretchmann was Drac.

I literally searched for this the other day 🤣
The plot for Dracula II was originally intended for Dracula 2000, but they thought the idea was a little too boring so they shelved it.
I watched Dracula 3000 in a little tent connected to a shelter in Iraq in 2005, we VERY much appreciated how silly it was...
Never mind Vitamin C, whatever happened to Justine Waddell? Shame she seemed to disappear. She was a great Tess of the D'Urbervilles.
If you want to see an actually good version of the Demeter story, check out the BBC "Dracula" miniseries from a couple of years ago. The Demeter section is the 2nd of 3 parts. The whole miniseries is good, but Part 2 was my favourite.
Hi! Did you maybe delete a Paranormal Activity timeline video? I swear I watched your video on it but I can't find it
here it is!

Was Vitamin C a person? I thought it was a music group.
I won free tickets to see a private screen of flim it turn out to be Dracula 2000 it was great and the twist bout Dracula was great
Actually, in most parts of europe it did come out a year later and was renamed Dracula 2001😆😆😆
Kinda ashamed of myself for not getting the Ozzy reference straight away.
The movies definitely have memorable moments, just aren’t good as a whole. Liked the one Vamp bribe getting questioned by the police, and Philip Stevens no-selling a crucifix because he is an atheist
That would be me as a vampire. "A cross!? 'Scuse me a moment while I laugh hysterically before removing your digestive tract." 😀
Dracula 2000 is far greater than Dracula untold!!!! I said what I said! 🙌🏻
What really hurts knowing bout this movie.... Tom Kane has a small part.
my favorite movie channel: this one, RLM, Bad Movie bible, Cynical Reviews. and the Second Wind former Escapist guys *if* they get Jack in on the movie talk, but he mostly does the D&D thing now so don't count them. LOL at the Demeter reference edit I have this movie confused with another one. Trainspotting is the greatest movie of all time so I appreciate the sick boy ref
wow, in the year 3000 they still remember who Lenin was
My sister once refer to this movie as "that Dracula movie where he's hot"≈
Well. Everyone has a different opinion of "near future". I mean if someone was a few thousand years old maybe from their view "5 years" would be a near future. :D
Dracula 2000 was a good film!
I LOVE Dracula 3000, it is a fun film!
I think humans playing regular pool a thousand years in the future is the only part of that movie that makes sense. We still play chess and that’s like 1500 years old
I have 2K on DVD
Um Actually whenever Dracula dies dies he is regenerated as a different actor so they can keep recasting him.
Wouldn't 2005 BE "the near future" of 2000? 😅
OHHHHHHH DUDE I totally thought Dracula 3000 was Dracula 2000 when I caught most of it the ol' cable channel surfing days edit there's a second 2000!?
Seven of nine😂😂 2:41
If anything, Dracula 3000 is pretty much Alien but with vampires. Incidentally, I believe there was a much older movie with a similar premise called Queen of Blood.
Those movies weren’t very good, but they were fun popcorn flicks

Only thing good about Dracula 2000 was the soundtrack. :)
Why didnt you cover Dracula through Dracula 1999? I feel you missed a whole lot of character development over these movies
you're probably right, especially given how much crucial continuity there was in Dracula 1457.
Dracula 2000 is one of my most hated movies... I own three copies.
Are your sarcastic ? Because the movie Demeter exist lol
Obviously lol
De-meet-er
These movies are so weird and bad 🐢
