The first Underworld film is on Cinemax right now. Haven’t seen the original in some time but I have seen it a dozen times and saw it in the theater. Kate Beckinsale is just completely stunning in tight leather. I mean if she had AIDS I’d risk it.

Those BERETTAS!!!

Good movie and Selene is kinda nice to look at.

Great movie. The follow up movies hurt more than they helped the story, but the first was very good.

One of me and my wife's favorite movies. I always wondered why I thought Berettas where sexy

Every generation has their favorites. Marilyn Monroe, Bo Derek, Cindy Crawford etc etc.

Somehow Kate wasn't the generational favorite in 2000's. I don't know how because you can put her up against anyone else, even if she's not your "type" she comes out the winner. Even in something subjective as personal taste, everyone would have a hard time comparing her to another sex symbol and dismiss her.

One of the most beautiful women I've ever seen in the past 30 years.

Yep, Kate rocked in that role. Movies had a nice gothic-feel about them too.

That's odd. The hammer looks cocked on that Beretta, but the trigger is in DA mode.

The guns were 92FSs modified to fire in full auto. Might have something to do with the modifications affecting the trigger distance.

Or those could also be dummy stunt guns, molded with the hammers back and the trigger in that position.

Super hot beautiful babe in skin tight leather shooting and blowing stuff up.

How does anyone not love this movie

Wish they kept the Berettas throughout the sequels.

And the same level of *cough* cinematic quality?

One of my favorite outtakes is Kate’s mispronunciation of Lycans. If you have the DVD/Blu-ray, take a look. Also available on YouTube - Underworld [2003] Outtakes. Other outtakes also are interesting. Looks like the cast had fun making the movie.

I always liked Van Helsing, too. Kate plus the "Brides" is quite a package.

Frankenstein in Van Helsing also is a great character. I also recommend taking a look at the outtakes for Van Helsing

Wow. That was the last movie that I actually walked out of the theater from. Just an absolutely atrocious film.

Underworld though I did very much enjoy.

Van Helsing plays at a couple of different levels. I first saw it after seeing Underworld. Combine Kate Beckinsdale and Hugh Jackman, and that was enough for me to like it. There are quite a few great scenes and individual stories in the film. I’ll agree that it certainly is not a seamless whole. The vampire ball is an incredible scene. Add in the assault crossbow and fighting the brides and it is an enjoyable watch.

"Why does it smell like wet dog in here?"

I laugh every time.

I liked the Underworld movies in general. A neat concept that was executed pretty well. Besides, Kate is easy on the eyes.

The opening scene of Underworld . . . I was hooked.
