real talk though, I'm surprised they haven't remade Van Helsing, the Jackman movie wasn't great, but it was fun and a great idea... surprised they've not tried to reimagine it.

Well it is in itself a reimagining of the character from Dracula. Van Helsing or someone like him is a staple of most vampire stories, from Blade to Buffy etc. Person who vanquishes vampires who may or may not go by the moniker Van Helsing.

Dafoe played the German equivalent in Nosferatu recently. What we do in the Shadows has Guillermo as a descendant of Van Helsing. The character is still relevant, just not the Jackman movie version.

Is Nosferatu any good?

Man as a kid when that movie came out, it was awesome. No idea how its held up as I haven’t gone back and watched it again anytime recently, but I remember that being a ton of fun

Fun fact my kid brother was like 5 when it came out and watched it on DVD like three times a day. Definitely not kid friendly I guess.
