even though routh gives an essentially lifeless performance and this movie squeaked into the theaters with little recognition and a minimal budget it ended up being a fairly impressive monster mash movie. the plot and writing are the saving graces, and huntington's acting and character as marcus is the shining gem of this movie.

I dunno; maybe you've gotta be in the right mood, but I found this pretty irrresistible in a corny, grade-Z, "USA Up All Night," sub-Bruce Campbell kinda way. Routh's undeniably quite bad, but Huntington's hysterical, Briem's hot, and Kurt frigging Angle's in this. Plus, you've gotta admire the shamelessly el cheapo early-80's retro special effects. Far from a good movie, but I want to see it again. Preferably after midnight.

I like Brandon Routh. He's been good in Superman Returns and Chuck but this was some bad casting in hiring him. The plot mixes equal parts Frighteners, Death Becomes Her and Blade into a real mess of a screenplay. Could've been B-grade fun but instead is just forgettably passable.

Dylan Dog is basically a lackluster version of Whedon's Angel. It's not as fun or as funny but admittedly the action is about par. Let's be honest, people watch Whedon for the fun and funny, so when you take that out you basically end up with this (or Dollhouse) which are pretty bland and boring. Still, some of it manages to illicit a laugh but they're too few and far between.

As a DD fan I thought I'd hate it but i didn't. Yes Routh's performance is not brilliant, and again yes, it is not as half dark as the comics. But if you take it as a kind of DD spoof, i think you'll have fun as I did. Action and fun is generally OK, there is a fine supporting cast, plus there are small nods to the original DD. Not great but not bad either.

I liked the environment and a fresh way for old vampire genre, but the plot was told in the most boring way. The ending fight's got some highlights though even that was watered.

The acting is so terrible that it surpasses the "so bad it's good" bad acting phase. I was cringing the large majority of the time. I sincerely hope you never have to watch this movie.

It's a cool movie, has a few fresh takes on evil, a nice plot and because it doesn't need to be horror or thriller, the mystery part comes out nicely.

Dylan is a private investigator who has a colored past with the thriving vampire, werewolf and zombie communities in New Orleans. He stumbles onto a plot to resurrect the demon Belial, and has to stop it with his zombie sidekick. Hilarious movie that is like a grown up version of Monster Squad with cool creatures, funny one liners and pro wrestler Kurt Angle playing a werewolf named Wolfgang. Belial looks awesome, too.

Poor Brandon Routh. Just... just stop man. Admittedly, this wouldn't have been much better with anyone else. All you really need to know about this film? Pensive closeup "I told you... I... I can't have a partner..." cue wince, remembering. It did keep my interest all the way through and I didn't get too bored despite the hack cliche of it all so that is something.

Weird script & stranger direction leads to a very odd film. The film is a goofy, gothic horror mystery that just doesn't gel.

I wanted to like this movie. Detective mystery with monsters, how could it not be good?! Yet, the movie kept getting in the way of me liking it. I like the main actor (Brandon Routh?), but this movie felt like a long TV episode.

I doubt it is a good representation of the source material. Just felt like a lame mess of a movie.

Silly, anaemic and scattershot with poor leads, it's amazingly underwhelming. Hey guys, remember when I was Superman?

Superman actor as lead character? He's just too cool to be handling subjects of the dark, thus diminishing the suspense. His demeanor keeps reminding us that Oh, they're just acting on the set anyway. His best friend-turned-comical-zombie further dampened the horror. Some scenes are also murky, like the she-werewolf that made the first salvo but simply faded into a where-did-she-go comment. MY SCORING: 99-96=Great; 95-90=Very good; 89-85=Good; 84-80=So-so; 79-70=Boring; Below 70=Forget it
