In eighteenth century Romania, Rayne, a dhampir (half-human, half-vampire), prone to fits of blind blood rage but saddled with a compunction for humans, strives to avenge her mother's rape by her father, Kagan, King of Vampires. Two vampire hunters, Sebastian and Vladimir, from the Brimstone Society persuade her to join their cause.
In the Eighteenth Century, Rayne is the half-human half-vampire Dhampir and the lead attraction in a carnival's freak-show in Romania. When she escapes, she meets a fortuneteller that tells that her mother was raped by the king of the vampires Kagan and she decides to destroy her father. In her journey for revenge, she meets Vladimir and Sebastian, the leaders of the fortress of vampire hunters Brimstone, and she joins their society. She seeks for powerful talismans to defeat Kagan, while the skilled warriors Vladimir and Sebastian train her to face the forces of Kagan and her human side falls in love with Sebastian.
I just saw this movie today, the day it opened in my locality. And although I liked it alright, it really is one of those movies chock full of &quot;well that&#39;s good but&quot; features.<br/><br/>If you like vampire movies of the modern, campy, pop type … think of Vampire Lestrat, and Blade, and even Buffy the Vampire Killer … then this move may appeal. I&#39;ve liked Vampire movies and stories since childhood and although I prefer &quot;old school&quot; vampires (like Dracula) I do think the modern ones of this kind have a kind of cool appeal as well.<br/><br/>The cast includes some enormously capable actors: Ben Kingsley, Michael Madden, Michelle Rodriguez. They, and the entire cast, produced solid performances fitting their parts and the overall script … but certainly nothing here really stretched their talents. The female lead, Kristianna Loken, is new to me, but she&#39;s an attractive actress and turned in a solid performance.<br/><br/>The sound and cinematography seemed to have some problems of a technical nature. Some of the speech was obscured or sounded hollow; some of the camera slides were uneven.<br/><br/>Some of the scenes in the countryside were simply breathtaking. In fact, the whole flavor of horseback riding across these panoramic, wild, lush countrysides … during daylight, during nighttime, during twilight … all of this I liked very much indeed. Likewise I liked the castle(s), the monastery, the (fighting) monks, the boat that bore our heroes and heroines across the water … these were all just delightfully lush, evocative … the kind of scenes that just delight the heart of an old Medievalist like me. And the kinds of scenes that will thrill you as well if you like me are a Lord of the Rigns fan.<br/><br/>The general plot … well … is &quot;OK&quot; … but this is the kind of movie that for myself I have a hard time caring about the Plot. The value of a Plot in some stories and movies to me is really just to provide a framework on which to depict wonderful moods and atmospherics and scenery and the delightful playing out of Myth of the Vampire. For this purpose the plot sufficed well.<br/><br/>There were several places during the action, though, in which the events were simply unconvincing. I won&#39;t give them away. And in a sort of high mythos or high legend movie like this, I&#39;m certainly not in the least concerned with &quot;realism.&quot; But everything that happens should surely be convincingly in accord with the movie&#39;s internal logic. Several parts failed this test though.<br/><br/>All in all, a good rich campy vampire flick. Not bad for an evening&#39;s entertainment. But you know … I can&#39;t help but wonder if something with the scale and quality of the Lord of the Rings or the Chroniclkes of Narnia or even Harry Potter could be developed out of the rich, decaying, earthy mythos of the Vampire? If so that&#39;s a movie I&#39;d love to see! Till then, though, hey: BloodRayne is a decent, fun vampire flick.
People are eager to pile on any movie panned by the critics. While I agree that Uwe Boll should be making low budget videos or used car commercials until he learns how to direct, this movie was not all that bad if you overlook some of its obvious failings. <br/><br/>The fact is, there are hundreds of low budget movies made every year that are much worse than this. Many have laughable effects, are more trite, with worse acting, sets and costumes. You can see them any evening on SciFi or the other basic cable channels.<br/><br/>The biggest problem with Bloodrayne may be that it attempts to be more than it is. Compared to most direct-to-video fare, it&#39;s not half bad. I saw it on TV, so I&#39;m not comparing it to other major releases from big studios. I believe people are judging it based on their expectations as much as anything.<br/><br/>I thought Kristanna Lokken was pretty good. Fortunately, she plays the main character. She was a good choice for Rayne. Some of the other actors sounded a little silly trying to affect a vaguely European, old-timey accent, especially Madsen and Rodriguez, neither of whom seemed able to convincingly drop their notable Jersey accents.
While there's no fun in mediocrity, ludicrousness is another matter. Boll is the best at what he does, and what he does is make truly terrible films.
In 18th century Romania, vampire Rayne (<a href="/name/nm0518085/">Kristanna Loken</a>) learns that she is actually a dhampir, half-human half-vampire, created when her father Kagan (<a href="/name/nm0001426/">Ben Kingsley</a>), the King of the Vampires, raped and subsequently murdered her mother (<a href="/name/nm0620828/">Daniela Nane</a>). Determined to avenge her mother, Rayne links up with three members of the secret Brimstone Society—Vladimir (<a href="/name/nm0000514/">Michael Madsen</a>), Sebastian (<a href="/name/nm0205127/">Matthew Davis</a>), and Katarin (<a href="/name/nm0735442/">Michelle Rodriguez</a>)—who train her to fight vampires while she searches for three magical items—an eye, a rib, and a heart—that will make her powerful enough to defeat her father. BloodRayne is based on a 2002 video game of the same name by the video-game development company called Terminal Reality. A sequel movie, <a href="/title/tt0896036/">BloodRayne II: Deliverance (2007)</a>, was released direct-to-video in 2007. A third movie, <a href="/title/tt1153546/">BloodRayne: The Third Reich (2011)</a> (2010) also went direct-to-video Yes, completely. The original game is about a dhampir named Rayne who works for the Brimstone society during World War II-era Germany. She battles monsters, vampires, and Nazis along the way; each step brings her closer to battling her father Kagan, a powerful vampire responsible for her mother&#39;s death. The movie version is set in 18h century Romania, where the Brimstone society recruits Rayne to aid them in battling Kagan. Yes. Boll paid them 150 euros each for participating in a scene shared with Meat Loaf. That was revealed in the Stockholm Film Festival by the director himself. In the USA two versions of the movie have been released: an R-rated and unrated version. The unrated version differs from the R-rated version in three violent scenes and contains an alternate ending as well.
