01/20/06 - Underworld: Evolution

Underworld: Evolution (2006), directed by Len Wiseman

watched w/ Leslie; theater (Starlite Drive-In, Durham, NC)

Let me just start by saying, this is the perfect drive-in movie. Aside from a make-out romance, this is the scary action flick that's great to witness on a huge outdoor screen. It's been years since I ever went to one, and the event alone made the movie oh so enjoyable. It was tough to decide if this is better than the first one, but I believe it is. Although it started a bit confusing, it went into the backstory of the lycans vs. werewolves saga. Beautifully graphic fight scenes, and gory fantasy. Everything has this blue-gray tint...aside from the jerk in the front row who wouldn't turn his headlights off!

4 out of 5 stars
