Was this any good? I don't remember being in the theatres :(
It never hit theaters as far as I know. I've already seen it, I really didn't like it. And poor Lucy is starting to look her age.
Not only is it Unrated...but it's Undead! How cheesy is that.
This was playing when I saw Spidey 3 for the 2nd time I wonder if anyone actually watched it?
Looked like a complete Underworld ripoff- and I hated Underworld!!!
I saw this movie. It was average at best. Maybe an extra 25 minutes could make it into an ok movie.
NICE unrated cover though.

Wait till you see "Skinwalkers" then.

About as cheesy as a future version being labelled the "Undead Director's Cut".

So Michael Chiklis actually found the time to shoot a B horror thriller in between The Shield and Fantastic 4. I think he can get better scripts than this.
No Lucy! You were only good in Kill Bill Volume 1 and that is final.
Yea this was given an extemely limited theatrical release.. I might rent this just to check out Lucy Liu's lesbian scene though..
lucy? lesbian scene? SOLD!

Based on what? Have you even read the synopsis? It is absolutely nothing like Underworld. Except that it has vampires.

It probably sucks, but I need to rent it and judge for myself. The Unrated actually has quite a bit of added footage, which is surprising. But if it sucks...that ain't a good thing.
I will be buying the unrated edition.Could have done with a bit more extras.
This did go to the movies,but it was what they call "Dead on Arival" and I didnt read all the post above,but I dont care what people say about this movie as long as Lucy Liu is in it....It must be good!!!

Hmm...so when is Lucy Liu such a cool figure? From what I see she is a bad actor and not all that great looking. Either way I won't see this!
this looked direct to dvd.

I always thought she looked alright, but your right that she's a bad actor. But she's still not close to being as good as Michelle Yeoh is.

Quote: From the producers of THE GRUDGE Franchise comes this terrifying new thriller starring Lucy Liu! A female reporter (Lucy Liu) wakes up in a morgue to find herself a member of the undead. Trying desperately to fight off her thirst, Sadie prowls the dark city streets, armed with a crossbow and hell-bent on slaying the twisted vampires that made her this way. Detective Rawlins (Michael Chiklis) crosses paths with Sadie in his investigation, and the two join forces, stopping at nothing until they’ve exacted their revenge.
