Underworld: Rise Of The Lycans


Genre: Action/Adventure

Kahp! Kahp!

Half vampire. Half Lycan.
So let's rewind a little bit here.

It is the very beginning of the story.
Viktor (Bill Nighy) - the King of Vampires has made all lycans (werewolves like duh) his slaves to serve his vampire race at night and protect them by daylight.
And this was a time where lycans could not transform back to human form after taking on the form of a werewolf.
That is until one day Viktor chances upon Lucian (Michael Sheen) - the first of his kind to be able to transform back to human form after taking on his werewolf alter-form.

But little does Viktor suspect that his only daughter Sonja (Rhona Mitra) the vampire princess and huntress and Lucian are in love.
And it is only a matter of time before they are found out.

But with both the wild werewolves and slave lycans getting more and more restless, it is getting harder and harder for the vampires to maintain order in their favour.

What more now that Lucian is growing stronger, how can his father-figure Viktor tame his inner-beast and protect his daughter from contaminating the vampire bloodline.

Okay so this a prequel. Which means the events in this movie take place before Underworld 1 & 2.
And the problem with prequels is that you know what's going to happen because it's either explained in the earlier movies or you kinda piece it together on your own.
So unless you wanna spend an hour and half telling yourself what's going to happen before it actually happens onscreen - then i suggest you just rent the DVD.

PS. Black lycan suara deep.

Final Verdict:
