The domestic trailer and poster for director Kevin Munroe's Dylan Dog: Dead of Night. You can watch the trailer using the player below or in High Definition QuickTime here.
Opening in theaters on April 29, Dylan Dog: Dead of Night is a horror/comedy film based on one of the world's most popular comics (60 million copies worldwide). Brandon Routh (Superman Returns) stars as Dylan Dog, world famous private investigator specializing in affairs of the undead.
MediaStinger: "2011 was another good example of Hollywood’s recent trend of upping the quantity of films at the expense of quality. That’s also indicated here by our dirty dozen of nominees for the dubious title of Worst Movie of 2011 and the sizable list of dishonorable mentions."
Dr Chris "Based on a very popular European indie comic, Dylan Dog: Dead of Night follows the adventures of private investigator Dylan Dog who works with monsters and other things that go bump in the night. However, after a pretty bad fallout with the vampire clan of the city as the result of the loss of a loved one, Dylan decided to just handle normal investigative cases like cheating spouses and insurance scams. But when a young woman’s father is murdered by a werewolf, and it leads to a secret that is being hunted by both werewolf and vampires, and several other supernatural monsters, Dylan is forced back into helping these creatures. He is also helping his new partner Marcus, who is killed in battle and resurrected as a zombie against his will and must learn to cope with his new undead existence."
Poor Brandon Routh, I was hoping he'd find another film that he could really shine in. I guess Scott Pilgrim will have to remain his best performance for a while.
My daughter and her boyfriend went to see it and they said that if you just want to see something fun with friends that will make you laugh....it's a good movie. She said they had fun watching it because it was stupid and funny.
A horror comedy that's cliché and predictable, with a lack of coherency and cheap monster effects that are blurred by shadows and choppy editing. Full review by Chris Pandolfi.
So sad that this movie sucks. I mean the trailers and everything made it seem real cheesy before, but sometimes that works for a film. These reviews are all bad though, so I'm probably going to be staying away.
