One of my first crushes ever growing up was Kate Beckinsale as Selene in this franchise. VERY few women alive can look equally scalding hot and absolutely badass, and she pulls it off in spades! This is also one of my favorite franchises. It shows the best depiction of Vampires and Werewolves I’ve ever seen in movies. Especially how the Werewolves look once they’ve transformed. And I love how in this world all of their powers and weaknesses are explained scientifically instead of through magic or curses. Not to mention in this universe werewolves and vampires are actually evenly matched in terms of overall strength making it an even fight.

I always felt, they must have had someone in Amelia’s entourage that might have put something in their drinks and maybe that’s why they didn’t have a chance to fight back. Or the guys who created the vampires for these movies were more about the lycans being stronger and faster. I wanted to see the vampires be vampires as I know them. They had some cool abilities but I felt like it wasn’t enough. Now the last movie made was what I was expecting the vampires to be like.

Scott Speedman's first big break was being the love interest of Keri Russell in Felicity. That show heavily revolved around the love triangle between him, Keri Russell, and Scott Foley. Underworld came out just as Felicity finished up, and Scott Speedman was still a big star. The sequels and prequel aren't nearly as good as the first, but still higher quality than most Vampire/Werewolf movies (low bar unfortunately). Kate Beckinsale is a fantastic lead, and the prequel has Michael Sheen and Bill Nighy owning the screen like usual.

Most? he thought the series went in a different direction than he expected so he turned down filming new scenes but agreed for them to use his likeness for the third film and a snippet of the forth. Probably because Michael, a special being who happens to be the only known person to survive bites from both creatures whom we know nothing about, just came down to being Selene's lap dog. I know Kate was the main bread and butter but I would've liked for them to go more into Michael's power etc.

Yessss, I was obsessed with the Underworld movies growing up. The modern gritty setting is just perfect (and very early 2000s). Selene's a freakin cool vampire, and is probably the only woman my gay self has ever been attracted to. The second movie really gets into the backstory of the Vampires vs. Lycans, and there's also a Lycan movie that tells the whole Lucian Victor storyline (the flashbacks in this movie). It's a fun series. It might just be me, but after hearing Roxy love on this movie and like this more than Blade, it kind of feels like this movie has more of a woman's touch. The movie is sexy, but doesn't really exploit women to do it. Their costumes are beautiful (so sad we didn't get to see more Amelia and her dress), and Selene's always covered from head to toe. The guys are more of the eye candy in this movie. The whole story is about forbidden love between Vampires and Lycans. I don't know, just feels like Underworld embraced its femininity along with its masculinity. edit: it's not the Danny McBride I think you guys are thinking haha

People forget Michael was a Doctor, who had no combat experience, and he was a days old werewolf and a few seconds old as a Hybrid. He had no time to learn his new strength and powers. Where as Viktor is over 800 plus year old Vampire Elder, and the second vampire alive, turned by Marcus Corvinus, the original vampire. And Viktor had centuries of combat experience and knew exactly what he was capable of with his powers. And yet, at least in the beginning of the fight with Viktor, Michael held his own and was winning the fight.

That's what I loved about it tbh. We're shown that Michael has good speed and stability but that only comes with his transformation. He doesn't have any experience with combat and he definitely isn't even a fan of violence given his medical history.

The Danny McBride who wrote this has a small role in the film as a vampire. It was a treat watching you guys react to this, I haven’t seen this movie in years. I remember it came out the year I graduated and we saw in the drive-ins super stoned. It was an awesome experience, I love the use of practical effects. Something very much forgotten in 2003.

It’s not based on a comic, but it was HEAVILY influenced by a series of horror role playing games by a company called White Wolf. WW sued the producers of this film for over a dozen counts of copyright infringement a few weeks before the film was to release, and it was settled privately out of court a few days later. The details of the settlement were never made public.

Marcus was revived by the blood of an older change-control lycan. A revived elder vampire gains the memories of the one whose blood revives him/her, which is how the elders "leapfrogged through time". But they also established that he is also a direct "son of Corvinus", so can survive exposure to both bloodlines like Michael.

The actor who plays the werewolf Raze is the one who created the concept of the movie and wrote the screenplay. His name is Kevin Grevioux.

Blade Vs Underworld was a HUGE thing in my personal life and very recently found out that Kate Beckinsale is VERY open to a Crossover Blade and Underworld! Underworld filled in things i was missing from the Blade series, so its hard to say which i like more as well! PLUS Kate Beckinsale being baddass while still looking GORGEOUS AND AMAZING 😍😍 VERU hard to decide LMAO Pleae continue with this series, it really does have an interesting world

Underworld & Blade are Amazingly good movies. To me they aren't competitors, as they are very different stories.

I get so much nostalgia from this movie, it was actually my first R rated movie. I had such a huge crush on Selene back then. Loved vampire films, books, games ever since.(Except Twilight of course) Underworld will always be my favorite.
@toreyzyre Жыл бұрын
While the character name and Selene, and look are based on a Marvel character, the entire series was based the White Wolf TTRPG World Of Darkness(woD). So much so, when White Wolf successfully sued over IP rights, there 17 counts, and 60 separate details. That said, for most WoD fans, we love the movies. Most likely the best and closest thing to a quality WoD movie adaptation.
