Van Helsing - The London Assignment
"Van Helseing--The London Assignment is a nicely done animated prequel to the film Van Helsing. At the start of the Van Helsing motion picture, our hero is pursuing the monster Mr. Hyde. The London Assignment, a short, sweet little animated film, shows us the rest of that story. Van Helsing and Friar Carl are sent to London to discover what evil is butchering young, beautiful ladies of the night, and leaving whitered corpses, as if their souls have been drained. There's a lot of the visual, sensual grisliness you find in graphic novels, plus the flowing anime style of art, adapted to a western european gothic theme. It's quite good, but the best part of the disc is the bonus features. There are interviews with all the principal actors of the motion picutre Van Helsing, and documentaries on the stunt rigging and action sequences. You'll be amazed how much of the action was NOT computer generated. You get to see the Frankenstein Monster out of makeup, and you will be surprised what he really looks like, I promise you--whether that's a thrill or a letdown only you can judge. Other features include the making of the Van Helsing video game, and storyboard art of the animated London Assignment film. If you are a student of film and animation, the bonus features will be especially satifying. If you are not, I believe you will still find them very cool."
