Best Vampire Movie - Underworld 2003

My favorite vampire movie is Underworld 19 September 2003 (USA). I have watch it number of times. Every time I have loved it every scene. One of biggest reason for which I love this movie is that it also has romantic touch along with action.
In UNDERWORLD, a dark and Gothic monster action movie, vampires and lycans--an ancient form of werewolf--are at war. While the vampires inhabit a gigantic castle that houses their ancestor's tombs, the lycans live underground in a dilapidated sewer cave.
Both teams are equipped with big guns, and they are constantly innovating deadlier bullets to gain advantage of each other.
On the vampire side, the leather-clad death agent Selene (Kate Beckinsale) delegates teams of vamps to attack the lycans. But when she discovers that the lycans have kidnapped a human medical student, Michael Corvin (Scott Speedman), she knows the worst is on its way.
Against the orders of her superior, Kraven (Shane Brolly), who is obsessively in love with Selene, she awakens the most powerful vampire of all time, Viktor (Bill Nighy) an n offers a tough, fast, and gory addition to the horror-fantasy genre with UNDERWORLD.
Impressive special effects show the lycans transforming from humans to werewolves, and the lycans' ability to squeeze silver bullets out of their skin is also rudely fascinating.
Beckinsale is captivating in the role of the lead vamp, with her leather corset, pouty expressions, and double-fisted pistols perfectly communicating the glam-action mood of the film.
It also has sequels released as. Underworld: Evolution (2006) and Underworld: Rise of the Lycans (2009)
Starring: Kate Beckinsale, Scott Speedman, Bill Nighy, Michael Sheen, Danny McBride, Shane Brolly, Erwin Leder, Robbie Gee, Sophia Myles, Kevin Grevioux
Director: Len Wiseman
The action scenes and some of the special effects could be better, but the movie has utterly superb style, mood, plot and acting! The story itself is probably the best vampire-slash-werewolf story I've encountered.
And the whole thing is borne aloft by the great skill of the British lead actors - particularly hard-hitting cutie Kate Beckinsale, wild-eyed Michael Sheen and that late bloomer of a genuine acting icon, Bill Nighy, who gives an unflinching performance.
Although critics have given C+ grade to movie,but for me it's definitely the best vampire movie.
