Remaking Van Helsing

Van Helsing


The task

We were given a list of films that are currently being reviewed for a possible remake out of this list i chose the 2004 film Van Helsing with my choice made i then had to review the plot, characters and theme of the film and make it apply to a current day audience.

What i did

being a big fan of the original film i decided to make as few changes as possible the first and most important change was i planned to make the whole theme darker and aim for a 15 borderline 12A i would get Christopher Nolan to direct the film to try and give it a darker edge like the recent Batman Series. some verry important changes i would make is to cut the female character from the film eliminating all love interest as it could take the dark feel away i would also attempt to axe most of the monsters instead of having Frankenstien's Monster, Dracula, vampires, werewolves and Mr Hyde i would stick with just one enemy such as werewolves this could also lead to potential for a series of films each featuring different monsters as he tries to track down the killer of his family which would be the new plot of the film which ultimately ties in with modern day fears of losing family members in the first film i think a famous cast is needed i would keep Hugh Jackman as Van helsing but i would make the Antagonist for the first film Sean Bean as the head Werewolf.
