The early\xa0aughts saw Stephen Sommers riding high with the Universal monsters following\xa0the success of his Mummy films, so it seemed only natural that he would try his hand with a straight-up monster mash that featured Dracula, Frankenstein, and the Wolf Man. The result was Van Helsing, a Hugh\xa0Jackman star vehicle that made money at the box office but failed to kickstart\xa0a franchise thanks to tepid reviews and the violent rejection of fans. Join Sebastian, Jennifer and Rodney as they scream into spooky season with a lively debate over the vampiric value of this ludicrously bombastic blockbuster.
