They Actually Made It!! The Trailer For UNDERWORLD: RISE OF THE LYCANS Is Here!!


Merrick here...


Apple has posted a trailer for UNDERWORLD: RISE OF THE LYCANS.

Bill Nighy is back, but Len Wiseman isn't directing this installment because he was busy screwing up DIE HARD & attaching himself to numerous projects he should probably stay away from.

Patrick Tatopoulos directed this instead - Geeks may recall that he's a designer/FX lord of many high-profile films. Some of his earliest work was back in Emmerich & Devlin's STARGATE and INDEPENDENCE DAY. He later went on to other stuff like PITCH BLACK, AvP, and much more.

Also not returning is Kate Beckinsale - the fetishistically agreeable female personage this time around is Rhona Mitra (DOOMSDAY).

I can't quite put my fingers on why, but something about this trailer screams '80s. Maybe it's shamelessly over-the-top lines like "We can be slaves, or we can be Lycans!". Maybe it's the idea that a dude who turns into a friggin' werewolf is loudly asserting that he isn't an "animal". I think I get the distinction they're going for here, but...ya know?

SEE FOR YOURSELF!!!
