As a horror-Western hybrid, Uwe (Alone in the Dark) Boll's Bloodrayne 2 ranks below the underrated Sundown but far above 1966's Billy the Kid vs. Dracula, which means fans of the sexy video game vixen's movie career can expect campier chills here than in her previous big-screen effort in 2006. Model/actress Natassia Malthe takes over as Rayne in this feature, which takes place in the 19th-century American West and pits her against Billy the Kid (Zack Ward), an ancient vampire hellbent on establishing a foothold in the New World. With the help of legendary lawman Pat Garrett (legendary B-movie actor Michael Pare), Rayne forms a posse and sets out after the Stetson-wearing bloodsucker. Bloodrayne 2's agenda is simple and direct – it's hot girls in leather fighting vampires – and those expecting anything more should avoid at all costs. Viewers who want all that and nothing else should be pleased by the end results – Malthe looks attractive, and there are plenty of gun battles and martial arts face-offs on display. The unrated director's cut DVD includes commentary by Boll, interviews with the cast and crew, a smattering of deleted scenes, and a digital Bloodrayne comic book, which harkens back to the character's origins – and viewers can explore that courtesy the PC version of the game, which rounds out the extras. - Paul Gaita

2.0 out of 5 stars Western Fangfest, October 27, 2007

This review is from: BloodRayne 2 (Unrated) (DVD)

Based on a computer/console video game franchise developed by Terminal Reality, BLOODRAYNE 2: DELIVERANCE doesn't quite pick up after the first BloodRayne movie. Several hundred years have passed, and Rayne seems to have become a cowboy, er, cowgirl, in the meantime. Maybe a bounty hunter. I'm not quite sure because it was never revealed. With the time jump, the franchise gets even more convoluted and - to a degree - confusing.

Rayne is a dhampir, a cross between a vampire and a human, and her father was a Vampire King. In the original video game, Rayne was battling Nazis, and those are supposed to be the villains in the third movie. The sequel video game, which is included with the DVD to up the value packaging of the film, takes place in the present.

As it turns out, Rayne (Natassia Malthe) has come hunting Billy the Kid (Zack Ward) because, as everyone knows, Billy the Kid is a vampire hundreds of years old. She ends up riding with Pat Garrett (Michael Pare), who is a member of the Brimstone Society, the group of vampire hunters that's been around for hundreds of years.

Billy the Kid has ridden into the small town of Deliverance where he hopes to turn the children into vampires in time to take over the area. A train is about to start coming through the town and he'll have access to rapid transportation for his vampire gunslingers. Unfortunately for him, two of the kids he's captured were the children of Rayne's friends.

There's no way to know how or when Rayne got to meet these friends, but she has them. As soon as she knows that Billy the Kid's responsible for the deaths of the parents and the capture of the children, she rides off to mete out justice. She also meets Pat Garrett, who is hot on the trail of Billy the Kid himself. He offers to join forces, but - of course - she passes on that.

In Deliverance, it doesn't take Rayne long to get into more trouble than she can handle. She's quickly overcome and tossed into jail to be hung later.

The movie, even though it was billed as a horror-Western, really weighs in more heavily as a Western. The dialogue and the plot's movements and pacing pretty much mirror every B Western movie ever filmed. The hero confronts the villain, has to escape and regroup, then go out to recruit a group to come back and storm the villain's stronghold.

There's not much plot here, and even less character building. Thankfully Malthe can carry the barely-there costume and looks good doing martial arts. For some reason, though, the costume on the DVD cover actually looks more skimpy than the one she wears in the movie, and I honestly had to wonder if the DVD cover costume was just airbrushed in.

If you're not expecting much from the film, and I wasn't wanting anything more than a diversion with some martial arts mayhem, gunplay, snappy dialogue, and a hawt heroine, you'll probably get your money's worth. This is a DVD to sit down with your buddies with over a bowl of popcorn and prepare to lampoon the plot, the predictability, the pacing, and the characterization. That's what you do with campy horror movies.

I liked some of the look of the film. There were parts that had an edgy otherworldliness to them that worked. But even that was cheapened by the weak theatrics. One of the best parts was the trap Billy the Kid set for Rayne when he had the kids she'd come to save strung up from nooses. (Even that stretched credulity, though, because then you had to ask yourself why he'd go to all the trouble if he knew she was coming back. Why not set a better trap to kill her before she even got back into Deliverance?)

Unfortunately, both the beginning of the film and the end of it have fuzzy footage. I don't know what caused that, but it looks like straight footage you'd get off an ill-focused handheld video camera. I was entirely too aware of a film being shot and thinking how I would have tried to fix that than to enjoy the scenes.

This is director Uwe Boll's fourth movie adaptation, after ALONE IN THE DARK and HOUSE OF THE DEAD. Boll, and his projects, have all been the subject of heated discussion. There are plans for a third BloodRayne movie in the works.

This review is from: BloodRayne 2 (Unrated) (DVD)

BloodRayne 2 Deliverence is a new story setting for Rayne that is unique and imaginative.This installment dosen't follow any of the video game lore,but still ends up being a cool idea.I am one of the biggest BloodRayne fans in the world that has both video games,all three movies,and a tattoo of bloodrayne on my back and even with all the mixed reviews I was very satisfied with BloodRayne2.Natassia Malthe picks up the role of Rayne,that is half vampire-half human,and mixes it up with merciless vampire cowboys led by Billy the Kid.Rayne sets off to find the vampire cowboys to avenge the death of a close friend and the taking of the friends children.Her adventure leads her to the town of Deliverence which is under control of Billy and his vampire bunch.Rayne gets some assistance from Pat Garrett which is a member of the Brimstone Society and is tracking down Billy as well.Rayne then really sets the town alive from then on.Natassia is sexy as hell with a black leather outfit that will set your heart racing while doing a very good job protraying Ryane in the process.As far as the so-called flaws that exsist if you are a true BloodRayne fan you will take the good with the bad of Rayne in a new setting,but still doing what she does best in slicing and dicing her vampire foes into dust. If you love blood and gore dished out by one kick-ass blade wielding vixen then you will enjoy this if you are a true BloodRayne fan.Bottom line BloodRayne Rocks!!!

I honestly don't get some of you people. Some movies are MEANT to suck (pun intended).

B movies and the like are not made w/the purpose of winning mainstream awards. They exist to give people in the industry a training ground and to give viewers a way to pass the time (when reading, watching a GOOD flick, or enjoying the great outdoors aren't on the menu).

The plot: Dhampir in the Wild West, out to save Deliverance from Billy the Kid (who is a vampire). She fails, escapes, forms a posse, and eventually "saves the day".

For dudes: she looks hot and can read and deliver lines better than Denise Richards.

For ladies: If you like pseudo "karate" fighting, western gun-slinging, and blood, this might work for you.

Much is written about how AWFUL Uwe Boll(sp?) is as a director. That may be. But, frankly, I am not impressed by Eli Roth, who seems to think naked women, diced and sliced every which way, make a good film (see also Saw I - 2 thousand.)

If you expect nothing more than the opportunity to while away the time and move on to the better video game, this should work for you.

Seriously, lighten up.
