Screen Gems is just one step up from The Asylum, or SyFy in terms of movie quality. Still, Kate’s really hot.
“humans have discovered the existence of both Vampire and Lycan clans, and are conducting an all-out war to eradicate both immortal species”
If only (sigh).
Too bad this couldn’t happen in the universe Twilight occupies.
Is it called ‘Awakening’ because people fell asleep in the last installment?
Why does this series still exist? I get the vampire craze, but it tends to skew more girly and glittery.
Beckinsale is a good actor, has the hot factor, not bad as an action star, and if she wants to take the Milla Jovovich/Resident Evil route and churn out chapter after chapter of a who-gives-a-shit franchise, so be it.
Not interested in movie. Should just release new series: Kate Beckinsale is “Clad in Tight Leather”.
Honesty is always the best policy, after all.
