Underworld: Movie Review, DVD Review, Blu-ray Disc Review

Sliding into the gutter of underwhelming movies is the Blu-ray release of "Underworld," a shallow, over-stylized movie in which Kate Beckinsale is a gun-wielding vamp out to kill a hive of werewolves.

The special effects are good and they do create a stylized mood of dread, particularly in high-definition, but the story drags like a corpse.

The movie is a gloomy confusion of underdeveloped ideas that wants to be a supernatural version of Shakespeare’s Romeo and Juliet (for real!), but it dies one bloody boring death along the way.

Rated R. Grade D+.
