QUICK TAKE:
Action horror: In modern-day New Orleans, a private investigator delves into the not-so-underground world of vampires, werewolves, and zombies to solve a murder.
PLOT:
Dylan Dog (BRANDON ROUTH) is a private investigator who previously specialized in solving crimes and keeping private the affairs of vampires, werewolves, and zombies in modern-day New Orleans. But the tragic death of his girlfriend and his subsequent revenge rampage against the monster elders caused him and his loyal assistant Marcus (SAM HUNTINGTON) to just focus on normal occasions, such as insurance fraud and marital infidelity among humans.

Into their lives comes Elizabeth (ANITA BRIEM), a beautiful young woman whose father was just murdered by a werewolf. At first, Dylan refuses to help her. But when Marcus is attacked and transformed into a member of the undead, he starts hitting up all of his old contacts. Among them is the local head werewolf named Gabriel (PETER STORMARE); his son, Wolfgang (KURT ANGLE); and the local head vampire and nightclub owner Vargas (TAYE DIGGS).

He soon learns that all concerned are hunting for a mythical artifact that Elizabeth's smuggler father may have obtained that will awaken an ancient demon who will help its master rule over the entire world. It's up to Dylan and the newly reanimated Marcus to make sure that doesn't happen.

WILL KIDS WANT TO SEE IT?
Teenagers who are into all things vampire may have some interest.
WHY THE MPAA RATED IT: PG-13
