Some entertaining inventiveness, before nagging limitations finally drag it down. Read full review

Mike Scott

An unapologetic B-movie, Dylan Dog: Dead of Night tries mightily to cover its flaws with a peppering of humor -- much of it supplied courtesy of Dylan's zombie sidekick, played by Sam Huntington -- and an at-times fun "Buffy the Vampire Hunter" vibe. Read full review

Dylan Dog isn't a terrible movie, just one that feels like a tepid mishmash of secondhand concepts, never developing a distinctive atmosphere or unique personality of its own. Read full review

Brings vampires, werewolves, zombies, detective noir and spoofy comedy together for a murky genre gumbo with barely any flavor. Read full review

Director Munroe (TMNT) is clearly a fan and attempted his best on an admittedly limited budget, but some things just don't translate that well. Throw this dog a bone? No need, he's already got a closetful. Read full review

Dylan Dog feels like its ideas were stolen from western entertainment-a mash-up of sexy vampires, burly werewolves, and comical-gross zombies-which Hollywood then stole back from the Europeans, forgetting that other movies have explored that evil terrain thoroughly, exhaustively and better.

Film noir is combined with horror to zero effect in Dylan Dog: Dead of Night. Read full review

This ain't Dylan Dog this is Dylan Dog **** Go watch Dellamorte Dellamore (AKA Cemetery Man) instead which is also based on Dylan Dog, it's now out on Blu Ray too in Europe - go to Amazon to check out this brilliant movie. Ignore this low budget TV movie, as I said it's Dog ****

I can see why film critics don't like it, but they're not the audience it was made for. If you're a fan of urban fantasy on the page or on the small screen then you'll love this. Think Kate Daniels + Harry Dresden with the production values of a good episode of Supernatural. Take it as aI can see why film critics don't like it, but they're not the audience it was made for.

Take it as a stand-alone though as it strays majorly from source.… Expand

I enjoyed it. It is definately more of a b movie! Sam huntington is very funny. It's like a slueth film with a monster angle. The budget wasnt very high and it shows but still not bad
