Trivia

The effect of the vampire brides' flying forms was pulled off by having the face and hair of the actresses made up as it would appear in the film and having them wear motion capture suits and film them against green screen. The appearance of the three brides is based on the brides in Dracula. Ironically, Silvia Colloca played the queen bride as Monica Bellucci did and the two have been compared often. Also, the fair haired vampire (Marishka) dies first in both movies. See more »

Goofs

Continuity: Despite having been heavily wounded, indeed loosing his arm, neither Mr. Hyde nor his alter ego Dr. Jekyll bleeds. Even if Hyde does not, for some strange reason, bleed, he should have done so when changed back into Jekyll. See more »
