Sex & Nudity

  • Anna and Van Helsing passionately kiss for a few seconds, no nudity.
  • Two vampires named Aleera and Verona kiss and caress Dracula's neck. (The two women are his wives).
  • A woman asks a man what she can do to repay him for saving her life. He whispers in his ear and she replies saying, "You can't do that." He tells her that he can and we see them waking up together the next morning. (She is in a corset and a nightgown; he in his nightgown)
  • Dracula and Anna dance together. She is wearing a low-cut ball gown. He appears to have some kind of supernatural hold over her and is seen caressing her cleavage as she tries to protest.
  • Van Helsing and Anna fall to the ground. She lands on top of him with her crotch near his face.

Violence & Gore

  • Most of the violence is between werewolves and vampires throughout. There's no blood apart from one scene.
  • A man draws a sword on the other. As one steps forward, the man with the sword stabs it straight through him. He bares his fangs and bites the man's neck. (The squishing sound of the sword is heard and seen protruding through his back. The actual timing of the killing is seen in silhouette but blood is seen on the vampire's mouth after.)
  • A man is tied to a tree and attacked by a werewolf. He manages to jump up the tree as a woman lunges towards the werewolf with a sword.
  • A werewolf is locked in a cage and shot at. (Goo is seen spurting from the wolf.) It escapes and chases a woman to a cliff edge. Before it attacks her, a man jumps in the way; falling off the cliff and into a river below along with the werewolf.
  • A werewolf and vampire fight each other. They snap and snarl at each other, flinging each other across the room. The werewolf bites into the vampire's neck. A large wound is seen, gushing black-ish blood and the vampire begins writhing around before disintegrating.
  • A female vampire is shot with an arrow doused in holy water. She is pinned to the roof of a building, screams in pain and disintegrates.
  • A female vampire is hit by hundreds of silver stakes. She is shown disintegrating as she falls through the air.
  • A woman stabs a female vampire in the chest with a stake. The vampire screams in pain and bubbles away in green goo.
  • Various other fights between vampires, humans and werewolves throughout the movie. The ones listed above are the main fight scenes.

Profanity

  • Four mild obscenities, nine religious exclamations.

Alcohol, Drugs & Smoking

  • Dr. Hyde is seen smoking a cigar
  • A woman declares that a man deserves a drink. Vampires drink blood in wine glasses. Various scenes of casual drinking.

Frightening & Intense Scenes

  • Lots of intensity.
  • The fights between werewolves, vampires and humans can be intense/violent and frightening to children. The werewolves transformation is intense and scary for young children. Female vampires change into demonic winged creatures. Dracula changes into a demonic winged creature (along the same lines as the female vamps but on a much larger scale). Frankestein's monster may be scary to young children. The demonic vampire children may be frightening.
  • The ending may be sad to viewers.
