The first official trailer for director Kevin Munroe's (TMNT) new movie, Dylan Dog: Dead of Night has just been released. Oh, you've already seen a trailer? True, an unofficial promo trailer was leaked online several months ago, and several Italian-dubbed trailers have previously been released, but this is the first official U.S. theatrical trailer for the big screen adaptation of the mega-popular Italian comic book series Dylan Dog created by Tiziano Sclavi that stars Brandon "Superman" Routh as Dylan Dog, a paranormal investigator with the ability to see the supernatural creatures hiding in plain sight all around us.

Tired of the waking nightmare that his life has become, Dylan Dog packs his bags and moves to New Orleans to try to find some peace. However, a series of events involving a missing artifact, a beautiful heiress and a brutal murder conspire to drag him back into the world of the undead. Sam Huntington, Taye Diggs, Peter Stormare and Anita Briem also star.



Dylan Dog: Dead of Night opens April 29th!

Official or unofficial, it is still painful to watch the monotone and uncharismatic Routh try to act.

I will watch it.

I know, I know, Routh is stiff, the monsters are dorky and the voiceover is t-e-r-r-i-b-l-e, but...just like Angelus, I too will watch this.

Well, it will probably end up being one of those that I just can't seem to bring up to the top three of my Netflix queue. I'd think I would rather watch Dean Cain in a made for SyFy movie...which is reeeeeally stretching it :-p

a comedy? this cant be for real.

Yeah, it seems like a poor man's Constantine to me, but it looks bad enough to be good.

@InFamouslyCool: "comedy-tinged horror thriller"

Looks pretty faithful to the original comic, too bad its not a popular enough comic for people to be that interested in the film. I'll check it out definitely tho, Routh was cool in Scott Pilgrim and looks the part on this.

@marvel72: I agree with you on that. MIB movies blow. Actually, pretty much all of Will Smith's movies blow. Bad Boys, Independence Day, Hancock, I Robot, I Am Legend...has he made any good movies?

Looks better than Superman Returns.

@Ceejay: I did like Routh's super-vegan role in Scott Pilgrim. He was pretty badass.

Routh is more muscular than in Superman Returns!

I'll pass it though.

It dont look too bad for a TV series.. but a movie? I may just catch it on HBO when it comes out. IMO

For some reason I really dont like Sam Huntington as an actor.. I tried watching Being Human but he kills it for me..

@Freedom: I agree. He's a lamer version of Shia LaBeouf IMO.

It is kind of funny that he was Jimmy Olsen in Superman Returns, though, considering he's Routh's sidekick in this, too.

this looks like a straight to DVD movies you find on one of those free-movie site weeks after its release (you had no idea of).

Looks like a fun movie. I'll check it out at Redbox.

It doesn't look like Dylan Dog at all: it looks like a sort of "Man in Black with monsters".
They're doing the same things they did to Hellblazer, possibly worse...

He can do Wonderman, yeah I can see it. I think I might see this, looks like it has some potential

This movie is just a hollow shell of the real Dylan Dog.

This looks just as good as Buffy (yes, the tv show and no, Gellar or Boreanaz can't act any better than Routh). Same phoned in performances, same type of crappy prosthetic monstrosities and same lame, below par action effects. Buffy's only excuse is that it was on tv. Let's face it, the quality of the show put straight on the big screen would look exactly like this film. So this should also go straight to TV and save some bucks & embarrassment. Hell, they might even get a cult following.

Superman Routh?? LOL. You are still in denial. More like Brandon " I Love a D.i.c.k in my Mouth" Routh

@JayTopStix: Ouch! He wasn't that bad, was he? I thought Lois was waaaay worse. At least Routh had something of Reeve's bumbling Clark Kent right.
