Underworld : Rise of the lycans

Continuing the story from the very beginning

"Underworld : Rise of the lycans" is a prequel showing the background behind the story you already know if you've watched part 1 and 2 which are stated in the modern days.

The vampire lord in the past keeps lycans for slaves and pets. He also made a deal with the humans to save them from the lycans in the wild for high taxes they've got to pay to him. And everyone who doesn't pay will just die. It has been going like this for years when one amongst them, Lucian, decides to rise against the empire. Together with his secret lover Sonja, the daughter of the king, he goes to battle for freedom.

If you enjoyed the first two movies, you will also like this prequel. However it is set somewhere in the dark age and conditions to make it look really cool with nice effects are harder. Still the movie has a lot of good points and I liked it. It continues the movie series very well without much confusion.
