Movie Reviews of Hellsing Ultimate Vol. 1 (Limited Edition w/ Figurine) (2006)
Movie Review: New series, same quality
Summary: 5 Stars
Hellsing fans, of either the manga or TV series, can expect only the highest of quality with the series in any incarnation it takes, and Ultimate doesn't let its viewers down. The first episode covers the first manga volume (Vampire Hunter, Master of Monster, Murder Club, and Sword Dancer) to a lesser or greater extent, and does it captivatingly with excellent animation and voice acting, and competent music, though notably inferior to the TV series. Extras include a commentary and interview with Crispin Freeman, Alucard's voice actor.
Summary of Hellsing Ultimate Vol. 1 (Limited Edition w/ Figurine) (2006)
For over a century, the Hellsing Organization has been secretly protecting the British Empire from the undead "freaks." When Sir Integra Hellsing succeeded as the head of the organization, she also inherited the ultimate weapon against these undead enemies, a rogue vampire named Arucard.Armed with an enormous "anti-freak" gun and possessing mysterious and frightening powers, Arucard is forced to shoot Seras Victoria, a policewoman held hostage by a vampire. "Do you want to live?" he asks Seras, whose very answer changes the course of her existence. Now reborn as Arucard's servant, Seras is torn between her conflicting humanity and her vampire urges...
The Ultimate OVA series (2006) continues the popular vampire hunter broadcast series Hellsing (2001), both of which were based on the manga by Kouta Hirano. Vampires are stalking England, which means Sir Integra Hellsing must take them out. Most of this 50-minute segment is devoted to a duel between Hellsing's super-vampire Arucard and Father Alexander Anderson, a bio-engineered vampire in the service of the Vatican's murderous Iscariot Organization. It's a veritable gorefest, but not a particularly original one: the shooting effects are copied from T2, while the ghouls recall The Night of the Living Dead. The dialogue is often unintentionally hilarious: "It's been a while since I had my head cut off." Viewers may be repulsed by the endless sprays of blood, the leering sadism, and misappropriation of religious symbols. The tin-boxed Limited Edition comes with a second disc of extras that includes staff interviews and a promotional music video. (Rated 16 and older, but more appropriate for 18 and older: graphic violence, violence against women, sadism, sexual situations, grotesque imagery, offensive religious imagery, tobacco use) --Charles Solomon
