A place to talk about movies--Old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.
This means that the world is ending, right?
No, just Kingsley's good reputation.
ETA: Oh God! It's made by the same guy who made House of the Dead. The movie which actually cut to scenes from the source video game as transitions between shots.
If anyone in L.A. needs their lawn mowed, now might be a good time to call Ben's agent. (Assuming he still has one...)

That survived SPECIES?
Well, he made an Elizabethan romantic comedy with Mira Sorvino after that one, so there were still tatters.
From here on out it'll be all late-night infomercials and "Where are they now?" specials on A&E.

And of course GANDHI 2: Electric Boogaloo.
He did Sexy Beast. He'll be fine. Those British guys are weird.
Many venerable actors have done things throughout their careers that would seem to have blown up their world. Take Sean Connery, for instance. The guy did, Zardoz, Sir Gawain and the Green Knight, and The Avengers and he's still going stronger than ever.

See also, Michael Caine who seems to alternate periods of choosing great roles with extended periods of doing absolute crap.
What I should have said was if his rep survived SPECIES he's probably OK.

Yes, but as he's in EVERY MOVIE EVER MADE it's a bit difficult to avoid the crap ones.
I like that about Michael Caine -- it's like he's still a working class guy, so he wants to make sure there's a next paycheck coming.

I'm sure Ben feels the same way.
Odd that the movie is set in the 18th Century, when the game was set during just prior to WWII. At least in the game you got to kill lots of Nazis in elaborately bloodthirsty ways...including feeding off them to boost your health.
eta: I see BloodRayne2 is about to come out but this one is set 60 years later (mid 90s I guess).
Oh and according to the site:
BloodRayne is a dhampir, born from the unnatural union of vampire and human. Blessed with the powers of a vampire but cursed with the unquenchable thirst for blood and a weakness to sunlight, Rayne is challenged with her most personal battle yet in BloodRayne 2.
uhuh
