In late 2000, the horror movie, Dracula 2000 (aka Dracula 2001) flew into cinemas. The film – conceived as a modern take on the iconic vampire mythology – starred Gerard Butler and followed the story of Count Dracula as he is resurrected in the 21st Century.

But despite some well-known names amongst its cast, as well as a contemporary setting, Dracula 2000 failed to find an audience and it subsequently flopped at the box office. However, thanks to some interest on the home video market, when the film was released on VHS/DVD it was able to gain a second wind.

This second wind convinced producers to push ahead with a collection of sequels, expanding Dracula 2000 beyond just one movie. But how many Dracula 2000 movies are there and what is the correct viewing order?

For all those details and more, keep reading.
