Van Helsing - The London Assignment

Taken out the comics, this movie takes us through another devil hunting journey of Van Helsing.
Many young women are murdered along the streets of London at the darkest hour of the night and Van Helsing is sent on the mission to stop the devil by the Vatican. The Vatican suspects the working of evil looking at the decomposing corpes, that seem to have lost their souls.
Van Helsing, with his trusted comrade monk tracks the problem down to the point that it is linked to the royal family - the Queen in some way.
Apparently the royal physician brings in medicine for the Queen in the darkest hour of the night and the Queen feels better, although she can't quite remember as to what ails her. The royal physician was a poor student of medicine, who was very much in love with the Queen in his younger days. Using his skills of science, he came up with a way to make her younger by taking the soul of younger women and putting it into her with the potion. At the same time, he takes a concoction that gives him superhuman strength to overpower any type of hindrances.
As Van Helsing is fighting the meek form of the physician, the physician is forced to drink the potion and become a monster. When the Queen sees the form, she is disgusted and leaves him. Van Helsing rescues the Queen and returns.
While at the end, it is shown the physician still lives..
An interesting movie. I have to say I found this version of Van Helsing much better than the movie with real actors. It seems less cheesy this way. And the tricks and action sequences are more believable in an animated environment compared to the real one. Worth a watch.
