Things are going according to plan at the start of the new trailer for Underworld: Blood Wars. Dark setting, werewolves, slow motion gun fights... but then something happens. Kate Beckinsale’s character goes North to the Wall.
Wait, wrong franchise. Though, things certainly take a Game of Thrones turn there for a second. Then they meet Elsa from Frozen and through her, Seline is “reborn” into some kind of non-stop killer ghost. Check it out.
I have no idea what’s happening in this trailer but, I must say, Selene’s rebirth into a mink-wearing mist definitely turns things up a notch. It gives an otherwise expected story (a new villain rising) a kick in the teeth. Which is probably a good thing for a fifth film in a franchise.
Underworld Blood Wars, directed by Anna Foerster, opens January 6.

Can anyone summarize the plot so far? I stopped watching at whichever movie it is where they wake up ‘elders’ or some shit and I can barely remember that one.
