"Dracula II: Ascension" is a sequel to "Dracula 2000," with the ageless vampire again returning from apparent extinction. The twist is that Dracula's blood will be used by a researcher to reverse the effects of a crippling disease.

One is asked to withstand a whole lot of high-tech jibber-jabber delivered by blank-faced performers before you get to the good stuff.
Maybe Wes Craven can start 'presenting' better horror films because Wes Craven Presents Dracula II: Ascension is a disappointing straight-to-video sequel.
The only use for reviews of disposable, interchangeable garbage is to offer puerile consumer reports information.
...the filmmakers splatter the screen with buckets of blood, severed heads, and gory, close-up autopsies, but while all this may be gross and disgusting, it's not scary.
The ending leaves open the way to yet another sequel... Now, that's scary.
The setup, which includes a subplot about a powerful vampire slayer named Uffizi, is quite good, but the execution is bland.
If you're looking for a DVD rental with a little bite and a lot of fun, then I recommend Dracula II: Ascension.
a polished, well-toned feature..does the all too rare bustle of improving on its predecessor, whilst playing an interesting spin on the Transylvania prodigy.
A gripping and creepy edge of your seat thriller that's packed with non-stop suspense and riveting terror. A slick and very cool sequel. You might want to leave the lights on with this one, it grabs you and never wants to let you go. An intense and chilling horror film. A terrifying and wickedly entertaining sequel

What a gore in this vampire direct-to-video sequel and Jason Scott Lee's okay as a vampire hunter.
