This wasn't great. 

Don't get me wrong it was through the book our the window bad, but I have seen this idea done better. Which probably makes me cruel to say it. 

I have seem Mina portrayed as she is and Dracula as a redeemed man but done better by Goss. 

I think that the Cthulu references felt totally irrelevant and inconsistent and merely with an excuse to fanfiction some Lovecraft. 

I suppose part of my issue is that I felt Watson as a vampire felt weird. 

And for the love of God can we please stop falling back on Moriarty as the big bad.
