VIKTOR Is an Underappreciated Character | Underworld Analysis

Viktor is an Underappreciated Character Back in the 2000s, the Underworld series became one of the most well-known action horror franchises ever made. Through its first three films, Underworld, Underworld Evolution, and Underworld: Rise of the Lycans, the series capitalized on the growing demand for grit and darkness in otherwise ridiculous stories, and while it may not have had the critical acclaim of films like Blade, it helped fill out what was, at least at the time, a fairly niche genre in vampire action. Of course, it also saturated itself with many contemporary cliches, including some of the most extreme uses of skin-tight leather. However, though people often remember the franchise for its dark, moody aesthetic, grimy practical effects, and of course, Kate Beckinsale, its characters and lore often seem to go relatively unnoticed. For an action horror, its characters and setting, which were increasingly expanded upon during the first three films, often outshined much of its mainstream competition. Rewatching the series recently, I found myself much more invested in the complexities of some of its characters than I thought I would be, and Viktor in particular stood out as the character that seemed to push past many of the series' limitations and become something closer to Game of Thrones than any early 2000s vampire action movie character should be allowed to.
