Review of the Dub movie.

Pros:
1. The Vampire was a cool designed villain, not like the usual cliche anime movie villain.

Cons:
1. The dub voice in this movie for Goku is terrible, he sounds like hes always whispering ...

Shots were dragged and panned needlessly, and it feels like for the era, especially for a movie, that is sorta lazy. The strongest comparison is probably Angel's Egg for me, whose animation is nothing but near masterful, with much ...
