Movies that feel likeUnderworld: Evolution (2006)

As the war between the vampires and the Lycans rages on, Selene, a former member of the Death Dealers (an elite vampire special forces unit that hunts werewolves), and Michael, the werewolf hybrid, work together in an effort to unlock the secrets of their respective bloodlines.

If you loved Underworld: Evolution, the closest films we have are Live Free or Die Hard (2007), Curse of the Golden Flower (2006) and Nikita (1990). All three share Underworld: Evolution's kinetic feel, which is what we rank on before quality.

Seen the big three already? The under-the-radar pick below is Hellboy II: The Golden Army (2008).
