DVD Reviews: Hellsing Volume 1: Impure Souls


The Final Say!

Feature Score:
7/10
DVD Extras Score:
4/10

Reviewed by Lindsay Stevenson
Review Date: 7 March 2003
Distributed by:
The AV Channel
Running Time: 75 Minutes

This DVD contains 3 episodes and introduces us to the Hellsing Organisation, dedicated to banishing the impure souls into eternal damnation. Run by Integra Hellsing, they protect the world while humanity goes about their everyday lives.  There is some language in this movie and lots of “blood” so not a movie for the very young. 

Chief amongst them is Arucard a mysterious rogue vampire and big hitter for Hellsing, sporting one of the biggest handguns in Anime.  Arucard transforms “Police Girl Seras Victoria in the first episode and this story also follows her trying to come to grips with the duties as part of the Hellsing Organisation and with being a vampire herself. 

Artificially spawned vampires have been appearing and the 3 episodes leave you wondering where from and wanting more. 

Animation and sound are well done and the DVD also features a Trailer Music Video, in addition to Bilingual Audio, English Subtitles, Creditless Opening and Concept Gallery.

01: The Undead
02: Club M
03: Sword Dancer
