* During the scene when Anna confronts the werewolf in Castle Valerious, she pulls a flintlock pistol from a case and pulls back the hammer. While filming the scene, Stephen Sommers said the "click" of the hammer needed to be louder, and told Creator/KateBeckinsale ''"I need a bigger cock."'' She looked at him, then at the gun, and deadpanned, ''"[[DoubleEntendre Don't we all]]."''

** Another funny blooper: as Van Helsing is taking out his blowpipe to put Frankenstein's monster to sleep before confronting Dracula in Budapest, Jackman is just slightly too rough with it and accidentally breaks the prop, giving an embarrassed laugh when he realizes what happened.

* Our first proper introduction to Aleera is her zooming out of the well in the village and carrying her off, literally with her foot. She then taunts "do you like to FLY, Anna" and cackles so much that she doesn't notice Anna pulling out a knife and slicing her foot to free herself.
** Anna is then immediately caught by Verona, who we can assume was lying in wait, probably knowing Aleera would mess up that way.
** She then has to save Marishka's ass minutes later when Carl nearly armed Van Helsing with holy water because she was too busy taunting. She tells Marishka to hurry up and kill him in a tone of voice that says "I'm SurroundedByIdiots".
* EvilIsPetty in action. Aleera sneaks up behind Anna and Carl in the room with the werewolf cure, and scares them with her NightmareFace.
--> '''Aleera:''' Did I scare you?
--> '''Carl:''' (''shaking his head a little too much'') [[BlatantLies No]].
** She then takes too long to cackle once again, and again Anna just pushes the jar full of acid (?) over so that it breaks and splashes all over Aleera's face.
* Velkan attacks the carriage, sending Van Helsing and Anna dangling over either side. Carl opens the door to help, and gets a start when he realises that his side is now at the edge of a cliff.
--> '''Carl:''' [[ComicallyMissingThePoint What are you doing out here?]]
--> '''Anna:''' Carl!
* Van Helsing gives Anna a weapon to keep Igor in line, saying to clip off one of his fingers if he tries to betray them. Anna says [[GroinAttack "I'll clip off something"]]. And later, she brandishes the thing at him to get Igor to hurry up.

* From the animated prologue; the amazing holy water super soaker.



* In the animated prequel, one of the fights between Van Helsing and Hyde ends with Van Helsing on an out-of-control train. He gets it to stop just as it arrives at a station where Carl is waiting.
--> '''Carl:''' Van Helsing? How'd you get here?
--> '''Van Helsing:''' [[DeadpanSnarker I put on the brakes]].

** Even funnier is that Carl starts apologizing immediately after causing the ruckus-- he knew he'd piss off everyone with this little stunt just to amuse himself.

* Shortly after Velkan attacks the heroes, Van Helsing tracks him to the local cemetery where the local undertaker is digging a new grave because "you never know when you might need a fresh one," and then he tries to wallop Van Helsing with his shovel. When Van Helsing blocks him, he quickly apologizes in a not-too-convincing way, then is immediately killed as Van Helsing ducks out of the way of Velkan leaping at him from behind. The undertaker rolls ''perfectly'' into one of the graves he just dug, his shovel sticks into the ground, and his hat lands on the shovel. That's ''just'' the kind of corniness that makes this movie great!
