History YMMV / StanHelsing

* RetroactiveRecogntion: Yes, the Creator/DesiLydic of this film is the same Desi Lydic who would later become a correspondent on ''Series/TheDailyShow''.

* EvilIsSexy: The vampire strippers, who are even more MsFanservice than Nadine and Mia. Since the movie implies that they are the literal brides of Dracula and thus side with him despite all of his evil and they are drop-dead gorgeous, they certainly count as this.

* SugarWiki/AwesomeMusic: The monsters parody of Y.M.C.A.

* TearJerker: Stan and Nadine's break up. Although it is PlayedForLaughs, the amount of realism it had could be hard on some who've had similar problems. Nadine broke up with Stan because she realized that he was really a selfish jerk who didn't care for others. [[spoiler: He gets better by the end of the movie]], but it's still a bit sad.
* UnacceptableTargets: The Catholic jokes are very outdated and aren't as funny to most viewers.

* SugarWiki/HeartwarmingMoments: Stan and Nadine [[spoiler: getting back together in the end of the film. They hated each other so much in the beginning and they received so much character development by the end. They both become kinder people and salvage a love they thought was dead. It's probably the ''only'' loving moment in the entire film.]]

* AccidentalAesop: Although the film seems like a no-nonsense parody at first, it teaches a valuable lesson in the end. Stan learns to become nicer and a better person by showing compassion towards others and confronting his problems. The movie indirectly informs the audience that you can become a greater person by treating others with respect and accepting when you need to deal with your troubles.
