Actually FOX somehow didn't learn a bit from the experience of NIGHT WATCH (limited release with practically no advertizing and totally wrong commercials). They tried to sell it as a vampire flick, not as a fantasy story. Even the US DVD sucks, compared to the other regions.
This time around they are also going for a limited US release and I wouldn't be surprised if the sequel was a flop in the US, too.
