Blade

Rating: 6/10 (8 July 2005)

I like horror films, and this is pretty much Dracula meets Kill Bill. Wesley Snipes plays Eric Brooks, also known as Blade, he is a defender of the human race who kills vampires with his huge blade and excellent martial arts skills. The only twist is that he used to be a vampire himself before Abraham Whistler (Kris Sristofferson) transformed him to the good side. Dr. Karen Jenson (N'Bushe Wright) was the victim of a vampire, her mother was even bitten by one, this explains her birth mark. Blade looks after her as she hides from other vampires. Meanwhile, villain leader of the vampire gang Deacon Frost (Stephen Dorff), plans to suck the blood out of all humans with his huge army of blood suckers. The violence is really good, the digital effects are intriguing, the martial arts are cool, and Wesley Snipes is the perfect actor for the role. Wesley Snipes was number 96 on The 100 Greatest Movie Stars. Good!
