Rating: Null/10 (4 January 1999)

Wesley Snipes stars as the tortured soul, Blade possessing powers greater than any man or creature of the night. Blade sharpens his lethal skills under the guidance of a professional vampire hunter. When the bloodthirsty Immortals' lord, Deacon Frost, declares war on the human race, Blade is humanity's last hope for survival. It´s a comic/action/horror/thriller/sci-fi movie and it´s captivating, furious and fast. Blade is known as The Daywalker because he can walk in the sunlight but is thirst for blood. Wesley Snipes is excellent as blade and Steven Dorff is OK as the evil Frost bud Kris Kristofferson does not fit in as Abraham Whistler. I did not like Stephen Norrington direction and the blood and gore is enough to fill several movies. The film is a lot like Robert Rodriguez's From Dusk Till Dawn so if you liked it you´ll love this one. I thought is was good and it made a great DVD.
