An excellent Comic Vampire Killer romp with Wesley Snipes

Rating: 8/10 (23 March 2004)

From its thumping soundtrack, to atmospheric set design, Blade doesn't disappoint, even for non comic fans. This action packed Vampire Killer movie starts with a bang and is a feast for fans new comers alike. Snipes is excellent as the stone cold Blade, a half man half vampire with a mission,actually its more of a crusade to rid the world of all blood sucking Vampires. Blade isn't alone, Kris Kristofferson backs him up as whistler his weapon maker and mentor. Based in a world where the underworld is secretly run by vampires Blade uses all his super-human skills and weaponry to fight the war nobody knows about. The war against Vampires. With superb martial arts fight sequences and sword fights Wesley Snipes kicks and slashes his way to a climactic ending. You won't be comparing this one to Buffy.
