if you're still in the mood

Rating: Null/10 (8 October 2008)

so if you're like me, you tried to watch lost boys: the tribe, and couldn't finish it cuz it was so tastelessly bad. albeit, you were still in the mood for a horror action movie, so you decided to watch the entire blade trilogy instead. now that you watched them all, you want to leave some commentary about the movies that nobody will probably read.
well this movie is a total sequel. it has a lame new evolved vampire enemy that everybody needs to fight. blade teams up with some trendy raver vampire ninjas to fight off the new threat.
blade 2 contains some pretty blatant, meaningless action sequences. to start out the whole adventure, blade is chilling with his crew in his hideout. some silent ninja vampires fall from the ceiling and attack his peeps. he fights one of the hot vampire babes in an exhaustedly long sword fight, while her partner stands around, picking his nose. eventually the vampire ninja says "stop!" and tells him they didn't come to fight but to deliver a message. why didn't he say that right away? dork.
later in the flick, blade is in the sewers with his vampire super-team, battling an army of neo-vampires. he detonates a box full of UV grenades, which fills the entire sewer with sunlight. the vampire babe sees the flash of UV coming and, having reflexes that are faster than the speed of light, takes cover.
so, yeah, this movie has some preposterous moments. still, it didn't make me groan, just laugh and shake my head. all in all, if you're in the mood for some gore and horror, blade 2 isn't really a waste of time.
