Don't watch this if you hate needles

Seriously, every time you look somebody is getting jabbed in the arm or neck and some blood removed. Anyway, the show concerns the vampires and the lycans (werewolves) who've been battling each other for centuries. That's pretty much the whole plot right there as the two sides engage in battle after battle. Into the mess steps a human who for ill-explained reasons holds the genetic key that might end the war. So now each side is trying to get him, apparently because they don't want the war to end!! Not much of a story really.
Best part of the movie is Kate Beckinsale as one of the main vampires. She is extremely beautiful - maybe too beautiful for this role. She was also the star of Cold Comfort Farm and had a similar impact on that film. By her beauty alone, turned a pointless movie into a watchable one.
