BLADE

 

Blade is a 1998 film starring Wesley Snipes and Stephen Dorff.

The film is based on the Marvel comics and is based around the idea of vampires being real things in the world. Snipes stars as Blade who is half human half vampire or as they call him "DAYWALKER". The film is mainly about Blade trying to defeat vampires and also stop Deacon Frost (Dorff) and his plan to be the number one vampire and rule over all humans.

 

At the time the film was released it was very gorey and graphic with people being killed but nowadays it seems very average compared with other films. The fight scenes are awesome and the story progresses from finding out who blade is and how he became what he is. Towards the end of the film we find out that Frost was the one who turned Blades mother into a vampire and he decides to get revenge by killing Frost.

 

However this was not the end of the film as we find out their is to be a sequal. At the end of the film Blade goes to Russia and finds one of Frosts minions who tells him bigger things are about to happen.

 

 

The film is about 14 years old now but i still think it is a great film. Snipes and Dorff give great performances and the fight scenes are great.

 

I'd advise anyone who hasn't ever seen it to watch it.
