The first Blade
movie was produced in 1998 and is an American vampire superhero action firm.
The firm stars Wesley Snipes and Stephen Dorff, and they movie is loosely based
on the Marvel Comics character Blade. The main character is Blade, a human-vampire
hybrid who protects humans from vampires. There were two sequels made, Blade II and Blade: Trinity.
According to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blade_%28film%29,
A pregnant woman is treated in the hospital after
being bitten by a vampire, but the doctors mistake the wound for an animal
bite. They try to revive her, but she dies after they deliver her baby boy. The
boy inherits the superhuman strength, regenerative healing factor, blood lust,
and enhanced senses of vampires, but does not suffer their weaknesses, such as
garlic or sunlight. He grows up to be Blade,
the vampire hunter.
Several years later, Blade locates a vampire rave
club and kills most of the attendees, including the vampire Quinn, who he pins
to a wall and burns. When police and fire crews arrive, Blade escapes and the
police take Quinn's body to the morgue. As Dr. Karen Jenson carries out an autopsy with a
co-worker, Quinn returns to life and attacks. Blade rescues Jenson from Quinn
and flees to his base with Jenson while Quinn escapes. There, Blade and his
mentor/weapons technician Abraham Whistler attempt to prevent Jenson from
turning into a vampire.
Oddly enough, I have only seen the second and third movies
but I loved both of them. I enjoyed Blade’s cold sense of humor and the overall
thrill in the movies.
