Blade Dvd Sci Fi Action Movie

Wesley Snipes plays a half-mortal, half-immortal charged with ridding the earth of a race of vampires led by Stephen Dorff in this action- packed blockbuster.

Blade is a 1998 American superhero horror film directed by Stephen Norrington and written by David S. Goyer, based on the Marvel Comics superhero of the same name created by Marv Wolfman and Gene Colan.[4] It is the first installment in the Blade trilogy. The film stars Wesley Snipes as the titular character with Stephen Dorff, Kris Kristofferson, and N'Bushe Wright in supporting roles. In the film, Blade is a Dhampir, a human with vampire strengths but not their weaknesses, who together with his mentor Abraham Whistler and hematologist Karen Jenson, fights against vampires, namely the exceptionally vicious Deacon Frost.

Blade was released in the United States on August 21, 1998, and was a commercial success, grossing $70 million at the U.S. box office, and $60.2 million worldwide. Despite mixed reviews from film critics, the film received a positive reception from audiences and has since garnered a cult following. It is also hailed as one of Snipes's signature roles.

Blade was noted as a dark superhero film for its time, as well as being Marvel's first successful film and setting the stage for further comic book film adaptations. It was followed by two sequels, Blade II (2002) and Blade: Trinity (2004), both written by Goyer who also directed the latter.
