Decent and acceptable follow-up with the mythical Vampire Hunter : part man, part vampire , all hero , containing several surprises , gory scenes and plot twists . Again Blade : Wesley Snipes at his coolest , he is a half-vampire, half-human daywalker against an army of immortals , one warrior must draw first blood . This time he faces off a new race of sinister and really hungry Vampires . At the beginning , Blade attempts to rescue his grizzled mentor Whistler : Kristopherson , from the vamps who have been holding him prisoner. Again Blade join forces Kris Kristpherson along with a rebel young : Norman Reedus. Then , Blade is offered a truce by vampire overload Damaskinos : Thomas Kretschmann who needs Blade to hunt an even more deadly enemy who is attempting to unleash a vampire apocalypse upon humanity so he can take over. The power of an immortal . The soul of a human . The heart of a hero.

This thrilling film delivers frantic action, visceral violence , spectacular combats and loads of blood and gore . It is almost similar to previous part , though here ther are more, more, more approach , more Vampires , more battles , more gore. This time the creepy and scary enemy result to be rat-like Reapers feed on both humans and vampires and they bite turns their victims into insatiable bloodsuckers themselves.
