The live-action remake of the cult 2000 anime of the same name, Blood: The Last Vampire follows half-human-half-vampire Saya as she hunts down other vampires on the search for the highest ranking Onigen.

Something of a classic horror-thriller meets the visual exploration of Hero and Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, Blood: The Last Vampire suffers from a stuttering narrative at times that comes around for the cliched ending but offers more than enough fun along the way and will please fans of the original, even if it doesn’t best it.
