Blade II ***
(Third Viewing)

A rare mutation has occurred within the vampire community. The Reaper. A vampire so consumed with an insatiable bloodlust that they prey on vampires as well as humans, transforming victims who are unlucky enough to survive into Reapers themselves. Now their quickly expanding population threatens the existence of vampires, and soon there won't be enough humans in the world to satisfy their bloodlust. Blade, Whistler (Yes, he's back) and an armory expert named Scud are curiously summoned by the Shadow Council. The council reluctantly admits that they are in a dire situation and they require Blade's assistance. Blade then tenuously enters into an alliance with The Bloodpack, an elite team of vampires trained in all modes of combat to defeat the Reaper threat. Blade's team and the Bloodpack are the only line of defense which can prevent the Reaper population from wiping out the vampire and human populations.

Wesley Snipes does it again as the half-human, half-vampire superhero Blade. I've really grown to appreicate these movies so much more with just a recent viewing. Leonor Varela was also great as Nyssa. I'll probably finish off the trilogy sometime this weekend. It's been great thus far and I remember Blade: Trinity being my favorite during the last go round.
