Summary
Vampires and sunglasses go together like cobwebs and creepy castles, but nobody that looks as cool wearing sunglasses at night as Wesley Snipes in Blade (1998).
The Van Helsing character has come a long way since Bram Stoker's Dracula was published back in 1897 but I think we can all agree he hit his peak in the late 90s. Trench coats, muscle cars, martial arts, one-liners! Blade was the ultimate vampire hunter, hear to rid the world of the ultimate evil: scum-sucking vampire elites, feasting on the living, controlling the population, and gettin' freaky in their underground blood shower night clubs!
Join us as we kick off a brand new double-feature of fashionable vamps getting their butts whooped by the ultimate badass. Part Vampire. Part Human. All Hero 🦇
