From a producer of Hero and Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon comes Blood: The Last Vampire, based on the cult hit anime series. Demons have infested Earth, and only one warrior stands between the dark and the light: Saya, a half-human, half-vampire samurai who preys on those who feast on human blood. Joining forces with the shadowy society known as the Council, Saya is dispatched to an American military base, where an intense series of sword fights leads her to the deadliest vampire of all. And now after 400 years, Saya's greatest hunt is about to begin.

Critics Consensus: Based on a classic anime series, Blood: The Last Vampire is a tedious, shoddily acted, amateurish picture that loses all charm in the transition to live-action.

Reviews

Charleston City Paper

Felicia Feaster

Blood has the plodding, labored feel of a story trapped in two-dimensions and characters who are all surface.

Blood is a nice antidote to your Twilight blues. No shiny vampires here, and all the girls have traded their mopey diaries for samurai swords.

The Stranger (Seattle, WA)

Brendan Kiley

The fight choreography is satisfying (if not revolutionary), the few dashes of CGI have a rubbery aftertaste, and Edo-era fetishists (quaint villages with everything made of rope and bamboo!) get their fix in an extensive series of flashback battles.

This live-action adaptation of Hiroyuki Kitakubo's popular anime one-off from 2000 appears to have been made by a company of finches tweeting, "Cheap...cheap."

The dialogue is horrible (sample exchange: "Little bitch is out of control"), the acting is worse.
