Blade

Blade

1998

Half-vampire, half-human hybrid Wesley Snipes pursues the bloodsuckers who killed his mother and inflicted their everlasting curse upon him. But the vampires (who've infiltrated the highest echelons of big business) aren't finished with their favorite son. They need Blade's special blood to reincarnate La Magra, a voracious god who'll inaugurate a bloody new epoch between vampires and their human hosts.

The power of an immortal. The soul of a human. The heart of a hero.
