i got this as part of the blade trilogy dvd, and glad i did,because if i had forked out money just for this film alone, i would have been more disappointed than i was! at the beginning, it was good, the old formula-blade,whistler. then blade takes a back seat to some newbies.yeah, the comedy was good, but it sorely lacked.as for the dracula role-pants!!! the guy who played him was neither scary,good, or believable, who had absolutely no depth to his character! i think what summed this movie up, was the 'vampire-dog/hybrids'! a Chihuahua vampire dog, for heavens sake!!!! hope mr snipes has realised that this franchise has gone its distance.so, in summary, to save money, get blade trilogy, as you have 2 fantastic movies in 1&2,a couple of good scenes in 3, but at least you dont feel you have wasted so much money.
