“Blade” Movie Review
“Blade” Plot Summary
A half-vampire, half-mortal man becomes a protector of the mortal race, while slaying evil vampires.
GOOD ACTION/HORROR MOVIE!!
This was one of those slick action movies that was made to look good on screen, and it did, the vampire fighting sequences were excellent, there was plenty of blood and gore the whole movie looked good to the eye. It was a fun watch and very entertaining. Good movie but I didn’t like how Blade could slice vampires in half and they would just die, it looked good but vampires don’t die by getting sliced in half. Other than the vampires and how many rules were not kept to in this movie, Wesley Snipes gives a good performance as Blade and Stephen Dorff is great as the evil vampire. The story is when Blade’s mother was bitten by a vampire during pregnancy, she did not know that she gave her son a special gift while dying: All the good vampire attributes in combination with the best human skills. Blade grew up to be a vampire hunter for revenge on his mother’s death. The vampires, who managed to infiltrate nearly every major organization, need Blade’s very special blood to summon La Miagra, the blood god, in order to gain reign about the human cattle, as they call us. If you beleive that vampires can only be killed by a stab to the heart and the weapon must stay in the heart and chopping the head off are the only ways to kill a vampire you won’t find that in Blade. But Blade has it’s moments and I would recommend it as a good horror/action movie.

“Scream” Movie Review
“Scream” Plot Summary
A psychopathic serial killer is stalking a group of teens just like in the movies!
A fun movie that effectively parodied the slasher genre
Following the big flop ‘New Nightmare’, which was not actually a bad film, Wes Craven came out all guns blazing, armed with a nice script from Kevin Williamson, and made the single biggest movie of his career
The script is a lot of fun with various in jokes, and it doesn’t take long for them to start coming. ‘The first nightmare on Elm Street was good, the rest sucked,’ was an obvious reference to Wes Craven directing the original and not the later ones, Craven later makes a cameo appearance as a janitor named ‘Fred’ wearing a green and red jumper. Several other classic horror films are also referenced including the Exorcist, Friday the 13th, Halloween 1 and 2, Hellraiser, Prom Night, The Howling and Rosemary’s Baby
The plot revolves around Sidney Prescott (Neve Campbell), a young high Schooler who’s mother was viciously murdered a year or so earlier. Sidney was convinced her mother’s murderer was Cotton Weary (Liev Schreiber) who was convicted of the crime and is in now in jail. Tabloid news reporter Gail Weathers however, has her doubts and has printed a series of articles and a tell all novel pleading Weary’s innocence. Her theory is given credence as a series of copycat killings, modeled after 80s horror movies, occur. Sidney soon finds herself living in a real life scary movie with no allies and everyone’s a suspect
I find it a bit hard to rate Scream as a slasher film, as I don’t see it as one. I see it as more of comedy thriller, which was successfully marketed as a horror film. Not that it was hard given the many litres of fake blood used in the story or the rather grisly subject matter
On the acting side, Skeet Ulrich easily steals the movie from under the rest of the cast, while Matthew Lillard and Jamie Keneedy are both delights. David Arquette is equal parts annoying and endearing, and Courtney Cox is convincing as a bitch, but not so much as a reporter. Neve Campbell puts in a strong performance as Sidney, while Rose McGowan is under used, and unlikeable in her few scenes. Drew Barrymore’s cameo in the opening ten or so minutes has become an iconic scene in 90s film making, and is some of the best work she has ever done
Craven’s affection for the horror genre has been evident in many of his movies and he does a fine job here of both sending up the genre he helped create, and also redefining it for a modern audience. Well done to Craven and his script writer Kevin Williamson for breathing life back into the slasher genre.
