Four star

WESLEY Snipes returns as Blade in this action-packed sequel about a weapon-toting vampire killer.

But this time the vampires need his help to wipe out a new type of bloodsucker which is exterminating the vampire race and soon to start on humans.

Blade is accompanied by a crack team of vampire killers, originally trained to kill Blade, but will they turn against him?

The plot's a bit iffy but you don't go and see a film like this for an engrossing plot - all you want is blood, and plenty of it. And that's what you get.

The original movie was good and it's not often the continuation lives up to the first but this, in some ways, does.

The special effects and fight scenes are superb and the whole movie is far scarier than the first.
