First cool marvel movie 🎬 I remember when it came out at the cinema 🎥 was not sure what it was until a guy at work told me to get it on VHS. I was not disappointed!

Watch Blade 2, it's awesome. You guys will love it.

Silver kills all cursed creatures. Historically substances that killed bacteria were seen as good or holy as disease was evil and a curse. So garlic was an immune booster and silver actually kills bacteria, hence the colloidal silver anti bacterial supplements. Perhaps a wooden stake through the heart disrupts the energy flow as wood is not an electrical conductor. Silver stakes work because although silver is an amazing conductor the anaphylactic reaction does the damage. All speculation, but interesting.

Fun fact: Willy Wonka was actually a wizard who was also a vampire hunter. Violet Beauregarde was a vampire who couldn't eat normal food, hence the chewing gum fixation. Wonka put EDTA in the magic gum and that's why Violet blew up like a raspberry.

Please do Blade 2!!! Its another great one. Many say too is better then the first. I loved both equally!!! Ip Mans Donnie Yen is in it too and there's more martial arts fighting in it too!!!

Another good Snipes movie is White Men Can’t Jump (1992).

RIP Kris K!!! Not sure if anyone knows but the woman vampire in the car in the begining is Tracy Lords. Most famous for being a (underage) porn actress. She also wrote and composed one of the songs that was used in the movie. The whole album is pretty good IMO. As far as those men wearing sunglasses in that club, that Japanese Mafia (Yakuza) stereotype. The guard in the front Blade punched through a plate glass window, started speaking to him in Japanese. The women on the stage were in schoolgirl costumes, rapping also in Japanese. For what it was, it wasn't bad as well. That "Ice skating uphill" line killed when i saw this in the theater.

We do need more Van Damme! -Sam

DeNiro and Snipes together?! Count me in! -Sam

Thank you, Ed!

Thank you, Philip!

So glad you were able to fix the damaged files. You guys are so committed to your channel! 👍

Since you accidentally referred to Demolition Man as Timecop in the reaction, I'm reminded that I hope we get some more Van Damme at some point. (Surprisingly, Timecop is the highest grossing movie Van Damme played the lead role in)

Brian Anthony

Snipes is great in New Jack City and The Fan along with Robert De Niro.His early catalog is really great.

Ed Garland

Great reaction!! Sorry you had to deal with all the added technical/ corrupted files issues. I'm sure it was a lot of extra work, but the end result looked great! Yes, please react to Blade 2 and 3! Thanks again!!

Philip Alan

I actually enjoyed Blade 2! (hides)

Philip Alan

Great job with the repair! Not too intrusive! Thanks, Daniel for fixing that! Great reaction! Love Blade! RIP Kris Kristofferson! P.S. I'd say YES to watching Blade 2 at least. I wouldn't be mad if you watched all three!

Your next vampire movie: 30 Days of Night

TBR Schmitt

Wow no way! -Sam

TBR Schmitt

Aww no way!! -Sam

Such a great movie and so ahead of the game. The only thing that dates it is some crappy CGI. The sequels are awful.

Philip Davetas

Wait what? You guys haven't watched this? Dude, without this movie there would be no MCU at all. Marvel was on the verge of filing for bankruptcy when they decided to cash in all their chips and lay it all down on this movie. And this movie alone saved the Marvel brand which allowed them to make SPIDER-MAN and eventually create the MCU. There's a book called "Marvel Comics: The Untold Story" that goes into depth on this. Also, there was a crand plan that when Deadpool entered the MCU, they were going to build the whole supernatural wing of the MCU which involved Blade, Werewolf by Night, Agatha and Wanda/Vision, but that plan went to shit because of production delays. And it seems that the only reason people are reacting to BLADE lately is for one reason alone. DP///W.

RIP, Kris Kristofferson. 😔🙏🏻🕊

Kris Kristofferson sadly died 2 days Ago, He was also a great Actor ... "A Star is Born" from 1976 (The Original with Barbara Streisand, and "Convoy" from 1978 are Classics ... R.I.P. Kris

Florian Meier

Yeah !! Daywalker is on the Channel Finally ;) This was such a Big Hit Back in the 90's when i was at School "Blade" was a must watch !!! Blade 2 is also a must watch, really good Sequel ... I recommend for more Wesley Snipes "Passanger 57", "White Men Can't Jump" both from 1992 and "US Marshals" from 1998 (Sequel from The Fugitive)

Mr. Writhms

Stan Lee made a cameo in Blade (playing one of the cops that discovered Quinn's burning body in the beginning) but director Stephen Norrington cut the scene out. Dang it!

Thomas Yanez

In case the future of Spooky Season includes more vampire movies - you need to remember that no two vampire movies follow exactly the same rules (unless they are in the same franchise (maybe)). You can't make assumptions about what is or isn't required to be a vampire until a given movie tells you. There are similarities and some often used common tropes, but none of them are 100%, not even things like holy ground and crosses. Also, R.I.P Kris Kristofferson.

I'm glad you were able to get the file running! Thank you, Daniel for fixing it. I'll check this out when I'm done with my power nap. Haha. "Some reactors are always tryin' to ice skate uphill."
