Smartorhypo Highly Overrated But Still Good

HottWwjdIam There is just so much movie here. For some it may be too much. But in the same secretly sarcastic way most telemarketers say the phrase, the title of this one is particularly apt.

Brendon Jones It’s fine. It's literally the definition of a fine movie. You’ve seen it before, you know every beat and outcome before the characters even do. Only question is how much escapism you’re looking for.

thebricks Watch Ninja Scroll then watch this movie. It becomes very obvious the movie was made around recycling animation drawn for that movie. Even entire scenes are created just to use the recycled animation! I can't believe I'm the only one that noticed this! Tacky!

Rectangular_businessman I must confess that I never understood all the hype about the original "Vampire Hunter D" movie: In my opinion, that movie was boring and poorly made, having very bad animation (Even for the time when it was made) clichéd characters, a generic plot which failed to deliver any sort of entertainment…Fortunately this new animated film(done by the same director of "Ninja Scroll") success in every single aspect where the previous "Vampire Hunter D" anime film failed: The animation is good, the designs are cool and stylish, the characters are interesting and better developed (Not like the annoying cardboard characters from the other movie) being also highly entertaining from the beginning to the end. The music is more than adequate, fitting very well for the atmosphere of each scene, capturing all the Gothic-western and post apocalyptic elements from the story.Even when the plot isn't something incredibly deep or complex, it still works very well.Personally, I think that this movie is much better than the other "Vampire Hunter D" movie in every single aspect. I highly recommend it.

predator_silver77 The Plot: D has been hired to track down Meier Link, a notoriously powerful vampire who has abducted a Human woman, Charlotte Elbourne. D's orders are strict - find Charlotte, at any cost. For the first time, D faces serious competition. The Markus Brothers, a family of Vampire Hunters, were hired for the same bounty. D must intercept Meier and conquer hostile forces on all sides in a deadly race against time. Despised by Vampires for his profession and by Humans for the blood in his veins, D relentlessly pursues his prey for a price.My Spiel: Simply put this is a truly great epic anime. The animation in this piece is very well put together a notch above many animes I have seen and I have seen my fair share. This has many levels of story behind it from discrimination, trust, revenge, and love. I am a fan of the first Vampire Hunter D anime, and had to say this was actually better then the first. Which is apparent with the quality of work that went into creating this masterpiece called bloodlust from the fight scenes to the over all feel of the movie truly astonishing a high grade animation. I highly recommend this anime to anyone who is a fan of Vampire/Anime/Swords/Action/Sci-fi/Horror. Vampire Hunter D: Blood Lust is a anime I am proud to recommend to others to watch.Vampire Hunter D Blood Lust (2000) Review: 9/10

tonysharp If - only - that - stupid - talking - hand - could - have - talked - less! You could tell the actor who played Left Hand, Michael McShane, thought he was being really funny. You could feel the enthusiasm in his obnoxious voice as he talked and talked through almost every scene in the movie, even key action scenes where I found his rambling to be most annoying.One scene that made me literally yell "shut up!" at the TV was when D was jumping his horse over a crowd of flying stingray creatures. The music was beautiful, and the scene was visually stunning, but that stupid hand... "Woah! Better watch out there, D! We're kind of close! To close for comfort! Blah blah blah ! I'm an annoying hand! Look at me! I can talk! Blah blah! I hope I'm not ruining this scene for you! I'm just trying to be funny! Blah blah!".I wish an edit could be made of this film that takes out that stupid, obnoxious, talking hand. Without him, Vampire Hunter D: Bloodlust could be worthy of an 8 rating.
