Blood: The Last Vampire

As long as we recognize Lucas is washed up and most TV sucks, we'll all get along fine.

A Japanese girl is the daughter of a legendary demon killer whose only purpose is to avenge her father's murder at the hands of Onigen, the most powerful demon.

That's as deep as the story gets right there. They try, here and there, to add some elements of characterization for some of the ancillary characters, but they could have cut every scene they were in and the film wouldn't miss a beat.

Good action in the "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" vein, but not great. In fact, a lot of it is hidden by effects or shaky camera work.

I had higher hopes for this one. Skip it.

3 out of 10.

A loooong time ago. Season 2 is on my Christmas wish list.

Now to get totally off track, but is Battlestar all done? Can I start collecting and watching that now?

Have you watched Burn Notice yet?

1. Take Buffy Season 2 off your wish list.

2. BSG is done, and there is currently a massive BD box set for sale, but I heard the individual seasons for BD will be going on sale within a few months. I would really wait for BD to keep you from having to double dip.

3. Yes, I watched all of BN season 1.

Japanese movie (in English) about a Japanese girl who goes undercover in a high school on an American Air Force Base to track down a demon. More or less.

Very B-movie. Horrible cgi. I give it a "C-."
