Blade (1998)

Blade

The poet and philosopher George Santayana once said those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it. It is a lesson that Deacon Frost (Stephen Dorff) has forgotten. He has decided that the old vampire guard, led by Dragonetti (Udo Kier), has passed its sell-by date. So he and his brood of goonish acolytes kidnap the elder and take him to the seaside to watch the sunrise. As the sun comes up over the horizon, Dragonetti pops, splatters, melt and finally explodes surrounded by the cavorting new kids drenched in SPF 60 lotion. Frost has so much to learn. You just want to slap him.
