Legends of Halloween continues with more vampire hunting action, this time coutesy of Marvel Comics! Before Bryan Singer’s X-Men (2000), before Sam Raimi’s Spider-Man (2002), and before Ang Lee’s Hulk (2003), director Stephen Norrington launched Marvel to the big screen with his blood-drenched take on the daywalking half-vampire Blade. Played by Wesley Snipes, the film also stars Stephen Dorff as the villanous Deacon Frost and Kris Kristofferson as Blade’s mentor and armorer, Whistler. The film was a commercial success, spawning two sequels and a TV series, as well as setting up the template for the Marvel Cinematic Universe films to come. With an MCU installment on the way starring Mahershala Ali, we’re turning the clocks back 25 years to see if Blade still looks sharp!
