AniMondays:Vampire Hunter D: Bloodlust (2000)

  • We Luv Video 100 North Loop Boulevard East Austin, TX, 78751 United States (map)

When the last vampire is extinct, who will mourn our passing? Will she? Will anyone? Can anyone understand this pain, this loneliness?

Vampires. They love BLOOD. LUST for it. And when they get too horny for a sweet sanguine snack, Vampire Hunter D(addy) has to come put them down. He’s half-vampire himself, so he knows the fearsome yearning for that ruby-red neck juice. He also knows just where to give them the stabby-stabby to make sure they stay dead. This time he's out to slay for pay; a nobleman's daughter has been kidnapped, and Papa knew well enough to put D on the case.

Western anime fans’ cultish affection for the original Vampire Hunter D was so strong that the follow-up, Bloodlust, targeted a U.S. release. Their love was validated; the visuals are sharp and darkly enchanting, and the simple plot gets twisted into surreal chaos by all the post-apocalyptic psychic weirdos that are stranger than the monsters they chase. Join us, you creatures of the night, for a spooky tale of future-gothic woe!

Presented in the original theatrical ENGLISH (global release, remember?). Rated R for blood. Lots of blood. And a little nudity.
