Synopsis: Saya (Jun) may be a 16-year-old beauty on the outside, but on the inside she's a vicious 400-year-old vampire slayer known as a "halfling," the offspring of a vampire mother and human father. A loner at heart, the superhuman Saya has perfected the art of the Samurai over the last four centuries, and uses these skills to abolish the world of the vampires that survive from the very blood that is essential for Saya's own survival. Set in Tokyo, on an American military base, Blood: The Last Vampire was adapted from Hiroyuki Kitakubo's 2000 anime film of the same name, which also inspired a single-volume manga sequel, a novel, two "light novels," and even a video game for the Sony Playstation. This live action feature was produced by Bill Kong (Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon) and Ronny Yu (Freddy vs. Jason), so should be one to see!
