Vampire Hunter D: Bloodlust (DVD, 2002)

About this product

Product Information

Combining romance, gothic horror, science fiction, and bloody action into a dazzling anime production, VAMPIRE HUNTER D (2000) takes the vampire mythos to a new level. This movie is not a remake or a continuation of the 1985 movie of the same title. That movie was loosely based on the first of Kikuchi Hideyuki's VAMPIRE HUNTER D books, set 10,000 years in the future. VAMPIRE HUNTER D (2000) takes its cue from the third book in the series, though there are significant deviations in plot. Here, the charismatic vampire, Meier Link, arrives in town in the middle of the night and spirits away a beautiful woman. D, the child of a human and a vampire, is hired to retrieve her. Racing against time and against another group of bounty hunters who were also contracted to perform the rescue, D fights a bizarre cast of Meier's henchmen, each of whom has his own unique and horrific way of killing. Both of the VAMPIRE HUNTER D films benefit from the participation of fantasy artist Yoshitaka Amano, whose character designs for both films drip with the eroticism and decadence of a Gustav Klimt painting. Director Yoshiaki Kawajiri adds his talent at dreaming up gruesome enemies, which was also evidenced in his previous work, NINJA SCROLL.

  • Best Anime movie out there.

    Saw this way back in Early beginning of 2000's one of the best Vampire Animé/manga's I ever seen a dunpeel is half breed hybrid a vampire spawn and human, guess his Momma was assaulted by a Vampire so the innuendo goes and it's sole purpose is to end the Vampire Race, he is hired by a wealthy man Father of the Girl that gets kidnapped at the beginning of the film, to kill Meier Link the Lord Vampire, great story befriends (leah) a rival female mercenary also hired to rescue the same girl before she is turned. Very gypsy Russian/Romanian with Greek like Mythic Influences throughout the movie.👌

  • Anime and Vampires combined perfect.

    This is an excellent movie if you like anime or vampire flicks. The story is great and you will appreciate it even if you haven't seen the original. Multiple interesting characters. Plenty of dark backdrops and action and battle scenes. This nails what I think of what a vampire story should entail.

  • Vampire Hunter D

    I thought this was going to be the other Vampire Hunter D 😂😂😂 but regardless it is awesome too and I am glad I saw this. The music is also great and we watch it a lot. The plot is good and the same "D" we can't forget. A+
