Wesley Snipes stars as an immortal warrior who battles a
thriving underworld of vampires seeking to decimate the human race.
SEX/NUDITY 3 - Sexual innuendo and a reference to a man's genitalia. A woman
grabs a man's crotch. Several women are shown in bras. A woman performs oral sex on a man
(implied, not seen).
VIOLENCE/GORE 9 - Several bloody shootouts, many fights with shoving,
punching and kicking. Many vampires are dispatched in various ways: they are shot, stabbed
with stakes and slashed with swords, almost always with lots and lots of blood. Two
vampires are hit by a train and some vampires are struck by flashes of light. The vampires
who are "killed" explode or melt. A vampire is nailed to a wall with a stake and
then burned (we see the charred results a couple of times). Two people are bitten by a
burned corpse, a corpse's arm is severed and melts and a vampire's skin bubbles and burns.
A vampire begins burning and then explodes. An arm is cut off, a head explodes, a body is
cut in two and a vampire's fangs are yanked out. A room is flooded with blood and two
vampires rub each other with blood while they kiss. A man is punched up and tossed around
and a man's neck is bitten (with lots of blood). A man is stabbed in the shoulder with a
stake and a man's hand is torn to shreds. A woman and a baby are shown covered with blood
and a man's blood is drained from his wrist. A man and woman are stuck in the face with
needles, and a man is stung with a prod. A woman is attacked by a decaying vampire and a
man shoots himself (off screen). Several explosions.
