Blood: the Last Vampire

Remember when Vampires used to be bloodthirsty killers? Love the flying sword-play of Crouching Tiger?
Then join us for the UK Premiere of BLOOD: THE LAST VAMPIRE .

This is the live action movie based on the fantastic Japanese animé film - and better still, we are screening that as well. And did we mention the goody bag?

For those who don't know the animé, imagine BLADE (1998) as a vicious, samurai sword wielding girl and you'll get some idea. - tickets are on sale now for this special gala screening. The Apollo ticket office is 020 7451 9944 .

On the surface, Saya is a stunning 17-year-old, but that youthful exterior hides the tormented soul of a 400-year-old "halfling". Born to a human father and a vampire mother, she has for centuries been a loner obsessed with using her samurai skills to rid the world of vampires, all the while knowing that she herself can survive only on blood like those she hunts.

When she is sent onto an American military base in Tokyo by the clandestine organization she works for, Saya immediately senses that this may be her opportunity to finally destroy Onigen, the evil matriarch of all vampires. Using her superhman strength and her sword, she begins to rid the base of its evil infestation in a series of spectacular and elaborate showdowns.

However, it is not until she forms her first human friendship in centuries with the young daughter of the base's general that Saya learns that her greatest power over Onigen may well be her ability for human connection...

As the MPAA say "strong bloody stylized violence" - we can't wait!
