Some science fiction franchises are so ambitious they become their own cinematic languages. Star Wars$SW built an entire galaxy with a mythology that’s still growing almost 50 years later, while Blade$BLD Runner helped define the vision of a far-future Los Angeles through rampant tech advancement and unchecked capitalism. They’re the kinds of franchises that can change the way we imagine the future, influencing everything from fashion and technology to the stories other filmmakers want to tell. Plenty of franchises have tried to capture that same vibe, but few have managed to pull it off quite like The Matrix.
Born a half-vampire or dhampir, with all of the strengths of vampires but none of their weaknesses, Blade became a vampire hunter to avenge his mother who was killed by Deacon Frost, the vampire that made him what he is.
