With productions delays aplenty, finding information on Chris Nahon’s live action remake of the hit Anime Blood: The Last Vampire, really has been like pulling teeth. But with the release date now finally set (in France at least) for July, here’s hoping we can soon finally get a good look at what’s to come. To tide us all over in the mean time, a few new pics from the movie have appeared online.
Synopsis: On the surface, Saya is a stunning 16-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 patriarch of all vampires. Using her superhuman 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 bases general that Saya learns her greatest power over Onigen may well be her ability for human connection.

Japanese company ‘Production I.G’ are listed as involved in the production, but its mainly a
French (Pathe)/Chinese (Edko Films) co-project. Both Pathe and Edko usually turn out good
films, so it should be good.
