Episode 75 - Blade (1998)

No Time For Heroics

Heading back to the beginning of the modern superhero movie era with the movie that probably deserves the most credit for that, 1998's Blade! How did this movie manage to rip-off the Matrix two years before the Matrix came out?

And what of the scourge of Renfields infiltrating our police departments? Why even bother trying to listen to this podcast, it's untranslatable, and- oh, what? it's been translated by a computer? And also a sexagenarian mechanic with a machine gun? Okay then. Party on.
