Fans of the comic may enjoy this bloodfest, but most may find the gore more than they want to see. “Blade II” creates a poster child for exploitation of violence as entertainment from the opening scene as Blade chases and dispatches a trio of bloodeaters. Vampire bodies explode, burst into flames and turn to ash throughout the film. And, in keeping with the vampire theme, blood flows freely. Special effects take gruesomeness to new depths as bodies are sliced in half, with internal organs revealed. The reapers have a mouth that lets the jaw split and swing open to reveal a multi-forked tongue that bears a strong “Alien” look. And mixed into this gorefest are almost forty obscenities and a few strong profanities. Graphic and gory violence in “Blade II” doesn’t cut it as acceptable viewing.
