Blade

Film 9 of the New Underworld Productions Marvel Universe

Blade has spent nine years hunting vampires from the shadows, protecting a world that doesn't even know the supernatural exists. When ancient vampire Lilith, daughter of Dracula, begins harvesting the blood of powerful vampires across Romania with the help of Deacon Frost, Blade discovers they are preparing a ritual to resurrect Judas Iscariot—the original vampire. Lilith believes Judas will reward her by making her his queen, but Dracula knows the resurrection would bring eternal darkness and destroy modern vampires. Desperate to stop his daughter, Dracula reluctantly enlists Blade, who agrees only because he knows something far worse could emerge if Judas eradicates the vampires he understands. Blade begins the hunt alongside Werewolf by Night, Jack Russell, his closest ally, as well as Hannibal King, Abigail Whistler and Skinner. Stephen Grant, operating as Mr. Knight, helps Blade during the early investigation before the team travels deeper into Romania. Along the way, Lilith and Frost slaughter ancient vampires for their blood. Blade eventually learns that the ritual is far more dangerous than Lilith realizes. At a massive Blood Rave, Blade's team attacks Lilith and Frost. They defeat Frost and seemingly stop Lilith, but the ritual has already begun. Judas returns only as a terrifying Wraith. Blade faces him and, though he could never defeat the true Judas, manages to destroy this incomplete manifestation. Lilith and Frost escape after Lilith receives a horrifying vision of what Judas would have done. They disappear into hiding. Blade's allies return to their own lives, while Blade visits Dracula on the Throne of Blood. Dracula warns that something far worse is coming and says they can no longer remain enemies. Whatever is coming will require everyone. In the darkness, a twisted smile appears. Red skin pierces the void as flames consume the screen. Cut to black.
