Movie Reviews of Vampire Hunter D
Movie Review: You know, it's funny...
Summary: 5 Stars
You know, it's funny when I read a negative review and hear something like "shamelessly following where all have gone before" or "D doesn't attempt to go any further than the cliché" or anything similar to that. What those people don't realize is that D is the cliché. All those so called great vampire characters today were built upon the knowledge of the old Original vampire characters. D is one of the best of those Originals.This anime is not much compared to what today can offer in terms of story depth and quality animation, but for something that is about 19 years old, this is pretty damn good.
Vampire Hunter D is something that you can only label as a classic.
Movie Review: Vampire Hunter D - The Anime that started it all!
Summary: 5 Stars
No, I do not mean this was the first Anime movie or anythinkg like that. I mean this is the Anime that started my interest in the genre.**MILD SPOILERS**
D is a half human half vampire warrior who travels and huntd down his own kind. He has a talking hand (freaky). He ends up protecting a young girl from the evil vampire Magnus Lee. She ends up being kinapped and D has to enter The House of Lee to save her. In the process D goes up against vampires, some ghouls and many other creatures leading up till the climatic end. I definately suggest getting Vampire hunter D. I am gonna give it the ol' 5 stars. If I could Give it more belive me I would. Oh this one is DEFINATELY NOT FOR CHILDREN!
Movie Review: Vampire Hunter D
Summary: 5 Stars
I am a huge fan of D. I have both the first Vampire Hunter D & Vampire Hunter D-BloodLust and I am impatiently waiting to see if another is ever going to be made. I love Japanese Anime, but am very selective in what I buy for my own personal collection and both of these are "CLASSICS" that are a must for any Anime library. If you purchase one, or both, I do not think that you'll be disappointed, but you may want to make sure that you watch the first Vampire Hunter D before the second. The differences in technology between the time the first & second were made are amazing & the first Vampire Hunter D is like a vintage cartoon compared to the second.Movie Review: A Dark Gem
Summary: 5 Stars
This Anime film is a classic of its genre. It's atmospheric, beautifully done, with a basic story-line. Set in a distant future, country-girl Doris hires the forbidding and mysterious Vampire Hunter D to kill the evil Count Magnus Lee who's bitten her. It has some more great characters - the Count's imperious daughter is especially entertaining -, lots of mutant beasties, and blood and gore. The story rises above the usual battle between good and evil with the complex nature of D. Perhaps the animation now seems dated, but it's an entertaining film in its own right, and you don't have to especially be a fan of the Anime genre to be mesmerized by it.Movie Review: Essential anime, a true classic!
Summary: 5 Stars
Vampire Hunter D is the first anime I saw that really impressed me. It completely hooked me on anime, and remains one of my absolute favorites. It's got an amazing story, a very cool main character, a great supporting cast, and cool animation. I should point out that this is quite old, and the animation is nowhere near where todays anime is. It is still ahead of it's time, and really dark and creepy. This is what every anime fan should start with. The DVD has some cool extras as well, including a preview of the new movie Vampire Hunter D: Bloodlust, which has the most breathtaking animation and character designs I've seen in a long time.
