  <description>&lt;p&gt;Hello, Dark Ones and Daywalkers! Tonight, we discuss the 1998 cinematic masterpiece, BLADE, about a half-vampire (or dhampir) who hunts vampires with the help of an old mentor and a hematologist. Chael had never seen Blade, so this was her first watch, while Tori saw it when it came out and probably a few times since. We discuss the making of the movie and the cast of characters, as well as the vampire tropes in Blade and how those same tropes appear in other vampire media.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
