Editorial Review:
Amazon.com:
Based on a series of fantasy novels by Hideyuki Kikuchi, Vampire Hunter D: Bloodlust is a bloody anime adventure. Set in the distant future, the story focuses on D (voice by Andrew Philpot), the son of a vampire and a mortal who has dedicated his life to exterminating vampires. D is pursuing Charlotte (Wendee Lee), who has been carried off by vampire Meier Link (John Rafter Lee). The bounty-hunting Markus brothers and tough-talking Leila (Pamela Segall) are also on the trail. A long, violent chase brings them to the Castle of Carmila the Bloody Countess (Julia Fletcher), where the narrative founders in a series of confusing illusions that lead to an inconclusive ending. Bloodlust looks better in still images that evoke Yoshitaka Amano's intricate illustrations than it does in motion. The very limited drawn animation clashes visually with the more fluid computer-generated imagery--D's cape billows dramatically, but his expression rarely changes. Fans of such violent anime features as Sword for Truth and Ninja Resurrection will enjoy the no-holds-barred action sequences, but more squeamish viewers will be put off by the beheadings, impalements, disembowelments, etc. Vampire Hunter D, an earlier, more modest feature based on the same material, is a better adaptation. --Charles Solomon

Rating:  - An overrated film
I'm going to get right to the point. I feel that this film is rated much more highly on amazon than it deserves to be.
For several reasons:
1) The 5.1 surround doesn't sound right. There must've been some fault with the compression, but when it comes out on speakers is actually rather disappointing. Picture quality leaves much to be desired as well. At some points, it comes across as grainy. Although this could just be my copy of the DVD.
2) No japanese language provided. ... Read More
Rating:  - One of the few new anime films i actually enjoyed
Theres been a lot of anime films i wanted to watch, and unfortunatly they never seem to keep my interest, even ones that are suppost to be real good, and i watch it, and its just boring.
Vampire Hunter D: Bloodlust, kept me attentive. From the great animation, and decent performances from the voice actors, i was impressed by how it all unfolded. Though i have yet to see the the first film ( the orginal strangly enough bored me and i couldnt watch it for long, but after seeing this i'll watch ... Read More
Rating: - Spaghetti Western Vampire Anime
I had never encountered Vampire Hunter D before watching this movie and I found myself enthralled by the sophisticated animation.The plot keptreminding me of the spaghetti westerns that my father used to love.
Somewhere in a future dystrophic world, a rich rancher's daughter was kidnapped by a vampire.An iconic figure in black is summoned to either rescue her, or if she has been turned, kill her.But there is also a second party of people competing for the reward, a group of siblings who ... Read More
Rating:  - Really got to know D, here...
Though brilliant and original in it's art, the first Vampire Hunter D was over, and I was still waiting for it to begin, rather.But in this movie there was some character development lacking in the first.It was not bloody at all, to my mind, and I go to exteme lengths to avoid stepping on an ant.The only fault was perhaps that the romantic vampire lover subplot was kind of sappy and over-used, but Vampire D was even more cool and enigmatic than before.The whole vampire thing has been flogged to death ...

Rating: - Best anime movie I have seen!
Way better than the first.The quality of animation is incredible as is the action.The characters are very cool as well.This movie has gotten me and a few of my friends interested in watching anime but none seem to compare with this movie.
