Plot

As an apocalyptic event takes place, one which might allow vampires to seize control of Earth, The Vampire Nation succeeds in framing Blade (Snipes) for several killings. Blade, now in the public's eye and persecuted from all sides, has to join forces with the Nightstalkers, a human clan of vampire hunters. Blade, Hannibal (Reynolds), and Abigail (Biel) go after Danica Talos (Posey), who seeks to and eventually succeeds in resurrecting Dracula. In order to stop him, Blade has to release a virus that will wipe out all vampires, but he has only one opportunity to do so.
