Goyer has written a magnificent vampire story and Del Toro successfully brought that vision to life with his own brand of terror. <\/font><\/font><\/font><font size=\"3\"><font size=\"3\"><font face=\"Times New Roman\" size=\"3\">Receiving a whopping Three Skipped Beats on the Roger Moore movie scale Blade II has done what so many sequels have failed to do.
