"OK, Vampire Anatomy 101, crosses and holy water don't do dick so forget what you've seen in the movies. You use a wooden stake, silver or sunlight to kill them. You know how to use one of these?"

Twenty years later, the overwhelming success of the MCU’s Black Panther proved definitively what many have insisted for decades: That a film with a majority-black cast can have mainstream appeal and box office success, just as majority-white films do, if given the same opportunity...” From Lady Science Magazine, 2018

Blade (1998)
This is a Movie Health Community evaluation. It is intended to inform people of potential health hazards in movies and does not reflect the quality of the film itself. The information presented here has not been reviewed by any medical professionals.
Blade has several scenes of extreme and prolonged strobe lights, including in nightclubs, a subway tunnel, and in lightning-related effects during the climax of the film. There are also several uses of machine guns, and one moment where a car drives quickly through the shadows of pillars, creating a strong strobe effect.
Several scenes use handheld cameras with some extra shaking. There is brief peril at extreme heights.
Flashing Lights: 10/10. Motion Sickness: 7/10.
TRIGGER WARNING: This film has excessive blood, some gore, and graphic burn injuries in multiple scenes. There are two discussions about suicide, one of which ends in the act itself. A few scenes show people convulsing.
