Lucy Liu is out for revenge in the vampire horror film Rise: Blood Hunter. When investigative reporter Sadie Blake stumbles upon a clan of vampires they brutally kill her, but she comes back as a vampire and is intent on destroying them; meanwhile a cop desperately searches for the fiend that murdered his daughter, unaware that it’s the same vampire clan that Sadie’s hunting. Liu gives a fairly good performance and is backed by a solid supporting cast that includes Michael Chiklis and Carla Gugino. Additionally, the film doesn’t hold back on the gore and violence of the vampire attacks. But the storytelling is rather weak and doesn’t do a lot of character and plot development. Yet while it’s a little thin, Rise: Blood Hunter is a frightening and gritty revenge tale.
What a shambles. Despite some recognisable names, it's rambling and indecipherable movie that has aged prematurely.
