Vampire Hunter D Description
In a time where demons, werewolves, vampires, and other creatures of the night rule the world. The monsters rule over human beings as if they were slaves, or even cattle. They pray on humans as if they were nothing more than animals. There is only one man capable, only one man that stands up to these horrific creatures of the night.
However, it is clear that D chooses the side of humans. When the movie starts he is greeted by a village girl named Doris. The girl explains to him, after a failed attempt at robbery, that she has been biten and targeted by Count Magnus Lee, a great and powerful vampire said to have dissapeared years ago. With limited time, D decides to help the village girl and fight Count Magnus Lee.
There is more to this Dunapeel, half-vampire half-human, than meets the eye. One of D's hands has a parasite in it that takes the shape of a human face. With this parasite, D is able to weild strange, mystical powers. Weilding his cresent-shaped sword, D has extraordinary strength. Powers unseen, and mostly unexpected, by the forces of darkness. And it is these powers that D uses to overthrow the evil that plagues the Earth.
D, the Vampire Hunter, is a rare breed. With vampire blood running through his veins, along with human blood, he is incapable to become a real member of either society. Vampires look down on him for the lowly, human blood in him. And humans look down on him as some sort of monster.
However, this vampire, Count Lee, is not a force to be taken lightly. With age and immortality at his side, he has learned much over the ages and has several monsters and demons to protect him. D definatly has his work cut out for him.
