The story centers around a supernatural detective who doubles as hitman, taking out all the vampires, ghosts and other unsavory monsters who live among humans, hiding in the shadows by day and emerging at night.
What does everyone think of this?

So Blade as a true horror movie? I can deal with that.

Most people consider Blade a horror film, it has been in every horror section at every videostore I have been to, all horror sites and magazines cover them.

Yeah, don't see where the heck you got the idea that Blade isn't a horror film.

I always saw it as an action movie personally. Not that there was anything wrong with it, but I never got where I was supposed to be afraid of him.

But if the events that play out in the film were to happen in real life, I should be fearful of them. This one failed to do that, so I don't call it a horror film.

Yeah, for once GL I REALLY don't understand your reasoning here, there's plenty of horror films that if the events played out in real life I wouldn't be scared, the Prom Night remake and The Ring being 2 such examples.

Being stalked by a serial killer = horror. Malicious ghost = horror.
Both are horror films.

Blade also a horror film

Vampire taking over the world = action film.
The lead isn't that active in what happens until the end. It's more like a James Bond film, just the main characters are supernaturally powered, and that's not enough for me to call it a true horror film.

Yeah but my point is that just cause events of a film wouldn't scare you in particular in real life DOES NOT mena it's not a horror film! So by your logic the Prom Night remake wouldn't be horror in my eyes becuase it's events wouldn't scare me in real life.
