- Revealing mistakes: During the fight in the Temple just before
Blade recovers his sword, you can see the ground move and a stunt man
bounce due to an ill-concealed mat.
- Continuity: When Deacon is talking to Karen in the Edgewood
Tower before Blade arrives the box of Camel cigarettes in the bottom left
corner changes positions throughout the scene.
- Crew or equipment visible: Towards the end of the movie, when
Blade is trying to retrieve his sword from a wall, a cast member can be
seen clearly in the background, jumping up and down, apparently preparing
to enter the ensuing fight scene.
- Continuity: In the final fight between Blade and Frost, the
bloodstain on Frost switches from the left side of his face to the right,
then back to the left.
- Continuity: The "receiver" in Blade's left ear is not there
after the punch to the face but is there after the silver spike was
embedded in his shoulder by Quinn.
- Factual errors: EDTA (ethylenediaminetetracetate), the
anticoagulant Blade uses in the glass darts, is not blue. The powdered
form is white and produces a clear, colorless solution.
- Continuity: When Blade is being injected with serum in the
hideout he spots Karen trying to escape. Whistler lets go of Blade's hand
to pursue Karen, but then a close up on Blade has Whistler still holding
it.
- Incorrectly regarded as goofs: The vampires do not seem
concerned at any time about the damage caused to their original Bible,
despite its importance historically and to their immediate plans. That's
because it's the information and not the artifact that's important, and
the information has all been stored on Frost's computer.
- Revealing mistakes: In the final fight, it's obvious where
Blade has a stunt double, especially in the slow-motion sequence when the
sword/rock/serum is falling around him.
- Continuity: When Blade collapses nearly unconscious out of the
blood collection chamber, his hands are at his sides. When he hits the
floor, they are above his head and help support his fall.
- Continuity: Smoke rises from Karen's collar while she is lying
on the table before she is injected with the Essence of Garlic. It is in
the shot that ends with Whistler reading her ID Badge.
- Continuity: When Blade and Quinn are fighting in the subway,
Blade pushes Quinn's face against the train and it gets very messed up but
right when he pulls it off his face is normal.
- Crew or equipment visible: When Blade silently mouths "What...
the... fuck?", the crew is reflected in his sunglasses.
- Continuity: When Quinn bites Dr. Jenson, the doctor's wig slips
to the side and we see a glimpse of her real hair. In the next shot, her
wig is back in place.
- Continuity: Karen's bandages, covering Quinn's bite, change
positions.
- Continuity: Before beginning the final fight, Blade jumps from
the top of the temple. While jumping, his vest is undone. When he lands,
his vest is completely done up.
- Continuity: The blonde vampire (Mercury) is wearing her white
coat when she leads the purebloods to the glyphs. When Deacon says, "bring
the elevator up," she's not wearing the coat, but it reappears the next
time we see her.
- Audio/visual unsynchronized: When Deacon Frost has decoded the
text, and is looking at the image of the chamber, and the positions the
purebloods must stand in are being shown with a click for each one, there
are 21 clicks, but only 12 purebloods are needed, plus one position at the
centre for Deacon.
- Continuity: In the subway, Mercury's dress changes from white
to blue back to white again due to the ultraviolet lights that were used
to light some of the SFX shots (lights that wouldn't normally exist in a
subway tunnel).
- Continuity: When the lightning strikes the temple, you see it
strike the assembled coffin/sarcophagus that Blade had been locked in, but
this is after Karen has let him out. A little later you see that the
halves are still apart.
- Continuity: When Blade first opens the freezer to get to Pearl,
there is lettuce in the top shelf. When he reopens the freezer and starts
down the stairs, the top shelf has a tray covered in foil on it and the
lettuce is gone.
- Factual errors: During the subway tunnel fight, the subway
train takes over 60 seconds to pass by Blade and Quinn. If the train is
traveling at 30 mph, then the train would have to be a half-mile long, or
66 train cars at 40 feet per car. A standard subway train is 8 or 10 cars
long.
- Revealing mistakes: In the background of the vampire nightclub
after Blade's small killing spree a man is visible in the background,
covered in head to toe with blood, however his bright blue shorts don't
have a speck on them, even though it rained from the roof a few moments
beforehand.
- Continuity: At the end of the film, during the time the flying
skeletons exit the vampires' burning bodies, the same bodies are unburnt
and visible in the wide-angle shots. This is particularly noticeable when
it comes to the two female vampires.
- Continuity: In the fight between Deacon and Blade in the
temple, Deacon jumps up wearing white shoes and comes down wearing black
shoes.
- Continuity: In the subway, Karen falls into the gap between the
subway train and the walkway; the gap is wide enough for her to stand up
and give Blade his sword. In all other shots, the gap between the train
and the walkway is clearly three or four inches at most.
- Plot holes: The ritual is supposed to require 12 Elders, yet
Frost kills one of them before the ritual starts. If he didn't bring a
replacement, it shouldn't have worked.
- Revealing mistakes: During the final battle where Whistler
throws Blade his sunglasses, Whistler's actions in the background are
inconsistent, revealing that it was not a straight throw-and-catch and
that some editing trickery was used.
- Audio/visual unsynchronized: In the Vampire HQ when Scud hits
Whistler the second time, we hear the sound of the punch first before we
see the hit.
- Continuity: During the opening action sequence, Blade briefly
disappears from the alley during a special effects shot.
- Audio/visual unsynchronized: When Blade, Whistler and Scud
confront the head Vampire, an earlier shot of Whistler talking, but with
the audio removed, is used as a reaction shot, leaving Whistler to appear
to foolishly mouth a line he has just said.
- Continuity: Nyssa tells Blade that she is a "pure blood" (born
a vampire) but she has a scar above her lip and fillings in her teeth.
According to the logic of the movie, a pure blood vampire would never scar
and, we might infer, would never need dental treatment.
- Crew or equipment visible: Towards the end of the film, a dead
vampire is bleeding blue blood and the tube producing the "blood" is
visible.
- Continuity: In a close-up of Whistler after has speaks with
Blade, Blade has jumped some distance away, where previously they were
standing together (the shot of Blade walking away was cut).
- Continuity: When Blade and the Bloodpack are in the vampire
club searching, Verlaine has the UV Filter on her weapon on, but in the
next shot it's off.
- Continuity: The blood stain on the wall following Nomak's first
attack in the blood bank.
- Continuity: After Snowman stabs the mutant vampire in the
nightclub, he places his hands on the hilt of his sword twice without
taking them off.
- Continuity: When Chupa is firing his machine gun at a fleeing
Reaper in the vampire nightclub he accidentally shoots two ordinary
vampires, one of whom is wearing a distinctive red outfit. Then in the
next shot, the Reaper has moved along the wall a little way and Chupa is
still firing at it he accidentally kills the same two ordinary vampires
again. The distinctive outfits make it obvious.
- Continuity: After the underground battle, Nyssa lies injured
and a golden torc can be seen around her neck as she lies panting. In the
next shot, Blade raises her head from the ground, and the torc is gone.
- Continuity: When Whistler throws the sunglasses to Blade
towards the end of the film, in the near shot of Blade catching the
sunglasses, Whistler can clearly be seen in the background "throwing" the
sunglasses again well after they are caught.
- Continuity: After the fight scene between Blade, Asad, and
Nyssa; where Blade tells the 2 of them to remove their masks, Nyssa begins
to remove her mask with her left hand and then in the next shot we see it
has become her right hand.
- Crew or equipment visible: When the group is about to enter the
House of Pain, a crew member can bee seen crouching next to the door when
the Bloodpack approaches it.
- Continuity: When Blade is put on the machine to drain his
blood, the bed of spikes should pierce everything including his clothes,
but later on we see that nothing has been pierced.
- Continuity: When Blade first enters the Vampires headquarters,
Nyssa pushes several buttons on a keypad that light up in red. When we see
the keypad again, a different set of buttons are lit.
- Continuity: When Blade fights Nomak the first time, they pass
through enough daylight to cast shadows, but Nomak does not react to the
light cast on him.
- Continuity: When Rush is charging at Blade on the motorcycle he
dodges Blade's weapon and Blade is crouching at the end of the alley. In
the next shot Blade is standing and spins into a crouching position to
catch his weapon.
- Continuity: When Rush throws his motorcycle into a "lowside"
skid Blade jumps over the tail of the bike, but the next shot shows him
jump over and kick Rush square in the back.
- Continuity: When the autopsy is performed it is one under ultra
violet light which is harmful to vampires. This seems to have no effect on
any of them.
- Crew or equipment visible: When Damaskinos is running towards a
helicopter to escape, a camera shadow is visible across his back.
- Revealing mistakes: When Nyssa is dying in the sewer, Blade
cuts his wrist to let her drink. But his sword has no blood on it.
- Continuity: When Danica Talos' crew comes to pickup Blade, one
of them has a cigarette in his mouth when he reaches down to release the
arm restraint, but it disappears in subsequent shots.
- Continuity: Towards the end of the movie when Danica contracts
the virus, she is shown lying on the stairway wearing black panties. When
we see her again right before she dies, she is wearing white panties.
- Continuity: When Hannibal rescues Blade from the police
station, he puts the aerosol into Blades mouth. It disappears and
reappears in subsequent shots.
- Continuity: When Drake is on the rooftop with the baby, Drake's
lower fangs disappear briefly.
- Continuity: At the beginning of the movie we see Blade being
filmed while he shoots the vampire-wannabe. Just before Blade runs away
from the "murder scene" we see the photographer put the camera down and
start laughing. But, when we see the film on TV, we see Blade running
away.
- Continuity: When Hannibal King accidentally falls through the
skylight after killing the vamp dogs, he bangs his head on the bar than
runs across it, slightly bending it. When the SWAT cops storm the building
soon after, the bar across the skylight has no bend in it.
- Continuity: When Drake kills the goth girl, he rips off her dog
collar twice.
- Continuity: The position of Hannibal King's tatto/gliph changes
from very low in his pelvic area in one scene to right under his waist
line in a late scene.
- Errors in geography: In one of the motorcycle street shots
halfway through the movie, on the left of the screen the stationary camera
clearly shows the sign for the Vancouver City Police's East Hastings
detachment, including phone number.
- Revealing mistakes: At the start of the movie one of the
vampires (the one second from the back) has skin exposed to the sunlight
just under his glove. Since he's a Vampire his skin should burn upon
contact with the sunlight, but it doesn't.
- Continuity: After Blade is arrested, the psychiatrist's jacket
is alternately open/closed between shots.
- Continuity: When Blade first jumps his car out of the
semi-truck, one of the left-hand taillights is out. Seconds later, it is
fixed.
- Continuity: While King is being interrogated, Danica kicks him
in the face with her heel and he falls backwards. The shot cuts to Danica,
but when it cuts back to King he is on his hands and knees.
- Continuity: When Blade, Hannibal and Abbey are rescued at the
police station, the SUV smashes through the barricade and tears away at
least one headlight. After picking the trio up, the SUV drives away. The
front end is intact. No headlights are broken.
- Revealing mistakes: During the fight between Triple H and Ryan
Reynolds, there are a few punches that clearly don't hit the other person,
yet they stumble back as if they've been hit.
- Revealing mistakes: Towards the end of the fight in the
interrogation room in police HQ, Jarko is thrown through the wall. In the
frontal shot of that, the wall caves in before he hits it.
