Summary: 1985....
Review: OK, so this didn't have the greatest animation... it is from around 15 yearsago... you can't compare the animation of say... Evangelion of 1996, to a movie that was made about 11 years before it, its simply not fair to VHD.

At times the story is a little slow moving, but you have to watch it to the end, the end is simply the best part of the movie.

This is a classic, at its time, this had to be one of the best, and now everyone is spoiled by great anime such as evangelion and kenshin where the animation is amazing, and colors, and shading are perfect... you can't hold the animation against it... it still stands alone without it, and it was an outstanding dub... no stupid slang terms, or ghetto talk used... thank god..

Summary: somewhat dissapointing
Review: i must admit, i didnt even finish watching this movie in its entirety, but for good reason, i found it to be quite mind numbing. to start off, violence is cool, but they over do the action in this movie to the extent that its terribly corny. for example the starting scene is a woman hunting some monster and she shoots its head off, blood and everything everywhere, but its still alive and fighting, then she meets the main bad guy, a vampire that seems to have only about two cells of movement. then we come to our hero, who seems to be the ultimate warrior with a sword longer than he is and a big cape, but his head seems to be the size of a pea. and then we get into the boring, rushed story that an eight year old could have writen, and the fights arent very well thought out, with cheesy blood and gore with our invincable hero always coming out on top, he seems to go through about 500 monsters in a couple of minutes, then we come to the dubed voice acting. i have seem some bad voice acting in animes before, but this has to be the most annoying one ive ever seen, esp the little kid whose supposed to be a boy who clearly has a girls voice! i reccomend skipping this movie and getting something good, such as akira, or evangelion.

Summary: Poor Anime Ruins an interesting idea.
Review: The premise was interesting, albeit far from original.

In the far future, man has become disparate and are under the control of Vampires. It is a world of werewolves and other strange creatures.

The local Baron is Count Magnus Lee and he has become enamored with a resident. He is bored and needs a little action. While having bitten the young woman, he sends her home, until the night he will marry her. Instead of accepting her fate, she hires a vampire hunter named D, who is a half vampire decendent of Count Dracula himself.

The animation is weak, almost at the Ralph Bakshi level and the dubbing is poor. The characters are static and the action is fairly lame. It is gory but the movie is so weak that without the blood, the movie would have been a complete waste of time.

If you like horror movies, try Devilman instead.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: this Movie RULES!!!
Review: a very cool anime horror fantasy that should be added to anyone's collection. i would also recommend " The Princess Bride", " The Dark Crystal", " The Last Unicorn", " The Hobbit", "the Neverending Story", " Transformers: The Movie", and " Return to Oz" to go with this Movie.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Ultra COOL! The Best EVER!
Review: Vampire Hunter D is the BEST ANIME/Horror Movie I've ever seen with two of the Majorly COOOOLLEST characters in all anime, Reganze and D himself, that I've ever seen! True, the drawing may need some work but it works just right! Afterall it was made in the 80's and D still looks like a major BABE! The plot is soooo great, PERFECT for a vampire movie and the characters are soooo right due to great character development! I must admit that at first I wasn't too sure about Vampire Hunter D when I first saw it due to uneeded violence...I mean, I like action and bloodshed anime, but they really had some graphic stuff that seemed like it was just stuffed in their for no reason at all but WOOOOWEEEE! When I actually paid attention to it and it's magnificent unique story line, it became my #1! IT'S THE BEST! So if your in for a super cool vampire anime plot and GREAT character development,(even D's talking hand) Then This Is A MUST ABSOLUTELY HAVE! Actually, if you just started watching anime, this one should be on the top of the list to buy next, and if your a hardcore ANIME FANATIC, You HAD to already seen this one...RIGHT! SAYONARA! ^_^

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: just plain awesome!
Review: this movie is the best and theres nothin else to say except that D is the best

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: D is just too cool
Review: Probably my all time favorite anime (manga) flick, and as I've seen a bunch of 'em and this is the one I hold their standards to, I guess it has to be pretty good!

The voices are well-dubbed, the violence is well orchastrated, and the story is pretty cool. Admittingly the animation itself is very "Speed-Racer" like, and a little choppy. If you watch more for the impressive graphics... this isn't for you... but if you like a dark, violent, sword-fighting hero, you're going to love Vampire Hunter D!

I hope they release the DVD version of this one soon!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Wicked
Review: This was the first anime movie i ever seen and its my fav. I got the original release and both the dub and sub re-release. Waching the subtitled verson was almost like waching a directors cut. If you love VHD then see the subtitled verson. It'll make it seem like a whole new movie. I cant wait for the DVD verson.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Good to the last blood drop
Review: Vampire Hunter D is a surreal futuristic horror classic. The first time I saw Vampire Hunter D it was about 3:00 in the morning at my friends sleepover my friend "Noin" suggested we watch a movie and frankly I did not feel like watching Billy Madison again, so she Vampire Hunter D on. I was completely blown away. The makers of this film did a nice job in creating the dark blood-stained atmosphere of the new earth. This movie was good to the last blood drop. *note* this movie is for mature audiences only and not for those of weak hearts or stomachs due to the extreme demon hacking and bloody footage throughout the entire movie. This movie also contains brief nudity but the cursing isn't really enough to be recognized.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: One of the best all time classic.
Review: Vampire Hunter D is what made me a huge anime fan. This is one of the all time classic anime that will be around for a long time. It gives you that eerie feeling when you are watching this movie, with its gothic feel and horror style music. I have been waiting for this to come out on video, ever since they took it off the shelves. I've only seen this movie on TV and that did it for me. This is one of those anime movies that you just got to have in your collection, if your a O.G. anime fan. You can't go wrong with this movie. I just love this movie!
