Marcus Trumpp: Blood - The Last Vampire

The live action remake of the animated Blood: The Last Vampire, an award-winning Japanese film from 2000, gets an original score by Marcus Trumpp. The 34-year old German composer has previously written stylish orchestral scores for The Breed and Hollow Man 2, and has worked extensively as an orchestrator and additional music writer for Marco Beltrami on many films, including Live Free or Die Hard, I, Robot and 3:10 to Yuma. Starring Gianna Yun, Allison Miller and Masiela Lusha, the new version of Blood: The Last Vampire is directed by French helmer Chris Nahon (Kiss of the Dragon) and is about a vampire who is a member of a secret agency in post-WW2 Japan with the mission to hunt down and destroy demons in Japan after WW2.
