BloodRayne 2: Deliverance (also known as BloodRayne 2 or BloodRayne: Deliverance) is a 2007 direct-to-DVD Western horror film, set in 1880s America, and directed by Uwe Boll. The film is a sequel to the 2005 film BloodRayne , which was also directed by Uwe Boll, and stars Kristanna Loken. In Deliverance, Natassia Malthe replaces Loken in the lead role. [1]
Newton Piles (Chris Coppola), a reporter on assignment for the Chicago Chronicle, has come to the town of Deliverance, Montana, to record tales of the Wild West. The peaceful and quiet town is expecting the arrival of the first Transcontinental Railroad in one week. Along with the railroad, however, arrives an unwelcome and deadly guest, a vampiric Billy the Kid. Using the railway, the 357-year-old Transylvanian vampire is building an army of cowboy vampires to take over the country and create a vampire kingdom in the New World. Billy and his horde go on a rampage, slaughtering townspeople and rounding up children. Billy spares Newton's life and promises Newton the greatest story ever told.
Billy's plans hit a snag when Rayne arrives in the town. Rayne is a Dhampir, the product of an unnatural union between a vampire and a human: she wields all the powers of a vampire, yet none of the weaknesses. Born over a century earlier in Romania, Rayne has hunted vampires for a long time and now she sets her sights on Billy.
BloodRayne 2: Deliverance, received generally negative reviews. It holds a 0% rating on Rotten Tomatoes based on five reviews with critics panning it as: "Slow-paced, dry and anything but sexy." [2]
A sequel titled BloodRayne: The Third Reich featuring Natassia Malthe was released in 2011.
