9 Outrageous Ways Famous Movie Characters Came Back From The Dead
7. Whistler Survives A Bullet To The Head Blade II
Kris Kristofferson lent his crusty manliness to all three Blade movies, as Wesley Snipes sage mentor Whistler. His fate looked pretty sealed by the end of the first movie however. He Was Dead...: Whistler is ambushed by a gang of vampires in his hideout, and despite putting up a good fight hes quickly overwhelmed. He gets beaten almost to death, fed on by vamps and left to die. Blade finds him and honours his last wish, giving him a gun so he can finish himself. Blade then walks away as the gunshot rings out behind him. ...But He Got Better: The vampires must have really had a bone to pick with Whistler, as Blade II reveals they retrieved his body and brought him back as a vampire. They kept him alive to feed on and torture, until Blade rescues him at the start of the movie. He gives Whistler a cure for his vampirism, and after a good nights sleep hes back to normal. Not terribly plausible, but it could be argued that since Whistlers death wasnt seen on camera, that maybe he failed to kill himself. Unlikely, but at least it allowed Kristofferson to come back. Whistler subsequently died for good in Blade: Trinity though.
