A live-action version of the anime of the same name. Which I'm pretty sure I've seen but I can't recall much about it. Vampire girl hunts other vampires in a school is about all. Some of that is still here, but expanded with an international demon hunting conspiracy. The movie mostly takes place at an American Air Force base in 70s Japan, though parts of the movie are flashbacks to some period in feudal Japan. Some good fight scenes, though both demons and ninja-demons basically fall back on the mass rush style of tactics. Which of course is useless against the lone sword-fighter. Even I know that...
The CGI would be amazing in an older movie. Now it looks cheap, like a SyFy movie. Which does make the 2nd to last fight less dramatic than the film-makers probably wanted...
