Razor Blade Smile tells the story of Lilith Silver, a 19th century English woman, who has become one of the undead, after she has tried to stop a duel between her then-lover and Sir Sethane Blake, a vampire. In 1990's London, she acts as a hired killer who has taken up an assignment to eliminate a group of elite businessmen, 'The Illuminati', who are conspiring to take control over business and government. During this assignment, her path again crosses that of Sir Sethane Blake, leading to a surprising climax.
A 16mm indie film in the tradition of El Mariachi and The Evil Dead, it was shot on a total budget of US$ 27,500 (!). For this reason, it is not surprising that most of the guns used in the movie are either blank firing guns or plastic dummies. Razor Blade Smile came out in 1998, the same year as Blade, but the similarities do not end here. Both movies tell the story of a lone, leather-clad hero who fights a shadow-war with a might opponent, using samurai swords and lots of guns.
The following guns were used in the film Razor Blade Smile:
_TOC_
Bruni 1911
This blank firing gun is the weapon of choice for both Lilith Silver as well as Illuminati thugs.
Mini Uzi
A Mini Uzi is seen in the coffin that Lilith Silver uses as her weapons chest. She never uses it in the movie though.
Olimpyk 6
This blank firing revolver, recognizable by the signature ribbed ejector rod, is seen in Lilith's weapons chest plus in the hands of Detective Inspector Price (Jonathan Cooke).
Bruni 92
This blank firing replica of a Beretta 92 is seen in the hands of most actors in this movie. It can be identified as such by the crude black grips plus the top firing muzzle flash.
Unidentified flintlock gun
During the duel at the beginning of the movie, this flintlock gun is used by both Sir Sethane Blake, his opponent (and then Lilith's lover) Jack Ryder plus Lilith Silver herself when she tries to shoot Sir Sethane Blake. It would be expected that a percussion cap gun is used due to this scene taking place in 1850, but that's probably a historic err due to the tight budget of the movie.
