The Breed was a 2001 horror film with an estimated budget of 4 million dollars.
The film features a dystopic future in which vampires are a marginalized race living in formerly Jewish ghettos, often shot in actual abandoned Jewish ghettos. Another major influence in the look of the film is Terry Gilliam's Brazil (film).

[edit] Synopsis
A police officer (Bokeem Woodbine), in an unidentified future, investigates a series of strange murders. His superiors introduce him to another officer (Adrian Paul) who helps him throughout the movie. They learn that a separate species of vampires exists and plans to integrate themselves with the rest of humanity. One of these vampires is responsible for the murders and the other vampires want to help catch the perpetrator. Aiding the officers is a female vampire named Lucy Westenra (played by Bai Ling). In absolute secrecy, humans have created a virus that is capable of killing only vampires while leave humanity unharmed. The virus is made as a failsafe device, in case the plan to coexist between vampires and humans fails. Hidden in a veil of deceit, the elder vampire makes a cynical plan to eradicate humanity. He forces the creator of the vampire virus to alter the nature of virus, making it deadly to humans and not to vampires. Only due to the trust between the human police officers and their vampire partner is this deadly plot brought to an end.
