Movie Reviews of Subspecies: The Epic Collection
Movie Review: Whether you spell it Vampyre or Vampire, The Blood Is the Life!
Summary: 5 Stars
The locations and sets alone make this direct-to-video series of films really quite extraordinary. Filmed in the city of Bucharest and the Transylvania region of Romania, Subspecies was one of the first films shot in post-Soviet Romania and many of the locations would go on to be used in a number of Full Moon productions. Angus Scrimm has a relatively minor role in the first film. The real star of most of this series is Anders Hove, an extremely talented and meticulous actor who brings a refreshing intensity to all his rolls. In this case, Hove portrays the character Radu, a "Nosferatu-esque" type vampire in the Masquerade sense of the word. Ted Nicolaou directs; his masterful use of backlighting and shadows give the films a genuinely gothic feel. If you are a fan of Full Moon this series is one of their best. The DVDs upconvert to widescreen 1080 dpi fairly well, although there is some occasional graininess. The sound is slightly substandard for DVD but still quite good.
