Editorial Reviews

If that isn't enough of a title, it's also subtitled "The Master's Revenge." The old master is Radu Vladislas, the same bloodsucker from the other Subspecies movies. Michelle (Denise Duff) is back once more as well, although her sister gets knocked off unceremoniously in the first few minutes. It's impossible not to warm a little to a film that has the line, "So what brings you to Bucharest, master?" and this film doesn't mess around delivering what its audience wants. That means blood, lots of blood, and everybody talks with their mouths full. Vampires can't seem to wipe their chins, but they sure are plucky. Filmmakers pretty much expect that you've seen the first three films. The DVD also has a cheapo video release update, showing off the latest Blood Dolls and Puppet Master films, as well as a "making of" for this film. Hope this doesn't disappoint, but there is no actual storm of blood. Tsk, tsk, what a shame. --Keith Simanton

4.0 out of 5 stars Why aren't Subspecies 1,2 & 3 on DVD!!, November 3, 2003

This review is from: Subspecies 4: Bloodstorm (DVD)

The Subspecies series is one of the best vampire saga's out there. Though they are low budget, they use their budget well and they have wonderful gothic atmospheres. What makes me mad is that only Subspecies 4 is on DVD! You cannot have one Subspecies movie without the others; they are all connected like one big long movie. The VHS versions of Subspecies 1-3 are even out-of-print, so there is no way to get the entire series anymore! This is terrible for fans just getting into the series and as a result they are forced to purchase bootlegged copies. What makes me wonder is if they will ever release the others again because Full Moon pictures has just folded and has gone out of business. This is a scary thought indeed. Lets just hope that someday, the first three gems will be re-released.

This review is from: Subspecies 4: Bloodstorm (DVD)

Over six years ago I happened upon an unknown vampire series called Subspecies. I was shocked at how much I enjoyed them and have missed em ever since. Now, here is a way to revisit Romania and our favorite vampires portrayed by Denice Duff and Anders Hove.

This DVD is equipped with the Full Moon Pictures VideoZone (which accompanies almost all their flicks). It contains behind the scenes footage and interviews.

There are two commentary tracks provided by Director Ted Nicolau and Denice Duff. Mr. Nicolau's commentary is enjoyable. He provides us with all the little technical problems and enhancements that had to go into this movie. Denice Duff's commentary is hilarious. Her stories of what happened with the actors behind the scenes and how they felt was outstanding.

There are also some Bio pages included on this DVD as well.

Overall a classic. If you like Full Moon Pictures, a must have. If you've followed the Subspecies movies, ditto. If you are a fan of Vampire movies double ditto.

This review is from: Subspecies 4: Bloodstorm (DVD)

I like collecting DVDs of movies I liked as a kid for nostalgia, and I was really into Full Moon movies. The Puppet Master series, Dollman, Demonic toys, Pit & The Pendulum, Trancers, Crash and Burn and Subspecies. Most of these original DVDs are hard to find. For those that don't know a few years ago Full Moon sold their DVD rights to Paramount to market their movies. But Koch video released many official Full Moon movies on DVD illegally causing a big fall out between Full Moon and Paramount. The original Subspecies was released on R1 DVD (other movies released were Puppet Master I and II, Puppet Master boxed set, Crash and Burn, Pit & Pendulum and Demonic Toys.

I am still quite surprised at how much I enjoy them. There is really nothing to say about Bloodstorm that other reviewers haven't. If you are a fan of the series then by all means buy it. This brings some closure to the series but its very necessary to see the other 3 movies first.

This DVD comes with the usual Full Moon VideoZone. There are two commentary tracks provided by Director Ted Nicolau and Denise Duff. Mr. Nicolau's commentary is excellent. He provides with all the intricate technical problems and enhancements that had to go into this movie. Denise Duff's commentary is very funny.
