Picking up the moment Bloodstone left off, Michelle (Denice Duff) is in the vile clutches of Mummy (Pamela Gordon). Using her blood, Mummy resurrects Radu (Anders Hove). Outside the crypt, Rebecca has called Lieutenant Marin (Ion Haiduc) and Mel Thompson (Kevin Blair) who have surrounded the place with police. Fearing capture – or worse – Radu invokes a spell that transports the trio back to Castle Vladislas. It’s here that Michelle seems to accept her fate as Radu’s fledgling and urges him to teach her the ways of the vampire. However, Mummy fears that Michelle will be their downfall and orders Radu to destroy her. Now conflicted Radu must decide whether to keep the one he loves or destroy her to keep his own life.

Of the three films this one has the thinnest plot consisting mostly of Radu and Michelle exchanging dialogue with Mummy warning Radu that Michelle needs to be destroyed before she destroys both of them. This one also features the most comedy, making it an uneven film, though one moment featuring Radu with a gun to his head is played to comic perfection.

Like the previous film, this one looks nothing short of spectacular. Most films that are mostly dark tend to look washed out, but this one looks great. The blacks are deep, dark and consistent throughout with the occasional daytime scene providing colors that really pop.

The special features here are a bit of a mixed bag. First up is the commentary track from writer/director Ted Nicoleau, Denice Duff and Anders Hove. It’s a little livelier than the previous film’s track, but is still a bit frustrating as most of the time is devoted to describing the action on screen, though a few anecdotes make their way in saving this from being too dull.

*I received a review copy of this film in exchange for an honest review

I sometimes wonder if certain directors can read my mind. These directors seem to have a direct link to my brain because they know exactly what I want in terms of movies. Director Ted Nicolaou is one of these fabled few. He is responsible for one of my favorite corn-ball, horror gore-flicks from the 80s, TERRORVISION. But he’s also the mastermind behind the SUBSPECIES series, a gothic vampire tale that is actually shot in Transylvania. And if you have lost faith in vampires, give Nicolaou a try. I doubt you’ll be disappointed.

SUBSPECIES 3: BLOODLUST is the most recent Blu-ray release in the series, and the fine folks at Full Moon Direct have done a marvelous job of bringing it to life in HD.

I am again impressed with how this film picks up literally just minutes after SUBSPECIES 2 ends. The continuity is superb, although they probably shot these two films back-to-back to preserve that aspect. Still, it makes for a great film experience.

SUBSPECIES 3: BLOODLUST is shot well and the HD transfer looks great onscreen. Great care seems to have been taken in the restoration of the film; I saw a DVD version of this a while back, and the picture quality was nowhere near as good as this. I tip my hat to Full Moon for their efforts.

The acting, again, is great with Anders Hove and Denice Duff reprising their roles. Hove continues to shine as Radu. The man has an amazing ability to act and sound the way I imagine a centuries-old bloodsucker would.

The special effects are very good as well, and we get more gore than the previous film. I have to brag about the stop motion effects used for the little demon-imps. For being a lower budget picture, the effects look awesome, and you can hardly tell it is stop motion.

SUBSPECIES 3: BLOODLUST is another big win for Full Moon, and I recommend it.

Overall a fun watch for fans of the franchise, but it's lost a good bit of the joie de vive that fueled part 2 and made part 1 a breakthrough DTV film.

SIDEBAR: This was filmed back to back with Subspecies II, which follows in the spirit of the franchise by picking up exactly where this movie ends.

Michelle's sister Becky narrates as this sequel picks up immediately where Subspecies II left off: After defeating Radu (Anders Hove; Subspecies I-IV, Critters 4), Becky must wait until dark to escape with her vampire sister Michelle (Denice Duff; Subspecies II-IV), who is abducted in the final moments by Radu's "Mummy" (Pamela Gordon; Weird Science, Poltergeist II, Subspecies II), a crone-like ghoul akin to an unwrapped mummy.

While not holding a candle to the AMAZING opening scene of Subspecies II, Bloodlust opens with a brief, concerted effort at delivering some gore, wincing wrist slicing and face stabs to get us excited in this sequel's opening. During this scene, Mummy resurrects Radu and the two of them steal Michelle away because, evidently, Michelle and Radu are to be bound together forever. That's Radu's idea anyway.

With little contribution from Lt. Marin, Becky and embassy representative Mel continue to try to save Michelle for the entire second act of the movie. This portion of the story is slow, unexciting, and hardly informative--it just drags. Meanwhile Mummy whispers poison in Radu's ear in hopes that he'll destroy Michelle instead of weaning her away from her ties to mortality. Ignoring the classic adage that "evil witch vampire Mummy knows best," Radu teaches Michelle to focus her heightened senses, move through the shadows and hunt human prey.
