Subspecies V: Blood Rise trailer: Radu returns later this month!

Once a Full Moon production has completed filming, the company doesn’t waste any time getting that movie out into the world. Only five months have passed since we heard that the long-awaited Subspecies V: Blood Rise had finally started filming (more than twenty years after the release of the previous entry in the series), with franchise director Ted Nicolaou back at the helm. Now a trailer for Subspecies V: Blood Rise has arrived online, along with the announcement that the movie is set to exclusively premiere on FullMoonFeatures.com later this month! It will also be made available on Amazon Prime shortly after its debut.

Produced by Full Moon founder Charles Band and scripted by Nicolaou, Subspecies V: Blood Rise has the following synopsis: Stolen by crusaders on the night of his birth, he has no knowledge of his bloodline: his mother is a demon; his father is a vampire. Trained and exploited by a brotherhood of mystic monks to slay all enemies of the church, fate brings him back one night to the castle of his father, armed with the monster-slaying Sword of Laertes, to destroy the vampire Vladislas and reclaim a holy relic: The Bloodstone. The events of that night turn Radu from a noble man into a vampire with no master, setting him on a centuries-long quest for sustenance, and companionship, for the treacherous one who stole him from the sun, and for the Bloodstone he hopes will bring him peace. Spanning 500 years in the life of the vampire Radu Vladislas, this long-anticipated prequel to the Subspecies series chronicles Radu’s descent from a noble warrior for the Church to a depraved creature of the night.

Anders Hove reprises the role of Radu and is joined in the cast by Denice Duff and Kevin Spirtas, both of whom have been in previous Subspecies movies. While Duff played the character Michelle in all of the previous sequels, for this movie she’s playing a new character, Helena. Spirtas played a character named Mel in his other Subspecies appearances, but here his character is Vladislas. Also in the cast are Staša Nikolić as Ariel, Marko Filipović as Ash, Petar Arsić as Marius, Yulia Graut as Circe, Olivera Peruničić as Diana, and Jakov Marjanović as Stefan.

Ash may be the character who took the lead in the 1997 Subspecies spin-off The Vampire Journals, which was also made by Nicolaou.
