 "SUBSPECIES" -The Epic Collection October 14, 2008
"Subpecies" is perhaps the scariest of all vampire films series, so far.
Filmed in "vampire territory" Romania, it displays terrifying scenes. Starring Anders Hove as "Radu" an evil vampire who's sidekick called "Mummy" is brilliantly portrayed by Pamela Gordon. They both do outstanding acting and portraying jobs. Other supporting stars are Angus Scrimm, Denice Duff, Melanie Shatner, Kevin Spirtas and Ion Haiduc as Romanian Police lieutenant Marin. This series is far more scary than anything produced on film of this genre since the early days of "Nosferatu". Definitely not to be missed by all horror films fans. I highly recommend it.
 Classics. You simply cannot miss. October 12, 2008
I remember seeing the first Subspecies when I was just much younger, some 15 years ago. It was one of the very first vampire movie I had ever seen and it scared me to hell. Also, it made a huge impact on me. Since then I have developed this huge love for vampires and gothic fiction (I actually am doing my post-graduation on the subject...) as a whole.
Still, it had been a long time since I hadn't seen the movie. I had seen it that ONE time and never again. So, now, with this boxset, it was time to revisit the movie and get to see the sequels, which I had never seen before.
To my great surprise, I remembered vividly some of the stuff on the first movie (I was around 7 when I saw it). It has aged a bit, but the Romenian atmosphere of the movie is simply breathtaking. Filming on locations was essential for this movie. Radu, the evil vampire, is also one of the scariest I have ever seen. I was right from the beginning...
As for the sequels, it was very exciting for me to see how the story would continue, after all these years. And in the end, I guess I enjoyed Subspecies II and III even more than I enjoyed the first! These are truly scary movies.
The DVDs include short but effective docummentaries on the making of each one of the movies. This is money spent well.
If you love the subject this is one box you simply cannot miss.
Full Moon Fanatic's Review September 30, 2008
I won't waste a lot of time reviewing the individual flicks (chance are, if you are reading this, you already know what these films are about..if not, in my opinion, these are some of the best vampire movies made).
I was hesitant to buy this box set, sight unseen, but I finally bit the bullet and bought it. And I am not disappointed. The pictures look slightly better than new VHS (ditto with the sound) and there is little for extras, but for fans of these movies who's tapes have long since disintigrated, this box set is more than worthy replacement!
The best vampire films September 19, 2008
It was only recently that I saw these films and I was greatly impressed. In my view, many other vampire films have drifted away from the vital essence of the genre, but this series has captured it perfectly. The gothic atmosphere, helped by filming in Romania, is wonderful. The characters are perfect; Anders Hove makes a wonderful villain; evil and yet with a touch of sadness and a bit of madness thrown in. Denice Duff is superb as the heroine struggling to maintain some of her humanity. All the other actors do a superb job as well; their characters really come to life. There are some great moments of suspense, intrigue, atmosphere and of course horror in all the films. There is even just a touch of humour occasionally. The director did a superb job with all these films. Don't miss these films if you like horror films. Of course the stories are far-fetched but they are wonderfully entertaining and perfectly capture everything that is needed for the best vampire films ever. I hope that one day Full Moon productions will make Subspecies V. If it ever happens and it turns out to be as good as the previous films, it will be something to look forward to.
My best Favourite Vampyre Movie Ever! September 16, 2008
For Vampyres Movie lovers SUBSPECIES it's a must! I love Rumania, the music of this film is amazing, Anders Hove and Denice Duff makes the main attraction of the movie. Ted Nicolau it's a great director as well and he created a legacy in vampyre movies of the 90's.
