One-Night-Only Event ‘Subspecies V: Bloodrise’, The 5th Film In The Iconic Vampire Movie Series

Alamo Drafthouse Cinema and Full Moon Features are excited to announce the limited theatrical premiere of director Ted Nicolaou’s SUBSPECIES V: BLOODRISE, the fifth frightening entry in the venerable Full Moon film franchise.

SUBSPECIES V: BLOODRISE follows the descent of Radu (once more played by series regular Anders Hove) from a noble warrior of the Church to a depraved, blood-hungry creature of the night. Stolen by crusaders on the night of his birth from his demon mother and vampire father, Radu grows up with no knowledge of his monstrous bloodline. Trained and exploited by a brotherhood of mystic monks to slay all enemies of the church, fate brings him back one night to his father’s castle, armed with the monster-slaying Sword of Laertes, to destroy the vampire Vladislas and reclaim a holy relic, the Bloodstone.

SUBSPECIES V: BLOODRISE is directed by series mainstay Ted Nicolaou (TERRORVISION), making SUBSPECIES one of the only horror franchises in which every entry is helmed by the same director.

The movie – which tells the origin story of the immortal bloodsucker Radu – will play at 26 Alamo Drafthouse locations for a special engagement on Monday, May 15th, 2023 as part of the company’s fabled Graveyard Shift series. The special Graveyard Shift presentation will include an exclusive introduction and pre-recorded post-screening Q&A with members of the cast and director, Ted Nicolaou.
