Cast and Crew of Subspecies V: Blood Rise

Subspecies V: Blood Rise

'Subspecies V: Blood Rise' follows Radu, who was abducted as a baby by crusaders and unaware of his supernatural heritage—his mother is a demon and his father a vampire. Raised by a secretive brotherhood of monks trained to eliminate evil, Radu is sent to confront his vampire father, Vladislas, at the ancestral castle to retrieve a sacred relic, the Bloodstone. However, this confrontation transforms him into a rogue vampire, propelling him into a centuries-long search for blood, allies, and the Bloodstone to find peace.

Trivia:
1. Anders Hove, who portrays Radu, is the only actor to appear in every film in the Subspecies series, bringing a consistent intensity to the character across decades.
2. The Sword of Laertes featured in the film is not just a prop but was inspired by actual medieval weaponry, designed to add authenticity to the vampire lore.
3. The castle scenes were shot on location in Romania, utilizing authentic Transylvanian architecture to enhance the film's gothic atmosphere.
