Film: Stake Land

Post by Beards »

Has anybody seen this?

I saw it the other night and was pretty impressed - not your usual (current) vampire/zombie story - however, its more of a cross between 'The road' and '28 days later'.

Well worth watching and gives you an idea on different situations that could happen, not just with a plague, but people traveling, meeting others and crossing into/through small towns.




Product Description
A young boy (Connor Paolo, Gossip Girl) is about to learn how cruel the world can become. Martin was a normal teenager before the country collapsed in an empty pit of disaster and a vampire epidemic swept across the nation's abandoned towns and cities. It is up to Mister (Nick Damici, Mulberry Street, World Trade Center), a death dealing, rogue vampire hunter, to get Martin to safety. Armed with a trunk full of wooden stakes and a desperate will to stay alive, Mister and Martin make their way through locked down towns, recruiting fellow travelers along the way. Among them are a devout nun (Kelly McGillis, The Accused, Top Gun) and a pregnant teen (Danielle Harris, Halloween, Halloween 2)…
As with his hit, MULBERRY STREET, Jim Mickle creates a dark and terrifying world, although this time it is fully stocked with the most vicious vampires in recent film history.
STAKE LAND is a gritty, post-apocalyptic road movie with teeth!

Not too bad, as long as you take it with a pinch of salt. Not saying owt about taking out a vamp with a flimsy arrow that pierceth not the ribcage etc.
