5/10
Worst Installation In The Series.
6 October 2021
With Subspecies: Bloodlust ending with them driving away, Subspecies: Awakening begins with them all having died in a car crash.

However, Michelle wakes up when a good samaritan opens up the body bag she's in, exposing her to the sunlight.

This is the exact moment you realize that the acting in this film is severely worse than in the previous films; and the special effects budget has been thrown out the window.

But I guess that's what you should expect when the first five minutes are a pure recap.

This film focuses on the mad doctor that Michelle has been brought to for treatment.

He's both a vampire- and sexual psychopath- who assaults his young accomplice at every given oppourtunity.

Somehow, he has has managed to discover a regimen of drugs that allow him to walk in the sun unaffected...though, he must still feed on blood to survive.

Considering this, he lusts after the bloodstone.

And, thus, seeks to use Michelle to lure Radu there...so that he can kill him, and take the relic for himself.

However, he's not the only one after it.

A fledgling of one of his fledglings also wants it for herself and her master...after being rejected by Radu.

But they must recruit a mortal to do the job.

So they turn to the young doctor.

Who they seek to ruse, so that they can retrieve the bloodstone for themselves.

But there's always a twist...

In all honesty, I'd only watch this if you've already invested time in the series...because it's definitely the worst of the four.

Although apparently not the last, as there seems to be another one in production.

So I guess the saga continues...let's see how that plays out.
