stake land




stake land is made for the reader of fangoria magazine. gory, made with a small budget and mean as hell. telling the story of a pot apocalyptic america after a vampire plague, this film works because it doesn't have big special effects shots of cities being destroyed.. it makes it al personal by keeping a tight focus on a few characters and letting them loss on a landscape as familiar as you might see outside your front door. this claustrophobic approach should be used more in modern horror films. not a great movie but a very fun piece of horror fiction.
