Bloodlust: Subspecies III
NOTE: Sequel to Subspecies II: Bloodstone (1993).Mummy heals Radu's wounds while Becky summons Mel Thompson and Lt Marin to the
tomb in the cemetery. They find Professor Popescu's body but nothing else to
substantiate Becky's story about vampires and a witch. As night
approaches, Radu, Mummy and Michelle leave the tomb and return to Castle
Vladislav. Becky, Mel and Lt. Marin follow but cannot enter the castle
because the professor's secret entrance has been blown up.Villagers begin to disappear. Mel calls his CIA friend, who shows up at the castle
with silver bullets and full commando regalia. He and Mel scale the
castle wall. Mummy kills the CIA agent, imprisons Mel, and orders Radu to kill
Michelle. But Radu is in love with Michelle and beheads Mummy instead.
Radu begins to realize that he has killed off his entire bloodline out of
love for Michelle and bargains with her--Michelle's devotion for Becky's
life. Michelle agrees and goes outside to talk with Becky. Radu kills Lt
Marin who is watching from the bushes. Becky holds a gun with silver
bullets to Radu's head and orders him to release Mel. Michelle takes the
gun from Becky and turns it on Radu. She retrieves the bloodstone then,
along with Becky and Mel, runs from the castle with Radu in pursuit.But daylight is approaching, and both Radu and Michelle are in pain. Becky and
Mel zip Michelle into a light tight body bag and toss the bloodstone over
the castle wall. Radu attempts to retrieve it but the sun is too strong.
He catches on fire, tumbles over the castle wall, and is staked on the
limb of a dead tree. As Radu's body is destroyed, drops of his blood
transform into his subspecies. [Synopsis by BJ Kuehl]
