Top review

Subspecies, classic vampire story.

I thought that it was excellent the whole way through, it never got boring. I was very impressed by the Actors and the film- ing location. They did a lot of good acting, personally myself I thought that Mara had the best part.

I am a big "Irina Movila" fan. I really enjoyed watching her throughout the whole movie. Subspecies was great.
