Still good in 2023

"Stake Land" is a thought-provoking and well-executed vampire film that offers a fresh take on the genre. With its strong performances, atmospheric cinematography, and a compelling blend of genres, the movie stands out as a notable entry in the post-apocalyptic and horror genres. If you enjoy character-driven stories set in dystopian settings, "Stake Land" is definitely worth a watch.

The film's atmosphere is bleak and haunting, capturing a sense of desolation and hopelessness. The cinematography effectively captures the desolate landscapes, abandoned towns, and darkened forests, further enhancing the post-apocalyptic atmosphere. The sparse use of music and sound design contributes to the overall sense of unease, creating a tense and foreboding ambiance throughout the film.
