BD Review: ‘Stake Land’ An Ambitious Stab at Vamp Genre
I’m ready to take a beating on this one. I have yet to meet a single person who didn’t enjoy Jim Mickle’s Stake Land, his post-apocalyptic quasi-vampire film now in limited theaters from Dark Sky Films. Thus, take my review with a grain of salt, because apparently I’m out of my mind.
“Even through all of the flaws, Mickle and Damici deliver a highly ambitious film that was probably too much to handle.”

Christopher Landon (Happy Death Day, Freaky) is staying busy here in 2024, directing not only the werewolf movie Big Bad but also an upcoming thriller titled Drop.
The project for Blumhouse and Platinum Dunes is being described as a “fast-paced thriller,” and Deadline reports today that Violett Beane (Truth or Dare) has joined the cast.
Newcomer Jacob Robinson has also signed on to star in the mysterious thriller. Previously announced, Meghann Fahy (“White Lotus”) will be leading the cast.
Landon recently teased on Twitter, “This is my love letter to DePalma.”
Jillian Jacobs and Chris Roach wrote the script.
Michael Bay, Jason Blum, Brad Fuller and Cameron Fuller — “who brought the script in to Platinum Dunes” — are producing the upcoming Drop. Sam Lerner is an executive producer.
THR notes, “The film is a Platinum Dunes and Blumhouse production for Universal.”
