Two Character Reels for Jim Mickle's Vampire Thriller Stake Land: "Willie" and "Jebedia"

There are two more character prequels available for Jim Mickle's Stake Land. The first is titled "Willie" (Sean Nelson) and the second is named "Jebedia" (Michael Cerveris). Both clips are meant as teases for the film release and therefore, they are tense but slow. The reels will give viewers a sense of the environments in which these characters travel, as well as some of their motivations e.g. religious (Jebediah) and familial (Willie). Have a look at the clips below.

As well, news has filtered out today that two more "mini-vignettes" have been developed for the characters Sister (Kelly McGillis) and Mister (Larry Fessenden). Both of these clips are expected to release before Stake Land hits theatres and video-on-demand formats, April 22nd. All the details on this exciting post-apocalyptic film will be delivered as they become available!

The synopsis for Stake Land is here:

"America is a lost nation. When an epidemic of vampirism strikes, humans find themselves on the run from vicious, feral beasts. Cities are tombs and survivors cling together in rural pockets, fearful of nightfall. When his family is slaughtered, young Martin (Connor Paolo) is taken under the wing of a grizzled, wayward hunter (Nick Damici) whose new prey are the undead.

Simply known as Mister, the vampire stalker takes Martin on a journey through the locked-down towns of America's heartland, searching for a better place while taking down any bloodsuckers that cross their path. Along the way they recruit fellow travellers, including a nun (Kelly McGillis) who is caught in a crisis of faith when her followers turn into ravenous beasts. This ragtag family unit cautiously moves north, avoiding major thoroughfares that have been seized by The Brethren, a fundamentalist militia headed by Jebedia Loven (Michael Cerveris) that interprets the plague as the Lord's work.

Release Date: April 22nd, 2011 (Limited Theatrical, VOD).

Director: Jim Mickle.

Writer: Nick Damici, and Jim Mickle.

Cast: Danielle Harris, Larry Fessenden, Nick Damici, Connor Paolo, Michael Cerveris, Marianne Hagan, Traci Hovel, Sean Nelson, and Kelly Mcgillis.
