He was still in apex predator mode in a major way. Not at all in a mood to tolerate Beth and her pushiness at the moment.

I'm sure that this has occurred to other folks before, but doesn't it seem like the process of staking a vampire has two different parts? It's like the stake goes in and that does the initial paralysis, then there is a second step, twisting the stake or driving it deeper than produces a more intense result. Like when Gerald Stofsky stakes Mick, then digs it in a little deeper and Mick reacts to the second staking, differently.
Also, it seems like there are degrees of paralysis depending on how old the vampire is. Dr. Pollock was frozen in midexpression. Mick was still able to whisper to Beth, 'take it out!' and Coraline after Mick staked her to save baby Beth, was able to get up and look out of the window at them before falling back into the flames.
May all be my imagination, but I thought these were interesting.
