Relic Hunter
307 Vampire's Kiss

(stanislav:)glory and
praise to you, o satan,

In the heights of heaven,
where you reigned

And in the depths of
hell where

Vanquished you dream
in silence.

Grant that my soul may
someday repose near

To you under the tree
of knowledge,

When over your brow

Its branches spread
like a new temple.

Satan, who commutes with
us through dreams

And fantasies and desires,

I now partake of your blood,

The blood of thy blood,

The soul of your creation.

(peasant 1:)death to
the vampire.

(peasant 2:)open the
door.

(peasant 1:)break it
down.

(peasant 2:)open the
door.

(peasant 1:)die.

(peasant 2)harder.

[door crashing]

Where is he?

I don't see
him.

He can't have
escaped.

He must be
hiding.

We are too
late.

(syd:)hello.

(nigel:)welcome
back.

Oh, here, let me
drop my stuff off.

I'll help you
grade those.

(nigel:)that would be
very much appreciated.

That's odd.

What's odd?

Karen left her
stuff behind.

She's still
on campus.

At this hour?

Night classes.

She actually seemed
quite excited about them.

Really?

Whose class?

Seduction.

It's the vampire's
strongest weapon.

In classical
literature

And in my own
novels,

The vampire's most
satisfying victims

Are almost always
willing.

God knows I
would be.

(lucas:)many
have asked:

Why is it that
the vampire

Is so attractive

As a literary
figure...

And why, particularly,
to women?

Is it the danger,

The taboo?

The incredible
butt.

[laughing]

Sorry.

Go on.

Thank you.

(lucas:)the secret
to the vampire's

Attraction is
simply this:

He's the consummate
lover.

He finds the deepest,

Most secret desires
of his victim

And then does
everything

He can to give
it to her.

That's all we have
time for.

Have up to chapter
10 read by next week.

And as you're
leaving,

Remember to walk
in pairs.

You never know what could
be lurking out there.

Karen, isn't it?

Karen patresky.

Oh, good.

I'm glad we finally
have a moment alone.

Oh?

I've been meaning
to talk to you.

Actually, you
know,

Now's not really
a good time.

There's some
place I...

I really must
insist.

(syd:)a vampire
working on this campus?

His name's lucas
blackmer.

He's the writer
-in-residence.

(nigel:)I've heard
of him, the novelist.

Best-selling
novelist.

The waiting list to
get into his class

Is like a frickin'
phone book.

I had no idea you were
such a fan of literature.

I'm not, but
a famous writer,

A vanity class on
gothic romance novels...

How tough could
it be?

Okay, plus he's
a complete babe.

If the women in
his class

Drooled over him any
more, they'd dehydrate

And you were saying the
campus rumour is that

Blackmer doesn't just
write about vampires,

He is one?

Look, I didn't
believe it either,

But today, he asked
me to stay after class.

I thought maybe

He was just going
to hit on me,

But all he wanted to
talk about was you.

Me?

Your background,
what you like,

If you'd help him
research his new book.

And that convinced
you he was a vampire?

Look, it wasn't
what he said,

It was the way
he said it.

Something about his
eyes, those green eyes.

I'm not interrupting,
am I?

No, not at all.

Professor blackmer,
this is...

Sydney fox.

Ah, your reputation
precedes you.

As does yours.

Oh, does me justice,
I hope.

I'll get back to
you on that.

Touché.

Do you have a
moment?

Absolutely.
In my office?

Actually, I was

Hoping we could
take a stroll.

Such a beautiful
evening outside.

Okay.

(syd:)karen tells
me you need my help

For a novel you're
writing.

In a manner of
speaking.

See? Like we're not
even in the room.

(lucas:)part of
writing my novels,

I do extensive
research.

(syd:)sounds
fascinating.

Have you ever read
any of my work?

I'm more non
-fiction.

I base my characters,
whenever possible,

On real historical
figures.

The book I'm writing
at the moment

Concerns the famous
count stanislav.

Never heard
of him.

Yes, well, perhaps
I should have said

"famous in occult
circles".

Stanislav was a well
documented vampire

In 18th-century
czechoslovakia.

He had in his possession
a special chalice,

One that's been lost
to history.

Special how?

(lucus:)well, it's
believed the chalice

Was the key to
stanislav's

Supposed vampire
powers.

I want you to help
me find it.

I'm flattered,
but...

What if I told
you stanislav

Wasn't the first
owner?

What if, originally,

It belonged to vlad
tepes,

Otherwise known as
vlad the impaler?

Otherwise known
as dracula,

Whose chalice disappeared
soon after he died.

What are you
basing this on?

(lucas:)my investigations
into the final

Disappearance of count
stanislav.

300 years ago,
stanislav

Was chased from his
ancestral home.

In his haste
to escape,

He left the
chalice lid behind.

He's etched his own
symbol on the top,

But there's
another,

A much older one
on the inside.

You're right, but
it's worn off.

I can barely
make it out.

(lucas:)that's why
I took the liberty of

Making a rubbing
from it,

As part of my
research.

Do you recognize
it?

The order of the
dragon.

The family crest of
vlad the impaler.

Look out!

(man:)blackmer!

Hand over the
lid.

You all right?

Fine. You?

Fine.

But I wasn't the one
almost cut in half

By some knife
wielding maniac.

That attack had
a purpose.

He was after the
chalice lid.

I think word's
out on your relic

Really.

Who did you
tell?

Hardly anybody...

My publisher,

Her assistant...

Dozens by now.

You've got
competition.

There's blood.

What?

On your cheek.

Thanks.

(syd:)there it is with
enhanced magnification.

You're right,

This lid definitely
predates stanislav...

By about three
centuries.

From the style
and material,

I'd say it came from
15th-century romania.

As did vlad the
impaler.

But after what
happened tonight,

It hardly seems
fair of me

To ask you to
continue.

I face rival relic
hunters all the time.

It comes with the
territory.

So you'll help me
with my novel.

In a couple of weeks
after exams,

I could have some
time.

Unfortunately,

My publisher's only
given me three days for

"this little treasure
hunt",

As she calls it.

I had this trip
planned long before

I was made aware of
your many talents.

The plane leaves
in three hours.

It's not that
simple.

I have classes.

That's what teaching
assistants are for.

I have to pack.

I can buy you
anything you need.

This is all just
a little too fast.

Sydney, sometimes the
best things in life are.

Look me in the
eyes and tell me

You're not just a
little bit tempted.

(karen:)what do you
mean "she's gone"?

It's all in
the note:

"I've gone to the
outskirts of prague

With blackmer to
search

For stanislav's
chalice"

Whatever that is...

"and I'll be back
in three days."

And don't you
think that's weird?

She could be in
terrible danger.

Well, she does usually
give a bit more notice.

When's her next
lecture scheduled?

I meant, don't you
think it's weird

That she would
just drop

Everything without
telling us,

To take off with
mr tall, dark and...

Oh, yeah, undead?

You're not seriously
suggesting...

I'm not suggesting,
nig', I'm telling you.

Blackmer's up to
something.

Taking sydney to a
romantic, foreign getaway,

Separating her from her
friends and colleagues.

He's seducing sydney
exactly like

The vampires in his
books do it.

Oh, well, then let's
call interpol.

Don't you think you're
being a tad dramatic?

(karen:)am I?

You and sydney have
spent the past two months

Telling me about all
the strange things

You've experienced
on your adventures:

Spirits...

Mummies, magic
relics.

Yes, but...

But what if a vampire's
living on this campus

And now he's
after sydney?

(karen:)think
about it.

He only teaches
night classes.

He says he writes
during the day,

But no one's seen
him.

I'm telling you,
nig',

This guy's trouble.

Easy, boy.

[speaking czech]

Excuse me, sir.

He's never like
this.

[speaking czech]

Your rooms.

You certainly have

A way with animals.

Yes.

Didn't look like
much from the outside.

It's the least
I could do.

You can come in.

I don't think we
know each other

Well enough yet,
do we?

Apparently, we do.

It's the staff.

I asked them to get
you a selection.

It's all very relic
hunter-functional,

I assure you.

Something wrong?

Pretty luxurious
for a relic hunt.

Well, a woman like
you

Deserves the finer
things, sydney.

I'll see you
downstairs

In the lobby in
20 minutes.

We can start with
stanislav's castle.

(syd:)at this
hour?

Well, I don't want
to lose any time.

Besides, I tend to
work better at night.

Lucas,

You didn't happen
to have

An ulterior motive for
bringing me here, did you?

Cross my heart.

(lucas:)the castle was
abandoned 300 years ago,

After stanislav fled.

(syd:)it's showing
its age.

(syd:)careful.

This whole place
could come down

Around our ears
at any moment.

[mice screaming]

Must be the path
the villagers took

The night stanislav
fled.

(syd:)so... What is
it about vampires

That fascinates
you exactly?

(lucas:)understanding
them has told me

A great deal about
human nature.

(syd:)really? Like...

Like we often fear
what we desire most.

Why were the
villagers after

Stanislav that
night?

(lucas:)intolerant
persecution.

The pursuit was
led by

Rogue vampire hunter,
john thackery.

Vampire hunter?

Yes, it's through
thackery's journals

I was able to locate
the chalice lid.

Did stanislav ever
appear again?

Not since that
night.

Doesn't that
destroy

The whole immortal
vampire theory?

Well, he could have
been killed, yes.

You don't think
he was.

Are you familiar with
the mexican ant spider?

It's a fascinating
predator.

Through evolution,
it's actually been able

To mimic its prey
in their surroundings

So ingeniously that
it actually can live

Amongst them for
periods of time.

Vampires are like
that.

They survive by
fitting in,

Avoiding detection
often for centuries.

And then, like the
mexican ant spider,

Their victims seldom
know their true nature

Until it's too
late.

(nigel:)oh... God.

(karen:)vampire
legends?

I'm discovering
this vlad dracul

Was really a bit
of a terror.

Did you know he
impaled over

100,000 people in
six years?

Imagine.

I'm betting that's
where that whole,

Nasty staking business
came into vampire mythology,

A sort of karmic
death.

What on earth are
you doing?

I may not have an
oxford degree,

But I've got big
time instincts.

Right now, they say
blackmer's dangerous

And I intend to do whatever
it takes to prove it.

Prove what?

That he's a
vampire?

That's insane.

Fine. You don't want to
help me protect sydney?

I'll do it myself.

Karen...

I never said I
wouldn't help you.

Point of fact, you
never bothered to ask.

Fine...

I'll ask nicely.

Pretty please?

Now, that wasn't too
difficult, was it?

This master plan of
yours

Doesn't involve anything
illegal, does it?

(lucas:)thackery wrote
in his journal

That he cornered stanislav
in a secret crypt

Somewhere in this
castle's basement.

(syd:)I'm guessing
that's our crypt.

Well, at least they've been
keeping the riff raff out.

Here.

Move!

Thank you.

You're welcome.

(lucas:)what are
they made of?

Silver marked with
a cross.

The locals obviously
didn't want

Stanislav coming
back home.

Yeah. Talk about your
neighbourhood watch.

Give me a hand
here, lucas.

[struggling]

This is where they
cornered him,

But he disappeared
into thin air.

Yeah.

What are you
looking for?

Another way out.

(lucas:)well, this
is where all

The historical
records end.

First rule of relic
hunting: History lies.

Here.

(lucas:)what?

See how the lichen grows
thickest along this line?

That means there's
air coming

Through from the
other side.

A door.

Well, if there
is one,

That would explain
stanislav's

Disappearing
act.

It's a little over
300 years old

So it's probably just
a trigger mechanism,

Like the arrows.

You're really pretty
good at this.

Not bad for a
first day.

(syd:)looks like
the tunnel runs

Down into the
mountain.

[door rattling]

See, I told you.

Stick and wiggle:

Works every time.

Whoa, looks like
blackmer's

Watching a little
too much cryptkeeper.

Looks like the Halloween
aisle at wal-mart.

Still, that hardly makes
him the living dead.

Yeah? We'll see
about that.

What exactly are
we looking for?

I don't know.

Something creature
-of-the-nightish.

That's odd.

What?

(nigel:)green contact
lenses large enough

To cover the entire
eye.

And thicker than
normal, too.

Check this out.

Prescription
sunblock.

Spf 50.

"contains transparent
zinc compound".

No sun could
penetrate this.

(karen:)nigel,
oh my god.

What?

If blackmer's not
a vampire,

Then explain that.

Avant-garde
coffee table.

Open it.

Me?

What about you?

You're closer.

Why are we
whispering?

Because what if there's
something still in there?

(syd:)put your back
into it, lucas.

(lucas:)I am.

(syd:)harder.

There we go.

There we go.
Got it.

Supposed to be where
stanislav escaped.

You said you read
the vampire hunter's

Account of stanislav's
disappearance?

Yes.

Did it say what time
of day it took place?

(lucas:)just before
sunrise.

We need a map of
this area

At the time of
the escape.

Here. What are
we looking for?

(syd:)well, if
you were a vampire

With less than an
hour till daylight.

I'd be looking for
shelter fast.

In that case,
under an hour

In this rough terrain
in the darkness...

On foot and staying
out of sight.

(syd:)I'd say that
would put us around.

(lucas:)here, the
monastery.

Well, it's not far,
but I don't want to run

You into the ground
your first night.

(nigel:)according to
this, once the vampire

Takes his power from
the chalice,

He must renew the
ritual every 300 years.

(karen:)to do
what?

Recharge his vampire
batteries?

(nigel:)so it
seems.

(karen:)don't they
just bite you?

(nigel:)apparently
not all of them.

The chalice also needs to
be left on a traditional,

Mystical place that's
not specified here,

Where it absorbs all
of its

Eternal life-bestowing
powers.

Like heating a pan
on a stove.

(nigel:)yeah.

If it's removed too
long from the source,

Both the chalice
and the vampire

Slowly lose their
power.

So whatever vampire
uses this chalice

Has to use it again
every 300 years?

That would follow.

When did stanislav
disappear with the chalice?

Exactly 300 years
tomorrow night.

We have to get
to syd.

Don't move.

(priest:)the count
came here

Seeking shelter
that night,

Just before dawn.

(syd:)they let
him in?

(priest:)to our
later shame.

(lucas:)why?

(priest:)by morning,
he was gone,

The chalice with
him.

He had stolen a
coffin

And then ensorcelled
an impressionable

Young monk to help
him.

How do you know the
boy wasn't willing?

I'll show you
how I know.

This is how the
boy was found,

Three days after
stanislav's dark power

Lured him from
these walls.

Like the life was
sucked out of him.

Three days?

From the degree of
mummification,

That should've
taken 300 years.

Exactly.

The impossibility of it
leaves only one conclusion.

Stanislav.

(priest:)our order is
careful to preserve

This dark bit of
our history

So that none in the
future will forget it.

Doesn't the church have rules
about believing in vampires?

(priest:)yes.

Where was the boy's
body recovered?

I don't know.
Not far.

(syd:)it may have
something to do

With the name on
this plaque,

Franz carl iii.

Could you find
out for me?

No, it's not possible
under any conditions.

No other records
exist.

(lucas:)thank
you, father.

Beware of that
one.

I fear he's not
what he seems.

Lucas, what are
you doing here?

I'm here to
help you.

I don't need your
help.

That is precisely
the problem.

(lucas:)poor
sydney.

You spend so much
energy taking control,

You've forgotten
what it's like

To give control
to someone else,

To feel completely
vulnerable.

That's not true.

Oh, sydney, I've
seen inside you,

All those secret
little places

You hide from
yourself.

You don't fear
complete abandon,

You desire it.

Even if I
wanted to,

I don't think
I could.

Then let me
help you.

I can, you know.

[growling]

[screaming]

[growling]

Get a grip.

(syd:)hello.

(karen:)sydney?
(syd:)karen.

We've been trying to get
a hold of you for hours.

We got problems.

What kind of
problems?

(karen:)vampire
problems.

Oh, karen,
please.

We were attacked
last night

In blackmer's
apartment by a man

Who was as much a vampire
as blackmer himself.

Attacked?

(karen:)yeah.

He was a
complete psycho.

He put a knife
to my neck.

Is everyone
all right?

Yeah, we're fine,

But we both could
have been killed.

Who was he?

He called himself
kantor.

Other than that, he was
most uncommunicative.

The knife pretty much told
us all we need to know.

I think you met
our competition.

What?

Rival relic hunter?

Before we left, someone
tried to steal

The chalice lid
from blackmer.

Then that must've been
what he was looking for.

Syd, he found your itinerary
in blackmer's desk.

He knows exactly
where you are.

Did you call
the police?

Well, funny thing
about that.

Seeing as karen
and I had just

Broken into blackmer's
apartment,

It didn't seem like
the wise thing to do.

(syd:)nigel, we're going
to talk when I get back.

Where's blackmer
now?

In his room with a "do
not disturb" sign on it.

You haven't seen
him all day?

(sidney:)no. Why?

We found a number of

Sun protection devices
in his apartment.

Put together, they
paint, well,

A pretty curious picture
of blackmer himself.

Blackmer's invented
a way he

And his fellow
bloodsuckers

Can survive
daylight;

By wearing protective
lenses,

Special clothing,

And industrial
strength sunblock.

There isn't a single
part of him exposed.

Syd, I know this
sounds crazy,

But are you sure
you're not in

Greater danger
from blackmer?

I have to go.

Sorry. I overslept.

Did you find
anything useful?

Yes, actually.

Good. Then we
better get going.

Right.

Did you happen
to leave

Your room at all
last night?

No.

I would have remembered
if I did. Why?

No reason.

Come on, we've got a
riverboat to catch.

(syd:)I got curious about
the name franz carl iii

On that plaque by
the boy's body,

So I did a little
digging

And found a riverboat
registration

From the right period.

Here it is.

Franz carl iii
was a river barge

That left ostrava
the same night

That stanislav fled
the monastery.

(lucas:)16
passengers and crew.

The log of arrival
accounts

For 15 dead
on board,

All except...

Stanislav.

Where was the
boat headed?

Romania.

It says "when
it arrived,

All souls aboard
were dead,

Dried-up husks,"

Just like the
young monk.

The official records

Called it "an
isolated plague".

Well, that was
no plague.

The average
human,

That boat was no more
than transportation,

But to stanislav...

It was a floating
supermarket?

Where in romania
was it headed?

Targoviste.

Targoviste.

(syd:)what's the
significance of targoviste?

Targoviste was
the ancestral

Home of vlad
the impaler.

The chalice...

Look out!

Stay where
you are.

I saw those weapons in
thackery's journal.

Never seen that
one before.

Come on.

[♪]

(lucas:)I'd like to
know who this guy is.

It's the same guy
that attacked

Us at the university.

What?

His name's
kantor.

He's our
competition.

But I didn't think he'd
be onto us so quickly.

Doesn't make sense.

What doesn't?

I don't think he's
after the chalice lid.

I think he's trying
to kill you.

(syd:)why?

Who are you?

(lucas:)for god's
sake, sydney,

I'm not a real
vampire.

So the hotel room,

The candles,

Whisking me off
my feet,

This was all
just an act?

I get into the role
while writing my books.

It helps me better
understand the characters.

In your books.

Yes. You've heard
of method acting.

Well, this is
method writing.

It sells.

You impersonate
the undead.

Yes, well, maybe that
is a little bizarre.

So you've never seen
this guy kantor before,

Never heard of
him?

No.

Maybe he's a
crazed fan.

Fan?

My vampire existence
gives his meaning.

It's the down side
of notoriety.

Well, I wouldn't
blame you

If you wanted to
stop now.

What? Now?

So close?

Sydney, outside
the museum,

I was trying to tell
you targoviste

Was the ruling seat
of vlad the impaler.

He kept a chalice,
a golden chalice

On a fountain outside
the village square.

The same village that
stanislav fled to.

Yes.

Legend has it

It was from this
very spot

That the chalice
drew its mystic power.

So you think targoviste
fountain could be it?

If it is, then
stanislav knew that.

Then he would
have to return

It there to
survive.

But this guy
kantor knows

We're after the
chalice.

He's already
found us once.

I can finish this
one alone.

No, I have to
be there.

You'd go after
the relic,

Even though you know
a man may be waiting

To kill you for
it?

Wouldn't you?

Of course, it
didn't make sense

The chalice would
be sitting in plain

Sight in this
day and age.

So what now?

Let's think about
this clearly.

People have been
building monuments

Over power zones
for centuries...

Stonehenge,

Chartres cathedral,

The sphinx.

What are you
saying?

(syd:)the one common
denominator is that,

Most often, they're
built

Above underground
springs.

(lucas:)if it's
down here,

How will we
find it?

I'm not sure.

Sydney, I think I
found something.

Well, look at
that.

You're getting pretty
good at this yourself.

It's the same
kind of trigger

Stone as stanislav's
castle.

Maybe the mechanism
hasn't been

Used in so long.

What's that?

(syd:)vampire
combination lock?

I think sliding
these tiles into

The right pattern
will open the door.

Oh, wait, remember
the arrows?

Could be a trap.

I don't know be
my guest.

Okay.

I've seen one of
these before once.

Solution was a glyph,
the god osiris.

That was in
cairo.

So when in
romania,

Do as vlad
would do.

[rumbling]

Stanislav's
chalice.

I never thought it
would be so beautiful.

I know, another
trap.

No.

Who lit the
candles?

Lucas, do me
a favour.

What?

Duck!

I've been hunting fang
jobs for 20 years.

(syd:)you need help,
buddy, seriously.

I've ambushed every
bloodsucker

Who's tried to draw
on the chalice's power.

I should've seen
it.

No real vampire

Could resist a
neck like that.

Where'd you learn
to do that?

Oh, I wrote it.

Shall we toast to
our success?

You first.

Still working
hard, I see.

Always.

I was just leaving.

Thought I'd come by
and tell you I donated

That chalice to your
university museum.

On behalf of the
university, thank you.

You're welcome.

I have a...

A confession?

In a manner of
speaking.

I did have an
ulterior motive in

Taking you on
that relic hunt.

(syd:)is that me?

You inspired me.

Did I?

Take care.

You, too.

Are you absolutely certain
he's not a vampire?

Oh, nigel.

And there's no romance
between you at all?

Not that it's any
of your business.

Tell the truth.

You were more
hot for him

When you thought
he was the

Prince of darkness,
right?

The whole bad
boy thing.

I was more attracted
to him

When I thought I
knew who he was.

I mean, this whole
playing vampire thing.

I don't think I ever got
to know the real man.

Maybe that's
not so bad.

(syd:)I guess I'm
just looking for a man

Who's not pretending
to be something

That he's not.

(karen:)yeah,
now who's

Living the
fantasy?
