Vampire Assassin (2005)

1. He was one of the most ruthless vampire hunters who ever lived.

2. Some say that his strength came from his love of killing

3. that made him as dangerous as the monsters he hunted.

4. His name is Slovak.

5. The turn of events that happened on his final hunt

6. changed the fate of every vampire hunter that followed...

7. forever.

8. 17, this is Blue Leader. Do you copy?

9. 17, this is Blue Leader. Do you copy?

10. 15, this is Blue Leader. Can you read me?

11. 15?

12. Damn it.

13. Something's gone wrong.

14. I've always been fascinated by the mind of a hunter.

15. You know, there's something to be said about a man

16. who would risk his life, his friends,

17. his very own soul in the pursuit of the hunt.

18. Where's my men, you bastard?

19. Not to worry.

20. You'll soon join them.

21. Your destiny will lead you to them.

22. Freeze! Police!

23. Vampires? Come on, son. You've got to give me more than that.

24. Blaming it on vampires?

25. I'm gonna put you on long-term administration leave.

26. Captain, don't.

27. Take a long vacation. Relax.

28. Get some therapy.

29. Maybe when you come back, things will have calmed down.

30. You know everything I put in that report is true.

31. Slovak is really a vampire.

32. And no matter what it takes, I'm gonna prove it.

33. I guess you want my badge, huh?

34. My name is Samantha Morris. I'm the editor of an Internet news magazine

35. exploring news most media shy away from.

36. Isn't it interesting that this house is the very same place

37. that old news reports have of vampire activity?

38. Here's my card.

39. Hey, Murph. Who's the guy in the pic?

40. Who is this ugly cat?

41. He's so ugly he could break daylight with his face.

42. You know what I'm saying, son?

43. Yeah, I know.

44. You know what I wanna ask you, don't you?

45. Let it go, son.

46. Let it go.

47. It might destroy you.

48. I know that look.

49. You gonna be hardheaded, ain't you?

50. I'm that transparent, huh?

51. I know you loved your father.

52. But I loved him too.

53. That's why I took you off the street

54. and raised you myself.

55. But damn it, you're just like your father...

56. a fighter.

57. And you won't listen to anyone.

58. Listen to me, son. Listen to me good.

59. If you gonna fight,

60. you gonna have to fight hard.

61. Fight with everything you have got.

62. All right.

63. Good evening, gentlemen. I'm so very pleased to meet you.

64. I do regret that our first encounter was under circumstances

65. so potentially volatile.

66. Things would not be that way

67. if you had accepted the most generous proposal

68. that my employer offered.

69. I'm afraid that my turning over to the likes of you 50%

70. is not generous,

71. it's insulting.

72. Actually, it is you

73. that should be appreciating the benefits of my generosity

74. by simply allowing you to live.

75. Now's the time for administration.

76. How pathetic.

77. The sign of a very weak leader...

78. one who must be conquered.

79. Listen.

80. You and everything you own,

81. even your soul belongs to me.

82. Officer Washington?

83. Officer Derek Washington of the L.A.P.D. Special Division?

84. May I talk to you for just a second?

85. So how did someone like you become a cop?

86. Well, that's another story altogether.

87. I lived in the streets for years.

88. And it wasn't until one of my father's friends saved me that really turned my life around.

89. But what about you? What's your story?

90. I'm sure it's a good one.

91. Well, my life is not all that exciting.

92. I came from a family that was firmly rooted in the establishment.

93. You know, business, politics, stuff like that.

94. I was always the rebel.

95. So after a stint in the peace corps

96. and lots of world travel,

97. I decided that I wanted

98. my life to be more than about,

99. well, consumption and status.

100. So, I felt like

101. I needed to give something back.

102. And I've been struggling with my online news

103. for about four years now.

104. Yeah.

105. Why are you looking at me like that?

106. I'm sorry. You just remind me of someone I cared for very deeply.

107. It has been brought to my attention

108. that in spite of the enlightenment and prosperity that I bring to you,

109. one of you seek a mere token

110. of unlimited prosperity in which you ride its potential.

111. Master, please forgive me.

112. I was arrogant. I was afraid.

113. Please forgive.

114. I never want to see you again in the eternal call to night.

115. If I do, next time I won't grant you such leniency.

116. Do you understand?

117. Yes, master.

118. Growth cannot be pure

119. with a cancer or a virus infecting it.

120. In order for the new to be pure,

121. the cancer must be purged, removed,

122. and destroyed.

123. Hey!

124. Here they come.

125. They check out.

126. Well, well, well,

127. if it isn't the legendary Officer Derek Washington.

128. I need your help in stopping Slovak.

129. Our service doesn't come cheap.

130. Mr. Washington, you're standing around some of the most highly trained hunters.

131. At least those that Slovak hasn't killed.

132. So, I suppose that makes us the only hope for mankind.

133. Let's get out of here, Derek. I smell something rotten.

134. Since it doesn't seem like it's money you're after, what is your price?

135. Price?

136. You don't understand what you're getting involved in here, do ya?

137. You don't understand it at all.

138. So we're gonna take care of you right now.

139. We underestimated him.

140. Let's not do it again!

141. So now what?

142. Well, it looks like I only have one choice.

143. You're not thinking of going it alone, are you?

144. Didn't you see what just happened?

145. Look, somebody has got to do something about this.

146. Gentlemen,

147. let's show Mr. Washington how to really have a good time...

148. how to party.

149. How dare you insult me in my home!

150. I try to be more hospitable than this.

151. Have a seat.

152. Have some?

153. No, thanks.

154. There was this girl.

155. She was... She was so beautiful.

156. I decided to kill her.

157. Decided to take her life.

158. I did so without pity, remorse

159. or trepidation.

160. That was my first taste

161. of what real power was.

162. The power of life and death.

163. Fate or destiny, Derek?

164. Make your choice. You decide.

165. Let me show you something.

166. Tell me what you see.

167. - Bad dental work. - Exactly.

168. My master tells me that

169. often a new vampire is

170. a mutated strain,

171. not acquiring all the powers of his master.

172. And wouldn't you know it, I'm one of them.

173. This specimen seems like he'd work quite swimmingly.

174. And I'm starving.

175. You know,

176. I remember the last time

177. someone insulted me like that.

178. It wasn't... pretty.

179. They found pieces of him from New York

180. to Atlanta.

181. Cops called me the East Coast Butcher.

182. I'm still kind of proud of that.

183. So that's pretty much my life story.

184. I've been haunted by these dreams for most of it.

185. And I need your help in finding out what it all means.

186. The longest journey begins with the first step.

187. The journey is long. The journey is hard.

188. The weak of mind will not make it.

189. The weak of heart will not make it.

190. Are you ready to take this journey?

191. Somehow I feel I was born ready.

192. Oh, no, no, no, no.

193. Do you know how to... die ready?

194. Fear is energy.

195. As children we fear the unknown.

196. It inspires us to learn more about the world in which we live.

197. - Take advantage of it. - I think I am.

198. Are you ready to be tested?

199. I don't think so!

200. This test requires commitment and dedication,

201. in which you have never seen the likes of

202. in your entire lifetime!

203. Are you afraid?

204. As you have learned, vampires are very real

205. and very deadly.

206. How you see life

207. and the world from this point on

208. will be very different.

209. Very good. I have heard

210. that you are a very formidable fighter

211. and possess a few skills.

212. I do okay.

213. Ah, let's see.

214. Good. Good, good.

215. Impressive, in a man's world.

216. Now, let's try something else.

217. I see we have a lot of work to do.

218. Huh? Come.

219. This room is filled with knowledge

220. of war and combat.

221. Every fighting style,

222. art, tactics,

223. weapons, is contained

224. in these books that you see in front of you.

225. Remember.

226. A weapon is nothing but an extension

227. of your warrior spirit.

228. Choose wisely.

229. And may your choice be a suitable one.

230. Help me. Help me, please.

231. Help me. Help me, please.

232. Help me. Help me, please.

233. Help me. Help me, please.

234. - Help me, please. - Hey, what's wrong?

235. These men...

236. - These bad men did things to me. - What men?

237. Please, mister, take me away from this bad place.

238. - Please take me away. - Don't worry.

239. - Help me, please. - Hey. Hey! Hey!

240. Nice work. I didn't think you had it in you.

241. Clean it up. Be upstairs in an hour.

242. Hey, hey, what's troubling you, Derek?

243. Nothing.

244. I've seen that face a million times.

245. Mourning your friends, your love,

246. your former life.

247. Feeling guilty. I know.

248. But only time and understanding will put those things in perspective.

249. Okay. I'm going out.

250. Who knows. Maybe I'll come back.

251. Be careful.

252. Do what you must.

253. Slovak, I'm sure, is aware of your training.

254. Do not let Slovak tempt you into a confrontation.

255. You are not quite ready to face him.

256. - Now, do you understand? - I understand.

257. - Enjoy yourself. - All right.

258. I'm so glad you're finding out more about me to appreciate, Derek.

259. Are you sure? You came here tonight for some reason.

260. - We both know why I'm here, Slovak. - Are you sure what it is?

261. To stop you.

262. Stop me?

263. Perhaps you don't recall, but our last few encounters

264. were favored to me.

265. Perhaps you have. Maybe you are.

266. Because I want it to be.

267. That doesn't make any sense.

268. If I told you everything now,

269. that would spoil all the fun that we would have, wouldn't it?

270. Why would you want me to learn how to kill you?

271. I may have underestimated you.

272. Confused, Derek?

273. Not sure where to turn, who to trust,

274. what it all means?

275. I was right about you. You have definitely improved.

276. You're almost ready.

277. Know this. With the fury of my soul, I wanna kill you right now.

278. But I need you to live a little bit longer.

279. But know for certain, your death will come

280. and it will come by my hands.

281. Don't move, scumbag.

282. I'm sorry, sir. We got here as soon as we could, as soon as the alarm went off.

283. Thank God. I was in fear for my life.

284. Captain Hall, how are you? How can I be of service to you?

285. Kind of out of place, aren't you?

286. Thanks for the compliment.

287. No, you're right in place. You're gonna be the jailhouse special.

288. We really are sorry for bringing you down here.

289. But we have a situation.

290. And we think it's best that we handle it this way.

291. I understand. I've always been obliged to help the police in any way I can.

292. Yes. Good.

293. Come on, Washington. Let's go.

294. Must be nice to have, uh, people in high places.

295. Put in a compliment for me.

296. Slovak, you bastard! Somebody's gotta stop him!

297. All right, that's enough. Pick him up.

298. Pitiful.

299. We're gonna get to the bottom of this right now.

300. Gustoff Augustan Slovak

301. is really a vampire.

302. A vampire?

303. Okay.

304. Just for the sake of argument,

305. let's assume there is existence of vampires.

306. What proof do you have to show this?

307. Man, you're a real nut job.

308. Gentlemen, gentlemen, I'm a very busy man.

309. I think we've seen enough. Get him out of here.

310. Wait.

311. I think he owes Mr. Slovak an apology.

312. Yes.

313. Apologize, Derek.

314. Here's my apology.

315. Oh, my God! What in the hell...

316. Section 5, I need more people here, stat!

317. - What the hell is going on? - I don't know. Just shoot!

318. This is Captain Hall. I have men down. I need assistance!

319. This is Captain Hall. I repeat. I need assistance.

320. Dude, we bustin' out?

321. No, I'm breaking in.

322. Bustin' in?

323. Here. Help me. Get me a stick.

324. A stick? Get my hands.

325. Look, man, whatever gods you got, you'd better pray to them right now.

326. Dang, you sure know how to party.

327. Derek?

328. There's a light over here. Let's go.

329. Derek!

330. Go ahead. I'll catch up with you.

331. - Dad? - Come to me, my son.

332. - Dad? - Come to me.

333. - Dad? - Come to me, son.

334. Come to me.

335. Pretty clever trick you pulled on me back there.

336. But I have some tricks of my own.

337. That was my very best.

338. Hope you like it.

339. Oh, man, not you.

340. Are you all right?

341. Aw, damn!

342. Come on, dude. I'm gonna get you out of here.

343. You're gonna be all right, dude.

344. You'll be all right.

345. I'm probably gonna need both my hands for this one.

346. Come on. Let's get out of here.

347. Come on. Get up, man. Let's get out of here.

348. - How bad is he? - Not good.

349. - Is he gonna make it? - He should.

350. He has the spirit of a fighter.

351. His chances are better than most.

352. He's in the hands of the gods now.

353. God, please give him the strength to make it.

354. Most people turn within the first 24 to 48 hours.

355. Well, I figure he doesn't have too much time left.

356. You can't do that!

357. Hey, I just wanna be ready when he turns.

358. I know he's your friend and all.

359. Now is the time. Do it.

360. Oh, my God.

361. He is all right. He will be fine.

362. The gods helped him.

363. You okay, Derek?

364. I appreciate you being there for me.

365. If there's one thing I learned,

366. I can't do this by myself.

367. I need your help.

368. Your problem is impatience.

369. As one who has seen many lifetimes,

370. I've discovered the value of allowing time to unfold.

371. Mr. Slovak, I hope I'm not too late.

372. No, of course not. I was just talking about you.

373. The fighting grows near.

374. Slovak is such a powerful vampire.

375. We need to muster up as much advantage as we can.

376. I have weapons. I have weapons. I have weapons.

377. I have one that is special.

378. It has protected me all these years.

379. I want you to have it.

380. Thank you, master.

381. And I hope it will protect you

382. like it has done me.

383. Please, take the weapons.

384. I'll prove myself to be worthy.

385. I'm afraid we must strike now.

386. I have a message for your master.

387. Let's see you try and deliver it.

388. Master, the parlor was attacked.

389. It was Washington.

390. No one was left alive.

391. Good.

392. It's finally begun.

393. Well, I'm glad to see you guys could make it.

394. For a while there, I thought you were gonna miss out on all the fun.

395. Master, he should know by now.

396. He's probably on his way.

397. Shall I get ready for him?

398. Haven't you learned anything, my overly eager servant?

399. Be patient. He's on his way now because I designed it.

400. He will be destroyed tonight because I designed it.

401. And you are here because I designed it. Is that clear?

402. Very, master. Very.

403. Tonight, Derek Washington,

404. you will have all your questions answered,

405. and then you will die.

406. Derek!

407. Can't you see what Slovak wants?

408. He wants us to kill each other so he can come in here and pick up all the pieces.

409. Hey, boss, you can't listen to him.

410. He's already got the bite, so he could be working for Slovak now.

411. Check him. See how far he's gone.

412. He's at 70%.

413. That's far enough.

414. He's right, Derek. We can't take that chance.

415. Look, listen to me.

416. We're all on the same side. Don't do this.

417. We all fight our own war.

418. I'm sure you can understand. This won't be pretty.

419. Stupid arrogant humans or power-hungry vampires.

420. - I don't know which one I hate most. - This is gonna be messy.

421. You're out of your league, Washington.

422. No, I think you're out of yours.

423. Kill him!

424. Everyone of you will pay!

425. Make red my blade!

426. Where are you?

427. Oh, where are you? Come and get me!

428. Where are you, vampires?

429. You hold fast the ways that fail you.

430. You and your kind have yet to see the light.

431. It is you who is blinded

432. by arrogance and quest for power!

433. Long ago, I gave you a chance, an opportunity to walk that road with me.

434. You refused. Don't expect the same this time.

435. As long as there are monsters like you,

436. there are men who are willing to rise to the occasion

437. to challenge you for the opportunity to stop you!

438. And I destroyed them all. Some are competitive and some not.

439. But your new property... he's totally outclassed.

440. I would not count him out yet!

441. Same old Kao.

442. Always rooting for the underdog.

443. I have already planted a seed

444. deep within inside of him

445. that will destroy you.

446. Would you like to see how they have rooted?

447. The final stand of a dead man.

448. And you will.

449. Yes, you will die.

450. No, Slovak!

451. Master Kao.

452. - It is too... - Master?

453. - You must... You have to do it. - Come on.

454. Have you not learned anything?

455. It is not men...

456. who...

457. - Master? - It's killing me.

458. No, master.

459. It is not the man who lives without fear that is brave.

460. It is the one who has fear

461. and the courage to act in spite of it.

462. You...

463. You cannot let me live.

464. I will be a vampire... a dead man walking.

465. You... You must...

466. No!

467. The transformation...

468. The transformation is killing me!

469. Do something!

470. You must do it.

471. - You must do it. - I know.

472. Please. Please.

473. Come on, Derek!

474. Derek!

475. Do it.

476. The transformation... Please.

477. Please, Derek.

478. Slovak!

479. My entire life had been lacking in clear direction and purpose.

480. And it was through your teachings that I learned who I am

481. and what I'm supposed to do.

482. You have my word that no matter what it takes,

483. I will stop Slovak and put an end to his reign of terror.

484. I swear it!

485. Thank you for everything that you've given me.

486. Farewell, my friend.

487. Wait.

488. You hear that?

489. What?

490. Listen.

491. Who's your daddy?

492. Washington.

493. Do you have a plan? Fucking cockroach. Come on.

494. I got something for you.

495. Come on.

496. I'm gonna get you this time.

497. I knew I got you.

498. I know you're there. Come on.

499. Come out, pigeon.

500. Come out, pigeon. Come out.

501. So long, pigeon.

502. I see you've finally reached your potential, Derek.

503. Good. Destiny and fate are close at hand.

504. It'll all work out in the end, won't it, Derek?

505. Fortunately for you.

506. It will never work out for those you care about.

507. You let her go, Slovak. This is between me and you.

508. As you wish.

509. And you're wrong in your assessment.

510. This is about more than you and me.

511. What do you mean?

512. Have you ever played chess, Derek?

513. The game of chess involves two very powerful strategic players.

514. They share the same battlefield, employ many agents.

515. But none of them are as important as the pawn.

516. You see, the pawn is the most important tool of any strategist.

517. This is a game which you have yet to comprehend, Derek.

518. But you will.

519. You see, you are a pawn.

520. And even more difficult, you're a pawn that serves two masters.

521. Now you're catching on.

522. Two masters?

523. I am one.

524. Who taught you the skills to conquer darkness, face your fears?

525. - Master Kao. - Yes.

526. But do you know who taught him?

527. Oh, no. You taught him.

528. Ask yourself, Derek,

529. wouldn't my being his teacher mean that I know all that you know?

530. How could you possibly defeat me?

531. The truth is you can't.

532. No!

533. Why would a teacher send you ill-prepared

534. to go into battle

535. unless...

536. unless he expected you to fail.

537. Fate or destiny, Derek?

538. Choose carefully.

539. Many lives depend on it.

540. Listen to me, Slovak.

541. You seem hell-bent on playing games with my life.

542. But I promise you the next time you see me,

543. that'll be the last game we'll play.

544. Now it's time for reckoning.

545. Oh, no.

546. Help me.

547. Don't worry. I'm gonna get you out of here.

548. I should have let you die in pain.

549. Saving you was almost a mistake.

550. But I'm over that now.

551. I finally know where I belong.

552. Well, well, well, I'd be worried if I were you, Derek.

553. It seems like you have a lot to discuss.

554. It's only a suggestion.

555. Why don't you communicate, express yourselves,

556. sort out these things while I take care of my affairs.

557. You call yourself a hunter? Prepare to die.

558. When Master Kao died, did he squeal like this?

559. But, master, I thought you...

560. You thought what?

561. That I'd be foolish enough to share my empire with you?

562. Did you not spend all of your life trying to destroy me?

563. Now you want to share my empire.

564. No, no, no, I don't think so.

565. I wasn't strong enough.

566. You... You have... You have to be.

567. Derek, there's nobody left but you and me, just how I planned it.

568. Unite with me. Stand by my side.

569. This war will never be over.

570. So be it.

571. Now the hunter becomes the prey.

572. It's an empty feeling, isn't it?

573. Shallow. Devoid.

574. Perhaps now you understand how I feel.

575. Now you know that fate and destiny are but two sides of a worthless coin

576. that should be given to a beggar on skid row.

577. As you lay there trembling with pain,

578. you're hoping for a miracle.

579. I am that miracle.

580. Embrace it. You'll see it in me.

581. You ask for it or you die.

582. Say it.

583. There. This is but a token of the gifts I will bestow upon you.

584. You did what I was afraid to do.

585. Look at that.

586. The sun.

587. I know my time is short.

588. I wanna die like...

589. Derek, is that you?

590. I'd like to be able to say yes,

591. but I'm not sure I'm the same man anymore.

592. - Derek, are you... - Stop.

593. Please, don't come any closer.

594. I can't let you see me like this.

595. You've got to let people know

596. that the threat of vampires is very real.

597. I'll do what I can from my side.

598. Derek, I'll miss you.

599. The threat of Slovak is no more.

600. His death has spawned a new life,

601. and although it's not the kind of life one would hope and wish for,

602. I have found the answers to the questions that have haunted me for years.

603. Now I must learn to make peace with the existence that I am forced to live out.

604. Oh, who the devil is that?

605. Hello.

606. Hey, it's me.

607. Good to hear from you, son. You know, I've been a little bit worried.

608. - You know me. - I know ya.

609. I've known you a long time, son,

610. and I know everything about you.

611. Well, I was just calling to tell you that I'm going away.

612. And I'll be gone for a very long time.

613. Well, go ahead on and do what you gotta do, son.

614. And remember and remember it well.

615. Don't forget what I've told you.

616. And I don't know if I'm coming back.

617. I just wanted to say thank you for everything.

618. - You're welcome, son. - Good-bye.

619. I have become what I hate and fear most... a vampire.

620. I am no longer fully a man,

621. and yet I am not wholly a monster.

622. I am what every creature of the night should fear.

623. I am more than just a vampire hunter.

624. I am the first vampire assassin.
