Queen of the Damned

en
00:01:29 There comes a time
00:01:32 ...when the idea of eternit becomes
00:01:37 Living and feeding in the shadows
00:01:41 ...rots into a solitar,
00:01:46 Immortalit seems like a good idea...
00:01:49 ...until ou realize
00:01:53 So I slept, hoping the sounds
00:01:58 ...and a sort of death might happen.
00:02:00 But as I la there, the world didn't
00:02:05 ...but something different.
00:02:09 Better....
00:02:43 It became worthwhile to rise again
00:02:48 Night and da, the were never alone.
00:02:52 I would become one of them.
00:03:24 Whether it was the meal or
00:03:28 But suddenl
00:03:32 M senses so high...
00:03:34 ...the led me straight to the

00:09:53 -Doesn't sound too bad.
00:09:57 -l'll say.
00:10:12 So this is Lestat's house?
00:10:15 lt is this week. We move around a lot.

00:13:01 Jesse.
00:13:04 A voice...
00:13:07 ...calling to me...
00:13:09 ...in m dreams.
00:13:11 The same dream I've had
00:13:15 I have a famil of m own.
00:13:19 Not a strange dream, reall.
00:13:21 One ever orphan has.
00:13:52 l'm sorry, but you must go.
00:13:54 Why can't l stay with you?
00:13:58 l don't want you to go. But you must.
00:14:02 Aunt, you're bleeding.
00:14:11 You must be with your own.
00:14:14 -I knew things were not normal.
00:14:19 I onl knew I was part of them,
00:14:23 Was I bad?
00:14:24 Had I done something wrong?
00:14:27 l'll always be watching over you.
00:14:29 l want to stay with you forever.
00:14:32 You can't.
00:15:10 I'm Serena Altschul, MTV News.
00:15:13 Vampire turned rocker Lestat
00:15:18 Although from New Orleans...
00:15:20 ...he claims to be an 18th-centur
00:15:24 ...who has been asleep
00:15:27 Here's a look at the new video
00:16:41 Like everone, I assumed
00:16:44 A rock star with a gimmick. Then one
00:16:50 ''Take a walk down the aisle
00:16:53 Give your life to my charms
00:16:57 That rang a bell.
00:16:58 l tracked down old leases in London.
00:17:01 lt turns out in the late 1 600s
00:17:06 ...called the Admiral's Arms.
00:17:08 lt had a reputation for dealing
00:17:11 ...and reports of people vanishing.
00:17:14 Here's where you could find
00:17:19 That part of London
00:17:23 ...meat-packing plants and
00:17:28 l think that it's a vampire coven.
00:17:32 And Lestat is leading us to it.
00:17:37 -Who took this picture?
00:17:40 You're still an apprentice.
00:17:44 The Talamasca has a code.
00:17:46 l know. ''Observe the dark realm,
00:17:49 Well, it's held good for 1 2 centuries.
00:17:53 We record and observe,
00:17:57 l had to see it for myself.
00:18:02 ls David aware of this?
00:18:04 Jesse?
00:18:08 Hello, David.
00:18:10 -l was explaining--
00:18:17 This is a real coven.
00:18:20 All the more reason
00:18:25 Listen, Jesse...
00:18:30 ...we know about Lestat.
00:18:33 What he's doing is unprecedented.
00:18:37 So why is he doing it?
00:18:39 Aren't you curious?
00:18:44 Let me show you something.
00:18:49 What do you see?
00:18:54 Mid-1 500s. Florence.
00:18:58 This one?
00:19:03 -This man is in both.
00:19:08 All the different paint samples...
00:19:11 ...all authentic.
00:19:13 Each painted at the time
00:19:24 His name is Marius.
00:19:27 l've been tracing him for years.
00:19:30 My little obsession.
00:19:32 The closest we've come
00:19:36 Marius himself dates back to 400 B.C.
00:19:43 So he's older than Lestat.
00:19:45 He made Lestat.
00:19:48 How do you know that?
00:19:50 Because l have Lestat's journal.
00:19:56 l want to see it.
00:20:00 Promise me you'll never
00:20:34 It was the winter of 1788.
00:20:38 And I was brought to a Mediterranean
00:20:44 If a man is what ou'd call him.
00:21:38 Lestat, welcome.
00:21:42 Who are you?
00:21:44 Do l know you?
00:21:48 l am unknowable by nature,
00:21:52 l'm the lord of a great manor.
00:21:57 l doubt they'll find you,
00:22:01 You're a long way from home.
00:22:32 You're weak...
00:22:34 ...near passing.
00:22:37 l can barely hear your heartbeat.
00:22:41 The future hastens.
00:22:46 You will help me understand
00:22:50 That's why l chose you.
00:22:52 Chose me for what?
00:23:04 Drink...
00:23:06 ...and live.
00:23:08 You've been brave enough
00:23:14 Drink...
00:23:18 ...and learn.
00:23:22 Good, is it not?
00:23:29 No more. No more, Lestat.
00:23:33 No more!
00:24:09 Don't be afraid.
00:24:11 lt's only your body that dies.
00:24:29 More.
00:24:34 I impressed m maker
00:24:37 He set out to educate me
00:24:40 Taught me all about the world,
00:24:45 ...and about mself.
00:24:53 That's enough, my son.
00:24:58 When you feed, hold back
00:25:02 Never take the last drop, or it will
00:25:12 Appreciate your prey.
00:25:19 Their blood that we take into us
00:25:24 ...their life, their knowledge,
00:25:31 M senses run amuck,
00:25:36 And as for m new powers, I was beside
00:25:44 We've stayed long enough.
00:25:45 But we've spoken to no one.
00:25:48 A vampire's life
00:25:51 Discretion?
00:25:53 Why must we hide, Marius?
00:25:55 We are the powerful,
00:25:59 We should walk fearless
00:26:13 That cannot be.
00:26:16 We're vulnerable during the day.
00:26:19 Mortals must never know about us,
00:26:24 So l could never know her?
00:26:26 Not unless you wanted to kill her.
00:26:36 So l can never be known?
00:26:40 You must be dead to the world.
00:26:44 Come on, time to leave.
00:27:48 Sophia, run! Run!
00:27:50 Go! Go--
00:27:54 Lestat...
00:27:55 ...stop her!
00:27:58 You must!
00:28:37 We must remain in the shadows.
00:28:42 You still have a few
00:28:47 They'll serve you no good, my friend.
00:29:03 Forgive me.
00:29:12 The faces of m victims haunted me,
00:29:18 For nights and das I plaed...
00:29:20 ...furious that I would never partake
00:29:26 I was meant for more than this.
00:30:08 Marius?
00:31:32 Would you like me to play for you?
00:34:02 What have you done, Lestat?
00:34:14 -More!
00:34:18 -Let me go.
00:34:20 You've had the purest blood,
00:34:24 -Far too much for one as young as you.
00:34:30 Who is she?
00:34:36 She's your mother.
00:34:39 She's my mother.
00:34:41 Akasha, the queen of all
00:34:46 And he's her king.
00:34:48 Akasha and Enkil nearly drank this
00:34:54 They drank until Enkil
00:34:58 Without her mate beside her, she also
00:35:03 She respects nothing except the taste
00:35:09 No. Release me!
00:35:17 She made you quite powerful.
00:35:19 You'll not stop me!
00:35:23 Can l hear her blood in your voice?
00:35:26 ln all the years of my care,
00:35:30 Until tonight. And she chose me.
00:35:35 l chose you.
00:35:40 Where are you going?! Marius!
00:36:41 Man times since, I have called
00:36:48 Just the endless procession
00:36:53 ...ears.
00:36:55 M teacher left me
00:36:59 That in the end, we are alone.
00:37:02 And there is nothing but the cold,
00:37:33 David thought thejournal
00:37:37 But it onl made me want
00:37:41 I had to go back
00:37:44 I had no choice.
00:38:22 This is a fantastic place. I love it.
00:38:26 You sure l can't get you a drink?
00:38:30 Soon.
00:39:34 Hi.
00:39:36 -Hi.
00:39:38 All the time.
00:39:44 l don't see any marks.
00:39:47 You haven't seen the rest of my body.
00:39:50 ls that an invitation?
00:39:53 Sorry, l'm taken.
00:39:55 And...
00:39:58 ...where is your host?
00:40:00 He's here somewhere.
00:40:05 This host, what's his name?
00:40:13 Marius.
00:40:15 Sorry, don't know the guy.
00:40:18 -Of course not. He's an ancient.
00:40:23 They all turned to dust.
00:40:26 So unless you've got him in a bottle
00:40:29 You're brave to joke.
00:40:32 -And why is that?
00:40:40 Excuse me.
00:40:56 Going somewhere?
00:41:00 Now this will only hurt a little bit.
00:41:03 ln fact, you might even enjoy it.
00:41:07 Don't do this.
00:41:29 Boo.
00:41:46 That was quite a performance.
00:41:50 You should be more careful.
00:41:54 -Thanks.
00:41:57 You saved me.
00:42:00 How presumptuous.
00:42:03 So you know Marius?
00:42:08 l know a lot of things.
00:42:10 Not how to stay alive, apparently.
00:42:13 l guess we have that in common.
00:42:16 Although l'm a little ahead
00:42:19 Well, l can fix that.
00:42:22 Your song ''Redeemer'' is about
00:42:28 Yeah.
00:42:30 ls it?
00:42:34 What else do you think you know?
00:42:37 l....
00:42:39 You're shaking.
00:42:42 Cold.
00:42:44 Still cold?
00:42:47 Go on. Tell me more about me.
00:42:51 You want....
00:42:53 What do l want?
00:42:56 -You yearn.
00:43:03 For what do l yearn?
00:43:06 To walk with the living.
00:43:10 Out of the cold,
00:43:18 Well...
00:43:21 ...that makes you
00:43:25 Talamasca.
00:43:28 l knew l left that journal somewhere.
00:43:34 -Was it a good read?
00:43:38 Did it, now?
00:43:42 Don't worry, Jesse.
00:43:44 Your kind never satisfies my thirst.
00:43:49 Lestat, l know something
00:43:55 What?
00:43:57 You still have the violin, don't you?
00:44:00 No, l understand.
00:44:03 After all, it's only human.
00:45:02 Clever librarian.
00:45:14 David, listen, l'm going
00:45:18 I met him, David. I talked to Lestat.
00:45:22 What? Jesse?
00:45:24 Listen to me very carefully now.
00:45:29 You are no longer seeing
00:45:32 Lestat told the world that vampires
00:45:36 The'll be at the concert to kill him.
00:45:41 -I'm worried about ou.
00:45:46 l'll check in and....
00:45:49 l'm sorry. l have to go.
00:45:51 No, Jesse--
00:46:09 The cit of Lost Angels alread
00:46:13 M presence here barel
00:46:17 We had three das till the concert.
00:46:19 I could feel something was coming.
00:46:22 Ijust couldn't figure out what.
00:46:58 Marius.
00:47:12 Lestat.
00:47:15 lt is good to see you, Lestat.
00:47:19 And you.
00:47:20 Still wearing the old fashions, l see.
00:47:26 Old habits die hard.
00:47:28 How did you manage to slip
00:47:34 l slept.
00:47:37 Don't think you missed much.
00:47:40 -Elvis.
00:47:46 You're bigger than he is now.
00:47:49 So....
00:47:50 After all this time...
00:47:53 ...what's the occasion?
00:47:55 You've just become very hard to avoid
00:48:02 -What are you trying to prove, Lestat?
00:48:05 lt's a little too late to come over
00:48:10 Two hundred years
00:48:15 You almost cost me everything.
00:48:21 Now you've done it again.
00:48:23 This isn't the time to settle
00:48:28 Vampires don't settle old scores.
00:48:34 We harbor them.
00:48:40 How did you find me?
00:48:43 l made you.
00:48:44 l've always known where you are.
00:48:47 Besides...
00:48:49 ...l just had to look for the most
00:48:55 Come. Let me show you what it means
00:00:08 lmpressive.
00:00:10 Reminds me of old mad druids
00:00:15 A return to the primitive.
00:00:17 Out there, my fans...
00:00:21 ...they worship me.
00:00:23 Millions of arms reach out to embrace,
00:00:28 lt's what you always wanted.
00:00:30 With all my black little heart.
00:00:34 Did you think of anyone but yourself?
00:00:38 l only have myself.
00:00:42 lt may be time to get ready
00:00:45 -What's that supposed to mean?
00:00:53 Can't you hear it?
00:00:55 Or is the applause all you
00:01:18 Akasha.
00:01:20 Arisen.
00:01:22 She has taken the king's blood.
00:01:25 Absorbed his power.
00:01:28 Good. Let her come.
00:01:31 Cancel the concert.
00:01:34 Never.
00:01:36 You're no match for her, Lestat.
00:01:40 We were once mortals too.
00:01:44 lt is our heritage we protect.
00:01:47 Such reverence for mortals.
00:01:50 Then you should have left me as one.
00:02:54 Scent is fading.
00:02:59 You like him, do you?
00:03:02 He reminds me of someone.
00:03:04 All he's going to remind you of soon
00:03:09 We're going to dismember him.
00:03:13 Really?
00:03:15 ls that what you're going to do?
00:06:17 Old gods on new streets.
00:06:21 Not onl had the concert sold out
00:06:25 ...it seemed all the undead
00:06:28 There would be angr vampires
00:06:31 ...frightened of the light I was
00:06:35 Do ou have anthing to sa
00:06:39 Yes, as a matter of fact, I do.
00:06:44 Come out, come out, wherever ou are.
00:06:48 The wanted me dead.
00:06:50 Let them tr.
00:06:52 Bring it on.
00:06:54 Better dead than alone.
00:07:13 Hey, honey. Want tickets for tomorrow?
00:07:15 -Going to the show?
00:07:17 -Come on, l got them for $200.

00:08:10 Really?
00:08:12 -And you?
00:08:15 A London Goth. l see.
00:08:18 lt's funny, l would have pegged you
00:08:24 Maybe in another life.
00:08:26 l'm an Episcopalian.
00:08:28 And l'm a frigging Buddhist.
00:08:32 Roger, would you take our little
00:08:36 Just the one tonight? Sure.
00:08:39 -Sweetheart, come on.
00:08:43 -Come on.
00:08:45 -lt's a good thing.
00:08:50 Why are you following me?
00:08:53 What do you want?
00:09:08 So you come all this way
00:09:12 Out of the goodness of your heart?
00:09:18 l want you to show me what it's like.
00:09:21 What what is like, exactly?
00:09:24 To be like you.
00:09:29 l don't have time for this.
00:09:32 -All a vampire has is time.
00:09:38 Right.
00:09:39 The covens are coming for you.
00:09:42 How are you going to spend your last
00:09:47 Why not?
00:09:49 Why not share it with me?
00:09:55 All right.
00:10:00 This may be painful for a mortal.
00:10:03 You're still attached to your skin.
00:10:07 l don't care.
00:10:12 Do you trust me?
00:10:17 Yes.
00:10:28 Then close your eyes.
00:11:48 Marius was right.
00:11:50 But l never understood
00:11:54 What do you mean?
00:11:56 You're beautiful to me
00:11:59 Your frailty...
00:12:02 ...your short years...
00:12:06 ...your heart...
00:12:08 ...even as you think it's breaking.
00:12:15 All that...
00:12:19 ...seems suddenly more precious
00:12:26 l'm not as precious as you think.
00:12:39 Do it.
00:12:44 Please.
00:12:52 Let me be with you.
00:12:56 Let me know everything.
00:13:07 You want to know everything?

00:14:46 Are you ready?
00:14:49 Now do you want it, huh?

00:14:57 Of course you don't.

00:24:22 Akasha?!
00:24:25 Why so surprised, my love?
00:24:28 You called, l have come.
00:24:31 My love?
00:24:33 Never fear me, Lestat.
00:24:36 All your wishes have come true.
00:24:39 My wishes?
00:24:43 For a companion to share eternity.
00:24:49 You're bold, like your music.
00:24:55 You live your life in the open,
00:25:01 ...when l had a king.
00:25:03 Had a king?
00:25:05 He's no more.
00:25:07 Now you are my consort.
00:25:12 That's why l kept you safe.
00:25:15 Alive.
00:25:17 You?
00:25:21 You thought it was all you?
00:25:27 The ego of a king as well.
00:25:30 Yes.
00:25:33 l know you, Lestat.
00:25:36 l know that you crave to have
00:25:42 And l have come to give it to you.
00:25:47 Where are we?
00:25:50 We are home.
00:25:53 We live everwhere
00:25:58 The world is our garden.
00:28:27 All these ears I'd hoped
00:28:33 For the first time in m life,
00:28:39 Strange that this journe
00:28:43 This place that's haunted m dreams.
00:28:52 Aunt, ou're bleeding.
00:28:55 You must be with our own.
00:29:00 I'll alwas be watching over ou.
00:29:03 I want to sta with ou forever.
00:29:06 Forever is a very long time.
00:29:12 Aunt Maharet.
00:29:24 You haven't aged,
00:29:30 l was once a mortal too.
00:29:33 l bore a child before Akasha took me.
00:29:37 ...and her children,
00:29:42 This is our family.
00:29:44 My way of coping with eternity.
00:29:49 You are what keeps me connected
00:29:54 When your parents died, l brought
00:30:04 Now is not the time.
00:30:08 You were seeking answers
00:30:12 The family is who you are.
00:31:47 Drinking my blood allows you
00:31:51 And soon the sun will no longer
00:31:57 This is but a taste
00:32:03 My king...
00:32:06 ...behold our kingdom.
00:32:09 A kingdom of corpses?
00:32:14 -Why?
00:32:18 This is why you have risen?
00:32:20 They believed in nothing.
00:32:23 Now they are nothing.
00:32:32 But you and l,
00:32:36 We will give the world something
00:32:42 Now come, my love.
00:32:44 We have a score to settle.
00:32:58 Since my mortal death,
00:33:02 ...l have guided and cared
00:33:07 ...generations beyond memory.
00:33:12 This is why we must fight Akasha.
00:33:17 -For the sake of your great family.
00:33:22 The only way to prevent this
00:33:26 But how?
00:33:28 When she gives blood,
00:33:31 Whoever takes the last of her blood
00:33:35 What about Lestat?
00:33:37 Lestat has joined with Akasha.
00:34:05 My children.
00:34:09 lt warms my blood
00:34:13 ...plotting against me.
00:34:15 -Akasha.
00:34:18 -You will address my king first.
00:34:25 Lestat, step aside.
00:34:28 Never.
00:34:29 The world has changed
00:34:32 Then we shall change it back.
00:34:35 Humans are animals...
00:34:38 ...brute creatures.
00:34:40 -Their destruction can only make sense.
00:34:45 ln silence! ln shadows and shame!
00:34:50 For respect of mortals?
00:34:52 They are nothing to us.
00:34:54 They are merely food.
00:34:57 Akasha, please....
00:34:59 You think you can change my will?
00:35:02 l've had enough of this discussion.
00:35:05 Join me or die.
00:35:07 l will not.
00:35:09 -l will not.
00:35:11 l will not.
00:35:21 Do you love me?
00:35:24 -Yes.
00:35:29 Kill her.
00:35:32 -She's nothing to me.
00:35:36 ...l'd like for you to kill her.
00:35:42 -You will not touch her!
00:35:50 -Now.
00:35:55 lt's what l want.
00:36:04 How sweet.
00:36:12 l'm ready.
00:37:30 See, my children?
00:37:34 Remember your real family!
00:37:37 Or join hers.
00:37:40 Now...
00:37:44 ...give me my crown.
00:37:47 Spoken like a true king.
00:37:53 Come.
00:38:05 You see how he obeys?
00:38:08 You will...
00:38:11 ...or you will all die.
00:38:19 That is enough, Lestat.
00:38:31 That is enough, Lestat! Stop!
00:39:41 You kill me...
00:39:43 ...you kill yourselves.
00:40:32 Wait, Lestat.
00:40:36 You must stop.
00:43:13 She drank Akasha's last drop.
00:43:17 She took Akasha's death into herself.
00:43:23 She's not dead.
00:43:25 She sleeps.
00:44:26 Hello?
00:45:00 Oh, my God!
00:45:03 Jesse?
00:45:05 Hello, David.
00:45:19 David, this is Lestat.
00:45:21 -Hello.
00:45:29 l believe...
00:45:31 ...that you wanted this back.
00:45:36 Yes, thank you. Thank you so much.
00:45:50 -Can l ask--?
00:45:54 Do you want to find out?
00:45:57 Me?
00:45:59 No, l'm too old to live forever.
00:46:02 Well, if you ever change your mind....
00:46:07 So this is goodbye.
00:46:10 Yes.
00:47:11 Hello, David.
