30 DAYS OF NIGHT [2007]

They're Coming!

Barrow, Alaska - Northernmost town in the U.S.

Isolated in 80 miles of roadless wilderness.

Cut off every winter for 30 days of night.

Ally Riis, about her slaughtered dogs: What sick jerk would do this?

John Riis: Every kennel. Every dog we had.

Eben: Did you fight with anyone recently, John?

Ally Riis: I'll kill them. I'll kill them.

Eben: This wasn't done long ago. I'll find them, okay?

Carter: I saw Wilson's helicopter logo.

Pulled that stuff out before it got totally trashed.

Eben: You keep your copter under lock and key, don't you?

Wilson: Yeah, I put it in dry dock when the tourists headed south.

I haven't looked at it for days.

They ripped out the throttle, the rotors, half the fucking helicopter!

It's my life, Eben.

Why would someone rip the hell out of my bird?

Eben: Let me tell you what I got.

You don't work at the refinery.

You didn't fly in.

Somebody's have seen you.

And you're definitely not from around here.

How'd you get in?

[The Stranger didn't say anything]

Eben: All right.

We got a long time to figure this out.

Nobody's coming for you for a month.

[The Stranger smirks]

Bar the windows.

Try to hide.

They're coming.

This time they gonna take me with them, honor me.

For all that I have done.

~The Stranger

This is Sheriff Eben Oleson.

Stay in your homes, lock your doors and load your firearms.

This is not a drill.

~Eben Oleson

Anyone with a genny should go home immediately, just to be safe.

 If you don't have one, you should meet at the diner.

~Eben Oleson

No way out of town.

No one to come help.

You can feel it.

That cold ain't the weather, that's death approaching.

Who you think they gonna take first?

The girl who thinks a gun will help her?

The kid. sheriff's kid?

Or the old gal?

~The Stranger

Jake: They're like vampires, you know.

Stella: Vampires don't exist, Jake.

Doug: They don't fall when you shoot them.

Beau: Hell, neither do I.

Stella: I should've fought harder.

Kept Wilson here.

Eben: It's hard to stop someone when their family's at stake.

The things you do to save your own.

Stella: We were like that once. Weren't we?

I'm done playing with this one.

You wanna play with me now?

~Little Girl Vampire

Carter: Eben, could we make it to your station if somebody created a diversion?

Eben: How?

Stella: These things can't survive the sun.

What if we brought the sun early?

Helen had that operation at home.

Jake: Yeah, she used an ultraviolet light to grow the stuff.

Stella: I can run for her place, let them follow me.

Hit them with the sun lamp while the rest of you go to the sheriff's station.

Beau: Just because something stopped Bela Lugosi, doesn't mean it can stop these things.

Stella: Why would they send that stranger to cut us off if they can handle the light?

Jake: What if it doesn't work?

Stella: It has to.

You do understand?

What can be broken must be broken.

~Marlow

It took centuries for us to make them believe we were only bad dreams.

We cannot give them reason to suspect.

Destroy them all.

~Marlow

I can smell your blood.

~Eben Oleson

Stella: What did you do to yourself?

Eben: What I had to.

UNDERWORLD: EVOLUTION [2006]

My God. Brother, what have you done?

8 centuries ago, unknown to humanity,

a blood feud raged between a ruling class of vampires

and a rebellious legion of werewolves known as lycans.

Legend tells that the war began with 2 brothers, the immortal sons of Alexander Corvinus:

Markus, bitten by a bat, became the blood leader of the vampires.

William, bitten by the wolf, became the first and most powerful lycan.

 For 6 centuries I was a loyal soldier of the vampire clan.

But I was betrayed.

The war was not as it had seemed.

In one night, the lies that had united our kind had been exposed.

Kraven, our second-in-command, had formed a secret alliance with Lucian, ruler of the werewolf clan,

to overthrow Viktor, our leader.

But Kraven's lust for power and domination had failed.

Viktor was not the savior I had been led to believe.

He had betrayed us all.

Soon the hunt will be on for his killer.

I have but one ally left, Michael, the human descendant of Corvinus.

Neither vampire nor lycan, but a hybrid.

It's only a matter of time before we're found.

~Selene

Selene: You're not as strong as you might think.
Michael: What?
Selene: Michael, you're unique.
There's never been a hybrid before.
However ambivalent you feel about it, your powers could be limitless.
But you depend on blood.
You need to feed.
Without it, you'll be growing weaker by the second.
Use the time for that.
Michael: What if I don't?
What if I can't?
Selene: Normal food could be lethal.
If you don't anticipate your cravings, you will attack humans.
And believe me, you don't want that on your conscience.

 The truth is harder than the light to absorb.
~Tanis

Tanis: Some history are based on truth, and others on deception.
Viktor was not the first of our kind, as you were led to believe.
He was once human, the ruler of these lands.
Marcus... he's the one.
The source.
The first true vampire.
Selene: So the legend is true.
Tanis: Toward the end of his ruthless life, when the next breath meant more to Viktor than silver or gold,
Marcus came with an offer, a reprieve from sickness and death.
Immortality.
And in return, Viktor was to use his army-turned-immortal to help him.
Selene: To do what?
Tanis: To defeat the very first werewolves, a dangerous and infectious breed,
created by Marcus' own flesh and blood, his twin brother, William.
But these weren't the lycans we know.
Disgusting though your brethren may be, they at least are evolved.
No, these were raging monsters.
Never able to take human form again.
It was only later generations that learned to channel their rage.
And William's appetite for destruction and rampage was insatiable.
He had to be stopped.
And so once Viktor's army was turned, the legions of vampires under his control,
tracked down and destroyed the animals, then captured William and locked him away.
Viktor's prisoner for all time.
Selene: Why let him live?
Tanis: For the very same reason that Viktor never conspired against Marcus, fear.
He was warned that, should Marcus be killed,
all those his bloodline would follow him to the grave.
Selene: So in Viktor's mind, William's death would mean the end for all lycans, his slaves.
Tanis: Yes, a clever deception, but one Viktor was hardly willing to put to the test.
And so Marcus was protected at all costs.

Corvinus: You are no different from Marcus and even less noble than William.
At least he cannot control his savagery.
Selene: Anything I've done can be laid at your feet.
Hundreds of thousands have died because of your inability to accept that your sons are monsters,
that they create monsters.
You could've stopped all of this.

No matter what he's become, he's my son.
~Corvinus

Corvinus, cut his vein: Quickly now, before there is no more legacy left in my veins.
Selene: What will I become?
Corvinus: The future.

An unknown chapter lies ahead.
The lines that had divided the clans have now been blurred.
Chaos and infighting are inevitable.
All that is certain is that darkness is still ahead.
But for now, for the first time, I look into the light with new hope.
~Selene

TWILIGHT SAGA: NEW MOON [2009]

The Next Chapter Begins

Edward: So how come Jacob Black gets to give you a gift and I don't?

Bella: Because I have nothing to give back to you.

Edward: Bella, you give me everything just by breathing.

The Volturi are a very old, very powerful family.

I guess they're the closest thing to royalty my world has.

They're very refined.

No respect for human life, of course, but a respect for the arts and the sciences, at least.

And the law... Above all, the law.

~Edward Cullen

Only one that's regularly enforced.

That we keep the existence of our kind a secret.

We don't make spectacles of ourselves,

and we don't kill conspicuosly unless of course, you want to die.

~Edward Cullen

Bella: I could protect you, if you change me.

Edward: Bella, you already do protect me.

You're my only reason to stay alive, if that's what I am.

But it's my job to protect you.

If a rush of danger is what it takes to see him, then that's what I'll find.

~Bella Swan

Bella, wipe the blood on her head: Oh my God, I'm sorry.

Jacob: What, you're apologizing for bleeding?

Jacob: What, I can't hold your hand?

Bella: No, of course you can.

I just think it means something a little different to you, so...

Jacob: Okay, tell me something.

You like me, right? [Bella nodded]

And you think I'm sort of beautiful?

Bella: Jacob, please don't do this.

Jacob: Why?

Bella: Because you're about to ruin everything. And I need you.

Jacob: Well, I've got loads of time. I'm not gonna give up.

Bella: I don't want you to, but it's just cause I don't want you to go anywhere.

And that's really selfish.

I'm not like a car that you can fix up.

I'm never gonna run right.

So, I should be fair to you.

It's not something I can just run away from, Bella.

But I would run away with you... if I could.

~Jacob Black

Bella: So you're a werewolf.

Jacob: Yeah, last time I checked.

Bella, can't stand seeing Edward being tortured: Kill me! Kill me! Not him!

Aro: How extraordinary.

You would give up your life for someone like us.

A vampire.

A soulles monster.

Bella: You don't know a thing about his soul!

Edward: Bella, the only reason I left was because I thought I was protecting you.

I needed you to have a chance at a normal, happy life.

Bella: It was so easy for you to leave.

Edward: Leaving you was the hardest thing I've done in 100 years.

And I swear, I will never fail you again.

I'm sorry.

Edward, about Charlie: I'm not technically breaking any of his rules.

He did say I couldn't take a step inside the door, I came in through the window.

He's not gonna forgive me easily.

Bella: I know.

Edward: Can you?

I hope you can, cause I honestly don't know how to live without you.

Bella: The only thing that I can think of for it to be fair is to just vote.

Edward: You don't know what you're talking about.

Bella, to Edward: Shut up! [to Alice] Alice?

Alice: I already consider you my sister. [hugs Bella] Yes.

Bella: Thank you.

Jasper: I vote yes.

It would be nice to not want to kill you all the time.

Rosalie: I'm sorry. I'm really sorry to both of you for how I've acted,

and I'm really grateful that you were brave enough to go and save my brother.

But this isn't a life.

I would have chosen for myself.

And I wish that there's been someone to vote'no' for me.

So... no.

Emmett: I vote 'hell yeah' [hugs Bella]

And we can pick a fight with these Volturi some other way.

Esme: I already consider you a part of the family. [nodded] Yes.

[Carlisle step towards Edward]

Edward: Why are you doing this to me? You know what this means.

Carlisle: You've chosen not to live without her, which leaves me no choice.

I won't lose my son.

Edward: Jacob, I know you have something to say to me.

But I want to say something to you first, if that's alright.

Thank you... thank you for keeping Bella alive when I didn't.

Jacob: No, you didn't.

And it wasn't for your benefit, trust me.

Edward: I'm still grateful, but I'm here now.

I'm not gonna leave her side until she orders me away.

Edward: I have one condition if you want me to do it myself.

Bella: What's the condition?

Edward: And then forever.

Bella: That's what I'm asking.

Edward: Marry me, Bella.

TWILIGHT [2008]

When You Can Live Forever 
What Do You Live For?


You're Isabella Swan, the new girl.

Hi, I'm Eric. the eyes and ears of this place.

Anything you need, tour guide, lunch date, shoulder to carry on?

~Eric 

Bella, as The Cullens enter the cafetaria: Who are they?

 Angela: The Cullens.

Jessica: They're Dr. and Mrs. Cullen's foster kids.

They moved down here from Alaska, like, a few years ago.

Angela: They kind of keep to themselves.

Jessica: Yeah, cause they're all together, like, together together.

The blonde girl, that's Rosalie and the big dark-haired guy, Emmet.

They're like, a thing.

I'm not even sure that's legal.

Angela: Jess, they're not actually related.

Jessica: Yeah, but they live together, it's weird.

And okay, the little dark-haired girl's Alice, she's really weird.

And she's with Jasper, the blonde one who looks like he's in pain.

Dr. Cullen's like this foster dad/matchmaker.

Angela: Maybe he'll adopt me.

Bella, as Edward enter the cafetaria: Who's he?

Jessica: That's Edward Cullen. He's totally gorgeus, obviously.

But apparently nobody here's good enough for him.

Like I care, you know...

Seriously, don't waste your time.

Bella: I wasn't planning on it.

Hello...

I'm sorry I didn't get a chance to introduce myself last week.

I'm Edward Cullen.

You're Bella?

~Edward Cullen

Edward: Why didn't you move with your mother and Phil?

Bella: Well, Phil's a minor league baseball player and he travels a lot,

and my mom stayed at home with me,

but I knew it made her unhappy.

So, I figured I'd stay with my dad for a while.

Edward: And now, you're unhappy.

Bella: No...

Edward: I'm sorry, I'm just... I'm just trying to figure you out.

You're very difficult for me to read.

Bella: Hey, did you get contacts?

Edward: No...

Bella: Your eyes black the last time I saw you and now they're like, golden brown.

Edward: Yeah, I know.

It's the... it's the flourescent.

[walks away]

Bella: How did you get over me so fast?

Edward: I was standing right next to you, Bella.

Bella: No, you were next to your car, across the lot.

Edward, chuckles: No, I wasn't

Bella: Yes, you were!

Edward: Bella, you're... you hit your head. I think you're confused.

Bella: I know what I saw.

Edward: And what exactly was that?

Bella: You... you stopped the van. You pushed it away with your hand.

Edward: Well, nobody's gonna believe you, so...

Bella: I wasn't gonna tell anybody. I just need to know the truth.

Edward: Can't you just thank me and get over it?

Bella: Thank you...

Edward: You're not gonna let this go, are you?

Bella: No.

Edward: Well then, I hope you enjoy disappointment.

Edward: Bella, we shouldn't be friends.

Bella: You really should've figured that out a little earlier.

I mean, why didn't you just let the van crush me and save yourself all this regret?

Edward: What, you think I regret saving you?

Bella: I can see that you do.

Bella: You know, your mood swings are kind of giving me whiplash.

Edward: I only said it'd be better if we weren't friends,

not that I didn't wanna be.

Bella: What does that mean?

Edward: It means if you were smart, you'd stay away from me.

Edward: I'd rather hear your theories.

Bella: I have considered... radioactive spiders and kryptonite.

Edward: That's all superhero stuff, right?

What if I'm not the hero? What if I'm the bad guy?

Jacob: Okay, did you know Quileutes are supposedly descended from wolves?

Bella: What? Like, wolves? Real wolves?

Jacob: Well, that's the legend of our tribe.

Bella: So, what's the story about The Cullens?

Jacob: Well, they're supposedly descended from this, like, enemy clan.

My great grandfather, the chief, found them hunting on our land.

But they claimed to be something different, so we made a treaty with them.

If they promised to stay off Quileutes lands, 
then we wouldn't expose what they really were to the palefaces.

Bella: How did you know where I was?
Edward: I didn't... [Bella intend to leave the table] Don't leave, I...

Bella: Did you follow me?

Edward: I... I feel very protective of you.

Bella: So you followed me?

Edward: I was trying to keep a distance unless you needed my help,

and then I heard what those low-lifes were thinking.

Bella: Wait... You say you heard what they were thinking?

So what, you... you read minds?

Edward: I can read every mind in this room, apart from yours.

[look at another table] There's money... sex... money... sex... cat.

And then you... nothing!

It's very frustrating.

Bella: Is there something wrong with me?

Edward: See... I tell you I can read minds and you think there's something wrong with you? 

Bella: You're impossibly fast and strong.

Your skin is pale white and ice-cold.

Your eyes change color.

And sometimes you speak like you're from a different time.

You never eat or drink anything.

You don't go out in the sunlight.

How old are you?

Edward: 17...

Bella: How long have you been 17?

Edward: A while...

Bella: I know what you are...

Edward: Say it! Out loud! Say it!

Bella: Vampire...

Edward: Are you afraid?

Bella: No...

Edward: Then ask me the most basic question. What do we eat?

Bella: You won't hurt me...

This is why we don't show ourselves in sunlight.

People would know we're different.

[Edward stands in the spot of sunlight, turns around and his skin glittering]

This is what I am.

~Edward

Edward: I'm the world's most dangerous predator.

Everything about me invites you in; my voice, my face, even my smell.

As if I would need any of that.

As if you could outrun me.

As if you could fight me off.

I'm designed to kill!

Bella: I don't care...

Edward: I've killed people before.

Bella: It does not matter...

Edward: I wanted to kill you.

I've never wanted a human's blood so much in my life.

Bella: I trust you...

Edward: Don't!

Bella: I'm here, I trust you...

Edward: My family, we're different from others of our kind.

We only hunt animals.

We've learned to control our thirst.

But it's you... your scent, it's like a drug to me.

You're like my own personal brand of heroine.

Bella: Why did you hate me so much when we met?

Edward: I did.

Only for making me want you so badly.

I still don't know if I can control myself.

Bella: I know you can...

Edward: I can't read your mind. You have to tell me what you're thinking.

Bella: Now I'm afraid.

Edward: Good.

Bella: I'm not afraid of you.

I'm only afraid of losing you. I feel like you're gonna disappear.

Edward: You don't know how long I've waited for you.

So the lion fell in love with the lamb.

Bella: What a stupid lamb.

Edward: What a sick, masochistic lion.

About 3 things I was absolutely positive.

First, Edward was a vampire.

Second, there was a part of him and I didn't know how dominant that part might be,

that thirsted for my blood.

And third, I was unconditionally and irrevocably in love with him.

~Bella

I'm breaking all the rules now anyway.

Since I'm going to hell.

~Edward

Bella: So, does the person have to be dying to become like you?

Edward: No, that's just Carlisle.

He'd never do this to someone who had another choice.

Bella: So how long have you been like this?

Edward: Since 1918. That's when Carlisle found me dying of Spanish influenza.

Bella: What was it like?

Edward: The venom was excruciating.

But what Carlisle did was much harder.

Not many of us have the restraint to do that.

Bella: But didn't he just have to bite?

Edward: Not exactly.

When we taste human blood, a sort of frenzy begins, 

and it's almost impossible to stop.

Bella: But Carlisle did.

Edward: First with me and then his wife, Esme.

Bella: So, is Carlisle the real reason that you don't kill people?

Edward: No, he's not the only reason. I don't wat to be a monster.

My family, we think of ourselves as vegetarians, 

cause we only survive on the blood of animals.

But it's... it's like a human only living on tofu.

It keeps you strong, but you're never fully satisfied.

Bella: Can the rest of your family read people's minds like you can?

Edward: No, that's just me. But Alice can see future.

Bella: I bet she saw me coming.

Edward: Alice's visions are subjective.

I mean the future can always change.

Edward: I'm gonna take you to my place tomorrow.

Bella: Wait, like, with your family?

Edward: Yeah...

Bella: What if they don't like me?

Edward: So you're worried not because you'll be in a house full of vampires,

but because you think they won't approve of you?

Bella: How did you get in here?

Edward: The window.

Bella: Do you do that a lot?

Edward: Well, just the past couple of months.

I like watching you sleep, it's kind of fascinating to me.

I always want to try one thing... Just stay very still...

[Edward start kissing Bella]

[catches Bella's scent from across the field]

You brought a snack.

~James

Edward: Listen to me, James is a tracker. The hunt is his obsession.

I read his mind.

My reaction on the field set him off.

I just made this his most exciting game ever.

He's never gonna stop.

Bella: What should we do?

Edward: We have to kill him, rip him apart and burn the pieces.

This isn't my fight and I've grown tired of his games,

but he's got unparalleled senses, absolutely lethal.

I've never seen anything like him in my 300 years.

And the woman, Victoria, don't underestimate her.

~Laurent

Edward: Rosalie, Esme, could you put these on so the tracker will pick up Bella's scent?

[throw Bella's coat to Rosalie]

Rosalie: Why? What is she to me?

Carlisle: Rosalie, Bella is with Edward, she's part of this family now.

And we protect our family.

Nothing's gonna happen.

There's 7 of us and there's 2 of them.

And when everything's done, I'm gonna come back and get you.

Bella, you are my life now.

~Edward

We lost the tracker.

Rosalie and Esme are going to Forks to protect your father.

I'm coming to get you.

Then you and I are gonna go somewhere alone.

 And the others will keep hunting.

I'll do whatever it takes to make you safe again.

~Edward

I'd never given much thought to how I would die.

But dying in the place of someone I love, seems like a good way to go.

I can't bring myself to regret the decisions that brought me face-to-face with death,

they also brought me to Edward.

~Bella

[hold Edward]

Son, enough... remember who you are.

~Carlisle

You have to make a choice. You could let the change happen.

~Carlisle

Edward, while Bella screaming in pain: Carlisle, what's my other option?!

Carlisle: We could try to suck the venom out. 

Edward: No! You know I won't be able to stop!

Carlisle: Then find the will to stop.

But choose, she only has minutes left.

Edward: I'm gonna make it go away, Bella... I'm gonna make it go away...

Death is painful, easy.

Life is harder.

~Bella

Bella: We can't be apart! You can't leave me!

Edward: I'm here...

Bella: Okay, just don't... you can't say stuff like that to me. Ever!

Edward: Where else am I gonna go?

Bella: Edward, why did you save me?

If you just let the venom spread, I could be like you by now.

Edward: You don't know what you're saying...

You don't want this...

Bella: I want you. Always.

Edward: I'm not gonna end your life for you.

Bella: I'm dying already. Every second, I get closer, older.

Edward: That's the way it's supposed to be.

Bella: I've decided.

Edward: So, that's what you dream about? Becoming a monster?

Bella: I dream about being with you forever.

Edward: Forever...
