I never believed in fairy tales. But I was wrong.
Some fairy tales can come true. Good and evil ones.
Once upon a time there was a young lady which I'm no longer...
after a full moon night, my wedding night.
That night evil entered my life
and would never leave me again.
That night I became what I am now.
Their worst enemy.
Friday March 13, 10:58pm
Hail Mary, full of grace, the Lord is with thee.
Mother Superior?
Mother Superior, you scared me.
After the disappearance of some of our sisters...
Mother Superior?
Mallory, leader anti-paranormal commando unit
Vena Cava, explosives specialist
Talking Tina, mute telepath
Inspector Durand, official commando delegate
Ok.
Here's the low down.
A couple of nuns were kidnapped by an unknown number of...
Ghouls. They only eat virgins.
And only nuns are naive enough to be trapped by ghouls.
Didn't you learn that in school?
I never planned for a career in your unit, Mallory.
Black cat at 1 km.
What animal have you possessed now? - A bat.
Ghouls... What do we know about them?
Night creature, type B, human cardiovascular system.
Meaning...? - They bleed.
Listen. No trouble this time.
Damned. I've had it.
The mayor's wife had no business being there
when I blew up those 3 satanic terrorists.
No one is blaming you.
Black cat at 200 m.
You never know.
What do you want? Are you going to devour us?
Ghouls are a hybrid species,
cursed by your God and your genes.
We can only eat the flesh of your corpses.
I thought for a moment you were going to eat us.
We can only reproduce
with women who are still virgins.
You however...
haven't been a virtuous nun.
Your body will merely serve as food...
when you're dead.
You should've eaten at the cemetery.
Mallory...
Mallory, stop. It's dead.
You never know.
I'm Marie-Joseph. The Lord sent you.
Not so fast.
What did they do exactly?
Nothing.
Negative, Mallory. She's clean.
Another broken nail.
Come here.
Help Tina.
Nice, inspector.
Durand...
Durand?
He's coming
Mallory, I've always stood by your side.
I...
I know.
I never cared much for Durand,
but I can't deny a dying man's last wish.
Paris, at the same moment
Ladies and gentlemen...
a new era begins in the 3rd millennium.
Please give a warm applause...
for the man who came to Paris right after his consecration.
Pope Hieronymus I.
Jesus loves you.
Thank you.
At the beginning of the 3rd millennium
I see an increasing superstition,
affecting the minds of the weakest.
In this country, where the law makes it possible
for 2 sodomites to live together like a married couple.
Burn them on the stake.
Where sinners go unpunished when they kill the fruit of their loins
as an anticonceptive. - On the stake with them.
I'm telling you here and now.
Evil exists and takes on many forms.
On the stake... On the stake...
Amen.
Thomas of Aquino for Simon the Wise.
Simon the Wise. The road is clear. The pope mobile is downstairs.
Roger. We're coming down right now. Over.
Tired? - I haven't slept a wink.
I saw some things on cable.
Ok. We'll discuss that later in the Vatican.
Secret Service 24 hours later
This is agent Mallory head of our elite intervention unit.
She's responsible for the most extreme missions,
often beyond normal practice.
This is Carmina Belladone, press attaché of the Vatican.
Pleased to meet you.
Who else knows about this?
No one, except me and the Vatican's security service.
It were their best people. - Idiots.
It's pointless to keep shooting at the undead.
Undead?
What gave you that idea? Those terrorists were obviously wearing a bulletproof vest.
It were undead. In half an hour they attacked us in the church
and took the pope to a place 600 km away from there.
At first, I didn't believe it either.
No one likes to believe it. - Nonsense.
I've read a lot about your special brigade.
The pope himself wanted to disband
your gang of superstitious mercenaries
with their dubious values...
My gang was dismantled by your 'terrorists'.
Let me go.
One of my friends died for an imbecile like you.
The pope... - His Holiness
...was kidnapped. In 24 hours it will be on every front page.
I'm the only one who can find him and you're criticising me?
Then handle it yourself. - Wait.
On one condition. I'm the one who sets the conditions.
Not satisfied? Go see our competitors.
Oops, I forgot. We have none.
The forces of darkness always find your weak spot.
I had sworn never to love anything or anyone again.
But some promises are impossible to keep.
How's she doing?
She could be in a permanent coma.
Was she able to transfer her spirit before she died?
If she did, she would've contacted us telepathically.
We are a team, a family.
We must find the culprits.
You know I don't sit around waiting. - Where are you going?
Pay a visit to my informant.
The Vatican's press attaché was right. I'm no saint.
The Lord was not the best way to get to the pope.
I had to take a shortcut.
I didn't like turning to evil,
but sometimes you have to defeat the enemy at his own game,
according to his rules.
You'll never be able to get rid of me.
By marrying me, you'll always be stuck with us.
Your blood is mixed with ours.
You're almost part of the family.
I loved you.
I loved you too.
Before or after you tried to sacrifice me?
Every marriage is a sacrifice.
Didn't they teach you that in Sunday school?
You're lucky I was so bored,
otherwise I would never have come. - I had no choice.
Necronomicon, chapter 37.
'A demon in human form killed by his partner,
remains in limbo and is obligated to help his partner when summoned.'
Don't talk to me about Holy Scriptures, ok?
This isn't fair.
You killed me, remember?
And you ruined my life. I didn't call you for chitchat.
Who are the creatures with these metal masks
that murdered my team and kidnapped the pope?
Only the highest caste of evil
may wear that mask.
Only those that swore loyalty to Abbadon the Dark One.
The avenging angel? - Very good.
One of the fallen angels.
Not a simple demon like me.
I'm hearing all sorts of rumours about him.
Supposedly he wants to free all the fallen angels
and destroy the creation.
And where can I find this sect?
Necronomicon, chapter 37, part D.
'The demon only has to respond to one question each time he's summoned.'
Wait.
Do not underestimate the forces of evil, Mallory.
I could prove to be an expensive lesson...
Sweetheart.
Vena, it's me. Look up all supernatural phenomena
that happened in France during the past 5 years.
Satanists and black masses
Genitals of Christ bleeding
Basilica attacked by ectoplasm
400 heads severed
Village with 5.000 inhabitants disappeared
Stop, it's me.
Talking Tina?
Are you alright?
Why a bat? - I had no choice.
I had to choose the last brain I possessed.
My body doesn't respond anymore. Am I...?
No. You're in a coma at the hospital.
Couldn't you find anything better?
Without going back to my real body first? Never tried.
Then I may never get back in my own body.
Will you hide me? The sun hurts my eyes. I can't see anyway.
Where are we going? Let me see...
Don't do that without telling me. - It was only for a moment.
Look in my monster manual,
French Revolution, chapter 166.
Apparently we have killed their leader in the church.
There's still one succubus left. - She can take on any form.
And a noble vampire, decapitated in 1790,
whose head was never found.
Where's Vena Cava?
I left without her. - She'll kill you.
How can a village that was on the map in 1986 just disappear?
Maybe they left because of mad cow disease.
You think so?
You're wrong. There's a high concentration of negative energy.
Be careful.
You can't eat our children. I make them, I eat them.
Let's go back and have the entire area bombed.
Mallory, what are we doing here? - Looking for the pope.
and avenge us on Abbadon's sect.
I came to look for the pope,
but maybe this was much more personal.
Do you have lead-free?
Fresh A+
Watch out, Mallory. Left, right...
Go on, Mallory, teach that creep a lesson.
I'm receiving telepathic waves from the back of the gas station.
A bit skinny for a bodyguard, no?
Who are you?
I saw you on the tape of the kidnapping. Not smart to use bullets.
Any idea what happened to the pope?
No. I only know I was knocked unconscious.
And then they left you here.
Is anyone from around here?
No people are still living here since they took hold of the village.
I was kidnapped on a camping ground.
And them?
They...
They can no longer speak.
You don't understand.
The village no longer exists in reality.
It's a nightmare that never ends.
No one can escape from it.
What shall we do with them?
Ok, listen.
When I've freed the pope, I'll return
and honk 3 times. 3 Times.
That means the coast is clear and you can run. Understood?
Yes. Excellent idea.
But you can stay here.
I'll find His Holiness and get him out of here.
I was trained for these kind of situations.
Badly trained.
If you think I'll put my fate in your hands...
Too much testosterone? Excellent.
Get in the car. Time is running out.
We're alone against a massive amount of monsters and psychopaths.
Yes. And?
What do you suppose to do? - Kill them, every last one of them.
There... Telepathic transfer succeeded.
His mind is even simpler than that of a bat.
Good work, dear.
Who are you? - Mallory. Pleased to meet you.
Is everyone here?
Everyone is here.
What if your friend can't keep him under her power?
What if he regains consciousness?
Then he'll probably kill us all.
And what's your name?
Carras. Father Carras.
The bodyguards of the Vatican are priests and clergymen.
Spaniard? - Catalan.
How can you tell when a toreador is still a virgin?
No idea.
When he runs faster than the bull.
Damned. I probably sat on it on the airplane.
Hello, girl.
Have you seen a pink car with a redhead behind the wheel?
She's my friend.
She 'forgot' to take me along.
Do you want to play with us? My sister wants you to play with us.
Your sister?
Oh my god...
I can't find the pope.
Something powerful is blocking my telepathic gift.
I'm a vampire or a succubus. I kidnap the pope.
Where do I take him?
No idea. I'm no vampire or succubus.
Patience, Father.
I'll deal with them.
Will you be alright or will I have to save you again?
I serve the Vatican.
I fight for a good cause. God leads my fists.
A pink hearse in a damned village. Very inconspicuous.
Clean this up.
Fuck. The salesman swore it were silver bullets.
Are you ok? - My shoes are dirty.
I'm in some sort of secret passage way. - Hurry, Mallory.
Come
They aren't following. We're safe for now.
Talking Tina...
Is that really you, in there?
Only you would crawl into something like that.
Look around before you possess a body.
Jesus... Don't tell me you're also part of the rescue team.
What happened to that poodle?
No idea. Wasn't he in one of your missions?
Vena Cava, Father Carras.
Pleased to meet you.
What's the matter?
Nothing. I just had a feeling I was being watched.
The master will be ready soon. We spread out as planned.
Lady Valentine, who are you talking to? It's just the two of us.
Abbadon's followers have survived for centuries.
And now they're all dead.
Between us, it's for the best.
In a few hours, when Abbadon will rule the entire world,
we alone will be rewarded.
Release the berserker.
I don't have to obey a vampire.
But girl... We're grown-ups, no?
Authority is awarded according to the ancient rituals.
If you insist...
One...
Two...
Three.
I win.
Release the berserker, Morphine. That's an order.
You eat like a pig. - So what?
Couldn't you have given him a beeper?
My grandma has one. Very practical for old people.
When they fall over for example. - You are talking about the pope,
the spiritual leader of millions of people.
One of his words contains more wisdom then you'll ever acquire.
God shows him the way.
Can He show us the way also?
If we find him,
I hope he can teach you some respect and wisdom.
Amen.
This can't be true.
We're in a huge maze. We'll never find him.
Vena Cava is right.
We're looking for a needle in a haystack.
Are you alright?
You almost buried me alive. Can't you be a bit more careful.
Holy Father... - Fine bodyguards you are.
I'll have you sent back to your parish.
What's that casket for?
To torture and sacrifice myself to a pagan deity.
Merciful God, couldn't you have sent someone else to rescue me?
Hurry up. - I'm almost there.
Finally.
What is that transsexual doing here? Begone, sinner.
You're the one wearing a white dress, Mother Superior.
We'll return to the village, but how do we get out of here?
We'll find a way.
No guards.
This is much too easy.
Vena, stay alert.
Quickly, we must find them, or the ritual can't take place.
Are you sure we came through here before?
Where are the beacons?
Listen.
Hey, fuck off.
Talking Tina, tell me that's a big cat.
It's no cat. - Run away.
Follow me.
Find an exit.
Look out.
What are you looking at?
My apology.
Stop. Don't touch anything. Think.
Vena, can you hear me? - Of course, sweetheart.
Good God... - There must be a lever somewhere.
I found something.
Disgusting.
Bravo. Things are improving.
How many people do you loose each mission?
Try again, Vena.
We're all going to die because of you.
You want to play The Exorcist with your cross?
Try again.
Big problem. The tile is now on your side.
By all means do not help.
What did it look like? - Like a tile.
Step aside.
Popes and children first. - Don't touch me.
You first.
Tina is stuck. - Leave your body, Tina.
Where can I go? - Take me. Take me.
Quickly, before I change my mind.
Everything ok? - Yes.
Ok... Vena Cava and Tina, stay with the pope.
Don't leave me alone with these... these...
The priest and I will go on.
Activate biotech. See you at the exit.
Quickly find another body. I'm telling you.
My treatment costs a lot of money.
Come on.
You walk like a penguin. - Sorry.
Sorry...
How do you recruit members for your brigade?
Do you organize auditions all over France?
We're not here for small talk.
Ads. You placed a small ad in the newspaper.
I found Tina in a school for the mentally disabled.
Ironic for a telepath with an IQ of 360.
Vena was leading a company of transvestites
I used to work with. But that's all in the past.
Vena thought me what it means to be a woman.
And you?
Why did you become a priest?
Faith.
My parents died in a train accident.
No survivors. My mother gave birth to me just before she died.
I believe God wanted me to live.
So you became the bodyguard of the anticonception prosecutor.
Such a shame.
And condoms? How can you be against condoms?
Please, stop it. One more word and...
Longing for the old witch hunts again, so you can burn any criticism?
Long live freedom of speech. Sodomy or death.
Silence, or I'll excommunicate you.
If you knew what work I did before, you would've already.
So you went to Ibiza.
Get out of my memory. That's not for children.
Ok, get out, right now. I feel like I'm going crazy.
Get out. - Suicide is a mortal sin.
Is there nothing alive around here you can possess?
I just can't get in the people's mind.
Something alive, I said. - I heard you.
And you? Were you born with a stake in your hand
and a deep hatred for everything with two horns and a tail?
No, only with a tail.
What's that?
Well?
Latin.
Esoteric.
Feel free to make yourself useful.
It's unreadable. I need a piece of paper.
Wait.
That must be painful.
What are you doing?
You never did this on tombstones?
Got it.
Out of all the animals in the world you had to pick a rat.
About Ibiza, I was young and innocent.
I can't read all of it, but...
'Because they thought they were better than mankind,
God banished Lucifer and his defiant angels
and locked them up in an abyss.
However, one angel was was able to escape.'
Abbadon. But where did he go?
He wants to destroy the creation and free the other angels.
According to the prophecy, he reincarnates as a human being every 100 years,
until God gives him the keys to His Kingdom.
'He who crowned man to receive his sins.'
Vena Cava, look out.
Carras, how well do you know His Holiness?
Hardly... His appointment came as a surprise.
There were more suitable candidates.
Good God... He's not here to be sacrificed.
But... who are you?
The end of your story.
How could I pledge allegiance to him?
Vena Cava isn't responding.
Dear Lord... Have mercy. Have mercy.
Untie me, please. They're coming back. Quickly.
Wait. - What are you doing?
Look at his wounds. Evil is in him.
It must die along with him.
There must be another way.
There's no other way. The evil must be destroyed.
Where's your pity? You would never do this with one of your friends.
Fuck you.
You know nothing about me.
The press attaché. I should've known.
I'll never like the blood of normal people.
This reminds me of the good old days.
Cholera, the plague, the terror...
When you could drink noble blood
after the guillotine had fallen once again.
Yes, my darlings.
Where's the pope?
Or should I say Abbadon?
Curiosity killed the cat.
He already took out two members of your team.
But tell me...
Doesn't that mean only we remain.
And I was almost dying...
to have a taste of you.
Exciting. I haven't had this much fun in at least 50 years.
What if I would chop you into five pieces?
You can't hurt me.
Even the guillotine couldn't stop me. That's immortality for you.
My apologies.
A little cross is not enough. - I have something much better.
I'd love to play with you some more, but I can't.
Take them.
Watch it, that's hot.
It would've already been over, if you hadn't interrupted me before.
But it's becoming a habit, no?
Mallory... Forever and always Mallory.
Even Jeanne d'Arc was less trouble.
But this time, in stead of waiting for you,
I took the initiative.
The abductions and the attack on the convent.
All to lure you here, so I could deal with you on my own turf.
Ugly creature.
Fuck off.
Who are you really?
A demon? - I prefer the term fallen angel.
I bring all the good back to earth.
The whole creation should've belonged to the angels.
God created us in His Image, perfect, immortal, strong.
But He gave His creation to you,
a bunch of simple cells evolved from mud.
Creation, how beautiful it is.
But now everything will be made right.
Now that I'm the pope, the prophecy can finally be fulfilled.
Within the hour I'll free the other angels.
Think, Mallory.
We'll create a world without sin, vice or imperfection.
A world without you.
Do you really think I'd let you go through with this?
Lady Valentine.
Finally.
What are you doing? - Shut up.
You can kill me, but you're forgetting something.
I never work alone. - Me neither, don't worry.
No, no news from my agents.
I hope our telepath can localize them when she comes out of her coma.
Morphine.
Make sure their friends don't interfere with our plans.
Convent
That's how you can appear somewhere and then vanish.
Elevator Grand Hotel
Without leaving a trace. - Nothing escapes you.
Ministry of Secret Service
Won't you starve when mankind has been eradicated?
We have an agreement.
What you saw in the gas station, was only the beginning.
We'll keep a handful of people
which we'll use for breeding
for only one purpose.
Food.
Yes, general. The department Eure-et-Loir.
The faith of the world lies in your hands.
Would you like to speak to my superior? He's right here.
One moment.
Here he is. See you soon, general.
Yes, general?
Eure-et-Loir, indeed.
Good luck.
Mallory, it's me. - Where are you?
The rat.
Return to you own body and stop Morphine.
She already killed our boss, you're next.
My body still isn't responding. I...
It's about time we moved out of this place.
What a waste.
Do you really want to leave her here? - Yes.
She'll witness the fulfilment of my prophecy. If she still has blood left.
Take the transsexual being.
Hands off. No one touches my corset.
Leave her alone. - I'm no longer your spiritual leader?
I have more knowledge than all the books in the Vatican together.
Don't mock the Lord. - Arrogant human.
What do you know about God?
Come.
I'll tell the angels you were detained.
Mallory...
Look what we have here...
Our super heroine in deep trouble.
Interesting.
You're not real. It's my imagination.
What's the difference?
Are you here to gloat?
Did Abbadon release you from limbo?
Better than an axe in your back, no?
I'm dead. I no longer participate in such childish games.
No, I'm only here to watch the show.
Tell me, what's it like to feel yourself die?
And you?
What do you think?
I finally get my revenge.
Damned...
Mallory...
Remember, when you killed me,
my blood was mixed with yours?
All this time, you have suppressed its power.
If you want to live, you need to forget about good and evil.
Accept the blood as your own.
It's your only chance.
Mallory...
I don't understand you anymore.
Can you picture me wandering around for eternity
without someone to harass or to talk to?
You know why it didn't work out? You never understood one thing.
Good and evil are the two faces of the same monster.
What happened? - Don't worry. I wasn't kissing you.
We have to get out of here.
Stop, it's me, Talking Tina.
Where's Morphine? - Succubus 0, Talking Tina 1.
She did kill our boss and sent all the special forces to Eure-et-Loir.
Eure-et-Loir? - Yes.
Then we have to face Abbadon alone.
Look. The energy switch of the village.
It'll have to wait.
Forces of the universe,
2.000 years have past. Show me the gates of hell.
Help... Somebody help.
Hello, darling. You'll never guess what's happening. Wait, I...
Where do we start?
You can free Vena. I'll deal with Lady Valentine.
Fuck.
Kill them all.
You're mine. - We'll see about that.
Vena Cava, catch.
Ok motherfuckers, it's party time.
Reveal the gates and let all humans disappear.
You said you wouldn't kill all people.
He said...
What was that?
The barrier of danger. - The barrier...
Wait.
We made it to protect him.
'Whoever crosses it, will meet his worst enemy.
Only true faith can overcome this ordeal.
If one fails...'
Quickly. We need a man of faith.
If my dead would not be in vain I'd love too, but...
I'm no longer the one you seek.
Maybe my youthful innocence, but... No.
I made my first Communion, but I only believe in Mallory.
Please...
Shit. This is the last time, ok.
I thought I'd never see you again. - Who are you?
Your confession of faith.
You thought just crossing the barrier would be enough?
How could you, Mallory?
You've lost all my innocence.
You're no better than those monsters.
Mallory, is that all you can do?
You kill us because we remind you of what you are.
And you can't handle that. Admit it.
You can never escape the evil inside you.
You have betrayed the good cause. Your soul has been stained.
Good and evil are the two faces of the same monster.
Come on, Mallory, you can do it.
Fool. How do you expect to stop a 10.000 year old prophecy?
Like this.
I lost the battle, but not the war, Mallory.
Interstellar oblivion
You never know.
Where's Lady Valentine?
Can we go home now?
Not yet, we still have some work to do. There's a promise I have to keep.
Do you have to wear lipstick to be part of the team?
Yes.
To what do I owe this honour?
I've never came here before. It's pretty.
There.
Take it.
Necronomicon, chapter 112.
'The demon's spirit is set free
when his partner voluntarily returns the wedding ring.'
Where are you going now?
Down below.
To a better world.
Maybe we'll run into each other some day.
Who knows.
There. - Thank you.
What chapter is this?
Not everything is written in a book, especially not in the book of the dead.
There are moments in your life you'd like to hear a little voice say:
'Don't be afraid. Everything will be fine.'
I sometimes here that voice, in a bouquet of roses,
in a gust of wind.
It's not much, but we all need it. Don't we?
Quiet. It's starting.
Hundreds of missing people returned to an abandoned village.
It still remains a mystery,
just like the unexplained events that occurred
on the little island of Izu.
Our reporter at the scene, Sadako Asakawa.
Damned, I forgot my cigarettes.
Yes, my darlings...
