THE VAMPIRES by Louis Feuillade
10th episode MARRIAGE OF BLOOD
A few months have passed since the tragic engagement
of Philippe Guerande and Jane Bremontier,
during which the concierge Leon Charlet lost his life, poisoned by the Vampires.
Philippe and Jane are now married. But the journalist and his young wife
know that they will not find happiness while the menace of the Vampires looms over them.
For a few months now, we have heard nothing of the Vampires.
But should we not detect their insidious hand in various sinister and mysterious happenings
which have recently been widely reported?
Augustine Charlet, the widow of the concierge poisoned by the Vampires...
Would you like to work here as a maid?
The jovial Mazamette felt at home at the Guerandes' house.
We are surrounded by enemies. We must keep our eyes open and our mouths shut.
The superstitious Augustine asked the cards to put her onto the trail of her husband's killers.
The Vampires continued spying on the house round the clock.
And the next day...
If you wish to solve the mysteries which surround you,
come in the greatest secrecy to Madame d'Alba, 13 avenue Junot, for a consultation.
We have some revelations for you.
Sir, may I have the afternoon off to go and visit my husband's grave?
Without her knowing it, Augustine had a jealous suitor.
At the home of ''Madame d'Alba''...
Your husband is dead... murdered... poisoned...
Something is preventing the manifestation of the spirits!
Here are the accomplices in the crime!
And here is the poisoner! The Grand Vampire!
So, you do not wish to confide in me?
I implore you, Mr Mazamette, say nothing to my masters.
Love and jealousy kept Mazamette awake day and night.
If you wish to solve the mysteries which surround you,
come in the greatest secrecy to Madame d'Alba, 13 avenue Junot, for a consultation.
We have some revelations for you.
While Guerande, Mazamette and Augustine go to the police station...
At daybreak...
Open up in the name of the law!
Oil...
I know how to find the Vampires.
We just have to follow the trail of oil.
WaiIing and sobbing...
That night...
The Vampires were in an orgiastic celebration of the marriage of Irma Vep and Venomos.
On the balcony, a knotted rope, ready for a possible escape.
