Quotes 

• Zachery : A fate of endless nighttime. An endless hunger for innocent blood. I drink in shame only to survive. I cannot bear to face my prey.

  Zachery : I am God's most desolate creature: a vampire with a mortal's heart. A predator cursed to feel pity for his prey. I destroyed the one who spawned me. I swear I will destroy his entire bloodline, the ones who stole me from the warmth of the sun. For me, there is no comfort, no peace.

• Club Door Man : Sorry, sir, it's a private club.

  Zachery : That's quite all right, gentlemen, I'm a private man.

• Zachery : You're American.

  Sofia : Yeah! You?

  Zachery : I come from many countries.

  Sofia : Oh really? How's that?

  Zachery : I travel the world.

  Sofia : Doing what?

  Zachery : Sort of... personal quest.

  Sofia : Oh. That's... cool. I love this city. It's so elegantly decayed.

  Zachery : It's one of the so-called Cities of Mysteries.

  Sofia : The Cities of Mysteries? I've never heard of that.

  Zachery : It's a city where the ways of antiquity exist in league with the modern world.

• Sofia : Zachary! What are you doing here?

  Zachery : Hoping to see you. You're going somewhere?

  Sofia : Yes, the most amazing thing happened today. This woman stopped me on the street and hired me to play at that place... Club Muse!

  Zachery : Club Muse? This woman, she was out in the daylight?

  Sofia : Yeah, it was daytime. That man who followed me, he's the owner. He's a patron of the arts. They're paying me a thousand dollars for one solo recital!

  Zachery : Sofia, you must come with me and listen carefully to what I have to tell you.

  [Ash's car pulls up for Sofia] 

  Sofia : Tell me tomorrow, okay Zachary? I gotta go now.

  Zachery : [tries to stop her]  Sofia, please! Don't get in that car!

  Sofia : Zachary! I'm nervous enough as it is, okay? I like you, but you're not my boyfriend or anything, so don't get bossy, okay?

• Ash : You are a stranger in my city. You have stood between me and my prey. What is your name?

  Zachery : Zachery.

  Ash : You stalk me. What is it you seek?

  Zachery : The girl, Sofia.

  Ash : Sofia is mine.

  Zachery : Release her to me and I shall leave in peace.

  Oracle : You are no hero! The scent of death betrays you! You are the hunter, the scourge of our bloodline!

  [Zachery pulls out his sword] 

  Oracle : Fear him not, Ash! It is you who will strike the murder blow.

  [Ash overpowers Zachery with his will and takes the sword from him] 

  Ash : Do not humiliate yourself! You are no match for me! Sit!

  [Zachery sits down] 

  Ash : This is the Blade of Laertes, a vampire slayer. These symbols endowed with magical powers... it was mine once. It was stolen from me seven hundred years ago.

  Zachery : I offer you the blade for the life of Sofia.

  Ash : I claim the blade and the life of Sofia. And your life, as well.

• Ash : You are a pitiful creature. You lust for blood, but your heart cries out for mercy. You deny your predatory nature.

  Zachery : I despise it, Ash, but I do not deny it. I am spawned from your own cursed bloodline.

  Ash : Who is your master?

  Zachery : I killed my master.

• Dreamy Girl : Kiss me!

  Zachery : I warn you, child! Stand away from me!

  Dreamy Girl : Drink from me! Take what you desire, but please, spare my life.

  Zachery : Run from me, child! I have no wish to violate your flesh!

  Dreamy Girl : No.

  Zachery : [baring his fangs]  Run from me! Now!

• Zachery : We will lie here today. Tonight we'll find a safer sanctuary.

  Sofia : Thank you, Zachery.

  Zachery : Do not thank me, Sofia. I brought you no salvation.

  Sofia : Why? What's going to happen to me?

  Zachery : Only one thing is for certain. Never again will you feel the warmth of the sun.
