John Carpenters Vampire (1998)
Im Geheimauftrag des Vatikans betreibt Jack Crow sein martialisches Geschäft. Im Schutz des Tageslichtes vernichtet er mit seinen Gefolgsleuten Vampirnester. Als bei einem nächtlichen Überfall der Untoten seine gesamte Crew dahingemetzelt wird, können nur Jack und ein treuer Begleiter fliehen. Sie schwören Rache! Mit Hilfe eines Pastors stößt Jack auf Valek den „Meister“. Seit 600 Jahren ist der einstige Priester in einer Mission unterwegs: Er sucht das legendäre Kreuz von Bezier, mit dem Vampire das Sonnenlicht ertragen könnten – ein Alptraum für die Menschheit. Das Duell entwickelt sich zum Wettlauf mit der Zeit und findet sein grandioses Finale im Wüstensand.
