Near the beginning of the movie, while Selena is looking at the CCTV video from outside the subway station, Kraven enters the room and talks to her. Throughout their conversation, the sound quality of his voice changes as he walks away from where the mic is located (by Selena). See more...

In the closing credits, a song is played with no words in it. Is this song "Coward" by Renholder or another one? I have checked everywhere but I am not sure. This song is also apparently played in the sex scene in Underworld: Evolution. [The song is called, "Eternity and a Day" and you can find it on the UnderWorld original score.]
How old is Selene supposed to be? [She was turned around the last years of Viktor's reign, and then Amelia was awakened for a reign of 100 years, meaning that in this movie, which also shows the end of Amelia's 100 yr reign, she has been an immortal for a little longer than 100yrs, and then add her human years to that which would be around ten years old. So 110.]
I wonder whether Kraven and Lucian are actually the two (out of three) Sons of the Corvinus clan. Before Lucian died after being shot by Kraven, he called him 'cousin'. I would also be grateful if anyone would explain what Viktor meant by Marcus being a descendent of Corvinus (Does it mean that Marcus turned one of the sons of the Corvinus clan into a vampire or he is related to that guy who survived the plague? I'm confused). [Kraven and Lucian are not the sons of Corvinus. Corvinus was a SINGLE man, who had children. One of his children was bitten by a wolf, one by a bat. At least one other of his children remained human, and had offspring. Eventually that human line resulted in Marcus. Kraven and Lucian were later either born or brought into their respective races. Lucian, calling Kraven cousin, is referring to the fact that the werewolf/vampire clans are "cousins" in that they're the "offspring" of siblings (the sons of Corvinus). In that sense, all werewolves are siblings, all vampires are siblings, and all werewolves are cousins of all vampires.]
I watched the original version and have recently watched the director's cut. Unless I'm missing something, I couldn't notice any difference between the two. Was the difference really that subtle, or was the director's cut no different from the theatrical release? And if so, why label it the director's cut? [The extended version that I've seen is twelve minutes longer than the original and contains a number of alternate versions of already existing scenes. However, there are no particularly significant or long scenes added - it's more just the occasional character moment here and there that boosts the length, so, if it's been a while since you've actually seen the original, I can easily see how you might not have registered many of the additions - I had a certain difficulty working out which bits were new myself.]

What is the name of the song in the trailer and who sang it? [In the trailer the song is Red Tape, by Agent Provocateur.]
Can someone please explain to me why Erica's vampire fangs are so much longer and sharper than anyone else's? (When Michael wakes up at the mansion and Erica is hanging off the ceiling, you can really see them). Even in full vampire mode, all the others' teeth seem to pale in comparison. Why is she so special? [Not all people have the same size teeth. Why should vampires be any different?]

What's the name of the song playing when Michael is going through his first transformation into a Lycan? ["Judith" by A Perfect Circle - though in the movie Maynard has remixed the song for that movie. He also was a producer for the soundtrack. A very good buy.]
Can anyone explain Lucian's arm blade? It seems totally out of character for him, and every time he changed to wolf form he'd have to track it down and reattach it. Moreover, since these vampires don't have any weakness to metal, there's no special advantage in using a metal blade instead of his wolf claws. So what's the point? [In most of the shots, Lucien takes his coat off when he changes to wolf form, and the blade would be attatched to a mechanism in him coat. Also, the film gives us an example of the blade hurting a vampire: bloodloss. And that kind of weapon could do some serious damage, and as it probably wouldn't kill the vampires, it would almost definitely slow them down.]
