Corrected entry: Michael is portrayed as having been killed by having his throat cut. This contradicts prior films, which portray him as being far too powerful to die by traditional means. (Ex. In the second film, he is repeatedly shot and impaled, sustaining far greater damage to his body, but returns to life upon going into a hibernation-like state for a short period.) Unless he is brought back in a future installment, the portrayal of his death makes no sense in the context of the series.

Correction: Not only was his throat slit, but all his blood was drained from his body, which is different than the other times he was nearly killed. The blood is the key. However, Selene had to intervene at least 3 times to save Michael. For example, she cut off Viktor's head as he was about to kill Michael. But, as you say, even though the audience is lead to believe he's dead, it could just be a cliffhanger and we may find out a drop of blood was left in his body, or through some other method he fully recovers.
