Factual error: Every time the silver nitrate is shown on clothing, it is shown as silver. Silver nitrate in fact is black once exposed to light.
Underworld (2003)
Ending / spoiler
Directed by: Len Wiseman
Starring: Bill Nighy, Kate Beckinsale, Michael Sheen, Scott Speedman, Sophia Myles, Shane Brolly, Erwin Leder
Kraven didn't kill Lucian. They had a deal where Lucian would cut off some of his skin and Kraven could become the leader of the Vampires and pretend that Lucian was dead. The feud started when Lucian fell in love with Viktor's daughter, got her pregnant, and Viktor killed his daughter to prevent the hybrid from being born right in front of Lucian. With Selene and Lucian's blood, Michael becomes the hybrid. The Lycan killed the Elder Amelia. Selene kills the Elder Viktor. Kraven kills Lucian. As the movie ends, the blood of the imprisoned Lycan flows and awakens the last remaing Vampire Elder. An Selene fears that instead of being the hunter she'll become the hunted. Then it cuts to a scene of the vampire elder descended from Corvinus. The blood of the werewolf Viktor killed in that room drips into his mouth and his eyes narrow like Michael's eyes did, leaving the possibility of a sequel.

Michael Corvin: I want to stay with you.
Trivia: The plot was supposedly loosely based on Shakespeare's "Romeo and Juliet."
Question: 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?
Answer: Removal of the head kills everything. Immortal or not. At least that's what I saw.

Chosen answer: 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.
