Character mistake: On two occasions throughout the film, Kraven's accent changes - once when he is talking to Lucian near the beginning of the movie and near the end of the movie when he is telling Selene that Viktor killed her family.
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.
Ax
Selene: Whether you like it or not, you're in the middle of a war that has been raging for the better part of a thousand years. A blood feud between vampires and lycans. Werewolves.
Michael Corvin: Huh?
Selene: Consider yourself lucky. Most humans die within an hour after being bitten by a lycan or any immortal. The viruses we transmit are deadly.
Michael Corvin: So... if you bit me, what happens? I become a vampire instead?
Selene: No, you die.
Question: There is a major plot point which doesn't make sense to me. When Selene killed Viktor, who turned her into a vampire, why didn't it kill her too? I thought that when one vampire dies, all the vampires that were turned by them died too. That's why Viktor never killed Marcus. Is there something I'm missing?

Answer: Marcus told Viktor that if either of the Corvinus brothers were to die, it would also kill the whole Immortal bloodline (Vampires and Lycans), but this was a lie to prevent Viktor from killing his brother William.
