This latest
addition to the 'Underworld' series opens six months after the events of the
second movie, Underworld: Evolution. The vampire Selene is captured by humans
during "The Purge," a massive crusade of war to exterminate vampires
and lycans after mankind learns of their existence. Humans call Lycans
"Non-Humans" and Vampires are called "The infected."
12 years later,
it is revealed that human governments all over the world had committed
genocides to vampires and lycans, killing everything. Surviving populations
were reduced to being scavengers and guerrillas. 90% of the vampire race was
annihilated. Selene is freed from cryogenic suspension and escapes the medical
corporation Antigen. The corporation is trying to make an antidote for the
virus that creates vampires and lycans. Selene starts to have strange visions
after her escape, which she follows, believing them to be linked to her lover,
the vampire-lycan hybrid Michael Corvin. The visions lead her into a building where
she runs into David, a fellow vampire.
While talking to
David, Selene has another vision. Following the vision, she discovers not
Michael, but a young girl called only "Subject 2," also known as Eve.
Later revealed to be a hybrid and Selene and Michael's daughter. David, noting
that Eve (Subject 2) has been injured by the lycans and is somehow not healing,
takes them to his coven. David's father, Thomas, does not welcome Selene and
Eve, stunning Selene with the news that Michael died twelve years ago and that
Selene was the cause for the destruction of the vampire race. Upon being given
some vampire blood, Eve heals extremely quickly.
Dr. Jacob Lane,
director of Antigen, is revealed to be a lycan alongside his son, Quint. The
"antidote" the corporation has been working on for many years is
actually to make lycans immune to the deadly effects of silver and to enhance
their physical abilities. Eve's hybrid genetic code is required to achieve
this, so Lane sends Quint with other lycans to the vampire coven to recapture
her.
Meanwhile,
expecting a human attacks at any moment, David tries to rally the vampires
resistances to fight back, while his father orders everyone to evacuate and
hide. Most of the vampires stay, and arm themselves heavily. Unexpectedly,
lycans arrived in large numbers instead, and numerous vampires are slaughtered,
a huge blow to the coven. Selene encounters a gigantic "super lycan",
who is later revealed to be Quint, his body changed by injections using Eve's
blood. Selene is knocked unconscious under a pile of rubble, Eve is turned over
to the lycans by Thomas in exchange for their departure, and David is mortally
wounded during the battle. Selene decides to save Eve but first revives David
using her immortal blood, given to her by Alexander Corvinus in Evolution.
Able to survive
in sunlight, Selene enlists the help of Detective Sebastian, a human who tried
to investigate Antigen earlier in the film. Sebastian agrees to help save Eve,
admitting he was married to a nurse who was bitten at work and became a
vampire, until she was killed by authorities during the Purge; they forced her
to out into the day, into direct daylight, and she was burned to death.
Selene destroys
part of Antigen's headquarters using explosives and silver gas, forcing Dr.
Lane to move Eve out of the building to perform an operation to create more of
the antidote. Selene escapes from the lycans in the building. (Antigen is
nearly entirely staffed by lycans) In the process, she finds Michael
cryogenically frozen in a laboratory. She shoots his cell to let him out.
Escaping in a van, Dr. Lane is intercepted by Sebastian and then by Selene, who
causes the van to crash. Quint arrives, transforms into his super lycan form,
and fights Selene.
Eve awakens on
her stretcher, frees herself from the van, and engages Dr. Lane in a fight, who
has injected himself with the super lycan formula used on Quint. Sebastian and
the revived David aid Eve in her fight until she kills Dr. Lane by ripping his
throat out.
Meanwhile, Quint
corners Selene in a small cement guardroom but is forced to revert to his human
form to get to her, only for Selene to shove an activated silver-based grenade
into Quint's body. He heals instantly, trapping the grenade inside. Panicking,
he half-changes back to lycan form, but it is too late, and he explodes.
Selene goes to
find Michael but finds an empty cryogenic cell with Eve sharing his vision and
learns he is on the roof. Selene, Eve, and David run to the roof only to find
Michael has gone. Selene narrates, concluding that she will find Michael and
take back the world from the humans and lycans, so the vampires can rebuild
themselves as the humans declared war.
