Bloodsucker Leads the Dance, The (1975)

[bunniefuu]

You can go.

You are too late, sir.

The show has already been over for
half an hour and I'm going to close.

I know, but I wish I had spoken to someone.

Someone I really like.

Was that the last performance of the theater company?

In this theater and in any other theater.

The company was dissolved this evening.

May I come in ?

I'm sorry sir,
but I can't allow it.

No one is allowed inside.

Except for you, of course, sir.

Thank goodness it's over.
I have never been so humiliated.

What a noise,
about a few simple tips.

Cora, where are you?

If you want your money,
you have to come now.

Open the curtain,
the audience is gone now.

Samuel, come help!

Leave him alone.
Let him eat.

Now that he finally has something,
let him enjoy it.

Let's clean that up.

Careful, fool!

Did you hurt yourself, honey?

Not.

With such women there are men like us
but few to live with.

Leave them.
We are not all the same.

Samuel, why don't you go and
shake your hand instead of eating?

When should I eat?
I haven't eaten anything since yesterday.

All right, I'll eat later.

Who wants to have their money?
Go girls !

Here I am.
Why are you still in my paws?

Go away!

Sorry Cora, I didn't do it on purpose.

Santa Claus with the money.

It's me.
Put your signature here.

Next time it will be better, be
careful.

Here you have my signature.
- Please.

My God, what money!

I can certainly do it
two days in advance.

Thank you so much.

Evelyn, come over here and see how much I have.

Cora, why are you
leaving, always swinging your things?

Good evening, Miss Evelyn.

Is there something against me?

You are Miss Evelyn, aren't you?

Yes.

Forgive me for bothering you.

But I haven't seen you for so long.

I introduce myself.

I am Count Marnack.

Richard Marnack.

I heard you left this way.

And I didn't want to let
a last chance pass.

Hope you don't mind.

A count, what is this count looking for here?

Don't make a mistake.

Every place looks like a pretty garden,
if there are such beautiful flowers as you.

You permit ?

Allow me.

These are ... these are ...
- They are already so sophisticated in silk ...

... any further explanation is superfluous.

For a first meeting,
the theme seems clear to me.

Cora, please.
Do not be stupid.

Excuse me, but I have never met an earl.

If I were you,
I wouldn't know what to do.

What a civilized way to be so tender.

What a man...

I feel like a great lady.

Rosalinde, Penny, come over here.

Look how special it is.
A count, a real count.

Very pleased to meet you.
Very pleasant.

Which class.
I bet he has a castle.

I heard it was your last performance.

I'm sorry, because I had hoped that ...

So do we, but there are no
more shows in this theater.

Or elsewhere as far as we know.

Yes, unfortunately our work is done
and everyone will go their own way.

It's very sad,
the stage is our life.

Looks like something is dying,
but now we have to get out of here.

Don't talk about death,
Please, life goes on.

Yes, of course we have to go further,
even though times are going to be tough.

In addition, being a little hungry
will not hurt my figure.

You do not think ?

I have an idea.
- What kind of idea?

I invite you at home.
I mean in my castle.

Didn't I tell you?

There is also a castle
just like in a fairy tale.

With a difference, we have
a count instead of a prince.

But that's only a small difference.

Is the invitation only
Evelyn or for all of us?

For all of you, of course.
- Magnificent.

It is an honor to receive you.

The castle is on a small island.
Hope you will come.

I do not know.

Four girls and one man
only in a castle.

It may sound romantic,
but what's the point?

Why does everything have to make sense?

Your work is done and
I offer you my hospitality.

Evelyn, the Earl isn't going to
r*pe us all, though.

Your proposal would even be
able to seduce a saint.

Wait a minute, Samuel.

If Samuel came.
There would be a man present and then ...

Of course, take whoever you want.

Me ?

Well you call that a man?

Accept my invitation, you can stay
as long as you want.

It's okay,
we'll be your guests for a few days.

Thank you,
I am very happy.

See you tomorrow.

The boat leaves at 1 am.
I will wait for you.

You don't know how happy I am.

You don't know how much
this affects us, do you Evelyn?

Cora.

Dear friends, to do what you are doing
you can leave the curtains closed.

You also don't feel
when you don't see the thunder.

That m*therf*cker Samuel, always sneaking around.

Don't worry, honey.
The poor have all kinds of complexes.

I understand he loves us all.

You are too good,
you have understanding for everything.

Samuel !

Samuel.
- You called me ?

Come on and don't fool around.

Help me with this corset
pull on it and spread it out a bit.

What are you doing ?
It's not the first time you've seen me naked.

It excites you, poor wretch.

Don't overwhelm me like that, Cora.
You know I'm in love with you.

Ah, what stupidity.

Try to have a good time
when we get to the castle.

What a great experience.

Conceived.
Samuel, isn't that great?

Think about it.
- I lied today.

What a shame that you are like this.

You know what ?

This invitation
to the castle is not kind to me.

We are not castle people.
And then this man, this count ...

He's a little strange ... mysterious.

If you say so.

But tell me, are you afraid or are you just
jealous that the count is so fascinating?

How are you there, Cora?

Come on, help me now.

You're hurting me, fool.
Go away, I don't need you anymore.

Go away.

What's going on?
Good god you're going crazy again.

Between.

There is nothing wrong.

There is nothing wrong, I understand.
Do not be sad.

Help me fill this out.

Yes of course.

See that, I packed everything.

You like her a lot, don't you?

It's like a disease.

Maybe it is wrong.

But I...

I do not know

Lets forget that.

What's this ?

I see a photo with your partner.

You can't forget it, can you?

Since he died ...

... I can verify his presence
and not tolerate another man.

That's why I didn't want to
accept the count's invitation.

I believe you made the right decision.

You deserve a little pleasure
and besides, you are so beautiful.

You have the right to be happy.

Maybe you're right.

That's why I also accepted.
But are you coming with us anyway?

Yes of course.

Even though I'm afraid it will end badly.

Are we going to lock him up?

It's beautiful.
- Thank God.

Otherwise, I would have been very disappointed.

You know Evelyn, you are very attractive.

Thank you, you are very gallant.

No, it's more than that
I fell in love with you.

But we just met.

Do you believe it?

You should know that.
I've seen all your sprectacles.

Really ?

Yes, and don't laugh at what I'm going to say now.

Only yesterday I dared
to speak to you for the first time.

I was too scared for that.

- Scared of me ?
- Yes.

For your eyes, your hands, your hair.

You look so much
like her I just thought ...

She ?
Who are you talking about ?

No, I'm sorry
it's too personal.

It is not fair.
You say you love me,

you arouse my curiosity and then
you fall back mysteriously.

Just like in a play.

If we reveal everything at the beginning,
we will disappoint the audience.

They come for the denouement,
just before the curtain falls.

Is it still far, young man?

Are you never tired?

Is this all up to you?
Damn muscular anyway.

It comes from rowing.

You're kinda stuck for a good boy.

I could easily wind up the compliment.

Miss, don't confuse this boy.
The count will be angry if we are late.

The count does not care about the time.
He's too busy for that.

Look at the.

The world is a stage, but not always.

It's disgusting, men
only think about one thing.

Not you, darling?

Sure, but
it's different for us.

Look at this this man is going to throw up.

What a man ?
- Whoever is there.

It's not a man,
it's Samuel.

A seasick man,
I don't think he's a real man.

Here is the castle.

- Hello sir.
- Hello, William.

Welcome, Monsieur le Comte.
Your coach is ready.

Alright William.

The ladies' luggage
arrives with the next boat.

Very well, Monsieur le Comte.

Mademoiselle Evelyn ?

Thank you.

Cora.

Thank you, Monsieur le Comte.

I think it's very nice
that you invite us to the castle.

Hope you have fun there.

Is there a butler?

But of course.

Is he handsome ?

Cora, please.

Let her speak,
she is right to ask.

In addition, I also have a housekeeper.

Fantastic.

- Hello, Monsieur le Comte.
- Hello, Jefferson.

Welcome, miss.

Prepare the rooms for our guests.

Luggage will arrive later.

Please.

We have arrived.

Please.

Gregory.

Take the bag from the young woman.

Good God !

Cora, please don't be so vulgar.

I was alone at home
waiting, you know.

Forgive me, I forgot.
I am now a woman.

I don't think
I said anything vulgar.

Cora, I said it for your own good.

Why ?
I did not do anything wrong.

Stop anyway, do you want
everyone to see who you really are?

Forgive him sir.

Cora is actually a
good girl, just a little loud.

She has this bad habit
which I don't know where it comes from.

Am I the only one
with bad habits?

I identify the habits
of my guests without ever doubting them.

I see it as a
part of their personality.

Cybill, do you want to put the rooms in order?

They are ready sir,
just as you want them to be.

If they want to follow me,
I'll show them their rooms.

I call it life.

If you want to follow me, please.

On and on, Samuel.

My mother could see me now.

Jefferson, please stay available in case
our guests have any further wishes.

At your service sir.

Who the hell is that, Frankenstein?

What are you waiting for Gregory,
carry the luggage upstairs.

Don't be too harsh on
him, poor boy.

What a strange place and what a lazy person.

I told you, I
shouldn't have come.

Don't be so bad.

Ladies and gentlemen,
dinner is served at 8 o'clock.

You have time to rest,
cool off and change for dinner.

Jefferson, can you help?

See you later.

- Your room, mademoiselle.
- Thank you.

Incredible, I think I'm dreaming.

Only a dream.

I'm afraid to wake up from all of this.

And then these two,
we see that they are well brought up.

They are so beautiful.

Cybill says they are artists.

A different kind of people and
we shouldn't be too free with them.

Always this Cybill, except
that there are guests at the castle.

It is true. Have you seen the one
the master calls Evelyn? Do not you think so ...

I think you should work more
instead of chatting too much.

It's almost over, mademoiselle.

I only said these ladies
are beautiful, don't you think?

They must be from high society.

They're evil creatures, that's what they are.

Patented sinners, lost women.

The wrath of God will be without mercy.

It is written:
"Vade retro satanas."

Enough, don't waste any more time.

And remember this dinner
is served at 8 o'clock sharp.

Health.

Cora is a lot of fun.

If I continue like this,
I'm going to burst my clothes again.

Right now, no one will oppose it.

You should cover up better,
you will stain this beautiful dress.

Thank you for your attention.

Thank you.

What a sad appearance you have ...

Come on, laugh.
Life is too short.

Don't do that, miss,
I don't appreciate this familiarity.

So I go on tiptoe.

I bet he must feel like us.

Now you see what happens
if you are too free-spirited.

Not everyone has a sense of humor.

Yes, what a bad mood ...

What a weird guy.
It makes me shiver.

It reminds me of ghosts in castles.

Every respectable castle
has a familiar old ghost.

Here too ?

Sure, but it's not Jefferson.

Which then ?

My grandfather or my
father's or maybe both.

But no, I don't mean to
impress with a ghost story.

It's probably interesting.
Please go ahead.

Let's go.

Our family is cursed and this
led to the Mamack tragedy.

It was a woman.

It has been claimed that the Marnacks are
unlucky in love.

It started with my grandfather
who married an artist.

At that time a famous singer.

He brought her here.

My father was born.

And his wife fell in love with
the local doctor.

At the time, there was a village.
My grandfather caught them at the castle.

Blinded by jealousy
he avenged his honor.

He resumed his rights and with his own hands
cut off his head.

He beheaded her?

With a dagger.

A Malaysian kris which is still
kept at the castle.

He climbed
the tower that same night and grandfather threw himself into the sea.

This grandfather was hot-blooded.

The
same thing happened later with my father.

They said my mother was
a very beautiful woman.

And very religious.

My father could not forgive her when she
was in the arms of a Protestant priest.

And after my birth, because my
father really wanted an heir ...

... he cut off his head with the same dagger.

And the village was burnt down.

And then he jumped into the sea too.

Maybe you're not the son of ...

Graaf Marnack?

Who can tell.

And then, what does it matter
now that my father is no longer there?

Let's have a toast.

To my father or better yet ...

... to the spirits who are sheltered in this castle,

encumbered by a secret which
cannot be given a price.

Good night, Cora.
Good night, Samuel.

Good night.

What a beautiful evening,
Did you have fun?

Excellent.

Good night children, sleep well.

You too Cora.

Cora, I'm scared.
Can't you see I was right?

It's a family of
murderers, headhunters.

Stop it,
go to bed and leave me alone.

Who is here ?

Please forgive me.

Just heaven, you scared me.

How did you get in?

Don't be afraid, I thought
you saw that door.

It gives access to my room.

I just wanted to make sure
everything is to your liking.

Yes thank you,
Everything is so good here.

Only ...
- Only what?

Forgive me, who is in this picture?

Isn't it amazing
that you look like him so much?

Indeed.

It was my wife's room.

Your woman ?
Was she beheaded too?

No, dear Evelyn, not at all.

One day she picked up
her suitcases and left me.

Just like that.

She left and I
never had any of her stuff again.

Maybe she found another man.

The first time I saw you
my heart jumped.

For a moment I thought it was,
such a resemblance ...

Evelyn, I'm standing here.
I fell in love with you beyond anything.

Just because I look like your wife?

Maybe it's something
that you're not her.

This room remained empty for a long time.

Like my life.

- Would you like ...?
- But I...

No, I don't want an immediate response.

Rest a little,
there is still time.

Lock the door, if you will.

But if you need anything,
knock on the door and I'll be ready for you.

Good night

Comtesse Evelyn Marnack.

Excuse me.

Ladies, I'm bringing water.

Okay, put it on the table.

Good night.

It is clear that he is in love.

Otherwise, he would never have
invited us all to the castle.

To be close to her.

But she fell in love with him.

Did you see how she looks at him?

Too bad, she is such a beautiful girl.

I do not understand that a woman
is so interested in a man.

You are not jealous, are you?

Don't be so worried.

- Who is here ?
- It's me.

What do you want ?

Why did you come here?

I saw two of the girls having sex.

I thought maybe
you would have liked to see that too.

It's delicious to watch.

Fat pig.

Go show you or I'll call someone.

You don't do this because
you like it, don't you believe honey?

Plus, you're very smart and
you don't want me to tell you everything, do you?

Cursed monster!
Devil !

As soon as I get the chance, I'll k*ll you.

Say what you want but you ca
n't do nothing to me, little b*tch.

Myriam, what are you doing?

I'm sorry if I woke you up, Carol.

But I brought a pitcher of water
to these two girls who sleep together.

Yes, those two.

You know what I mean.

They make love together.

Ah, but they're two women.

What does that mean ?

I saw them, you know.

They are beautiful and I wanted to
know if I am beautiful.

- How do you like me, Carol?
- Oh, you are very pretty, Miriam.

This is the first time that I see you naked.

Just feel them, Feel
how hard they are.

Just feel them.
Touch them.

They are really beautiful.

What do you have soft skin.

Now we're going to sleep.
Good night, Carol.

- You know what Miriam?
- What?

You are very beautiful.

Good night, girl.

Good morning all.

Already up so early?
What a wonderful day.

Can I greet our host in my own way?

Cora, stop this.
You behave like a ...

But Evelyn, I'm a ...

And what I'm doing here is
so fun to do ...

... is that I don't have a problem,
I have to admit.

Either way, don't worry,
I won't take the count.

- Shall we go for a walk?
- Why not.

We are going to rest.

What do you mean ?
You just got up.

If you go now,
I find myself alone here.

Samuel will keep you company.

Samuel.
Do you call it company?

They go to bed and
the other two have gone for a walk.

But what am I going to do?

What kind of day is it going to be for me?

There is a shortage of men here.

Him, he looks like an ice doll.

The gardener would be like a locked monkey.

Where do I end up?
It's so boring here.

Is it possible that there is
no one else on this island?

No one.

If not the fisherman's hut
on the other side of the island.

Great, in that case I'll go for a walk.

Do you want me to come with you, Cora?

No, I prefer to go alone.

As you wish.

- Hello
- Hello.

Margaret,

How many times have I said
to be at the appointed time at the castle?

What madness to offer hospitality
to these terrible women.

And do I need the presence of such sinners?

And what t*rture to serve them.

Oh, Lord, what sin have I
done to deserve such a punishment?

What did I do ?

And Samuel, then,
this insufferable little villain.

Please, mademoiselle,
measure your words.

I don't want you to be contaminated by the
presence of these terrible women.

You are right, forgive me.

But the count has been alone for so long.

I don't want him back in trouble.

This woman...

I do not allow it.

God will not allow it.

Only he can punish them all

His anger will end
when their heads fall.

It will be ruthless and terrible.
I feel it.

They will tremble with fear.

I can feel divine anger coming already.

Hello, fisherman.

Can I help you ?
I am quite manual.

Hello madam, are you
one of the guests of the castle?

That's right, you are well informed.

It's not very hard.

Apart from the people of the castle,
we are the only ones on the island.

Us?

Do you mean you're not alone?

I see that,
your wife is waiting for you at home.

No, I live with my aunt.

Can I go in the boat?

Do not approach,
soon you will be in the mud.

If you want to rest, I have
a modest little cabin there.

Magnificent. It's romantic.

- So we're going?
- As you wish, over here.

How cute is he ....

- Is that the cabin?
- Yes that's it.

Hope you find something there.

We are no longer alone.

Don't blame me, she's my aunt.

Go away, can't you see I'm busy?

Go away!

I see it.

It was great,
but I really have to go now.

Okay, but I hope you come back.

What did you think of it?

You are a pig, a pig.

I told you to stay away from the guests.

I don't want you to like this.

What did she want?

What did you tell him?

Nothing.

What should I have said to him?

She asked me to come with her.

She told me I was rotting here.

And if I wanted to live better
on the continent, I ...

perhaps...

What can you do ?

Stallion!

Idiot.

What's wrong with life here? Tell me.

You were born here and you are going to die here, do you hear?

Yes, hunger and misery.

From hunger?

What do you know about hunger?

And remember, I'll break your neck
if you come near the castle.

I bring supplies to the castle,
as long as these people stay on the island.

Despite this, we are poor ...

very poor indeed ...

but we are honest people.

While...

What?

Go ahead, tell me what you found out?

So who is it ?
Are you afraid of them?

You taught your son to fear people.

And you force us to
live a miserable life.

She's right, dad.
They take advantage of us.

You are too good for this world.

Too stupid, you mean.

He's in love with that b*tch, the housekeeper.

This b*tch will never be
yours, she despises you.

I often hear him
say that you are a monster,

that you are repulsive.

Cora, where have you been?

I caught a fisherman,
But you don't understand that, honey.

The real affairs of men.

- What were you doing here?
- I was reading in the library.

Okay, you're doing a great job.

Well done, keep reading treasure,
you still have a lot to learn.

Cora.

Hello Darling.

Delicious, really delicious.

- Everything is incredibly amazing.
- As good as you, my love.

Who is here ?

What the hell is Jefferson?

I'm sorry to interrupt you, sir.

Dinner will be
served later this evening .

Miss Cybill thinks she is not in good shape.

What does she have ?

I think she's got a heart problem
or maybe a hysterical attack.

Who knows, this is not the first time.

Annoying, fix it for dinner.

Very well, Monsieur le Comte.

Yes, my dad loved g*ns
and he was a very good fencer.

He seems to have fought in
many duels.

In other words, he was an angry man.

He was always ready to draw his sword ...

The dagger. With what dagger
did he behead your mother?

This one.

Beautiful.

Very beautiful and tragic.

Tell me, sir, with the same
as your grandfather and your father ...

Yes, with that, chac,
and justice was done.

Do you call it justice?

Forgive me, but have you already used it?

Not yet.

Dinner is served, sir.

Come on, let's eat.

I understood that, Count de Marnack.

Really ?

Good night, Cora.

- Good night, my darlings.
- Good night.

Come on Cora, give me that bottle.

You've had enough for tonight.

Leave me alone, don't bother me.

I am in great shape tonight.

My god, maybe Samuel was right.

This key was there again this morning.

My love.

What a dirty wh*re!

Sleep well my love.

Listen to me.

Hear my prayer.

Angel of justice.

Save your enemies.

Save them then, good is victorious.

Lord, punish these women for sacrilege.

Shame on the human race.

Perfume, flowers and tricks.

Let them be the example of
your ruthless justice.

Myriam, what's going on?
Why are you screaming like that?

Gregory, take Myriam.

Mr. Mallory, you must
inform the Earl immediately.

It's impossible.
How could such a thing have happened?

Open up, open Jefferson.

But it's open, Monsieur le Comte.

Make sure our guests
are made aware of the situation.

Cybill, the corpse needs to be repaired.

Ask Gregory for help.
Can you handle this?

Let me take care of it.

Only Gregory wears these big shoes.

Gregory...

No, it cannot be true.

It's impossible, I'm telling you.

This castle is extremely dangerous.

You didn't want to believe me
but my hunch was correct.

And now ?

Is that still to your liking, girls?

While Cora is buried outside,
with her head placed on her body.

You should have some understanding for him.
He loved Cora so much, poor Samuel.

But have you discovered something?

Who could have done that?

There are a lot of footprints
on the floor, big footprints.

I still can't believe it.

Why don't you do something?

You can't just bury
the dead crying.

The police must be informed.

If it was possible,
I would have warned them already.

The sea is so rough
that no one can navigate.

And the phone is not working.

I had the body buried
to prevent it from decomposing.

It would have been too bad.

But ladies no matter what,
don't worry.

I am responsible according to the law.

Excuse me, Monsieur le Comte, the
Marnacks' dagger is out of place.

We looked everywhere.

Nothing.
He disappeared.

The dagger of the Marnacks ...

The Marnacks' dagger punished
the evil sinner.

Rosalinde.

Oh my god, who's there?

It's me, Samuel.
What are you doing here ?

You scared me.

I was on my way to
the kitchen to eat something.

I couldn't swallow a bite at dinner.

I really couldn't,
in front of this empty chair.

But yes, now I'm hungry.

I understand, you have to eat.

Life goes on.
I will accompany you.

Sit down, Rosalinde.

I'm going to the pantry to
get some food. Okay ?

I apologize but I do not join you.

I'm sorry, Samuel.

But I am no longer hungry.

I really don't know why.

My stomach has shrunk again.

Let's go, please.

I saw Gregory walking in the garden.

What a horrible creature.

The mere sight of it is already making me sick.

I fully understand that.
He's a weird guy.

He looks like a ghost
with a strange look in his eyes.

I don't want to think about it anymore.

Hope the police arrive soon.

And the mystery of this m*rder will be solved.

I'm tired.

Go to bed.
Good night Samuel.

You feel better now ?
Good night then.

What happened ?
It's Rosalinde.

I do not know.

Rosalinde !

No, not Penny.

Rosalinde.

Lie down.

Someone bring
a blanket and some water.

Quickly please.

Oh my God.

Control yourself, honey.
We have to think of Rosalinde.

Don't worry, try to stay calm.
What happened ?

When I entered the bedroom,
I didn't want to wake Penny.

So I climbed quietly into bed.

His head was partially encroaching on my pillow.

I wanted her to push herself
and then ... saw that ...

It is so horrible.

Let's give her something to calm her down.

Penny.

God, do not let your anger come
upon us.

Have mercy, Lord,

because I am a demon,

because my bones are broken,

and my soul is deeply unhappy.

Be merciful to me, Lord,

turn to me

looking at me,

forgive me
and bless me at the hour of death.

Gregory,

come to the library later.

I have something important to tell you.

- Come in, Gregory.
- Sorry.

- Ah, honey, it's you.
- I don't like being left alone.

I was waiting for Gregory
but he didn't come.

I even had it searched
but we can't find it.

I understand, he's behaving strangely.

I'm so scared I want to leave.

I can not stand it anymore.

Calm down my darling.

I understand you darling,
but it's impossible.

It would be madness
to cross with this weather.

As long as I'm with you,
you don't have to worry about anything.

As soon as possible, I notify the police.

Then all this will be resolved.

Now that we talk about it,
how is Rosalinde?

Rosalinde ?

I do not know.
I haven't seen her today.

She's probably somewhere
crying in her Penny corner.

She is in terrible pain, poor girl.

I hope she doesn't
do something stupid.

These forms of love are
often excessive with strange reactions.

We have to go find her,
it's already dark.

Rosalinde !

Samuel what's going on?

Go!

Miriam, I'm scared.
I want to go here.

I haven't closed my eyes for two nights.

Don't think about it Carol.

Who is going to hurt us?
Who cares about us?

You know, I keep wondering
who this terrible monster can be.

I bet the count ...

How can you say something like that?
He is so kind and sympathetic.

Sympathetic, kind?

But who really knows what he did?
the countess has arrived, hasn't she?

Then she ran away or was she k*lled?

But she leaves with her lover.

Everyone knows it.

But some people
tell a different story.

Do you know the story of
his father and his grandfather?

Not.

Both are said to have k*lled their wives
with this horrible dagger.

Why would this poor man have
k*lled women?

No, they weren't k*lled.

They were ex*cuted.

And the hangman's hand was ...

... armed by God.

Come in !

I am sorry to have disturbed you.

The Earl has asked me to
keep you company until he returns.

Why ?
Where did he go ?

See the fisherman if anyone can get the police.

Why did he go alone?

I could go with him.
I want to go here.

And if there is a boat ...

What do you mean ?

Guess you want to be here
when the police arrive.

Weren't the victims your friends?

Or am I wrong?

Of course, they were friends.

We lived in peace in
this castle until you came here.

Do you realize everything that is going on here?

Don't be ridiculous,
Can't you see I'm desperate?

And what do I have to do with it?
The count invited me here.

Well then.
What does this have to do with you?

You were too busy with
the Earl to notice anything.

The count loves me.

The count is ill.

And even if he doesn't flee the curse of the Marnacks.

No that's not true.

It's just a made-up story.

And you're unlucky,
too similar to his wife.

Since the day she disappeared,
he has not known peace.

And it is clear that he asked
or let someone take revenge.

No, don't say that, the count loves me.

The count loves no one.

He can't, it's his destiny.

And you had his invitation,
no need to accept it.

Now I know for sure that you
are the next victim.

Maybe this evening.

No, I didn't do anything.
I want to go here.

The count took care of you.

He wants to see you die slowly.

Only then will he be satisfied.

It will look like the way he k*lled his wife.

Not !

- Evelyn, what's going on?
- Let me go.

What's wrong ?

Where are you going ?
Evelyn, come back!

[i[ouvre cette="" porte.[="" i=""][/i[ouvre]

Evelyn, don't do this.
Stop, come back!

Listen to me !

You have to listen to me.

A beautiful weapon.
Beautiful and terrible.

Just as terrible
as your story, young man.

You would be that poor man
who would have k*lled these women ...

... to take revenge for all the
abuse, insults and ridicule

that your victims made you endure.

Yes, that's the reason.

I don't think there is anyone else
who has been as humiliated as me.

Day after day.

I was proud for years to
have to take it and cried in despair.

I was a coward.

I couldn't defend myself
and I was in love with Cora.

And do you see inspector,

she laughed at me, together
with these two other b*tches.

Here at the castle,

when the count told us about the dagger,
I hatched a plan for revenge.

The location was ideal,
the atmosphere was right.

The story was so fascinating.

Arrest me, Inspector and let everyone
know what I've been capable of.

I am ready, ready to pay a high price.

Who would have thought what happened to these women?

This poor Samuel.

What was your job in the company?
I mean, what exactly were you doing there?

I was the handyman,
I did the decor and everything.

Pity.

Because as an actor you would have
had an extraordinary career.

Really great.

Miss, do you recognize this photo?

It looks like me ...

What does that mean ?
How did you get this photo?

It doesn't matter,
don't worry about it.

Monsieur le Comte, the woman sitting next to you
is very similar to your wife.

What?

Yes.

It's an old story.

This lady was, before you met her,
locked up in an institution.

She managed to escape.

And the family did their best
to keep it from you when you married her.

There is no better opportunity
to have it all covered.

The lady seemed to be healed.

In addition, the concerns of
some influential people resolved.

And that of the police too.

But now things are different.

They took a different turn.

Mr. Mallory, how long
have you been employed by Mr. Earl?

Twenty years.

Well.

In this case, you should
immediately recognize this person.

Of course, it is Lady Catherine,
the Count's wife.

Are you sure ?

Absolutely.

What assurance.

Then I also assume
that you don't know who the m*rder*r is.

He's not a m*rder*r.
It is the avenger of God who brings justice.

Armed with a dagger?

God often uses his own creatures
when he punishes unclean fishermen.

And this time he used you, Mr. Mallory.

By the way, I hope you get an
explanation for these black ribbons.

Three to be precise.

It is strange to hang them
on the frame in your room.

Maybe you are the k*ller.

Miss, take a good look at this photo.

It is without a doubt
Madame Catherine Sylvie van Marnack.

That's why she wanted to
escape last night.

And if the count hadn't arrived on time ...

Yes, the count.

Strange that the count did not recognize her,
after all, she is his wife.

During the day with her, mademoiselle,

the other countess, the real one, where is she?

What countess?

There is only one countess here.

Come on girl,
tell me everything you know.

No, I don't know anything.

That night
Gregory was in your room ...

and it was not the first time.

He used the key you forgot.

I carry the key to my room always with me.

But that night you left
your key in the lock.

I was in the kitchen to get some water.

And you stayed there all night?

Because Gregory was waiting for you.

And you know very well
that you haven't come back.

How do you know ?

Gregory mentioned everything yesterday.

He couldn't handle the situation anymore.

Where were you that night?

I'll tell you where you were.

You were busy with that
opening another door.

With this key which is not the key to your door.

Gregory, the m*therf*cker.

Speak now because we
found this key under your mattress.

I have no regrets for what I did.

And I would do it again.

I love this man,
Count Richard de Mamack.

I grew up in his house.

I have felt drawn to him since my youth.

Over the years, I have cherished this love.

And the hope that my love
would be heard grew.

Until the age of majority
I was noticed as a teenager.

Me young and tender
my soul was turned upside down.

I have become his.

And I stayed that way for quite a while.

But the protocol, the state, the rules
had to be respected.

I was not offered the possibilities
of such an ambitious dream.

And when the count got married,
after his father died

with Countess Catherine.

Inspector, you never understand
what happens to a woman's soul.

I was jealous and
why shouldn't I be?

They didn't even try
to hide their feelings.

They made love everywhere.

It seemed intentional to hurt me.

In bed, in the garden, on the table.

They didn't even know who was around.

And I had to help.

Life has become a terrible nightmare.

With my broken heart and my hurt pride.

Helpless in my despair.

Then I learned that
the countess was ill.

It happened at a time
when I was weak.

So to be cared for,
I dared to ask for help.

But Madame was ill,
she needed attention.

Lots of care,
and I had to take care of her.

He was so selfish. It was all him.
I didn't care if he hurt me.

I had been an adventure.

Just a toy for his enjoyment.

Then I thought of my revenge.

Do you remember the disappearance
of your wife, Monsieur le Comte?

You were on a trip to the mainland.

When you came back, she was gone.

And I let you believe ...

that she was gone and
I couldn't hold her back.

That she had run away with another man.

I made it disappear.
I drugged her and locked her up.

Or ?

In the one place
the Earl would never look.

If this is true,
in the name of God is it hidden?

In the hanger cell.

It has always been said that the counts themselves after
having k*lled their wives, had thrown themselves into the sea.

It was more romantic ...

But the truth is,
the Marnacks hanged themselves.

Just like all murderers
this need to be hanged.

The cell was still locked
and access was prohibited.

This is how the Earl tried
to escape this family's curse.

And the countess?

I could have k*lled her but

I didn't have the courage to do it.

I hoped she would die somehow.

Later when the count
seems to be resigned

and my hope grew again,

he returned to the castle
conquered by these women.

So I wasted no time.

I decided to use the countess.

I convinced her that I was going to help her.

And under my influence,
she did everything I said.

It was in my power.

All these women had to die.

She would also have died
if he hadn't arrived on time.

Then I found the courage
to settle this with the countess.

This is the only way, Inspector,
that I could be happy.

The most pleasure.

Could you go open the cell?

Keep this with you and
wait for me at the car.

Yes sir.

After you.

One moment.

You can go,
I don't need you anymore.

Let's go.

Do you need me, Cybill?

Catherine !

Oh my God.

Who are these people ?
What do they want?

Listen to me, Catherine.

We must accompany these gentlemen.

Why ?

I want to stay here with you.

Not, Catherine.

We have to go.

Come now.
Come on, countess.

Do what the gentleman tells you.

Poor Catherine.

Now I understand a lot of things.

Catherine.

Have a nice day sir.

Don't worry,
we'll take good care of it.

Farewell.

Farewell, Catherine.
