Viktor Has Awoken | Underworld | Creature Features

As soon as they killed off Victor's character, they shot themselves in the foot. Best character in the whole Franchise, thanks to Nighy's performance.

Are you saved? If you died tonight would you go to heaven or hell? The Gospel, which means the Good News is the news that God Almighty, the Creator came in the flesh as Jesus Christ to take away the sin of the world. The one God is a trinity of the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit. The Son came and laid down his own life to save ours. His sacrifice on the cross paid the price for our redemption with his own blood. On the third day he rose from dead and offers the gift of salvation and forgiveness to those that repent and trust in him. Although God's creation was created perfect, having no death, sickness and disease, the creation became corrupted through Adam and Eve in them disobeying God. In this rebellion the creation became fallen through the curse of sin and mankind became separated from God. This world is fallen, but God offers reconciliation to him through his provision at the cross. Ultimately God will restore his creation to perfection when he returns but those that who reject his offer of redemption will remain condemned by their sins and go to hell. John 1:1,14 KJV In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and THE WORD WAS GOD. [14] And THE WORD WAS MADE FLESH , and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth. John 1:10 He was in the world, and the world was made by him, and the world knew him not.

@@cpegg5840 I believe it was Viktor that created the chain as well. So that gave him 100 years to establish the vampiric laws and customs as he saw fit, then Amelia follows to enforce it as she does whatever Viktor tells her to, and by the time it gets to Marcus he can't change anything because the people have spent 200 years accustomed to a certain way of life.

I guess my only wish is that I wish things would have worked out with Scott speed man and that maybe Viktor and Lucien’s deaths weren’t so premature.

More so admiration, his respect for her is little at best.. Viktor's experiences are of an ancient and largely misogynistic world.
