We see the priest leaning against what
appears to be a rail in a large, open building. The building appears to be a
church. We can tell from his body language that he is frightened, as he is
leaning back and his whole body seems to be tensed as fear. From the left of
the frame, the vampire emerges moving ominously and creepily towards the
priest. It is a low-angle, mid shot and also an over-the-shoulder shot. We hear
the sound of the vampire’s feet creaking against the floorboards and the
priests breathing starts to become heavy, tense and quite loud.
We cut to a point of view shot from the
priest’s perspective with the vampire looking down on the priest hungrily. The
vampire appears to be wearing a formal jacket that looks quite dirty and old,
with a striped tie and a white loose shirt underneath. His hair is very scruffy
and unclean. We can see that his facial expressions are very serious and scary
and his eyes show a lot of evil in them. Sounds of the wind howling are heard
in the background of the shot.
The audience then sees a tracking shot of
the priest moving from right to left across what appears to be a barrister on a
balcony of a church. He is leaning right against the rail, illustrating that he
is scared and wants to stay as far away as possible from the vampire. As he
moves along the barrister, his hands are tightly gripped to the piece of wood,
which shows that he is very tense and frightened. We can see the vampire
appearing in the background, moving menacingly forward toward the priest in a
steady, stiff manner. All the audience can hear is the moans from the priest
who is frightened and his footsteps along the wood as he moves further and
further away. It is a mid shot. The shot then cuts and we see the vampire
launch himself off the balcony flinging the priest down onto the altar, which
is on the lower floor of the church. The alter candles are flung in disarray
and the two men’s bodies appear to be lifeless. The camera zooms out from the
two bodies lying on the alter table and the vampire starts to feed on the
priest. We hear the sound of the balcony snapping as the vampire launches
himself onto the priest and then the sound of the loud thump from the two men
landing on the altar. The audience can also hear the sound of many items near
the altar, where the ten men landed, shatter apart. It is portrayed as a
high-angle, mid-shot.
The camera zooms out slowly for the rest of
the film. It is a high-angle, mid-shot to a long shot. The audience can see the
priest’s body lying across the alter still. As the camera zooms out, Jesus is
shown hanging on the cross above the priest. Tense music is playing in the
background and the vampire is nowhere to be seen. The shot then cuts to a black
screen and all is quiet.
