Synopsis

The movie opens with a midget & his associates exploring a forest, until they find a cave. In the cave is a coffin with the skeleton of Lilith, the mother of all vampires. The midget takes a box out of his pocket. The box contains the 4 sections of Lilith's heart. He puts it in her body & she rapidly begins reanimating. She rips the hearts out of the associates & goes for the midget. The midget pulls out the key from Demon Knight, which is the only thing that keeps her in line. Liliths kills more associates & the scene cuts to the Cryptkeeper scene.

Katherine, played by Erika Eleniak, lives with her punk-ish brother Caleb. One night, Caleb goes to a brothel with one of his mates, but is turned into a vampire. Katherine goes to the police to ask them to look for Caleb to no avail.

Dennis Miller plays Rafe Gutman, a private investigator whose office is an old movie theatre. Katherine reluctantly hires Rafe to look for Caleb. Rafe uncovers a brothel run by vampires, where the money from the clients that visit the brothel is put towards a major Christian organisation. The midget meanwhile, destroys the key, so Lilith is now immortal.

Katherine gets kidnapped when they fall for a trap set up by Caleb. Rafe fills some super soakers with holy water & he & the organiser of the church (looking to redeem himself) enter the brothel & burn all the vampires.

The reverend from the church & Rafe find Lilith. The reverend is killed by a knife in the heart & Lilith also breaks his hand. Meanwhile, Rafe finds Caleb & shoots the super soakers. Caleb's body is burned & he falls to the ground.

Rafe finds Katherine & after Liliths disappears, they escape. At the church while shooting a documentary, Lilith returns, leaving a bloody trail. Rafe cuts her heart into 4 parts, as that is the only thing that can destroy her, once the 4 parts are out of her body. Rafe is about to be killed by Lilith when Katherine grabs a trident & stabs Lilith's hearts out. Lilith's body burns to bone & Katherine & Rafe leave.

After locking away the box with the hearts in it, Rafe & Katherine sit in Rafe's car. Rafe begins to fondle Katherine, when he asks 'What's that perfume you're wearing.' Rafe pulls back Katherine's skirt to find a pair of bite-marks on her thigh, where she was presumably bitten by Lilith. Katherine replies 'It's not perfume. It's sunblock', and quickly reveals her fangs as she bites into Rafe's neck. The camera cranes upwards as we hear Rafe screaming.

Another Cryptkeeper clip is shown, then the credits roll.

Tales from the Crypt film series

This was the second of three planned movies under the HBO Tales from the Crypt banner. The first, Demon Knight, was made in 1995. A third feature, Ritual, was made in 2001, but released as a standalone film because of the box office failure of Bordello (when Ritual was released on DVD, however, it was distributed as a Tales from the Crypt film). Demon Knight (also known as Tales from the Crypt Presents: Demon Knight) is a 1995 horror film directed by Ernest R. Dickerson, and stars Billy Zane, William Sadler, and Jada Pinkett Smith. ...
