Blurb/Synopsis:

The Deamhan world is in disarray. Freed from Limbo, Lucius, the once feared and Ancient Lugat, goes on a killing spree to wipe out any remaining traitors in the city of Minneapolis. Meanwhile The Brotherhood's return along with the growing population of vampires riles up the remaining Deamhan who choose to stay behind rather than abandon the city.

The body count continues to pile up forcing both humans and Deamhan to pick a side. Either allow Lucius to free the Pure Ones, the first living Deamhan from Limbo, or take him out and cripple their already fragile presence in the city.

They walked down the hall and to the room. They saw Selene standing near a wide open window with her back to the door and to Anastasia’s surprise, Lucius standing off to her right. The large room encompassed the length of three large master bedrooms. A bed was lined up against the wall with several packed suitcases on top of it. Selene looked over her shoulder, frowning at Anastasia but her piercing eyes revealed a woman who still had something up her sleeve.

“I told you we couldn’t trust her.” Selene stared wildly at Lucius.

A look of disappointment appeared on Lucius’ face.

“And she brought her annoying friend.” Selene’s green eyes circled to Remy.

Remy’s eyes tapered and he quickly turned to Anastasia. “We’re about to die, aren’t we?”

“There’s a high probability,” Anastasia muttered to him.

“So I guess I should just say what’s on my mind.” He cleared his throat, preparing for his speech. “Believe it or not I’m a Deamhan that follows Decretums.” He looked toward Selene. “Your Decretum, in particular, demands that Veronica be protected at any cost. So, yeah, whatever happened to that?”

Selene’s eyes narrowed in on Remy. “You need to leave. This doesn’t concern you.”

“Hey, we’re all sorry that Lucius was thrown into Limbo, but what you’re both trying to do now...it isn’t right and you know it,” Remy said.

“And what makes you think my stint in Limbo was wrong?” Lucius asked him. “It was the best thing to ever happen to me.”

Remy burst out in laughter. “You’re kidding, right?” His eyes moved to Anastasia. “He’s kidding, right?”

Anastasia allowed her body to tense up and at any moment she felt that Lucius would strike Remy down in a single blow. She wanted to avoid any confrontation and hoped to sway Selene with words alone.

“We don’t have time for this.” Lucius looked to Selene and nodded. “Go. I’ll join you shortly.”

Anastasia didn’t want to Selene to leave. She would miss her opportunity to get her alone and if she made one move to follow her, Lucius would easily manhandle her.

Selene walked over to the bed and she picked up a long brown jacket with a white ruffled collar. She slid the jacket over her body and adjusted it. “You made a mistake coming here.”

“What makes you both think that once you release them, they’ll welcome us with open arms?”

“Because we are their children, Anastasia, and good children obey their parents.”

Imagine Dark Curse on the Big Screen for the world to enjoy. Who would you want to play your characters? Pick 4 or 5 of your characters and tell us who you would want to play them in a movie and why them.

1. Lucius – Nikolaj Coster-Waldau

As an avid viewer of Games of Thrones, Jaimie is known for his cunningness, his brutality, and his weird and creepy relationship with his sister. Given that Jaimie Lannister is a conundrum and in this current season, it’s unsure if he’s going to stick by his sister’s side and do her psychotic bidding or if he’s the one in the prophecy that will take her life. With all this, I believe that Nikolaj has the acting ability to bring Lucius to the screen. Not only is Lucius known to forgive Deamhan for their actions, he’s also known to strike down those who stand against him and his agenda. He’s a complex character with much thought, wit, and vileness and Nikolaj has the ability to play the character well.

2. Remy – Taylor Kitsch

Remy is considered a middle aged Deamhan but he’s been through much more than many older Deamhan. Born into a bourgeoisie family, he has no choice but to tear back his sheltered life if he wants to survive in the dark world of Deamhan. Plus he considers himself a ladies man so to speak. I believe that Taylor Kitsch has the acting ability to bring this character to life on screen with his attractive looks and his younger appearance.

3. Anastasia - Anna Mouglalis

Anna is relatively unknown to American audiences and so is Anastasia. I’d want an actress to show the Dr. Jekyl and Mr. Hyde persona that Anastasia has and I think as an actress Anna Mouglalis can pull that off. Anastasia is a brutal killer who Deamhan fear. She is also loyal and is currently facing a dilemma within herself which spills out to those around her. Not to mention, her first name is Anna.

4. Lambert - Jack Savoretti

A vampire who stands by the side of Deamhan is hard to find yet Lambert is such one vampire. The owner of Dark Sepulcher, he tries to keep the peace between his own vampires and Deamhan by offering an establishment in the city where supernatural beings can be themselves. Like Anna Mouglalis, I believe that an unknown actor can bring this character to life on screen. Jack Savoretti, an English singer of Italian descent, has the looks and the voice that fits Lambert’s cool and collective persona perfectly.
