片名：夜訪吸血鬼
你要我述說我的一生 So you want me to tell the story of my life.
我說道，我專門訪問人 Like I sad, that's what I do. l interview people.
找尋活生生的題材 I'm a collector of lives.
在三藩市調頻台播送 FM radio, KFRC.
我的故事需一袋的錄音帶 you'll need a lot of tape for my story.
沒問題，我有 No problem. I got a bag full of tape right here.
你跟蹤我？ you followed me here, didn't you?
算是吧 yeah, I suppose I did.
你看來很不一樣 you seemed very interesting.
你住這？ This is where you live?
不 No.
這只是個房間 it's just a room.
就現在開始，如何？ What do you say we get started?
你做什麼的 What do you do?
我是吸血鬼 I'm a vampire.
這倒新鮮 I haven't heard that before.
你是說真的 you mean this literally, I take it?
絕對 Absolutely.
我在那巷裡等你 I was waiting for you in that alley.
看你在注意我 Watching you watching me.
然後你說話了 And then you began to speak.
我真走運 What a lucky break for me.
或許我倆都走運 Perhaps lucky for both of us.
你說你在…等我 you said you were...waiting for me.
想幹嘛？殺我？吸我的血？ What were you gong to do? Kill me, drink my blood?
對 yes.
你現在不必擔心 But you needn't be concerned now.
你真以為自己是吸血鬼？ you really believe this, don't you, that you're a vampire?
這樣說下去會沒完沒了 We can't begin this way.
讓我先開燈 Let me turn on the light.
我以為吸血鬼怕光. 錯了 -l thought vampires didn't like light. -We love it.
我要讓你瞭解 I only wanted to prepare you.
天啊 Christ!
別怕 Don't be frightened.
我只想藉這機會 l want this opportunity.
你怎麼做的？ How the hell's you do that?
跟你一樣 The same as you do.
一連串簡單動作 A seres of simple gestures.
只是我動得太快讓你看不見 Only I moved too fast for you to see.
我是血肉之軀 I'm flesh and blood...
但不是人 ...but not human.
我這樣已經兩百年了 l haven't been human for 200 years.
請坐 Please....
該如何你才會放輕鬆？ How can I put you at ease?
你要我話說從頭嗎？ Shall we begin like ''David Copperfield?''
我出生, 我長大 ''l am born...l grew up.''
或從我自黑暗世界誕生開始 Or shall we begin when I was born to darkness, as I call it.
是該從那時開始講，你認為呢 That's where we should start, don't you think?
你沒騙我？ you're not lying, are you?
為什麼要騙你 Why should I lie?
事情發生在1791年 1791 was the year it happened.
我當時二十四歲 l was 24.
比你現在年輕 younger than you are now.
但時代不同，那時我已成人 But times were different then. l was a man at that age.
是紐奧良南部大農莊的主人 The master of a large plantation, just south of New Orleans.
我妻子死于難產 l had lost my wife in childbirth.
在她和嬰兒死後的半年左右 She and the infant had been burned less than half a year.
我恨不得隨他們同去 l would've been happy to join them.
失去他們令我痛苦萬分 l couldn't bear the pain of their loss.
我很想解脫 l longed to be released from it.
我想放棄一切 l wanted to lose it all:
我的財富… my wealth...
我的產業… ...my estate...
我的神智 ...my sanity.
一副牌幾張A？ How many aces are in a deck?
你說我作弊？ Are you calling me a cheat?
不，我說你是垃圾 No, I'm calling you a piece of stinking offal!
你沒種，動手啊 you lack the courage of your convection. Do it!
那時我一心只想死 Most of all, I longed for death.
現在回想起來 l know that now.
那時是我找上死神 l invited it.
助我從苦痛中解脫 A release from the pain of living.
我歡迎任何人來結束我 My invitation was open to anyone.
我身邊的妓女 To the whore at my side.
身後的皮條客 To the pimp that followed.
結果回應的是吸血鬼 But it was a vampire that accepted.
要錢要命 Give me your money or you die!
還想死嗎？ Do you still want death?
嘗夠滋味了吧 Or have you tasted enough?
夠了 Enough.
他把我留在密西西比河岸邊 He left me there, on the banks of the Mississippi
將我留在生與死之間 somewhere between life and death.
你是誰？ 你來幹嘛？ Who are you? What're you doing at my house?
我來實現你的心願 I've come to answer your prayers.
生命是沒有意義的 Life has no meaning anymore...does it?
酒色無味 The wine has no taste.
食之無趣 The food sickens you.
好像已沒必要再活下去 There seems no reason for any of it...does there?
如果我讓你一切從頭再來 What if I could give it back to you?
跳過痛苦的那一部份 Pluck out the pan...and give you another life?
走入另一個你想像不到的世界 One you could never mange.
如此一來… And it would be...
無論時間… ...for all time.
病痛… And sickness...
或死亡… ...and death...
都奈何不了你 ...could never touch you again.
別怕 Don't be afraid.
我會讓你擁有… I'm gong to give you the choice...
我不曾有過的選擇機會 ...l...never had.
那天早上我尚未變成吸血鬼 That morning, I was not yet a vampire...
是我最後一次看日出 ...and I saw my last sunrise.
我記得很清楚 l remember it completely...
以前的日出卻毫無印象 and yet I can't recall any sunrise before it.
最後一次享受燦爛的破曉 l watched the whole magnificence of the dawn for the last time...
彷彿初見般 ...as if it were the first.
我向陽光告別後 And then I sad farewell to sunlight...
就準備變成現在這樣 and set out to become...what I became.
向陽光告別了嗎？ Have you sad your good-byes to the light?
我已將你的血吸幹 I've darned you...to the point of death.
如果不理你 lf I leave you here...
你就會死, 或者 you die. Or...
你也可以永保青春 you can be young always, my friend...
像我現在這般 ...as we are now.
你一定要告訴我 But you must tell me...
肯不肯加入？ will you come...or no?
肯 yes.
你軀體將死 your body's dying.
不必在意 Pay no attention.
這是必經階段 it happens to us all.
看吧 Now look...
用吸血鬼的眼光看吧 with your vampire eyes.
你看見什麼？ What did you see?
言辭無法形容 No words can describe it.
正如仙界所見 Might as well ask heaven what it sees.
凡人難明 No human can know.
雕像似動未動 The statue seemed to move, but didn't.
世界似變卻又未變 The world had changed, yet stayed the same.
新生吸血鬼為夜色之美而泣 l was a newborn vampire, weeping at the beauty of the night.
要再抽根煙？ Perhaps you'd like another cigarette?
好，你不介意吧？ l would. it's not bothering you, isn't?
不介意 l don't assume it would.
我想你不會致癌而死 It's not like you'll die from cancer.
不會 l don't think so.
十字架怎麼樣？ -What about the crucifixes?
十字架？ -Crucifixes?
敢看嗎？ Yeah.Can you look at them?
我平日的消遣 Actually, I'm quite fond of looking at crucifixes.
怕不怕桃木穿心？ And the stake through the heart?
無稽之談 Nonsense.
棺材呢？ And coffins?
棺材 Coffins.
很遺憾，這是必需品 Coffins, unfortunately, are a necessity.
別擔心 Don't worry.
馬上你就會沉沉地睡去 Soon...you'll be sleeping as soundly as you've ever slept.
當你醒來 And when you awake...
我會在這等你 I'll be waiting for you...
全世界都在等你 and so will all the world.
我發現，血也是必需品 Blood, I was to find, was a necessity as well.
次夜醒來，我饑餓如餓 l awoke the next evening with a hunger I had never felt.
只要!嘗過這個 Once you taste this...
你就不會再去別家酒館 you'll never go to another tavern again.
真的？ you think so?
但我想!嘗的是你的唇 But what if I'd rather taste your lips?
我的唇更甜 My lips are even sweeter still.
我的朋友… My friend...
來!嘗這香唇 ...should taste those lips.
他的吻 is his...kiss...
是否比你更深情？ as deep...as yours?
更深情，親愛的 Deeper, ma chere.
我不願取她性命 l will not take her life.
我已幫你下了手 I've done it for you.
她已死 She's dead...
已是死屍，朋友 as a doornail, my friend.
人命如此脆弱，真讓人難過 it's so easy, you almost feel sorry for them.
你會習慣殺人，別再理會塵世 you'll get used to killing. Just forget about that mortal col.
你很快都將學會 you'll learn all too quickly.
你不餓嗎？ Are you not hungry,Sir?
恰恰相反 Quite the contrary, dear.
他可吃得下所有人 He could eat the whole colony.
我會吃完的，下去吧 l will finish it. Now leave us.
你不會裝嗎？傻子 Can't you pretend, you fool?
別讓人起疑心 Don't give the game away.
有這個家是我們的運氣 We're lucky to have such a home.
裝裝樣子，喝一點 Pretend to drink, at least.
此般美味別糟蹋了 Such fine crystal shouldn't go to waste.
我明白 l know.
血冷得真快 it gets cold so quickly.
可以如此活命嗎？ 只靠飲動物的血 We can live like this? On animal blood?
那不叫活命，只是生存 l wouldn't call it living. Call it surviving.
坐船渡洋的求生技巧 Useful trick if you're on a ship for a month.You see.
這世界充滿了… There's nothing in the world now that doesn't hold some...
眩爛 Fascination.
是的 yes.
我已厭倦這種瞎扯，我們可以不殺人，可以的 -I'm bored with this prattle. -We can live without killing.
一切都有可能 It's possible. Anything is possible.

年輕少女 A fresh young girl...
是他的開胃菜 was his favorite for the first of the evening.
其次，他挑俊美年輕人 For seconds, he preferred a gilded, beautiful youth.
他愛在上流社會找目標 But the snob in him loved to hunt in society.
貴族的血最令他振奮 The blood of the aristocrat thrilled him best of all.
要訣是別想太多事情 The trick is not to think about it.
看到沒？ you see that one?
那寡婦聖卡拉 Widow St. Clair.
她要那小可愛殺了她丈夫 She had that gorgeous young fop murder her husband.
你怎麼知道？ How do you know?
讀心術 Read her thoughts.

相同的是，活得越久越強 But one thing is true of everyone. We grow stronger as we go along.
相信我的話 Just take my word for it.
她嫁禍給奴隸 She blamed a slave for his murder.
想想那奴隸的下場 imagine what they did to him.

你很幸運 Consider yourself lucky.
巴黎的吸血鬼一定要很機靈 In Paris, a vampire must be clever for many reasons.
巴黎？ Paris?
在這只要一付利牙 Here all one needs is a par of fangs.
你從巴黎來？ you came from Paris?
和創造我者一樣 As did the one who made me.

我們改吃“法國菜” We can try some French...cuisine.
原諒我對生命仍有敬意 Forgive me if I have a lingering respect for life.
很快你就吃完雞了 you'll soon run out of chickens, Louis.
對不起 Monsieur Louis?
不想吃嗎？ you don't want any supper?
不想 No, dear.
我們很擔心你，主人 We're worried about you, Master.
你何時騎馬出去？ When do you go riding in the field?
你有多久沒去奴隸區？ And how long since you've been to the slave quarter?

閉嘴，路易 Shut up, Louis!
過來 Come on!
我們在哪？ Where are we?
你認為呢？我的白癡朋友 Where do you think, my dot friend?
我們在舒適骯髒的墓園裡 We're in a nice, filthy cemetery.
你高興了吧？ Are you happy?
是不是住得舒服多了？ is this fitting? Proper enough?
我們屬於地獄的 We belong in hell.
要是地獄不存在呢？ What if there is no hell?
萬一地獄不收容我們呢？ Or they don't want us there?
有想過嗎？ Ever think of that?
但真的有地獄 But there was a hell.
但真的有地獄, 不論往哪去，我仍身在其中 And no matter where we moved to, I was in it.
我們在紐奧良的岸邊住 We rented rooms on the waterfront of New Orleans.

別擔心 Don't worry.
我比她更會溫暖你 l can warm that cold skin of yours better than she can.
你真這麼認為？ Do you think so?
你已經咬了 Why...you're warm now!
但要付很大代價 But the price is high.
我把你朋友累死了 your pretty friend, I exhausted her.

你可以當是喝酒 you can pretend it's wine.
她還沒死 She's not dead!
你拋不開人性，你抗拒令你平靜的東西 you're in love with your mortal nature. you resist one thing can bring you peace.
平靜？ you call this peace?!
我們在掠奪這些惶恐人的性命 We're predators, whose all-seeing eyes give them detachment!
這女孩… 吸她，先止餓 -The girl, Lestat! -Take her! End that hunger!
不 No!
還不到時候 Now, my child.
你累了, 你需要睡眠 you're tired want to sleep!
這是具棺材 it's a coffin!
是棺材，讓我出去 A coffin! Let me out!
我沒死 I'm not dead!
是你的棺材，享受吧 it's your coffin, enjoy it.
別人沒這福氣享受 Most of us never get to know what it feels like.
你為何要這樣做？ Why do you do this?
我喜歡, 我高興 l like to do it. I enjoy it.
你面對現實吧 Take your aesthete's taste to purer things.
快點殺她，快動手 Kill them swiftly if you will, but do it!
不要質疑,你天生就是個殺手，路易 For do not doubt you are a killer, Louis!

你已是吸血鬼 you are what you are!
慈悲的殺人者 Merciful death.
你愛死你的罪行了 How you love your precious guilt.
她的血在我血管中無比甜美 Her blood coursed in my veins...sweeter than life itself.
勒士達的話沒錯 And, as it did, Lestat's words made sense to me.
殺人令我平靜 l knew peace only when I killed.
她紊亂的心跳令我感到平靜 When I heard her heart in that terrible rhythm, I knew what peace could be.
跟著老鼠屍體，就能找到你 All I need to find you, Louis, follow the corpses of rats.
你會覺得很痛苦 Pai n is terrible for you.
別的生物不懂這種痛苦 you feel it like no other creature,because you're a vampire.
你不想這樣下去 you don't want it to go on.
不希望 No.
那就順著你的本性去做 Then do what it is in your nature to do...
就像你對那孩子做的… ...and you will feel as you felt with that child in your arms.

就這樣 That's it. yes.
對
Stop!
不要吸了 Stop!
夠了 Enough!
我還要 l want some more.
你當然還要 Of course you want more.
慢慢來 Gently, chere.
他們好無辜 They're so innocent.
他們不該受折磨 They must not be made to suffer.
很好 Good.
好的，現在 yes. All right, now.
停 Stop.
夠了 That's enough, chere.
你要在他們心跳停止前住口 you must stop before the heart stops.
我還要 l want more. I know.
第一口最可口 But it's best in the beginning...
但千萬別喝死人血 lest the death takes you down with it.
你做得很好，看看你 you've done very well. Look at you.
一滴也沒浪費，非常好 Not a drop split. Very good.
媽呢？ Where is Mama?
媽媽 Mama

她們都上了天堂 They all go to heaven.
除了我們 All but us.
你想嚇壞我們女兒 Do you want to frighten our daughter?
我不是你們女兒 I'm not your daughter.
你是的 Oh, yes, you are.
你是我和路易的女兒 you're mine and Louis' daughter now.
路易想離開我們 you see, Louis was gong to leave us.
他要走的遠遠的 He was gong to go away.
但他現在不走了 But now he's not.
他要留下來，讓你快樂 Now he's gong to stay...and make you happy.
路易 Louis.
你這惡魔 you fend.
快樂全家福 One happy family.
他為了留你才這樣做 He did it to make you stay with him?
也許 Perhaps.
他瞭解我 He knew me.
他知道我會愛她勝過一切 He knew I would love her more than the waking world.
但不止如此 But there was more to it.
他也對她投下很多感情 He lavished affection on her, there is no doubt about that.
他這麼做或許因為他也寂寞 Perhaps, in the end, he did it because he was lonely too.
我要多點亮光, 她也需要亮光 -l need more light. -She needs more light.
若沒加燈，我會瞎掉 -I'll go blind without another lamp. -She'll go blind.
讓我白天再來幫這孩子試裝 Or let me ft this child during the day.
白天我有非常重要的事 Well, I am afraid, madame, that my days are sacrosanct.
她是個小女孩 A little child, she was.
也是個兇猛的殺手 But also a fierce killer...
可以毫不留情獵取她要的血 now capable of the ruthless pursuit of blood with all a child's demanding.
讓我親一下 Let me kiss it better.
真是的…
Now...
現在誰來幫你做衣服呢？ who will we get to finish your dress? Be practical!
記得！永遠別在家殺人 Remember, never in our home!
起先她跟我一起睡 She slept in my coffin at first...
小手指纏住我頭髮 curling her little fingers around my hair...
直至她想擁有自己的棺材 till the day when she wanted her own coffin.
但依然，當她一醒 But still, whenever she awoke...
她又會爬到我身邊 ...she would crawl into mine.
在她還未學會玩弄獵物前 他們死的很快 They died fast in those days, before she learned to play with them...
但她漸漸學會延長殺人的快感 to delay the moment till she had taken what she wanted.
小可憐
你為何哭？ Why are you crying, child?
你迷路了？ Are you lost, my love?
媽媽 Mama!
好了，別哭 Hush, now, don't cry.
我們會找到她的 We'll find her.
媽媽
注意拇指，那小節 Mind the thumb, girl. Mind the thumb. That little digit.
這些很貴的 They're expensive, my dear.
對你這種小女孩來說太貴了 Maybe too expensive for a young girl like you.
克勞蒂亞，我是怎麼跟你說的 Claude! What have we told you?!
絕不准在家裡 Never in the house.
讓點位置給我 Give me some room.
對我而言，她只是個小女孩 To me, she was a child.
但對勒士達，她是個洋娃娃 But to Lestat, a pupil...
有殺人天份的高材生 an infant prodigy with a lust for killing like his own.
他們倆人 Together
可取盡全家性命 they fished off whole families.
太好了，太好了 Wonderful, wonderful.
彈點比較尤鬱的 Now try something on a more somber note.
凡人的快樂時光易過 Time can pass quickly for mortals when they're happy.
我們也是如此 With us, it was the same.
歲月飛逝 The years flew by like minutes.
人事已非 The city grew.
汽船出現了 Sailboats gave way to steamships...
不同的人興事來來往往 disgorging an endless menu of magnificent strangers.
我們處在新世界裡 A new world had sprung up around us.
而且變成美國人 And we were all Americans now.
這些醜惡的人 This filthy modern tide!
我真是不屑一顧 What I wouldn't give for a drop of old-fashioned Creole blood!
老美不合你胃口 yo Yankees are not to your taste?
他們的民主思想不合我胃口 Their democratic flavor doesn't suit my palate, Louis.
這樣的人才有意思 Now that is pure Creole.
克勞蒂亞會弄到她 Trust Claude to have found her.
怎麼啦？ What?
你不想要她？ Don't you want her?
我想跟她一樣 l want to be her.
我能嗎？ Can l?
像她一樣？ Be like her one day?
無聊，你越來越像路易 More melancholy nonsense. you grow more like Louis daily!
你就快開始吃老鼠了 Soon you'll eat rats.
老鼠？你何時吃過老鼠？ Rats? When did you eat rats, Louis?
很久以前的事了 it was a long, long time ago.
在你出世前 Before you were born.
我不推薦你吃 And I don't recommend them.
過了三十年，她的身體依然未變 Thirty years had passed, yet her body remained that of an eternal child.
她的眼睛道出她的年齡 Her eyes alone told the story of her age
在她卷髮下渴尋答案 staring from under her curls...with a questioning that would one day need an answer.
又一個娃娃 Another doll.
我有好幾打，你不知道嗎？ l have dozens, you realize.
我以為你還想要 l thought you could use one more.
為何總在這一晚 Why always on this night?
什麼意思？ What do you mean?
你每年都在這晚送我娃娃 you always give me a doll on the same night of the year.
我倒沒注意 l didn't realize.
是我生日嗎？ is this my birthday?
你老把我扮成娃娃 you dress me like a doll.
你把我頭髮弄得像娃娃 you make my hair like a doll.
為什麼？ Why?
這些娃娃，好老舊 Some of these, Claude, are so old...
破爛 tattered.
該扔了 -you should throw them away.
我會的 -l will, then!
你做了什麼？ What have you done?
你教我的 What you told me to do!
你把屍體放在這腐爛 -you leave a corpse here to rot?
我要她 -l wanted her!

好豐富 it was rich...
好甜美 almost sweet...
像鄉村的茉莉、枚瑰花香 like the fragrance of jasmines and roses around our old courtyard.
我在街上循著這香味 l walked the streets savoring that long-lost perfume.
到了派坦尼亞街 And then on Prytana Street...
離拉法葉墓園只有幾條街 only blocks from the Lafayette cemetery.
我嗅到死亡的氣息 l caught the scent of death.
這不是從墳墓中傳出的 And it wasn't coming from the graves.
我愈走近氣味愈重 The scent grew stronger as I walked.
老舊的死亡氣味 Old death.
不是發自常人 A scent too faint for mortals to detect.
路易
很高興你來了 I'm so glad you are here!
我已經等了許久 I've dreamed...of this moment.
她不該變成吸血鬼的 She never should have been one of us.
那一切都過去了，勒士達 That's all past, Lestat.
是的
過去了 Past.
還是很美 Still beautiful, Louis.
你永遠是強者 you always were the strong one.
別害怕 Don't be frightened.
我不會傷你 I mean you no harm.
你回來找我？ you've come home to me then?
你記得我的樣子？ you remember how I was?
我吸血鬼的模樣？ The vampire...that I was?
我記得 yes, I remember.
沒人能拒絕我 No one...could refuse me...
連你都不能，路易 not even you.
我試過 l tried.
對，你試過 yes, you tried.
你越是抗拒 And the more you tried...
我愈想要你 the more I wanted you.
我不能忍受這光 l can't bear it.
這種光… Such lights...
這噪音 and that nose!
他們使夜晚變得比白畫還亮 They make the night brighter than the day.
是假的光 it's false light.
不會傷你的 it can't harm you.
你若陪我，路易 lf you stay with me, Louis...
我可以再出擊 l could venture out again.
變回從前的勒士達 Become the old Lestat.
我要走了 l must leave now.
勒士達的遭遇為何，我不清楚 Whatever happened to Lestat, I do not know.
我夜夜出現 l go on...night after night.
吸食我所遇到的人 l feed on those who cross my path.
但我熱情都已隨她的金髮消逝 But all my passion went with her golden hair.
只剩下一具軀殼 I'm a sprit of preternatural flesh.
孤立 Detached.
不變 Unchangeable.
空虛的 Empty.
空虛？ Empty?
就這樣？ That's it?
不能這樣收尾 No, it can't end like that.
但就是這樣 But it has.
沒什麼能再說的了 There's no more to tell.
一定還有 There must be more to tell.
你不懂你自己，你不空虛 you don't understand yourself. you're not empty.
我願付出一切換取你的魔力 What I wouldn't give to be like you, to have your power...
去見識你所接觸的 to see the things you have seen.
你沒專心聽 you weren't listening.
我有聽，你的故事太神奇了 l have been listening. your story is incredible. it's amazing.
隨你怎麼發表，盡力而為 -Do what you want with it. Give it to others. Learn what you can.
我只學到一件事 There's only one way I'll truly learn
你知道的 and you know it.
你帶我來此只有一個目的 you brought me here for a reason.
不是嗎？ Didn't you?
什麼目的？ What reason would that be?
你需要伴 you want a companion.
你需要興外界的連擊，就是我 you want a link to the outside world. That's me.
吸我吧，我也想要 Take me. That's what I want.
我拒絕如此結束 -God, I've failed again.
上帝，我又失敗了 -l refuse to let it end like this.
你沒失敗 you haven't filed.
上帝興此事無關 God has nothing to do with it.
願意嗎？不 Like this? no
願意作吸血鬼的食物嗎？ Do you like being food for the immortals?
你想死嗎？ 別 Do you like dying? Stop!
事情發生是在1791年 1791 was the year it happened.
我二十四歲，比你現在年輕 l was 24. younger than you are now.
但時代不同，我已是大人了 But times were different then.I was a man at that age.

很想下去陪她. 好題材 l would have been happy to join her.Good stuff.
我想我不需要介紹了吧 l assume I need no introduction.
我覺得好多了 l feel better already.
最重要是，我渴望死亡 Most of all, I longed for death.
我期待死亡 l invited it.
助我從苦痛中解脫 A release from the pan of living.
路易，路易，仍在哀號 Still whining.
聽到了嗎？ Heard enough?
我聽幾世紀了 l had to listen to that for centuries.
別怕 Don't be afraid.
我要給你一個抉擇 I'm gong to give you the choice...
