Marcus!
No! Colin!
A warrior came to us without a clan.
He fought for us, he died for us.
He lived as a stranger, but in death he is a Highlander.
From today onward, he shall be known as our brother Colin MacLeod of Clan MacLeod.
After a century of terrorism and global warming,
the earth has fallen into chaos and decay.
Nations have been replaced by city states, armed
fortresses ruled by would-be kings and demagogues.
Life is cheap and death comes easy...
save for some.
The immortals that live among us...
For them, death comes only when you take their heads.
This is the story of one immortal...
Colin MacLeod.
And his everlasting search for vengeance.
Don't you ever quit?
Get lost!
You're the one who's lost!
Who the fuck are you?
I'm looking for someone.
Who's this?
Fresh meat.
You got balls!
But no brains.
I... am Malike.
Have you come to take my head and collect the reward?
You're not who I want.
Ain't that a shame?
'Cos I'm the one you got.
No one has to die today.
Don't... Run!
Get it! Do it!
I've lived a thousand years boy.
I've killed a hundred like you.
And, there can be only one!
Time to die!
Kill him!
No, this can't be!
W-Who are you?
Colin MacLeod...
of the Clan MacLeod!
Beautiful.
But not perfect.
Just like this city...
A quickening! An immortal has lost his head.
Feeling better?
Take it easy. His power must have really turned you on.
Shut up, Amergan!
You're lucky I'm already dead, or that could have killed me.
You're trespassing!
Your address citizen of the city with the travel pass or you're dead.
Which is it?
Careful, pal.
Check him!
What's in the bag?
Oh, what?! Damn!
I'll take my money.
Malike's killer has come to collect his reward.
What do you think?
About the sculpture or Malike's killer?
Here's you money. Now you have to come with me.
Why?
Our commander wants to thank you, personally.
Tell him to write me a letter.
I have my orders.
Discretion is the better part of the fellow.
Buzz off.
What happened here?
The virus killed most of them.
Floods, pollution and bad genetic engineering did the rest.
The virus kill rate is about 80%.
You wanna keep your ass safe, you'll get vaccinated.
Not my problem.
This is fine. I'll get out here.
Ah, yeah? But this isn't a cab friend.
I'm not your friend.
Yeah?
Maybe you'd rather be dead.
Fuck you!
Man, who're you?
I'm Joe and around here I'm the man.
Whatever you need, I got.
Food, clean water, a woman...
Whisky...
Hey, that's easy.
Rudy's bar, down by the peer.
Look for the cow's head.
Just tell him Joe sent you.
Wow, thanks a lot!
Hey, what's your name anyways?
Colin.
Who is he?
Did you see who is that guy? Nothing from up here.
Did you see that?
He kicked their asses...
and he gave me 100 bucks.
Huh, useless...
Just useless.
Dahlia?
All the money in the world won't save you from the virus.
Just leave the bottle, pal.
Yo, Dahlia. You're late.
Not today.
You got two choices:
You can give it up, or I can take it.
That's a good girl.
No!
You got two choices Freddy.
You can leave now, or you can carry your little friend home in a paper cup.
YOU!
Go home Freddy!
Whatever!
Thanks.
How's business'?
It sucks! We are losing ground.
Yeah, I hear ya.
If someone doesn't give, and soon already, then we're all dead.
Hey, you don't need that.
All you need is me.
What did you say?
I say don't need that.
All you need is me.
And if you need more of an invitation than that...
you're not the man I thought you were.
Hoi, to our fearless leader!
Who has less trouble conquering Romans...
then he does with his wife!
That'|| be enough of that.
To freedom!
TO FREEDOOOM!!!
To glory!
TO GLOOORYYY!!!
In the name of honour!
HONOOOUUUR!!!!
Now we have our own business to take care of.
Ah, do we now?
We do.
As the gods hear my witness...
| will love no other till the day I die.
Which will be tomorrow.
What...
Marcus Octavius leads 2000 legionnaires.
You lead 400.
You have no chance.
Well, then how about giving me a proper farewell?
You think this is a joke?
When my father chose you to lead us, it was not supposed to be to our deaths.
You think he'd want us to run?
He'd want us to live.
Live yes, but not as slaves.
He'd never want us to live as slaves.
Moya, our lives are a small price to pay for our honour.
Then let us drink to our victory.
To victory!
I love you.
You are my life.
Colin...
Moya...
L.-
M-M0ya...!
Forgive me.
What's your business woman?
The name is Moya and my business is with Marcus Octavius...
and not his watchdog.
I could rape and kill you and no one will care.
That's enough!
Yes sir!
Do you read, Maya'?
No.
Pity.
There are things men have written of such beauty and wisdom.
So, beauty and wisdom, can they tell me why Rome must destroy my people?
Because it is the way of nature.
We are the superior civilization.
One day, the entire world, will know the peace of Rome.
You Romans, you talk of peace when all you do is kill.
I know you're not here just to insult me.
I am here to beg for the lives of my people.
Generally, such requests are accompanied by tribute.
Truly a gift from the gods.
And, my people?
They're already destroyed.
Our destiny must be served.
Then, serve this...
It can't be!
Such a waste.
I could've given you Rome.
But now, you will watch everything you love...
die tonight.
No, no!!
Attack! Attack!!
God, give me strength.
To Colin!
No, Moyaaaaa!
Moya, it's me.
Do you hear me? Oh god, come back.
Colin...
Moya.
Hey, you're alive.
Oh, the gods be praised.
Oh Moya, I have to get you out of here.
Colin, swear...
Colin, you must swear to me you will not seek revenge.
It will only bring you death.
No.
Colin...
Swear to me.
I swear.
Oh Colin, I love you...
I swear! I swear they will pay for this.
I will avenge you all.
I told you don't need that.
What you need is me.
Huh?
Huh, what?
Nothing, just go away.
Look Mister, I saw what you did on the street, okay?
They'll be coming back, dozens of 'em.
You wanna live, come with me.
All right, trust me or don't trust me.
You're the one who'll be dead.
Hey Mister, sounds like you better trust someone.
This will only take a minute.
You think anyone is listening?
I take you don't believe in God.
Take a look around. If there is one, he's an uncaring sadistic bastard.
Don't blame God.
Global warming, war, pollution...
If it looks like hell to you, we did it to ourselves.
Hey, if we could get rid of the bastard that controls the city...
we might have a chance.
Please do not stop until you reach your destination...
Terrorist incidents have dropped 15% in the last quarter.
Pacification is almost complete.
Next on the agenda, city expansion to 14th Street.
As you will note, we are on schedule.
Here are our latest qualifications pending your approval.
I'll look at these later.
Commander, was there something you wanted?
Where are we?
I trust we are still on track.
I understand sir.
However, in a chemical reaction of this complexity there are variables...
that the less understood and controlled could lead to catastrophe.
You have until the end of the day.
But, sir...
I was a little slow today.
Sorry.
Ah, but the stroke was perfect.
And you... are perfect.
But I was nothing... till you found me.
Remember?
Of course.
Are you... God?
Close enough.
You are immortal.
You will serve me for eternity.
Besides, you really are much too beautiful to kill.
Show me your gratitude.
What is it?
Commander, Malike's killer has escaped.
Well, find him.
Kill him if you have to but I want his head attached to his shoulders.
Yes, sir.
Should I help them?
No, this is more important.
Come on, this way.
It's a secret entrance.
Soldiers can't track us down here.
Welcome to our world.
I'm still hungry.
Sorry, we're out of it. More's coming in tomorrow.
We still have soup.
I hate rat soup.
Next.
Your call.
You got my stud?
Yeah, you got it.
Why do you live down here?
Only the obedient assholes live in the tower.
And they own the whole damn city.
Those bastards also control the vaccine.
Fewer get sick underground. It betters our chances.
Dahlia!
You're back.
Doc, how's Cerul doing?
Not good.
Without vaccine...
she doesn't have a chance.
The virus is killing her.
This is the guy all the commotion's about?
That's him.
Home.
Come on in.
Scotch, gin, bourbon...
Help yourself.
Why did you bring me here?
Can't you guess?
Most of my customers look like Freddy.
Let's just say...
|'|| give you the house discount.
Why don't you take it easy?
You don't seem like the shy type.
You like what you see?
Come on, it's free. Whatever you want...
Why don't you tell me the real reason why I'm here?
No big deal. I just need a little help.
Yeah, right.
Hey, wait. I need your help.
Will you just hold on a minute?
I want you to help me break into the tower and steal some vaccine.
We lost our source inside. They killed him.
People are dying. Don't you care?
No, I don't.
Wait!
Wow, that didn't work.
This is all it takes.
Now, let us build our perfect world together.
Yo! Hey!
I will make your dreams come true.
Please, just stop.
All in a world of safety, beauty and prosperity. I got money, I can pay you.
Your obedience is all it takes.
Marcus! Come, let us build our perfect world together.
What?! Don't tell me you know him?
He's the asshole that owns us.
What is this?
Hey, on your feet, dog!
Who're you?
Get up!
Bring him to me.
Why have you come here?
Answer me!
You crucified Moya!
Moya...
What a pity to waste such beauty.
She was yours then?
I'll tell you what... Kill me and you live.
Cut him loose.
I'll do it!
Leave him!
He's mine.
He lies on holy ground.
You are a lucky bastard!
Well... it took you long enough.
Are you a sorcerer?
No.
No, I'm just a spirit.
I was once a druid priest and I was called Amergan.
Where are you going?
To kill a Roman.
Aren't you at least mildly curious as to why you still live?
I'm healed!
You, my friend, are immortal. You will live forever.
Unless someone cuts off your head.
Oh, and I'd lay down that sword if I were you.
Well, if I'm immortal then what have I got to worry about?
Pain.
Pain still hurts.
Are we ready to listen?
We have much to discuss.
You have been given a rare gift.
You will live to see civilizations rise and fall.
You will know a thousand joys...
and a thousand heartaches.
My friend... the Romans have gone.
What?!
Gone where?
There are other immortals like yourself.
When they draw close you'll feel them just like you felt Marcus.
Where is he?! Tell me, tell me!!
He will take your head and your quickening.
Where is Marcus?!
He was part of your mortal life.
That life is over.
It'll be over when he's dead.
Your life has just begun.
Why are you in such a hurry to die?
NOOOOO!!!!
Holy shit!
Where is he?
What?
What's with you?
Where is he?
He's up there.
Forget about it, okay? Security is too tight.
And half the army is looking for you ass.
Unless you know how to get in...
like I do.
Now remember our deal...
I get you in and you help me get the vaccine.
Once I have it, do what you want.
Joe!
Huh, what the hell are you doing here?
Sarah's dying. I'm going with you.
No, you're not kid.
You'll just be in the way.
Joe, no one's ever made it.
Doc was lucky 0k? Only lost his leg.
My choice.
Keep quiet.
What, what the...?
Oh, shit!
It's off.
Run, right now!
I'm sorry about the watch!
Forget it, run!
This way!
Dahlia!
Oh, man...
Come on, this way.
You sure you know where we're going?
Yeah, the city's right above us.
It should be right...
there.
Bad timing.
Just stay put and...
Wow, he's amazing.
Yeah... but not very subtle. Let's keep moving.
Here goes nothing!
Nobody moves!
If you wanna live, put your hands behind your heads!
Do it!
What exactly do you think you're doing?
We're here for the vaccine.
Where is it?
No! No!! I'll do what you want!
For God's sake stop firing!
Did we lose viral containment?
No, sir! We're safe!
All sensors are negative.
What was that about?
What?
This is gotta be it! I found it! It's the vaccine!
Put it in here!
I got it.
Hey! What's in there?
You said it was "viral"...
Why is there virus in there?
Don't! You do that... and everyone within 50 miles dies...
Oh, it's perfection...
a perfect virus with a contagion and kill rate of 100%.
What the hell is it doing down here?!
No... it can't be...
Son of a bitch! You've been making it all along, right here...
You've been making us sick! Killing us!
I was under orders...
Why?! How could you do that?
Because... this is how it is... in Rome.
This isn't fucking Rome! This is New York!
It seems... that the security is aware of your presence.
Now drop your weap...
We're outta here!
I'm ready, let's go!
What now?!
Dahlia!
Shit! Run!!
Why is he going?
I don't know!
Wait! Colin!
Colin!
Don't go...
Don't leave us!
You've never been that bright.
How many women are you going to run away from?
Friends? Lovers? They mean nothing!
You live only for your vengeance...
Marcus!
I see you've been busy!
It took you long enough...
Persia, Gaul, Egypt...
I go wherever my empire needs me.
Your empire dies today.
No... No, it will never die... in here.
Rome is more... more than princes, and palaces.
Is a thought, an ideal, a vision of beauty, order and peace.
My destiny is to create it again, in all its perfection.
Not if you're dead!
It is you, my friend, who are dead.
Here. Just open your eyes.
Barbarian.
This is your destiny.
There can be only one.
All you knew was your hate for Marcus...
a|| you had was your quest for revenge...
wasting centuries of life on a useless journey...
that can only end in your death.
Marcus!
No! Colin!
A warrior came to us without a clan...
"without a name..."
He fought for us, he died for us.
He lived as a stranger, but in death he is a Highlander.
From today onward, he shall be known...
as our brother Colin MacLeod of Clan MacLeod.
Ho“.!
When you did find a place to call your home...
and a woman who loved you...
What did you do?
I see him! This way!
Get out of the way, Deborah!
The demon must be destroyed!
You'll have to kill me first!
Are you mad girl?
You're in the way, Deborah!
Leave me Deborah...
this is my fight.
No, it's mine... I love you! No!
Kill him now!
Leave him be! Leave him! No!
Colin!
Enough!
You'll not do this man any harm.
But Gregor... he's a demon!
We saw him dead! Yet now he lives!
He's the devil!
I don't know what could have brought him back to life...
but he fought at our side and helped bring us a great victory.
Look at his eyes...
There is no evil there!
Only sadness!
Then you will not raise your hands against him.
He has bewitched you!
He must die! He must die!
Here I swear on my honour... that so will you!
Go.
But... never forget...
that you are Colin MacLeod of Clan MacLeod.
Live with honour, Highlander.
Colin!
Did Deborah's love or Greg0r's faith change you?
Did you live with honour?
No. Because honour was not what you wanted.
For over a thousand years, it was only...
NGHQGGFICG.
Marcus!
Fire! Fire!!
You died again and again...
with no thought of what you could have been...
or what you could have done.
Well, that'|| at least get you an A for the effort!
Hmm... Holy ground...
Why don't you just give up before you luck runs out?
I loved Moya... and you killed her!
I loved Rome... things die...
It is the way of life.
A|| we can do is try to find a reason to go on.
Build it again.
I have found mine.
Why don't you find something?
Mine is to bury you!
I wonder... who is the bigger fool?
So here we go again.
You must really enjoy getting your ass kicked...
you do it so often.
Shit!
Dahlia! Hurry!
It's closing!
I knew it was you.
He's my guest.
You're looking well, old friend.
You are the same pitiful savage you have always been.
That will hurt...
Oh, shit!
Holy shit!!
Colin! Keep going!
Come on, let's go! He's dead!
Get the vaccine to Doc, and tell him about the virus.
What are you waiting for?!
I'm outta here!
Colin!
What?!
Jesus!
You were dead, weren't you?!
Y-Yeah... I was..
But it's not... the first time.
Huh, you expect me to believe that you ran out on us because...
you and Marcus are both immortal?
And you've been chasing him all this time...
for revenge...
a|| this time?
Yeah.
Because he killed your wife, two thousand years ago...
Two thousand years!
I think you're out of your fucking mind!
I'm getting tired of this crap!
Go... but...
Two thousand fucking years!
So much grief!
So much hate!
You've had so much pain...
You must have really loved her!
That was very impressive... NOT!
At least you're consistent.
Where am I?
Inside... inside your own head!
Pretty empty, huh?
Remember this place?
Or have you forgotten her like you forgot your promise?
So, what would Moya think of you now?
Moya is gone.
Uh, you think?
This is her grave.
I've met trees with more brains!
You think that she was only of the body?
That dust is all she has become...
but her soul, her essence is eternal.
She was meant to meet you again.
And she had found you throughout time.
But you staggered around blind and stupid...
unable to see, unable to love...
so full of anger and rage.
You've lost your reason, your promise!
You're full of shit!
Am |?
Open your eyes! Don't you see?
Don't you get it?
Moya, Deborah, Dahlia... are the same woman.
Colin...
Mow».!
It's me...
Dahlia saved your butt!
Welcome back!
About five minutes ago you had six broken ribs...
three crushed vertebrae, and you were bleeding out from a ruptured spleen...
now you're not!
There he is!
It's him!
He's really alive...
I'm used to people running from me, like I was the devil.
Hmm, what you are doesn't matter.
You not only helped bring the vaccine...
you've brought them something much more important.
You've brought them hope.
They now believe that anything is possible.
And so do I.
Doc, tell me you're not thinking of going to war with the city...
I'm tired of hiding in sewers...
waiting for the day they kill us all.
Are you out of your mind?! He has an army! You have no chance.
You have no chance.
We have no choice.
Doc!
Listen up, everyone.
Today we have learned the truth...
this virus has one purpose.
To kill us all. I say we fight!
Who fights with me?
We got no choice, let's take back our city!
Tell all your friends: tomorrow, we take back our city!
Tomorrow, we take back our lives!
Colin!
You'll fight with us, right?
It's our war, it's not his problem.
But...
To glory!
TO GLORYYYY!!!
In the name of honour!
HONOOOUR!!!
It was all going so well.
Now you say it's useless...
What am I going to do with you?
Not... useless... just not perfect.
Until we can control it, to use it is madness... it could kill us all.
I just need a little time.
Which, sadly, you do not have.
You're done.
What do you mean... done?
Done... means done!
They won't like that we created the virus...
I think it's time for a little creative brutality.
Go!
Yes sir!
What about MacLeod?
Don't bother looking for him. He'll be back.
Come in.
I never thanked you for carrying me out of there.
Forget it.
If you die... you won't be coming back.
Sometime dying's easier than living.
Seems like my whole life I've been fighting.
If I die, and we win... that's good enough for me.
Every day, at church, I pray for it.
I know you don't believe...
but I'm sure God's been listening.
He has to be.
Because He answered one of my prayers.
Colin... I was praying... for you.
Hey, where's Dahlia?
We're letting her sleep.
So much for the element of surprise...
Come on, tough shit on us! It's now or never!
Rudy's right... but there's only way you can really win...
Marcus has to die.
Can you hold out long enough?
What are your chances of killing him?
Best you not know...
Right... same here.
Colin! There's another way into the city...
but you'd have to be crazy to try!
Show me.
Come on baby... come to papa...
Wait and you'll see what daddy's got for you...
A little more...
That's it!
What the...
UP 'there!
Keep firing!
Run!
Colin...
Motherfucker!!!
This is it...
Right through there...
Let's fall back!
I told you had to be crazy.
But this is the only way to get up there.
Thanks.
I'll take it from here.
Hey Colin! Kick his ass...
You can't hide from me, cutie!
Oh baby... that must hurt...
Dahlia!
Just do what you gotta do and get your ass back to me!
Dahlia! Be careful!
What a bang!
Who's the man?
You're the man!
Let's finish this.
You got it.
C'm0n, it's time to kick some ass!
There's the signal!
Let's do it!
Fire!
The more things change...
the more they stay the same.
Right? Just like now...
You were there.
Are you responsible for this?
No. But you are.
Their battle, my battle...
it will only end with your death!
Barbarians will always be barbarians.
If I can't control them, or tame them...
| might as well start all over again.
What are you doing?
Isn't it obvious?
I'm going to kill everything in New York.
You're insane!
In two minutes the virus flies...
Can you stop it?
No... time to waste it.
As I said...
everything dies.
My new world begins!
Oh no...
Virus!
How does that feel?
Don't worry your pretty head about it...
you won't be alone.
Everyone dies today.
Except... for Marcus and me.
I think... I'll take...
you with me!
Colin... I will see you again...
one day...
Dahlia!
In another time...
God...
help me...
for them, for her...
Back so soon?
This time I take your head.
There can be only one!
So? Big shot... you finally won.
Too late.
For everything.
No, it wasn't.
You saved the city. The quickening wiped out the virus.
I do pity that poor girl.
At least her prayers were heard.
Take heart my old friend...
What is lost shall one day be found.
Catch you later, Colin.
I hope you found peace.
