to benefit

an ambitious senior resident.

That's what it's about!

What are you talking about?

Huh?

I am going down there

to get a spinal sample.

Your shift starts in 6 hours.

"I've seen salmonella patients

that were much worse.

"It could be a common cold. "

I am going down there.

What makes you think

they'll let you do your tests?

I called

Bucharest University Hospital.

That wasn't very smart.

You could get fired.

To hell with it!

- If this is half as bad as I fear...

- You mean "hope for".

Come on!

I think you're doing

the right thing.

Something didn't add up right

with that guy.

That's why I'm going.

What are you doing?

What are you doing?

I'm going with you.

I have an appointment

with the Dr. Angelescu.

We're looking for Dr. Angelescu.

Jesus Christ, look at that.

It's torched.

I'll wait for you in the lobby.

Why?

I feel like a tourist here.

- I'll be a half hour. Okay?

- Of course.

Dr. Angelescu?

Soren Rastauw, we spoke on the phone

this morning...

about the dead man.

I know.

Welcome.

Take a seat.

Has there been a fire,

some burning, or what?

Yes, a fire. Some crazy idiot

tried to burn down the place.

You won't understand it,

but some pictures are interesting.

This is the boy with the same

symptoms as the man in Copenhagen?

Looks like the same thing.

Where is the boy now?

Buried.

These marks here

look like some kind of bite.

Yes, the boy was bitten

by a dog.

His parents brought the boy here

and, well...

What about his condition

when he got here?

Fine, fine...

He's had a shock and his...

- Bite?

- Bite, yes... It was fine.

Then, what happened?

During the power cut,

his condition became worse

and worsened, and he died.

Power cut?

Power cut, yes.

Electricity...

Happens all the time here.

What do you think?

Some sort of rabies?

Don't think so.

The dog... Did you run any tests?

The dog?

This is a hospital for humans,

not a research center.

I'm happy if I have penicillin.

Understand?

Take the elevator

and follow the signs.

I'll write the Romanian word

for what you name "morgue"...

And the name of the man

you're looking for.

Keep the file.

Keep the pen.

I have a pen, thank you.

So... thank you, anyway.

Wait a minute, morgue...?

Excuse me...

I'm Soren Rastauw, from Denmark,

I'm a doctor.

I've had an appointment

with Angelescu.

Could you help me?

This man, here...

Where is he?

'Cause I need a spinal sample

from this man.

Crematorium...

I don't believe this...

I don't f***ing believe this.

When?

Forget it. Just shut up.

Can you show me?

Just show me.

Damn it!

I'm looking for...

Vasili Eunescu.

The key is over there.

There. Sorry, it's my first day.

He's on his way up.

Roger that.

It's been awhile, huh?

What's going on?

He's going down.

He's going down!

He got off on first floor!

The rooms.

Now!

Police!

Damn it, Jensen! Watch out!

Towards the square!

- Did you see him?

- No.

- One man in each direction.

- No, two and two.

There's not enough of us.

Two and two, Jensen.

We're going home alive. Move it!

Take the east side.

Good God!

What is it you're hoping to find?

What I'm hoping to find?

I have no idea.

The guy's dust.

I'm just trying to keep

an open mind.

I think you're being arrogant.

You want to disturb a family who

lost their child just 2 days ago.

You're too emotional.

You're not compassionate enough.

Got the map?

My name is Soren Rastauw.

I'm a doctor, I come from Denmark.

You don't speak English?

Nikolai...

I know.

What do you want?

I spoke to Dr. Angelescu

from the Hospital of Bucharest

about Nikolai.

Nikolai is dead.

One moment, please.

- Yes, please.

- I'm really sorry.

But I have a few questions

and it's very important.

So I ask for your help.

- You understand?

- Yes.

Follow me.

Do you raise dogs?

Raise? No.

Just a minute, please.

Look at that.

They buried him in the arbor.

Probably an orthodox tradition.

There is nothing to see here.

I know it's a very hard time for you

and I'm really sory

but I need to have some information.

If I get it,

I can save other people's life.

Who cares?

I do.

Our boy is dead.

- Understand?

- I understand.

What about the dog, please?

What happened to it?

Did it show any symptoms of illness?

I shot and burnt it.

It was not a dog,

it was something else.

Maybe it was a beast.

Now leave me alone.

Leave me alone!

I only have a few questions.

Sh*t...

Are you okay?

Vincent Monreau.

He has my gun.

He's a priest.

Lars, let's get a bulletin out.

Get the lab people out here

and then come back.

A priest...

And a chemisty student!

Move back,

I'll show you something.

Mixed with water.

Imagine a larger amount

mixed with gasoline.

What does it say?

"Stella Mala. "

Look at this!

Never seen a red moon before?

Volcanic dust in the stratosphere

creates the illusion of a red moon.

Bentzon.

Jensen.

We don't see the authorities much.

We could use your help with this.

Tracking

an intergalactic crime ring?

Stella Mala!

It means "Evil star" in Latin.

We don't believe in it.

Believe in what?

Stella Mala.

We know it is a supernova.

A supernova is a star about to die.

A sun about to be extinguished.

Just before it dies, it flares up

in a great flash of light.

What is it you don't believe in?

Astrologists believe in Stella Mala.

The Evil star.

The opposite

of the star of Bethlehem.

The opposite?

The birth of Satan instead of Jesus.

The pentagram.

The symbol of Satan.

Stella Mala appeared in the sky

a couple of weeks ago.

Astrologers and charlatans

believe Satan's son

was born at that time.

They see the star

as a sign of his birth.

Common superstition

combined with the new millenium.

The same thing happened in 999.

History books mention

red moons,

but we're still here, right?

The scientific explanation,

on the other hand, is very simple.

Stella Mala

existed for millions of years

before we discovered it.

Only after it became a supernova

was it visible to our telescopes.

How do you get these star charts?

Just a moment.

"The Astrology Handbook

for the Occultist".

We can't help ourselves.

A real page-turner.

Vincent Monreau.

Dog bites boy.

Boy infects male nurse and dies.

The male nurse is found dead

in Denmark

in a parking garage.

I'm freezing.

How cold can it be?

15 degrees, tops.

I don't know where the hell I am.

Where are we?

What is it?

The dog was cremated,

the man was cremated.

But the boy was buried,

and it's 15 degrees outside.

You can't be serious.

He might just as well

be in the morgue.

His blood cells are intact.

Forget it. They're in mourning.

They'll never allow it.

Soren!

He was just buried.

The earth is still loose,

it would only take a half hour.

He is dead and buried.

No one will know.

- We'll have to live with it.

- Exactly!

You're sick.

You hear me? You're sick.

Try to repeat after me:

"I'm going back

to that grieving family

"to dig up their beloved little boy
