Lesbian Vampire Killers (2009) Timeline Explained – Every Event in Order

Jimmy is a direct descendant of Baron Wolfgang McLaren, the legendary vampire slayer who originally killed Carmilla centuries ago. The vicar recognizes this lineage early in the film, which is why he believes Jimmy might be the one destined to defeat the vampire queen. This ancestral connection also makes Jimmy essential to the vampires' plan, since his blood combined with a virgin girl's can resurrect Carmilla.

Foreshadowing: The vicar tells Jimmy he may be a descendant of a local vampire slayer when they first meet at the village pub.

The curse originated when Carmilla arrived in the village during a blood moon, killed all the men, and seduced the women. Since then, every female child born in the village automatically becomes a lesbian vampire on her 18th birthday. This is why Heidi, Anke, and Trudi all transform during the film.

Foreshadowing: The curse is revealed early when the group learns about the village legend at the cottage.

The vampires need Lotte because she is a virgin. According to the ancient legend, Carmilla can only be resurrected when the blood of the last McLaren (Jimmy) mixes with the blood of a virgin girl. This is why Eva specifically abducts Jimmy and Lotte together and brings them to Carmilla's tomb.

Foreshadowing: Lotte confesses to Fletch that she is a virgin and wants to sleep with Jimmy, making her the perfect sacrifice.

The Sword of Daeldo is the sacred weapon forged specifically for the vampire slayer Baron McLaren to use in his final confrontation with Carmilla. It is the only blade that can permanently destroy the vampire queen, as proven when McLaren originally killed her with it centuries ago. The sword is kept in Baron McLaren's tomb.

Foreshadowing: The vicar researches the vampire slayer who killed Carmilla and discovers the sword's location.

When Jimmy opens the door to confront the approaching vampires, he unknowingly commits the classic vampire mistake of inviting them inside. This is a fundamental vampire rule - vampires cannot enter a home without being explicitly invited. Once Jimmy says the invitation words, the vampires are able to breach the cottage's defenses.

Foreshadowing: The film establishes vampire mythology early on through the curse legend.

Judy appears at the cottage claiming to have followed Jimmy to the village, but she is actually already a vampire. She was likely turned sometime after breaking up with Jimmy, possibly as part of the vampires' plan to get closer to Jimmy (the last McLaren descendant). When she reveals her true nature, Jimmy and Fletch are forced to kill her.

Foreshadowing: Judy's arrival at the cottage seems suspicious given the remote location.

Rebecca, the vicar's daughter, has already been turned into a vampire by the time the vicar checks on her. When she attempts to seduce Fletch, the situation turns deadly. Fletch accidentally impales her on the Sword of Daeldo while defending himself, killing her. Fletch chooses not to tell the vicar the truth about how his daughter died.

Foreshadowing: The curse affects all women in the village on their 18th birthday, and Rebecca is of age.

The vicar sacrifices himself to allow Jimmy, Fletch, and Lotte to escape and reach the car where the Sword of Daeldo is stored. With the vampires blocking their path and Carmilla about to be fully resurrected, the vicar uses himself as a distraction so the others can complete their mission to kill the vampire queen.

Foreshadowing: The vicar has been preparing throughout the film, researching the slayer and arming himself.

Jimmy defeats Carmilla by throwing the Sword of Daeldo directly at her heart. With Fletch having been captured and Lotte about to be turned, Jimmy makes a desperate final attack, hurling the sacred blade with enough force to pierce Carmilla's heart and destroy her completely. This act breaks the curse and frees the village.

Foreshadowing: The group retrieves the sword from the baron's tomb specifically to use against Carmilla.

When Jimmy destroys Carmilla by piercing her heart with the Sword of Daeldo, the curse is broken. The film implies that women in the village will no longer automatically become vampires on their 18th birthday. The surviving trio (Jimmy, Fletch, and Lotte) drive away with the village freed from the supernatural threat.

Foreshadowing: The curse was directly tied to Carmilla's existence and power.

Fletch chooses not to reveal that he accidentally killed Rebecca with the Sword of Daeldo because he doesn't want to cause the vicar additional pain during an already devastating night. The vicar is already dealing with his daughter's transformation and the impending battle, so Fletch spares him the guilt of knowing how she actually died.

Foreshadowing: Rebecca's death happens quickly and unexpectedly during her attack on Fletch.

Lotte develops feelings for Jimmy throughout the chaotic night as they face danger together. When she confesses her love at Carmilla's tomb, it's a moment of emotional vulnerability amid the supernatural horror. Their shared ordeal and Jimmy's eventual heroic action to save her solidifies their bond.

Foreshadowing: Lotte confesses she is a virgin and wants to sleep with Jimmy before the major confrontations.
