Plot summary
In The Last Witch Hunter, Vin Diesel plays a warrior named Kaulder, who is doomed to live forever after he killed the Witch Queen for unleashing the Black plague on humanity 800 years ago. Centuries later, he works as a witch hunter for the Axe and Cross organization, that maintains the truce between humans and witches.
His frequent companion, a priest who is the 36th Dolan, is replaced by his successor after his retirement and is killed soon after. Later, Kaulder discovers that he is alive and kept under a dark magic spell by the warlock Belial to help him bring the Queen back to life. Kaulder was unaware that the first Dolan had not destroyed the Queen's heart after she was killed, making it possible to revive her.
She plans to unleash another plague onto the world, with Kaulder determined to stop her. In the climax of The Last Witch Hunter, Kaulder vanquishes the Queen by stabbing her to death with his sword that is enriched by lightning. He then proceeds to destroy the heart to get completely rid of her, knowing that it will end his life too in the process.
However, his companion Chloe stops him, telling him that he needs to stay alive to defeat even more powerful evil forces awaiting him in the future.
