Theme: Immortality

Immortality concerns people who lead much longer than usual lifespans, do not age or die and/or have found methods to extend a regular lifespan. For methods where people find the ability to restore youth see Rejuvenation.

The quest for immortality is something that preoccupies a number of screen Mad Scientists and occultists – frequent plots in films concern quests for treatments, formulas and magical items that offer immortality (or the means to sustain it). Immortality is possessed by Vampires and some alien species. It is occasionally bestowed on individuals by some type of Curse.

There is also a body of films dealing with the lives of immortals. One of the problems is seen as the immortal having become bored with life, having experienced every passion and seen every sight, or of seeing the mortals they love age and die, and that they are seeking an end to such existence. Frequently such immortals have also experienced much of history and met many famous persons or even been those persons.

There is also a body of films about immortals engaged in wars with one another across the ages, most notedly the Highlander films and tv series. There are also a variety of immortal superheroes and super-villains and others that have been left as guardians for some purpose.
