I hope not, the film leaves it vauge, si I hope there's some possibility as to Miere saving her, but hey probably just wishfull thinking, but I hope he saved her.

Spoilers:
Charlotte is dead. Carmilla drunk so much blood from her, she was not able to recover. Meyer took her body to the stars for her last journey...
D says, flat out, that she's dead. He returns her ring to her father to claim his earnings and lets Meier keep the body. She also dies in the novel.

We can agree to disagree. Your difference of opinion does not automatically make other interpretations "wrong." I see the ending differently. Meier's intense (and honest) grief strongly supports the conclusion that Charlotte is dead. The hope that the movie ends with derives not so much from any real possibility for their continued relationship, but from Leila's very clear change of heart (which is inspired, in no small part, by the interaction she witnesses between Meier and Charlotte, as well as her own interaction with D). She's finally let go of her hate, her desire for vengeance, and can move forward to live a much fuller, happier life. When the rocket launches, our attention is not on Meier and Charlotte - it's on Leila, for whom the launch has become a welcome metaphor for escape.
sharetotally agree with this
shareThe movie flat out doesn't say. D says she is dead, but I always took it as him just saying that because he finally believed in Meyer and Charlotte.
I know you posted this awhile back and I missed it, but I would like to clarify my original point.
D says she is dead so he can collect the money because he believes in them. He doesn't think he needs to kill Meyer anymore. Now this can be for two reasons (IF she isn't dead, which she could be too) 1.) She is okay and he believes Meyer is a good enough vampire to take care of her or 2.) He sees she is dying and Meyer will have to change her to keep her alive. Which could explain Meyer's sadness at the end.
But to say the movie is explicit in the fate of Charolotte (or Meyer) is wrong. The director absolutely leaves room for interpretation.
Her blood was drained. There is no chance she's ok.
The fact that D says she's dead with no reason to lie is being explicit. Not everything is open to interpretation.
Can't stop the signal.
I would say If she didn't die, Meier (or Carmilla) made her a vampire, probably the reason D let them go.
Goth for LIFE!
If Meier would have made her a vampire D would probably have killed Meier and definetly have killed Charlotte, that was his mission after all, to bring her back alive or to kill her as painlessly as possible if she's turned. But since Charlotte was the mission and she was dead already the mission was over, so there was no point in fighting the noble anymore.
shareit has been some years since i have seen this, but i recall thinking that, yes, she is dead, but having a niggling doubt. i wondered whether she would somehow be resurrected in the city of the night, either as a vampire or a spirit, but would never again be the charlotte she once was, which was why her boyfriend was so grieved. i guess it was his determination to take her up to the stars that made me wonder if another existence awaited them both.
before we get started, does anyone want to get out?
