The Rasputin story is intrinsically tied to the Anastasia story and both are based of off revolutionary narratives following the Russian civil war.

Edit: Meant to say that because the Russian revolution was so propagandized, most of the info people believe about it is bullshit.

Anastasia survived as an amnesiac who was taught by a con-man to act like a Princess again but then slowly regains her memories before shattering the phylactery of Rasputin because Rasputin's incompetent bat familiar couldn't catch it.

You know. Once upon a deceeeeeeeemmmmmbeeeerrrrrrrrr!

I'll double check the finale right after I get a brand new VHS player to check the tapes. But I do admit that I'm working off of memory here, lol.

I may have missed him, since I never saw the movie, but I don't think I saw a bat in this sequence.
