"Wait!" "Stop!" "Please wait!" "Stop!" "Is anyone home?" "Is there anyone home?" "Can I come in?" "Please, I am a foreigner." "And I'm lost." "I know someone's there." "Hello?" "Please, I need help." "This is completely new for me, professor." "I simply can't imagine how a expert on insects could be so helpful for the police." "Would you please explain that more detailled." "Of course." "You can't see the connections on first sight." "When I decided to specialize in animal cadavers, I did not have the least idea of that." "John, do I really have to listen to that again?" "Oh yes, just as you had to on the first murder case." "You came to me because you did not know how to go on." "We solved the case together." "When a dead body is exposed to nature it will be eaten by insects sooner or later." "You naughty girl.." "Where did you find that?" "You could hurt yourself." "It is sharp." "It is not a toy." "Outside?" "And who, may I ask, put it out there?" "Don't you ever play with this again." "I forgot to introduce you...this is Inga." "She's my nurse." "If I pick out something with my laser she'll bring it to me." "She's also my friend, too." "Aren't you?" "But she is a very good nurse." "Cadaver-eating insects are divided into eight groups." "These eight groups of insects come to the corpse one after the other." "And this only in certain moments and at a precise time." "Never sooner and never later." "We call them the eight squadrons of death." "First, the common fly comes to the rotting corpse and lays its eggs." "This is the beginnig of the cycle." "Each group of insects stays for exactly fifteen days." "So, you have to multiply fifteen by eight." "The number of groups." "This equals four months." "Correct." "In this case the cycle seems to be complete." "Yet, it is already in the second generation." "From this we may conclude that this head is rotting for eight months." "By calculating and determining the number, the look and the kind of the insects, you can find out the exact date of death." "or of the murder." "So our victim was decapitated some 8 month ago." "And 15 days." "You must not forget, that the body was on the bottom of the lake for fifteen days." "Before the gases which result from decomposition brought it to the surface." "Where the first flies were already waiting." "Exactly eight and a half months." "Perhaps less." "It was extraordinary warm then." "However, I may assume that the person was decapitated between the 7th and the 10th." "Is that correct?" "Let's think about it." "The first girl disappeard on September 9." "A sixteen-year-old tourist from Denmark." "The body was never found." "Same as with the others." "It is not nice." "Like Greta." "Poor Greta." "She is also on the list." "She is missing but we have no proof that she is dead." "After finding this what's the use of hiding from the facts." "There is a killer." "A vicious killer." "We'll get him." "Someone has to catch this monster." "Good night, professor." "Do you know this part of the country?" "No, this is my first trip to europe." "People call it the "Swiss Transylvania"." "Why?" " I don't know." "They just do." "So, you are the Corvino girl!" "Your father is terribly..." " Yes, he is." "I admire him very much." "I thought he might have come with you." "No, he is working in the Philippines." "He'll be there for almost a year." "He can't even be reached by telephone." "Well in any case." "He has placed you in good hands." "You know I'm sure you are going to like our school." "To begin with, we all speak english." "And the our academic program is based on the american one." "Ah...a bee..." "Be carefull it may sting you." "No!" "Leave it alone!" "Don't kill her." "It won't hurt me." "Insects never hurt me." "I love them." "You...you love them?" "Yes, I love all insects." "If you mean..." "Now Jennifer has arrived." "And the first night will come." "A night she'll never forget." "Take her baggage." "It is beautiful, isn't it?" "The estate was once Richard Wagner's." "The school is occupied in the main building." "The others are closed because they are not safe." "Never go in there." "Come on." "I'm starved." "You got anythin to eat?" "No, sorry." "I haven't eaten for two days now." "What is that?" "Baby food." "My parents left it when they visited me with my little brother." "He's seven months old." "I bet he is the only male who has ever seen the inside of this place." "Vegetables, how nice." "I'm vegetarian." "Do you have a spoon?" "No." "How is it?" "Like cat food." "By the way, I'm Sophie." "I'm French." " Jennifer." "Did you see the director already?" "If you talk of the devil..." "You are the new girl." "You were expected this afternoon." "The flight was delayed." "The school has its rules." "I'm sorry, but I must confiscate this." "Hey wait." "You don't know who that is." "That's Paul Corvino." "Sophie that is enough." "Get into bed!" "And if I catch you smoking again, you'll be sorry." "And you young lady...to bed." "And switch off the light." "That bitch stealing Paul Corvino." "It is all right." "I have a bunch of them in the bag." "So tomorrow we put them all up all over the room." "I've seen all his movies I saw his last one three times." "Lucky for you." "He must have made me zip through it at least 15 times." "He said he trust in my opinon." "You mean you know him?" "Yes, of course I do." "Have you been to bed with him?" "Paul Corvino is my father." " Oh, sorry." "It's all right." "I do know everything about you!" " Do you?" "Your mother lived in India and owned a hotel." "She was married again." "Not like your father." "You were only 7 when they split up." "No, 8." "You were 7!" "How do you know that?" "I read Fangoria." " Oh!" "It was christmas." "I was checking the presents when the phone rings." "Ma answered." "She said she will come soon." "lit was her lover." "Then she went and did never came back." "I always remember it." "Dad got 12 presents." "He said he got the 13. from mother to hurt him." "You didn't read that in Fangoria?" "You know I am really glad you are here." "I always had to sleep alone." "It can be very scary." "Thanks for coming." "I am the one who should thank you." "Don't let me forget that." "I owe you a meal." "You know...there is a murder around here!" "A maniac who kidnaps girls all ages and kills them." "Could we change the subject?" "I need my sleep." "I'm really tired from the trip." "You're right." "Sometimes I can't sleep all night thinking about it." "What do you think about before you fall asleep?" "My father." "If I thought about your father I'd never get any sleep." "Can I still watch some TV?" "I have headphones as well" "No problem, good night, Sophie." "Sleep well, Jennifer." "Are you hurt?" "What you are doing on the street at night?" "Can't you answer?" "Why are you dressed like that?" "Look at her eyes, she used drugs!" "Can you see anything?" "What are we doing now?" "Let's run away." "Where are you coming from?" "Ok, I'm coming with you." "Is this the first time you've been sleepwalking?" "No." "Do you know what happened?" "I can't remember anything." "My savior." "Are you american?" "I am studying at the academy." "Where are you from?" "I am from Scotland." "I came here as student and stayed to teach." "Then I had this accident." "I haven't moved since." "What do you teach?" "Enthomology." "Study insects." "Really?" "Do insects interest you?" "Yeah." "A lot!" "I love them." "You mean that?" "Absolutely!" "Why?" "You remind me of another girl." "Greta." "Used to come here sometimes and help out." "Mostly secretarial work." "And then..." "Then?" "She was supposed to come here one night." "She never arrived." "The killer got her?" "How do you know about that?" "I thought so." "You must be frozen, child." "She left a coat here." "It's upstairs." "Here, she'll show you were it is." "You are wonderful, Inge." "Stop it, it hurts." "Hold that." "That beats." "They never miss." "This special is supposed to be practically blind." "Be careful, you are in range." "Won't do anythink to me." "In this coat you look like Greta." "She also liked the insects." "But they didn't like her as they like you." "Can you hear the chirping?" "This means something special." "It is a mating call." "You are exciting him." "Smell it!" "Really?" " Yes, smell." "Sort of sweet." "This substance is secreted by a gland." "It is supposed to attract the female." "You are exciting him and he is doing his best to excite you." "I don't think so." "We only just met." "It isn't the mating season." "I don't understand." "I've never seen anything like that before." "Oh, thanks for everything." "Come by any time." "Night." "To make an old man happy take the cablecar." "It is only a five minutes ride from town." "I don't know." "Maybe." "And mind how you go." "Without sleepwalking." "If it happens to you again, you must say:" "I am sleepwalking, I must wake up." "I am sleepwalking, I must wake up." "I am sleepwalking, I must wake up." "I don't need that." "I haven't had an attack for years." "The journey was probably too exhausting." "Or it was caused by the change of air." "Maybe the wind." "That is the foehn, a very strange wind." "It is typical for this area here." "It comes from the south over the Alps." "Such a sudden blast of warm air causes snow avalanches." "Makes the flowers grow, the larvae of the insects develop faster." "And many complain about headaches." "When it blows, they say it drives some people to madness." "This is a rather strange part of the country here." "This Swiss Transylvania." "Would someone please tell me what this examination is all about?" "What you did last night is highly irregular." "No student ever left the boarding school at night before." "How many times do I have to tell you that I did not leave school on purpose." "I walked in my sleep." "This can happen." "But this is not normal." "And it is our duty to find the reason for that." "But don't you understand?" "You will find out nothing." "I've been examined by specialists before." "It is not an illness." "Not yet, but it could become more serious." "And you can't remember anything?" "Sleepwalking is far more serious than talking in the sleep, or ransacking the fridge." "It could even lead to a new personality trying to emerge." "Sometimes it is the first step on the path to schizophrenia." "So you think I'm crazy?" "Ok, forget your EEG." "Calm down, calm down." "Ok, start it." "I will show you who is crazy." "What is going on?" "That is strange." "Do you suffer from epilepsy or do you take something like...drugs?" "I am not schizophrenic, epileptic or stoned." "Hello, Shapero Evans?" "Hi, I'd like to speak to Morris please?" "Jennifer Corvino." "Right, Paul Corvino's daughter." "He is out of town?" "Three days?" "Holidays?" "Which holidays?" "Look who is there." "Our zombie." "Have you heard, she walks in her sleep." "Walks in the sleep." "If you ask me, she has got a problem." "For me, she is ill." "So that's Paul Corvino's daughter." "That doesn't give her the right to be such a show-off." "Here she comes." "Let's go." "Yes, I don't want to be close to her." "What's wrong?" " Damn Morris." "Who is he?" "Your boyfriend?" "He's my father's agent and attorney." "I want him to get me out of this shitty school." "Why do you want to leave?" "Your little brother isn't the only male to disgrace this place." "First you forgot the doctor." "He's not a man." "He's got more hands than the entire basketball team." "Second you forgot the killer." " The killer?" "What is the poet trying to say with these words?" "Well, who is going to answer?" "You, Elizabeth." "Me?" " Yes you." "I think the poet took the words right out of a Bee Gees song." "That's very funny." "The poet in question is Abraham Kouli." "What if the killer saw me?" "I am really scared." " I would be too." "Can you imagine if I walk in my sleep again tonight I walk right into him." "Please promise you keep an eye on me tonight." "And lock the door." "And when you hear me get up do anything to wake me." "Promise?" "Please say yes." "Sophie?" "You tell us!" "Me?" " Yes, stand up." "The poet with it's eracular style..." "The poet with it's ericular style..." "Eracular style!" " Ehm ...., eracular style." "...tells of the danger we face, should we forget..." "...the sense and the meaning of the past tells of the danger we face, should we forget the sense and the meaning of the past..." "And do you believe that danger exists?" "Screw the past." "Screw the past." "Well done, Sophie." "And what about ancient Greece?" "Shakespeare?" "Richard Wagner?" "And Michael Jackson." "Like it?" " Nice!" "Were it comes from?" "I put in on by mistake." "Guess who it belongs to?" "Paul Corvino's daughter." " The actor?" "Her name is Jennifer and she is my roommate." "How is she?" "He is fantastic." "All those muscles." "Not him!" "Her?" "Oh, she is pretty." "She wears her hair like mine." "You know, I have to watch her at night." "Because she walks in her sleep." "Walks in her sleep?" "Yeah!" "She gets up and she walks, like this." "Come back." "I have to go." "It takes long to come home." "Oh, come on, stay a little longer." "I really have to go now." "You shit." " What did you say?" "I said:" "Fuck you!" "Sleepwalking..." "I must..." "I must wake up." "The police came this morning." "My pale the head-mistress told them not to believe anything I say, because she thinks I'm crazy." "Maybe you think I'm crazy too, dad." "I mean there was really nothing I could do." "I was so scared that I couldn't say anything about what I saw or why I screamed." "Do you think the glove belongs to the killer?" "Yeah!" "I'm sure of it!" " But why are there maggots?" "It is the larvae." "I am going to examine it." "We know more after that if we are lucky." "Maybe I can answer your questions also." "You're the professor;" "I trust you." "You should examine me, too." "Jennifer." " Yes?" "Don't forget your book." "Have you any idea, why they behave like that?" "They have never done this before." "I guess they sense the mood I'm in." "I'm often in a bad mood." "Upset about something." "But they don't carry on like this." "In ancient Greece the butterfly symbolized the soul." "The so-called psyche." "That's why we speak of a butterfly-psyche." "Is there an association between the insects and the human soul?" "I think the key to this mystery can only be found in the supernatural." "And if you are a very sensitive person you feel something of that." "Right?" "Yes." "How about the glove." "A insect, a firefly showed me the way." "The police was there." "They asked me lots of questions." "But I didn't tell them about the glove." "I don't want them to think I'm crazy." "You can tell me, I'm not the police." "What happened?" "I was alone in the dark." "And I was afraid." "A firefly came." "It was like it heard me." "And it answered my call." "You calmed them down, just by telling that." "That's ridiculous." " No." "That's the greatest discovery I've made." "Through you my expectations were confirmed." "Now I have the facts my colleagues considered absurd." "The paranormal powers that are unusual in human beings are perfectly natural in insects." "Some species communicate with each other over far distances like telepathy." "I could give you many samples." "I wrote a book about it." "You should read it." "It's perfectly normal for insects to be slightly telepathic." "It's normal for insects." "But am I normal?" "Jennifer!" "Why me?" "Fraulein Corvino can not be left alone." "I want someone in here with her." "I want to know everything she says and does." "I'm scared of her." "She arrived and Sophie disappeared." "Plus she's crazy." "Listen to this:" "Dear dad..." "Ah, here it is." "Do you remember what the doctor said about sleepwalking manifested with split personality?" "It's true." "My second personality is there." "Do you know how?" "I communicate with insects." "I mean I have discovered, I have power over them." "I'm not kidding." "I even have a witness." "The famous enthomologist John Mc Gregor who lives near here." "We've become friends." "See, she is crazy." "This - is mine!" "Hey Jennifer, listen!" " What?" "I'm a spider!" "Look I'm a spider." "Stop it." "I'm a killer-snake." "I'm a fly." "No!" "Stop it!" "We worship you..." "We worship you..." "I love you." "I love you all." "I love all of you." "She's still asleep." "I called an ambulance to have her taken to the mental hospital." "They'll be her any minute." "At least they'll be better equipped to keep her calm." "Is she insane?" "Well, she is not normal." "She is diabolic." "Diabolic?" " Yes!" "Yes, the bible also refers to the devil as Belzebub." "Which means:" "Lord of the Flies." "She is the Lord of the flies." "Call me as soon as she wakes up." "Diabolic?" "Does Jennifer look like the devil to you?" "No, you are not the devil." "The only devil here is the killer." "But I understand how you must be feeling." "I know what it feels like to be different." "And the conditions that go with it:" "pityer, ironing, revotion, annoyance." "People have the ability to almost hate yourself!" "There's a big difference between you and me." "When that car bashed into me, I lost something." "You gained something." "You are in a position to do extraordinary things." "With that gift of you..." "Come on, I want to show you something." "It is very interesting." "Look." "These were inside the glove." "The larvae of the great sarcophacus." "What a menacing name." "Appropriate to the insect that bears it." "It feeds exclusively of dead bodies." "The great sarcophacus?" "A strange name." "It is capable of picking up the scent of a dead body over great distances." "It's sensory reception is extraordinary, quite unique." "But why do the gloves have so many larvae?" "Perhaps because when the murderer hides his victims he likes to keep in physical contact with them." "Conserving them." "He is a psycho." "If we need to get him, we have to call on the services of 2 of the greatest detectives ever known." "Perhaps I should say unknown. - up to now." "But this will change." "Who were they?" "You and him: the great sarcophocus." "Spread your hand." "See, he's not afraid of you." "He won't do that for me." "Ask him to lead you where the dead bodies are hidden." "He'll lead you." "That fly is your magic wand." "You mean that is working?" "Of course!" "It will take time." "It could be anywhere." "Not anywhere." "On a 52 kilometer route." "The first girl to dissapear was a danish tourist." "She took a bus of the red line." "It starts on the city square on a 52 kilometer route." "Stops at various tourist traps on the way." "She was seen getting on that bus." "When you get near to the killer's house, you'll know about it soon enough." "Because the sarcophacus will go crazy." "And head straight for the dead body." "All you have to do is follow him and come straight back." "Do you feel up to it?" "Yeah!" "I want him caught...for Sophia." "And Greta." "I wish you all the luck in the world, my two detectives." "Excuse me!" "What do you want?" "Can you please close the window?" "No!" "You naughty girl." "Wait, Wait, Wait." "Thanks." "What are you doing here?" "Ahm..." "I was following the..." "You came here to steal, did you?" "No, I was looking for someone." "The house is empty." "No one's left here." "The former attendance moved out 8 months ago." "The house is for sale." "I'm sorry, I'm really sorry." "May I help you?" " Who are you?" "I am the estate agent." "If you are looking for a house, I am your man." "Anyone living in the house now?" "No." "By the way, where did you come from?" "I didn't hear you drive up." "How long has the house been empty?" "I don't know. 7 to 8 months maybe." "Who was living here before?" "We do not give out that kind of information." "It's absolutely confidential and against our company..." "I'm Inspector Geiger, Kantonpolizei." "You locked yourself out." "This damn machine." "I wonder what is going on around here?" "Is there someone there?" "Who..." "Who is it?" "Hey, answer me." "Who are you?" "Most of our patients are kept under restraint." "Take my word for it inspector:" "the person you are looking for, is not one of ours." "No one's ever escaped from here." "Correct." "But I'm working from the exact opposite assumption." "I gonna explain?" "It isn't if someone got out of your institution but rather got in." "You have had such a case I believe?" "Yes, a curious incident." "It happened about 15 years ago." "Here on our basement level." "Since then it has only been accessible from members of our staff." "The more down one goes in this place the more monsterous the inmates become." "Probably the same in hell." "Until you reach the last circle." "The one without a center." "Shit, Morris." "I'm telling you." "I won't stay a minute longer." "I wanna come home and I don't have the money for a ticket." "I run away." "They want to keep me in the clinic." "What?" "It is a long story." "Take me back and I tell you." "Where can you transfer the money?" "SKA, how is the address?" "Send me some money." "Do it Morris, I don't want to be murdered." "Yes, I said murdered." "Someone tried it already." "I am sorry, there is nothing here in your name." "Are you sure?" " I'm afraid, yes." "Maybe it has just arrived and is not in the computer yet?" "I will check." "No, sorry." "Now what am I supposed to do?" "It is an emergency." "It could arrive at any time." "Look, why don't you come back later." "Can I wait here?" "Sure you can wait over there." "But I suggest you go for a walk." "I wait." "Hello Jennifer." "Your fathers attorney, Mr. Shapiro, called us from New York." "He was very worried about you and extremely angry with us for, let's say, loosing you." "What a bastard." "He sounded very reasonable on the phone." "He spoke to me and only calmed down when I told him I would come for you myself." "He said I would find you here." "I'm not going back to that school." " Of course not." "He said you want to go back to America immediately?" "Is that true?" " Yes." "Well, he authorised me to buy you a ticket and to give you some money." "Is that all right?" "Ok." " Good." "Good Luck." "What time is my flight?" "Twelve noon, tomorrow." "The last flight of the day has already left." "And what about tonight?" " I'm not gonna sleep in the school." "I'm not going back there, I'm not gonna sleep there, I never wanna to see this place again." "Don't worry, if that's what you want, it's all right." "Mr. Shapiro said to do whatever you want." "You can stay with me tonight." "It's enormous." "Do you live here alone?" "No." "You sleep in here Jennifer." "I hope you find it comfortable enough." "I hope you like it here." "Looks fine, thank you." "Why are the mirrors covered like that." "I told you I don't live alone." "I have a small son." "He is very sick." "I covered the mirrors for his sake." "He doesn't want to see his reflection." "I worry about him very much." "He's changed my life completely." "Sometimes I think he's driving me crazy." "I'm sorry." "These are things that can happen in a woman's life." "But don't worry." "You won't see him." "Oh, I don't mind if..." "It's better if you don't." "He stays in his room with his crazy thoughts." "Would you like something?" "A cup of tea?" "No, I don't wanna bother you." "It's no bother." "I am sorry, I kicked the train by mistake." "I've hit him." "Maybe he's hurt?" "Hurt?" "Don't grab him like that." " Why not?" "What on earth are you thinking?" "It's only a doll." "You are a very sensitive young lady." "Are you frightened?" " No." "Yes, you are." "I can see it in your eyes." "You are burning up." "You have a fever?" "No, I don't." " Yes, you do." "In this part of the country, with this wind, it's hardly surprising." "I'll get you a pill." "You don't want to leave with a cold tomorrow, do you?" "Imagine what Mr. Shapiro would say." "You should take them both, but if you prefere, one is enough." "I don't want any pills." "Where is the bathroom?" " The bathroom is over there." "And you will take the pills!" "I never take any pills." "Do what you are told." "You are my responsibility." "I'm not ill." "What kind of tabletts are this?" "Against fever, now take it." "You are hurting me." " Take the pills!" "All right I'll take the pills." "I'll get you some water." " I can get it myself." "Shit." "Get out of the way." "May I close the door?" "What a bitch." "The larvae of the great sarcophacus exclusively live of bodies." "Even of human bodies." "Jennifer, what are you doing." "Jennifer, answer me!" "Open the door!" "Answer me!" "How dare you act like this." "Let me in!" "Open the door!" "Why didn't you open the door?" "What were you doing?" "Did you take the pills?" "What were you doing?" "Who do you call?" " Morris, just to tell him I'm ok." "Tomorrow." " Now." "Just a short call." " No!" "Let me go." "I said no, do you understand?" "You are in my house and you are doing what I say." "What I wanted to ask." "15 years ago, when you were still working in Basel, you were assaulted?" "Surely you haven't forgotten the incident." "No." "Look at this." "He pulled me to him to the bars." "I understand Frau Bruckner forgive me." "But we have to be precise." "So you moved here 8 months ago." "Is that correct?" "Yes that is so, Inspector." "Please come this way." "And where were you living before that?" "Outside Zürich." "Perhaps the murderer hides his victims." "He likes to keep in physical contact with them." "He's a psychopath." "Mr. Shapiro?" " Yes." "Your car rental agency." "Your car is right outside." "Here is the key." "Do you need a map, sir?" "No, thank you, I know the area." "Don't be afraid." "I'm Inspector Geiger." "I want to help you." "Stop shouting." "Go away." "You scare me." " I won't hurt you." "I don't want you here." " I know your mother was bad." "I wanna help." " You can't help." "You don't have to worry about the mirrors anymore." "It's all over." "Morris!" " Jennifer!" "He was deceived but he was my son." "And you killed him." "Why didn't I kill you before?" "I killed the Inspector and your Professor friend." "And now I may kill you to avenge him." "Why don't you call your insects Go on!" "Call them!" "Call them."
