"God damn it, Nancy!" "Fucking babysitters-- always leaving the goddamn lights on." "Nancy!" "My baby?" "My baby!" "Sorry to wake you, George." " That's all right." " I need to talk to you." "I guess you do." "Come on inside." "Actually, I... was hoping maybe you could come with us." "I need you to see something for me." "I need your expertise." "Expertise-- not a word I hear real often, Vic." "I've got to warn you, George-- it's ugly." " Give me a minute." " Yeah." "Babysitter's mom called it in." "Nancy Ann David." "She was 16 last March." "The woman is Loreen Ellen Kaltsas... 32, separated, waitress at the All State." "We have her husband in custody and he admits to slapping her around some, but I don't see the connection." "He seems pretty damn worried about the baby." "Here we go again, huh, George?" "Jesus, Max, I hope not." "The reason I think we've got another go-round is what's not here-- all the meaty bits." "Look familiar?" "Cause of death?" "Hell, George, they ripped her heart out." " Hey." " Good morning." " I got to the third board last night." " I see that." "You got a lot done." " Looks good." " Thank you." "What time are Claire and Luke due?" "Around 2:00-ish." " You okay?" " Yeah, I'm just" "I'm just thinking about Claire... and that asshole she married." "Hey, would you mind running the vacuum in the guest room in about an hour?" "Let Melissa sleep till then." "That way I can get some work done." " Yeah, no problem." " Thank you." "Oh, damn." "I almost forgot-- an amazing thing last night." "Are we aware of any retro-hippy latter-day commune or something out" "Excuse me?" "There was a girl out here last night-- way out in the field-- nekked as my mother bore me." "She was 16, 17 maybe." "Naked?" "From the waist up." "That's all I could see." "You're kidding." "Well, did she have nice breasts?" "Well, she was pretty far away." " So did you invite her in?" " Why should I?" "Who wants the wood nymph when you've got the goddess?" "Kind of a saggy goddess." "No, come on." "Goddesses don't sag." "They ripen as do the wheat and the corn." "Corn is about right." "I'm not gonna get any work done, huh?" "I don't think I want to vacuum either." "We didn't know what we had 11 years ago or where to find it." "This time I think you can assume we do." "Let's say they roam a bit, which means they're anywhere between here and Lubec, maybe down to Cutler." "Now there's plenty of forest all through that area-- we can't afford to rule it out-- but I'm guessing the shoreline." "One of these caves in here-- that's where we found them the last time." "It's a tough job." "You need to call in everybody you've got, including the state highway boys, and do it yesterday." "I'll handle it." "Will someone tell me who the hell these people are?" "Well, as near as we could figure it, they're descendents of a lighthouse keeper who went missing off of Catbird Island back in the 1800s." "Tourism, fishing population finally flushed his offspring back to mainland." "Okay, but what I don't get is how come nobody's seen them?" "You do this kind of thing, you get noticed." "Where have they been hiding the past 10 years?" "Now I thought about that." "I don't think they've been hiding." "I think they've been moving." "Look, we're a spit in the eye from Canada here and there's plenty of coastline all the way up to Newfoundland, maybe even Hudson Bay." "Some of it is practically deserted." "Now we don't coordinate our missing persons with Canada very well, do we?" "And I bet they've had a few over the past few years." "I don't think these people know they're crossing a border." "I think they just keep moving." "All right." "So where do you want to start?" "We find that cave and hope they're calling it home again." " Hey." " Hi." " You made it." " Oh, we made it." " Hey, Luke." " Hi, Amy." " Hi, David." " Leave the bags." "Leave the bags." "Let David haul it in." "You guys want something to drink, I bet." "They-- they found him." "They're serving him the papers today." " It's about goddamn time." " Yup." "Okay, she's hungry." "She's hungry." "Okay." " Here you go." " Thank you." "Okay." "Luke, why don't you go see what David's up to?" " Okay." " Okay?" "Okay." "Oh my God, she's so beautiful." "You look really tired." "You getting any sleep at all?" "No, not enough, not lately." "The IRS is all over me." "Okay, let me get this straight" "Steven mismanages his clients' money, takes out a half-million-dollar loan to cover his debts at the firm, puts up your house as collateral, forges your name to the loan and the IRS documents," " and they come after you?" " They couldn't find him." "For 9 months he disappeared completely." "And it wasn't until his boss disappeared, then Christmas and Luke's birthday came and went and not a word out of him, which is-- it's completely killing Luke." "He's seen him drunk, he's seen him abusive and he still loves his dad." "Anyway, it was a joint return and me the IRS could find." "So now they're putting up the house for a quarter of what it's worth." "Ouch." "Was that me or Melissa?" " 138 3/8." " Pretty good." "Nice local lumber, right out of the big woods." "Can I?" "Sure." "You know how to focus?" "No." "Okay, you've got these 2 images here." "What you want to do is bring the lens either towards your nose or away until you get just one image, then you use this knob to make it good and clear... like that." "Try it." " Hey!" " Hey." "Why don't you take it out back through the field?" "There's a path to the woods." "You can go hunt your bear." "Oh, but if you get too close to the sea and you hear it getting louder, turn around, okay?" "You've gone far enough." "Seems like a nice boy." "Got troubles, though, doesn't he?" "That he does." "* Melissa..." "So we sell the house, we're getting $30,000, tops," " to start a whole new life with." " Oh my God." "Hi." "Hello." "Wait a minute." " It's him." "It's Stephen." " What?" "He says he's coming up here." "He's on his way right now." "Oh my-- here here here here here." "Come here, come here." "Okay." " Anything?" " Checked the last cave we know of." "Found nothing." "Shit." "Hey, I'm not a cop anymore, remember?" "My guess is, before this is over you're gonna join me." "There's nothing I can do." " He's on the goddamn road already." " Wait, I don't get it." "He doesn't want the divorce now?" "He said he wants to talk about it, and he had that tone-- it was controlled and edgy." "He'd been drinking." "Good." "Maybe he'll drive himself into a tree." "Can I talk to you a minute?" "I don't want Luke to see him." "Do you know that he still has Stephen's Christmas present wrapped in his room?" "A tiny little blue ceramic bird that he made for him at school." "It's absolutely terrible, but he made it for Stephen." "What about the restraining order?" "He seems to be choosing to ignore that, honey." " The hell he is." " Who are you calling?" "Vic Manetti-- the police." "Wait-- wait a minute." "I'm thinking about Luke here." "What about Luke?" "Luke saw you backed up against your kitchen wall one night while Stephen worked off his drunk by slapping you around!" "Hello, Gloria." "Hi, is Vic there?" "It's David Halbard up on River Road." "Yeah well, we've got kind of a situation over here." "We've got houseguests-- a friend and an 8-year-old boy." "The woman is going through a rather messy divorce right now." "She's got a restraining order against her husband-- yeah, physical violence involved." "He's coming up here from Connecticut and he says he's going to arrive sometime tonight." "Well, we don't know what the hell to do when he gets here." "Carey, C-A-R-E-Y, Stephen." "I'm sorry, what?" "What do you mean, do I have a gun?" "Are you kidding me, Gloria?" "All-- all right." "Uh, okay." "Um, thanks, Gloria." " That was truly strange." " What?" "Well, she said Vic and most of the sheriff's office are investigating a murder." "There's strictly skeleton staff over there." "And what was that business about a gun?" "Yeah, that's the really weird part." "She actually suggested that I order him off at gunpoint-- as a matter of fact, and anybody else who I didn't personally know who may or may not come around here tonight." "What?" "Can you see me standing on the porch with a shotgun like Elvis in "Flaming Star"?" "Look what I've got." "Aren't these cool?" "Hi." "Throw your pack in the back." "Hop in." "Thanks." "How far are you going?" "Oh, some godforsaken place called Dead River." "You?" "Portland." "Nice car." "Thanks." "What's in Portland?" "My boyfriend goes to school there." "You a student too?" "I quit for a year, wanted to work." "I go back in September." "Hey, you know, I think I know Dead River." "Isn't that up near Lubec, up near the border?" "It's pretty country up there." "Well, I don't know about Lubec, but it's up there all right." "Damn long drive from Connecticut." "Why don't you just fly?" "I mean, you don't look like you'd have any trouble affording it, if you know what I mean." "Listen, maybe you could help me out." "I really don't know where the hell I'm going and... well, I'm hopeless at reading road signs after dark, so why don't you ride shotgun with me?" "Get me there and I'll drive you over to the airport at Machias or wherever and put you on a plane to Portland, my treat." "I'll give you $50 for your troubles." "Dead River's got to be 200 miles up the coast." "It'll be 9:00 or 10:00 before you even get there." "Portland's less than an hour from here." "So?" "You look at it as an adventure." "All right, make it $100." "How's that?" "Here... let me buy you a drink." "What's your name?" " Susan." " That's a nice name, Susie." "Suzy Creamcheese." "Lazy Susan." "Your boyfriend do all the work?" "Suzerain." "Suzerain means feudal lord, you know-- one to whom allegiance is due." "Let's see, what else is there?" "* "Oh Susanna," Sweet Suzy..." "I" " I think I'd like to get out now." "Stop anywhere, okay?" " You want to get out?" " Yes." "Why?" " You're drinking." " Well, yes, that's true." "I am." "I'm visiting my son and my wife if that's your problem." "I'm not coming onto you." " Okay." " So what do you say?" " About what?" " About driving up with me." "I" " I can't." "Okay." "Get out." "What?" "You've gotta pull over!" "No, I don't." "So go on, get the fuck out." " I can't!" " You can't." "Throw your pack out." "What?" "Throw your pack out the window and I'll pull over." "I promise." "Push it." "The great city of Portland welcomes you." "Have a nice day." "Bad hunt." "We are cursed." "We eat." "We are cursed." "Baby powerful." "Baby life." "Life release through blood." "Only blood!" "Blood give us power." "No blood take our power." "Baby die in shit and urine." "Ghost of baby angry... trapped." "We take other baby... new baby." "Release... not trapped." "Take power!" "Second Stolen!" "No!" "Not punishment." "Hunt." "Let's give it up, Vic." "It's too damn dark." "Yeah, might as well call it a night across the board." " Go to stage 2." " House to house." "Tell them to stay indoors, keep their phone lines open and doors and windows locked." "All right." "Come on, let's head back." "I love you, honey." "Good night." "Oh God." "He all settled in up there?" "At bedtime everything's drama." "Every night." "He can't find this, he has to do that and he's always testing me." ""I love you, Mommy." "I hate you, Mommy."" " I don't know what to do." " He'll be okay." "I wonder." "Amy, the door." "The door!" "I'll phone the police." "Use the one in our room!" "And, um, get a blanket off the bed!" "Amy, honey, can you get me a pot of water?" "Are you okay?" "Mom?" "Mom?" "Stay inside, close the door and get your clothes on." "David, there's no dial tone." "What?" "!" "Use my cell phone." "It's on the" "Oh my God!" "Amy!" "Amy!" "Luke, there are people in this house and they want to hurt us." "We have to go out the window" " Mommy" " It's okay to be scared, but we have to be brave too." "Let me help you." "Put Melissa down on the bed." "Baby!" "It's not as far down as it seems, I promise." "All right, sweetie, when you fall remember to bend your legs, okay?" "Oh God." "Mom, are you okay?" "Mom?" "You said we needed to find a place to hide." " I know a place." " Quick, show me." "Show me." "Baby!" "Woman." "Baby?" "What the fuck?" "Fucking" " Jesus!" "Fuck me!" "What you gonna do, Vic?" "Oh Jesus, this is all we need." "Driver, pull the vehicle over." "Sir, place your hands behind your-- turn around!" "Place your hands behind your head and turn around." "Check him." "Very good, sir." "Thank you." " Just stand still." " Vic, check this out." "Sir, you can take your hands down now." "You want to maybe tell me what happened?" "She took out my fucking window and he tried to rip my fucking head off!" " I mean look at this!" "Look at these!" " Sir, hold on." "What do you mean "he," "she"?" "What man and woman?" "Kids!" "Fucking wild animals!" "Sir, hold on." "I'm gonna need you to calm down." "Let's just start with your name." "What is your name?" "Carey" " Stephen Carey." "All right." "Mr. Carey, where did you just come from?" " Up there." " I need to know exactly where up there." "I don't know, some fucking dirt road!" "I was gonna visit my wife." "Okay, so your wife lives up there?" "No, she was gonna visit friends." " Who would they be?" " I can't remember their last name." "Why the fuck can't I remember their last name?" "!" "Sir, calm down." "Why don't you come with us" " and you can show us where you went?" " No way." "No." "I don't want any part of that fucking place." "Did you see any guns there, sir?" "Guns?" "No." "No, no guns." "Hatchets and knives and" " Jesus!" "Do you see what these gentlemen are wearing?" "Do you see this?" "I think you're gonna be fine, okay?" "It's around here somewhere." "You told me once that people never look up." "Remember?" "And we can see the house from here." "We can see if anybody comes." "There!" "You been drinking tonight, sir?" "No." "Well, yeah, a little." "Halbard-- that's it, for God's sake." "It's Halbard." "That's David and Amy Halbard." "That's up on River Road." "Gloria?" "Gloria, yeah, it's Vic." "I need you to take everybody off of house-to-house and get them up to the Halbard place on River Road." "Get an ambulance up there." "Yeah, Vic, that plate Miles just called in is registered to one Stephen Carey, Greenwich, Connecticut." "Got a call on him earlier from Dave Halbard," " something about a restraining order." " Hey!" "Gloria, tell the state boys he bailed out about 100 yards from River Road." "He's heading for Mayor Beach!" "Looks like he's going through the woods towards Mayor Beach." " Copy that." " We don't have time for this shit." "Let's go." " Mom." " Count them, see where they go." "It's Amy, Mom." "They've got Amy." "I know." "We've got to keep Melissa safe." "We'll help as soon as we can." "Can't we help her now?" "They're hurting her, Mom." "See how many there are." "3, not counting Amy." "Then we can't do it." "Oh God, they're still all around us somewhere." " But, Mom" " We can't." "You know I love Amy." "We can't." "Wait." "Luke, quickly," "I think we can get to the car and get help." "Wait here." "Luke, come on." "Luke, run!" "I said run!" "Baby!" "This was a really nice guy." "What did you find up there?" "There's a broken door to the bedroom and the window was wide open like someone maybe got out that way or tried to." " Did you see the bassinet?" " Bassinet?" " In that room." " Christ on a crutch, we've got another baby here?" "What the hell was that?" "* I'm Stephen Carey" "* Go under the tree" "* I'm gonna put you, Claire" "* Right down on your knees" " Right down on your knees" " Steal him later." "* 'Cause I know what" "I think it was coming from right around here." "Hey!" "No!" "No!" "Get off of me!" "No!" "No!" "No!" "No!" "You'll be all right here." "I'll come back for you." "You'll see." "You fucking crazy bitch." "You stay the fuck away from me!" "You stay the fuck away from me!" "No!" "Get off of me!" "You little fuckers." "So you got one of them, Vic?" "Fuck it." "That'll have to do." "Let her down." "Let her down!" "No." "No." "No!" "Oh." "God damn." "Baby?" "Rabbit?" "Find Rabbit." "Eartheater dead." "Find Rabbit." "Wait." "Stephen?" "St-Stephen?" "Shut the fuck up, Claire." "Oh, Jesus." "No." "No!" "Baby." "Baby!" "Baby." "I don't know." "I don't know." "But I think I know where you can find out." "She doesn't like to be bitten." "Please don't." "No no, please don't." "I don't know." "I swear I don't know." "The truth, Claire." "Go on, tell her." "All right-- the house." "I told Luke to go back to the house in case anything-- if anything ever happened to me to take Melissa and go back to the house right away." "I think you'd better find some way of making her understand what the fuck you're talking about." "Don't you?" "No." "No!" "No, get off of me!" "No!" "No, get off of me!" "No!" "No!" "No, get off of me!" "Oh my God." "No." "No." "No!" "No." "Get off of me!" "No!" "No!" "Baby?" "Oh my God!" "Oh my God!" "Oh my God!" "No!" "Oh my God!" "Over here." "Are you okay?" "Where are they?" "Who's with them?" "My-- my mom and Amy." " I think" " I think Amy." " Who's Amy?" "My mom's friend-- Mrs. Halbard." "You saw them?" "What, you followed them?" "And I think" "I think I saw my father." "It was later." "He-- there was this man with this woman." "He was leaning on her and they were going up." " She-- she" " Easy, son." "You did good." "Now listen." "I gotta go up there, but I want you to stay right here out of sight and watch for me." "You stay right here hidden in the grass, okay?" "If anybody comes along who doesn't look right to you, you stay right where you are." "You don't need to warn me." "You don't need to do anything but hide, okay?" "I'll be fine." "If anybody comes along who looks like a policeman, you show them where I've gotten to." "And we're gonna get everybody out of there in good shape, okay?" "Now we just met, but I've got a feeling you're a pretty brave guy, so you hang in there and watch for those uniforms." "And I'll be seeing you, okay?" "Now go on, get down." "Spread out!" "Hello?" "No, get off of me!" "Oh my God, No!" "No no no..." "No!" "Oh my God!" "Oh my God!" "Oh my God!" "Get off me!" "Stop it!" "Stop it!" "Get the fuck away from me!" "What are you fucking doing?" "They'll kill us, you dumb bitch!" "Kill us?" "They'll kill us anyway!" "Didn't you see what they did to your fucking wife," " you stupid piece of shit?" "!" " You mean that?" "Fuck her." "Don't." "Don't!" "Don't leave me!" "Stay where you are!" "It's over." "We've got to get out of here." "We've got to find someone." "Come on." " Mommy!" " Luke!" "We need another stretcher here." "Yeah, I know exactly where she is." " Where?" " I'd have to show you." "It's too dangerous, son." "You don't even know what's out there." "I don't know how to tell you." "It's just this place off the path." "I need to show you." "Ma'am?" "Melissa?" "Melissa?" "You be careful, okay?" " There!" " Son, hold on!" " Wait up, kid!" " Stop!" "Slow down!" " Luke, stop!" " Luke, wait!" "Luke, stop!" "Luke!" " Luke!" " Luke!" "Subtitles:" "Arigon" "Holy shit!" "Who is that?" "That's not Luke." "Luke, are you all right up there?" "Is the baby okay?" "It's okay, Melissa." "We're safe now."
