"Let's give them a hand." "Be careful, don't hit the boat." "Give me a hand." "Thanks, kids." "Let's go in the water." "I'm coming!" "Let's go, Manolo!" "Hi there, what are you trying to catch?" "Tell me." "What are you fishing for?" "What are you using for bait?" "Come on, Tom." "Can we go now?" "It's so hot." "I should've brought a hat." "We can buy you one here." "Listen." "To what?"

"Anybody here?" "There's nobody there." "It doesn't matter." "We can serve ourselves and just leave the money on top." "It's all melted!" "There's a bar." "There's nobody in here either." "It looks like they all left in a hurry." "It's strange...." "What?" "Nobody's been here for awhile." "What do you mean?" "This thing looks like it's been going for hours." "Tom, I'm dying of thirst and I'm hungry!" "Let's see what they got here." "There's plenty to drink." "Coca Cola.....cold beer." "And to eat?" "All I see is sugar and some burnt chickens." "Ahh, I think there used to be a little grocery store  just around the corner." "Are you coming?" "No, not me." "It's hot and i'm tired." "I'll wait here for you." "I'll be right back." "Hi, come on in." "What's your name?" "What's your name?" "Come on, tell me." "What's your name?" "Lourdes." "I'm pregnant, see?" "Why are you doing that?" "Some day you'll have a baby too." "Please stay here?" "Please come back?" "Hello?" "Did you see anyone there?" "But Tom, it's not possible." "This place is rather unique, you know." "Whenever there's a fiesta, all people leave and go to the other side of the island." "How about you?" "What about me?" "Did you see anyone?" "Yes, I did." "A little girl, but she ran away." "This is all I could find." "Bread, sausages, fruit, sardines..... and a hat for you..... and a doll for Rosie." "Do you like it?" "What are we going to do, Tom?" "First we'll have a bite to eat, and then we'll go look for our hotel." "Please come here." "Come here!" "Hold it.....don't go." "Don't go!" "There has to be people on the island because if there are children here, then that means....." "Who turned the electricity off?" "The rotisserie stopped." "I did it." "What i'm afraid of is......" "Our first meal on Almanzora!" "We have everything we need.... plates, utensils...." "If you would kindly follow me, madam." "Right this way." "Please have a seat." "I'll be your chef...... and your waiter too." "Fine napkins and..." "It rang a few minutes ago." "I picked it up, but there was no one on the line." "Hello?" "Hello?" "I can't understand you." "What did you say?" "Please speak English." "I can't understand what you're saying." "Please speak louder, in English or Spanish?" "Hello?" "Hello?" "Who was it?" "I don't know, but it sounded like a child." "What language?" "German, Dutch...maybe Swedish." "I really couldn't tell." "Tom, you told me there were no telephones on the island." "There wasn't a direct line to the continent." "Since that time, they must have installed a local system." "At least now we know we're not the only people on the island." "Was it the same voice?" "Yes." "How many people live on this island?" "I don't know." "Maybe 100.....200." "When do they leave for their fiesta, do you remember?" "Did they always leave the village this deserted?" "It's possible, but I went with them so I didn't stay to see." "They were really great fiestas." "Everyone would bring their guitar." "They would sing songs and set off fireworks." "What are you looking at?" "Nothing." "Tom, isn't this the place?" "Yeah." "Let's go inside." "It's not possible that there is no one in this entire village." "What are we going to do?" "We wait." "At least it's nice and cool here." "Someone will come." "Is there a shower around here?" "What did you say?" "I'm so tired and I smell like sweat." "What I would give for a shower!" "Look, Evie." "There are other tourists on the island." "Are they British?" "German" "They're a married couple with a daughter." "Do you think it was German?" "Who?" "The voice on the phone." "You said the voice sounded very young and that she might have been German." "Where are you going?" "The keys to Rooms 6 and 7 are missing." "I'm going to check up there." "Tom, come here!" "Look!" "I knew the village couldn't be completely abandoned." "I don't see anyone." "There was someone." "I saw an old man cross the street." "He's still there on the corner." "Look, down at the very end of the street." "You can see his cane." "Ok, i'll go and see." "Look, a little girl!" "Tom, what is she doing?" "Why?" "Why did you do that?" "Why did you do that?" "Why?" "Tell me why you did it?" "Why?" "Come back." "Come back here!" "What happened to that old man?" "Nothing." "What do you mean, nothing?" "Nothing." "Tom, what happened?" "Listen, the little girl, with the cane..." "she was playing with the old man." "Then accidentally, she...." "What are you talking about?" "I saw her beat the old man." "I swear to you, she was only playing." "It's the truth." "You're lying!" "Why the hell would you lie to me?" "I saw you carrying his body." "What happened?" "She hit him, and he was hurt pretty bad." "Why didn't you bring him back here?" "I took him home to his house." "You're lying." "Listen, I'm telling you the truth!" "I brought him home to his house." "It was right there on the corner." "I saw her beat that old man." "Then I saw you carrying him in your arms." "Where did the little girl go?" "I left them both there together." "Please, Tom, stop lying to me!" "She hit him with the cane accidentally, and his forehead was bleeding." "It was an accident......nothing more." "Honey, in your condition, you really shouldn't be getting upset." "There are some strange things happening on this island, and I feel as if you're doing everything you can to hide them from me." "If something bad is happening here, whatever it is we should leave right away" "Hello?" "Hello?" "Please speak slowly and louder." "Are you Mrs. Brit Vandenholder?" "Don't go up there." "Please don't go!" "They might be up in their room." "Stay back!" "Who are you?" "Keep away!" "It's really hot outside." "You should rest awhile." "You're here on vacation, right?" "I'm going to talk to that man." "What's happening on the island?" "I don't know." "I don't know." "Please, relax." "Feel better now?" "What is happening on Almanzora?" "The night before last..." "it was around 11 :30." "Suddenly we heard voices and children laughing." "Laughing?" "Yes, it was as if every boy and girl in the village all woke up at the same time." "They were all screaming and laughing." "They split up into small groups." "They went into people's houses as if it was a party.... but no...." "because as soon as they went inside, we'd hear men and women screaming." "screams from men and women!" "Then they'd come out laughing and go into the next house... and the next...and the next!" "My wife went down to see what was going on, while I stayed at the window" "She was standing in the doorway, watching." "A group of children came out of one of the houses toward her." "I thought they were playing... but they had knives and clubs in their hands." "I had a shotgun in my room, and I grabbed it but I didn't do anything." "No one in the village did a damn thing, do you understand?" "Because.... ...who can kill a child?" "I was afraid, so i hid in a tiny room in the attic." "I could hear them looking for me." "I was so afraid, until I heard your voices." "I don't know anything more." "Nothing else!" "How did you injure yourself?" "When I left my room, it was dark." "I tripped and fell on the floor." "Is it possible there are other people still alive on this island?" "No, I don't think so." "There are a few fisherman up on the north shore, and a few farms in the middle of the island." "Sounds like it's only happening on Almanzora." "Did you sleep well?" "Yes." "Hello?" "Where are you?" "Where are you?" "She was cut off." "It's the girl." "The girl from the room." "Where can she be calling from?" "She might be using the village switchboard." "Where's that?" "In the Post Office." "Post Office?" "Yes, after you go out of the hotel, you make a left and it's about 300 meters away, on the first floor." "Evie, you stay right here with him." "I'm going to try to find her, and then I'll be right back." "Sir, it is imperative that we leave here right away... all three of us and now!" "Believe me, Evelyn, we have to get out of this place!" "Why?" "Help me please?" "Aunt Isabel is sick." "They're at grandma's house, and grandma is sick too!" "They can't breathe and I'm scared." "The children hurt them bad." "Come with me, Papa." "Please stay here?" "She's my daughter." "Let's go." "Where are they going?" "Evelyn, you must do exactly as I tell you." "Tom, what's going on?" "What were all those screams?" "Listen, the only way we can get out of here is to run." "I know in your condition, you shouldn't be running, do you understand?" "Even when you have no strength left in your body, you must keep running till we get to the boat." "We can't stop for anything, do you understand?" "I understand." "Ok then...." "let's go!" "No, Tom, I can't go on." "Evie, get up and run!" "We can't stop now." "We will not stop!" "Get up on your feet." "We'll run together." "I'll hold you." "Let's go!" "We've got to run!" "Evie, try harder!" "Run, Evie!" "They're only children!" "Only kids!" "What did that man at the hotel say about all this?" "I don't know." "Something strange has affected all the children on the island." "What did he mean?" "I don't know." "Some type of mass insanity." "I don't understand it." "Where are we going now?" "To the other side of the island, where the fishermen live." "Hopefully we'll find a boat." "What about all of the adults on Almanzora?" "Where are they, Tom?" "There's a boat." "Why did you stop?" "There are some children down there." "Tom, what is happening to the children?" "I don't know." "It seems incredible, but they've all gone crazy." "All this violence seems so unbelievable." "I don't understand why they're attacking everyone." "It's as if they feel we are their enemies." "Maybe the children, out of sheer instinct, are just starting to..." "To what?" "Let's go." "Did anything strange happen here last night?" "Last night?" "Are there any other people inside the house?" "Here now?" "Are there any other people living here?" "My mother and the children." "Please, we need to hire a boat to get us to Benavis." "Go to the town on the other side of the island." "No, that's not possible." "My husband and my brother-in-law have a fishing boat." "Yes." "Where are they now?" "They're out at sea." "They should be back before sunset." "That boat there's no good, it has a big hole in the bottom." "Tom, I feel a bit faint." "Ma'am, can we rest here for a little while?" "Yes, come in." "Come inside." "How many months is she?" "Six months." "Your first child?" "No, we have two others back home." "You don't look it." "Drink this." "You'll feel better." "What is it?" "Don't worry." "Just drink it." "Why are you bothering those people?" "Oh, these children!" "Go down and play on the beach!" "They drive me crazy." "Please forgive them." "Are they all your children?" "Yes, all four of them." "Let's go." "We have to get out of here." "Sir, wait!" "They'll be coming back very soon now." "Sir!" "Children, what did I say to you?" "Go and wash up!" "And you two, go on home now." "Didn't you hear me?" "It's possible all of the kids from the village are coming this way." "But Tom, we might....." "We'll have to use the Jeep to drive across the town and get to the boat, no matter who gets in our way!" "No matter who?" "If any of the kids get in our way, I don't care what happens to them." "What do you mean?" "We have to get to the boat!" "They're leaving." "Until now, no one has dared to kill one of them." "That's why they weren't afriaid." "But they are now." "Tomorrow morning, the man will come to the island with the mail, and maybe some other people will come with him." "There's nobody outside." "Calm down." "Do those kids realize what they're doing?" "I don't know." "A normal child is incapable of killing another human being." "To tell you the truth, I thought I was incapable of it too, but now I've killed one of them." "Try to relax." "Calm down." "Water?" "Evie, what is it?" "What's the matter with you?" "Help me." "Please help me!" "I'm in pain!" "Something's hurting me bad." "Don't get up." "Lie down." "No!" "Don't do that!" "No, Tom!" "No, the pain isn't the same like when Richard and Rosie were born." "Help me Tom." "I'm in pain." "Help me." "Tom, touch it!" "Touch it with your hands." "Do you feel it?" "There it is again." "It's tearing me apart." "Help me!" "That's not true." "Relax," "It's ripping and tearing at my stomach!" "Please no!" "It's tearing me apart" "That's not true." "I feel it inside me." "It's killing me!" "Do you hear them laughing?" "They're outside!" "They're laughing because they know that the child I'm carrying inside" "It's one of them." "It's killing me!" "In that bar, a little girl came up to me... and touched me." "I'm sorry ...she touched our baby!" "I'm sorry where's Rosie?" "Where's Richard?" "It's them!" "It's them!" "It's them!" "Stop!" "Stop!" "It's them!" "What has he done?" "Where are all the townspeople?" "Goodbye." "Hi, how's it going?" "Are you going to the mainland?" "Why don't we all go?" "Because we'd attract too much attention in Benavis." "Do you think the children there will start playing the way we do?" "Yes, of course." "There are lots of children in the world." "Lots of them"
