- [Kyle] I'm so fucking-
- [Kyle's Mom] Hello?
Hello?
Is that you, Kyle?
Hello?
Put Cassie on the phone.
- Cassie's gone.
- [Kyle's Mom] What do you mean she's gone?
- She's dead.
Cassie.
Cassie and the kids are dead.
- Oh Kyle! - They're dead.
- [Kyle's Mom] What have you done?
- I didn't do anything!
I didn't do anything. (sobs)
It was them.
- It was who?
- These things, fucking creatures.
They broke in and they butchered them
when we fight with it.
And then it won't step inside they'll kill me too.
Everywhere I turn, they're there.
They only seem to come at night, except this.
This one.
The old woman.
She seems to be out even when it's daylight
like she doesn't got any sleep.
- [Kyle's Mom] You need to turn yourself into the police.
- I can't.
- [Kyle's Mom] Come home then.
Your father and I, we can help you.
- I can't.
- [Kyle's Mom] Why?
- Because she will find me.
And they'll kill you too.
Just like they killed Cassie.
- [Kyle's Mom] Kyle, you're scaring me.
(Kyle gasps)
- I have to go.
I need to find somewhere to lay low.
- [Kyle's Mom] No. Kyle please just-
- I love you.
(Kyle weeps)

(footsteps recedes)
(door thuds)
- [Guard 1] Anyone in here?
(walkie talkie crackles)
- [Guard 2] What was that noise there?
- That was nothing.
It was just one of the doors hadn't been secured properly.
- [Guard 2] Okay. Well secure it and get back to your post.
- [Guard 1] Will do.

- That's all the invoices you asked for.
I can put them in date order if you want.
- No, it's fine. They'll get out of order anyway
once I've been through them.
Did you manage to get through to Carter's?
- I left a message for his secretary.
Donalds apparently has been in a meeting all day.
- Yeah, I bet he has.
Listen, If you haven't heard from him by Monday,
I want you to call and refuse to hang-up
until he talks to you.
- And if they hang up?
- Then you need to call back,
and keep calling until he takes the call.
- [Hannah] Okay.
Do you need anything else from me?
- No, you're all right. Get yourself home.
(phone rings)
- Hello, Gulliver's.
Oh, hello.
Yeah she is.
I'll just transfer you.
It's Greg.
- Oh shit. I'm supposed to be going after dinner with him.
Hi darling.
Yeah. We're all fine .
Sorry, I'm just fighting a losing battle.
Bye.
I'm sorry, I'm not gonna be able to
come up to dinner tonight.
I really hate to do this to you.
- [Greg] I knew this was gonna happen.
- This why I bought dinner to you.
(Amanda chuckles)
- Chinese?
- Thank you.
You see, this is why I married you.
- You married me because I bring you Chinese food?
- Yep. That's the sole reason.
- [Greg] Fair enough.
I don't have any plates though.
So we'll have to eat out of the boxes.
But I do have these little plastic forks,
so every cloud-
So what've you got left to do?
Anything I could help at?
- Oh, I've just got few emails to send out tonight.
Them I think I'm done for today, at least.
How's Karli?
- Yeah, she's fine.
On the sofa. Cuddled up under a duvet, watching the movie.
- Has she done her homework?
- Or so she says.
- Did you check?
- [Greg] Nope.
- You have to check.
What she says and what she does
are two completely different things
- I gave her benefit of the doubt.
Besides, today has been a good day.
No mood swings, no shouting, no fight.
She's in a happy mood.
I didn't want to tempt fate
by demanding evidence for doing homework.
- Okay I suppose,
she do any of her chores?
- No.
- [Amanda] Great, so, I'm going back to the house
to a sink full of dirty dishes and then to wash them today?
- Nope. I did it.
- You didn't.
- [Greg] I've done.
What would you do without me?
(metal clanks)
- [Amanda] Did you hear that?
- [Greg] Wait here.
- [Amanda] What about Karli?
- [Greg] Oh, don't wake her. It'll be nothing.
If you hear me shouting, call the police.
(eerie music)
(growls)
(stones clanking)
- [Greg] Hey!
What the fuck are you doing in my house?
Put my shit down and get the fuck out!
(blood flows)
(dog barks)
(wardrobe opens)
- [Amanda] Karli!
(knocks on door)
- [Amanda] Karli, are you home?
(car unlocks)
- Where the hell've you been?
- Kelly's.
- I thought you said your goodbyes yesterday.
Well, we need to go now so hurry up and get your stuff.
The movers will have to get the rest tomorrow.
- Goodbye isn't as easy for some of us.
(car trunk slams)
- You sure it was left handed or right handed Karli?
- I don't know.
- Well now, you're lookin at a map or something.
- No, I thought you were.
- [Amanda] I'm tryin to concentrate on the road.
Can you look out for a sign?
What's this coming up here?
- [Karli] Bee Cottage.
- [Amanda] That's it. We're here.
Oh no. She's waiting for us and we are late.
(car door opens)
(eerie music intensifies)
- Karli!
(water flowing)
- [Amanda] Karli!
Karli!
(door opens)
- What?
- [Amanda] I'm cooking dinner out.
- Okay. Be there in a minute.
Can't even have five minutes.
- Hey.
It's our first dinner here.
That reminds me.
I need to go to tax office first thing in the morning.
Register myself as the new proprietor.
I mean, the last thing we need
is the tax man breathing down our neck.
Before we even settled in.
Oh, and the other few wanted to look at,
is previous owners' prices,
I mean I think they could've been charging
lot more per night?
I mean, the views are amazing.
And I've read on the internet
and that's low to other places near here the-
- Mum. Can we just, please.
- What?
- Just stop with all the "happy families'" bullshit.
- Language, Karli.
- I'm seventeen.
- [Amanda] Teen. - Not a child.
- [Amanda] Seventeen.
Still a teenager and I'm still your mother.
And you show me some respect.
Father would never let you speak to me like this.
- My father wouldn't have dragged me
halfway across the country against my wishes.
He definitely would've stopped me from going to university.
- Not this again.
Do we have to keep going over and over this?
- [Karli] I'm my own person.
I need to make make my own decisions in life.
I'm not here just to keep you company, you know.
- I never said you were.
I just asked you to take a sabbatical, a year out.
And then you can do what the hell you like.
I just need your help. That's all.
- It's not my help you need.
I'm going to bed.
- What about your food?
- [Karli] Lost my appetite.
(footsteps recedes)
(gulps water)
(door closes)
(birds chirping)
(dramatic music)
(water splashes)
- Kelly? Ke-
Can you hear me?
Not a ca-
One second, I'll put you in speaker.
(speaker static)
Can you say you hear me?
- [Kelly] Yes. I can hear you.
- Hey.
Sorry I didn't call last night.
The house is in the middle of nowhere
and I've only just managed to find a place
I can actually get some reception.
- [Kelly] It's fine. How are you?
- I'm okay.
Well, not okay, really.
I'm gonna sound silly, but,
I miss you.
- [Kelly] You don't sound silly but,
it's only been one day.
- Yeah. I know.
It's only been a day but,
I don't wanna be here.
I wanna be back there.
With you - [Kelly] I know.
Did you manage to talk to your mum about us?
- No I'm, not yet.
But I will. Promise.
We've barely spoken to each other.
Really, it's just been arguing.
- [Kelly] What about?
- The usual.
Her fucking drinking, being controlling, list goes on.
You know, she wants me to stay with her for a year.
And then she'll give me her blessing to get on with my life.
Like I should be fucking grateful.
(ominous music)
- [Kelly] Karli?
I'm really sorry.
It's gonna sound rude but, can't we bat tomorrow?
My lift's here.
- Yeah, of course, I'm-
If you can get through. Where you going though?
- [Kelly] Just doin some shoppin,
then goin out for a few drinks later.
- Oh. Okay.
- [Kelly] I'll tell you all about it tomorrow.
Be there and love you.
(vacuum cleaner whirring)
- Karli.
Karli.
Where've you been?
- Out for a walk.
- Is everything all right?
- Terrific, mum. Everything's just terrific.
- Karli.
- What?
- I need to talk to you.
- I think you've said everything already.
- Please.
- What?
- I didn't sleep all well last night.
I was awake thinking.
- About what?
- About you.
And me.
And this place.
I know you think I've been selfish-
- You have.
- Please let me finish.
I know you think I've been selfish.
I get it.
To be honest, in certain circumstances, I have.
But since your dad-
You are all that I have left in the world.
I'm so scared about being on my own.
And I'd thought buying this place was such an opportunity.
You know, chance for a new beginning. Just you and me.
I've realized that, that was was my dream, not yours.
And I can't expect you to sacrifice your dream
so I can live out mine.
So, what I'm saying is, if you wanna go to university,
you have my blessing.
- Are you being serious?
- [Amanda] Absolutely.
You should enroll now and start when term does.
I've just got one favor to ask.
- What?
- Until you go, would you help me?
I really need your help.
I know I've run my business before but,
this is so different.
- Okay.
- [Amanda] I'm gonna take a drive,
turn in front of supermarket.
Can I get you anything?
- Get me a magazine or something. To keep me occupied.
- Anything in particular?
- I don't know. You can choose.
- All right. Well, try not to be normal, okay?
- I'll be fine.
(door opens)
(lighter clicks)
- Hello.
- Hi, sorry to bother you so late.
Is the owner around?
I'm sorry she's not.
I'm her daughter. Can I help you?
- Maybe you can.
A guy's happy to rent a room for the night.
That is if you have any vacancies, of course.
- I'm sorry that we aren't actually open for business yet.
- Are you closed for the season or something?
- We just moved in.
I think it'll be a couple weeks before ready for guests.
- Shit. It's just my luck.
The thing is that, I've just broken down and,
as you're aware, there's nothing around for miles.
I can't even get a reception to call the breakdown service.
- Yeah, it's pretty bad getting a signal out here.
- Tell me about it.
I've walked a mile in this rain
just to try and find some way to make a call.
I came across this place.
My prayers have been answered.
- I'm sorry, but-
- Listen. Do you think I can stay for just one night?
I have cash. I can pay double the room rate.
Just so that I thought back it's been a night in my car.
Especially in this weather.
- Look, I can't.
- Please.
I'll give you a healthy tip too.
- My mum will be back soon. Maybe you can ask her.
- Look, how much is your room rate?
- I'm not sure. About 60?
- How about I give you 120 for the room?
Double the rate.
Now, you can tell your mum I paid that
or you can tell her I paid you sixty and keep the rest.
I won't say a thing. It'll be between me and you.
- I'm not sure.
- I just want to get dry and put my head on a pillow.
I'll be gone first thing.
Please.
Thank you.
Thank you so much.
You're a lifesaver.
Name's Kyle.
- [Karli] Karli.
- [Kyle] I'm really grateful for this Karli.
- [Karli] Can you sign in here?
- [Kyle] Sure thing.
180 pounds. Here you go.
- That's too much. You said 120.
- I just wanna show you my appreciation. A little bonus.
- Are you sure?
- Of course I'm sure.
- Thank you.
- You're welcome.
(door squeaks)
- [Kyle] Fantastic.
If you just write down "hotel room",
paid 180 pounds and sign at the bottom
that'll get accounts department off my back.
- Okay.
(tears receipt)
- Thank you very much.
Which room is mine for the night?
- Well, you have your pick,
as you are our only guest.
- Well, in that case I think I need top floor please.
- Right this way.
(door opens)
- Very nice.
- I'll put breakfast down for you
in the dining room tomorrow morning.
- I was hoping to be out early.
- Well, I'll put out, just inn case.
For the money you've paid, the least I could do
is give you a decent meal.
- That's very kind of you.
- Oh, I guess I'll (indistinct)
- Thank you.
Good Night.
(dramatic music)
- Hey I'm gonna need a hand with this.
There's more in the car.
- Mum.
- I've got you a novel. Best seller apparently.
- Mum.
- [Amanda] What?
- Don't be mad.
- What's happened? What've you done?
- A man came to the house.
- Man? What did he want?
- A room. His car broken down and he was stuck.
- Oh please tell me you didn't let him in Karli, please.
- He had nowhere else to go. He was soaking wet through.
- Are you crazy?
- This is a guest house.
I couldn't just let him stay out in the rain.
- I know but didn't register this a new business yet.
We're not ready.
- It's just one night.
He's paid for the room and I haven't heard from him since.
I think he went straight to sleep.
- I've only been gone an hour.
- Mum.
- Okay. I suppose it won't hurt for one night.
What room did you put him in?
- Room one.
I told him I'd have breakfast ready in the morning,
but he said he'd be out early.
- Okay. Can you help me?
(footsteps approaching)
- Hey. You're up bright and early.
- Well, I promised our guest the breakfast would be ready.
He's still in his room.
- All looks great.
- Didn't you hear something strange last night did you?
- Like what?
- I don't know. Someone walking about or something?
- No. But that was probably
just Kyle looking for the bathroom.
You're gonna have to get used to people walking about, Mum.
- Kyle. Is that his name?
- It's what he told me.
- All done.
Hope he eats it before he goes. Otherwise we'll have to.
- You'll hear no complaints from me.
- Where you going?
- Gonna see if I can get some reception.
Need to call Kelly before she sets off to work.
- You can't leave me on my own.
What if he comes down and wants to talk to me?
- You'll be fine.
(cupboard opens)
(cupboard closes)
(Amanda gasps)
- Oh Christ.
- Kyle. Actually.
- Sorry if I startled you.
- It's fine.
I just didn't hear you come in, that's all.
- You must be the owner, and Karli's mum?
- Yes. Amanda. Nice to meet you.
- It's a lovely place you have here Amanda.
Very cozy and homely.
- Thank you.
- So, did you sleep well?
- I did.
I had a little trouble locating the bathroom
in the middle of the night but,
Karli must have forgotten to show me.
Other than that, everything as perfect.
- Good.
- I believe I'm your, first ever customer?
- Yes, actually you are.
We're not really ready to be open yet but,
Karli explained the situation with your car.
- Car?
- Yes.
Broken down and you couldn't
get a hold of the breakdown service.
- I don't know, must be a mix up.
I don't drive, let alone own a car.
Now I've seen this place before
but I've never stayed here.
So I decided I need a break from work
and I jumped on the train to get away for a few days.
- Few days?
- Yeah.
- Karli was adamant that you were just staying for one night
and you were leaving this morning.
- How peculiar? I've paid for three nights.
- But Karli wouldn't have got something like that wrong.
- I can assure you. Here.
- She said the cost of a room is 60 pounds a night.
As you can see, I've paid a 180.
- It's just so strange.
- Is Karli around? Maybe she can help sort this out.
I don't mean to overstay my welcome.
- She went out to try and phone a friend.
- There's something else I feel I should mention but
maybe I'm mistaken.
- No, I'd like to hear it.
- When I handed Karli the money,
I saw her put some on the blue tin in the shelf
and then the rest in her pocket.
I didn't think anything at that time.
I just thought some was for petty cash
and she'd transfer the rest in her own time.
But, if there's this confusion then-
- Could you excuse me for a moment?
- Yeah.
(cupboard opens)
- [Kelly] I'm sorry I put it in (indistinct) right now.
But if you leave a message,
I'll get back to you as soon as I can.
- Hey, it's me.
I was just checking in if you had a good night.
Call me back when you can, yeah?
Shit you probably can't 'cause it's shitty reception.
Anyway I,
I got some good news.
My mum came around and I could be with you
by the end of the summer.
Once the landline is up I'll,
I'll call you and give you the number.
Okay I-
(dramatic music)
(footsteps approaches)
- What the fuck?
Mom!
Everything okay?
- I need to talk to you Karli.
- There's something strange.
- Where's the money Karli?
- What?
- The money Kyle paid for the room. Where is it?
- I put it in the tin.
(metal thuds)
- 60 pounds' in there.
Where's the rest?
- That's all of it.
- Don't lie to me Karli.
I know he paid for three nights.
- No, he paid for one night.
- I saw the receipt you gave him.
Empty pockets.
- No.
- I'm not asking Karli. - No!
Get off me.
I can explain.
- 120 pounds exactly.
I never took you for a thief Karli.
- I haven't done anything.
- You know, I thought I really did a decent job
bringing you up on my own but this!
This make's me think otherwise.
- Listen to me, he's lying!
- Is everything okay?
Sorry I don't mean to intrude.
I was gonna make a drink and wondered if you'd like one.
- No, thank you.
Sorry you have to hear that.
We're just having a little misunderstanding.
- Tell her.
- Karli.
- I'm sorry, I've no idea what you're talking about.
- You asked to stay for one night
and you paid for one night.
- That's enough Karli!
- I am so sorry.
Karli seems to have become confused
about how long you've been staying.
- I understand okay, it's fine.
If you want me to leave, I'll go.
I'm sure I can find somewhere else to rent a few miles away.
- No! No.
It's fine. Really. You paid for three nights.
I insist you stay.
We will try and make the rest of your stays
pleasant as possible.
- Thank you.
As long as it's not too much trouble.
- [Amanda] Really, it's no trouble.
Karli, I'd like you to apologize to our guest.
- But mum.
- But nothing.
- I'm sorry.
- It's fine. It's just a simple misunderstanding.
Karli, I hate to sound rude
but I was wondering if I could have one of your cigarettes.
I've run out and there's no stores for miles.
- I don't smoke.
- I thought I saw you smoking last night in the doorway.
Sorry. I must have it all wrong. My mistake.
- Save it.
(gulps)
(knocks on door)
- Hello, just wanted to let you know your dinner's ready.
(knocking continues)
Kyle? Are you in there?
(crickets chirping)
(ominous music)
(Kyle breathing heavily)
(Karli screams)
(footsteps moving)
(clock ticking)
(bottle opens)
- Hello?
(lighter clicks)
- Good Morning.
- Oh. Good Morning.
Sleep well?
- I sure did.
It's (indistinct) a morning walk.
- I noticed.
I also noticed that
you covered up your windows.
- I have trouble sleeping
unless the room's completely dark.
I hope that's okay.
It's been that way since I can remember.
My mum used to say
that she had to cover every inch of my nursery room windows.
And also put the towel down the front of the door.
If she didn't, I'd spend the entire night
screaming the house down.
Weird huh?
- Yeah. Kind of. - [Karli] Mum!
I've been calling you.
- Oh sorry love. I didn't hear you.
- Phone's working.
- Is it?
- Yeah. (indistinct)
Some guy just called saying we're hooked up.
- Well that's great.
That's one less thing to worry about.
Just a hundred more to sort out.
- So you um...
You won't happen to be going
to the store or anything today would you?
- Yeah. Do you need something?
- Yeah. A few things.
Cigarettes for one.
- Well, I do need to get a few things so,
if you write me a list
I'll make sure that I'll pick it up later.
- I just can come with you.
Some of the things I need are rather personal.
- Yeah, I guess. Why not?
- [Kelly] I'm sorry.
It's been busy.
- Doing what?
- [Kelly] Stuff.
- What kind of stuff?
- [Kelly] Lot's of things.
- On your own or with someone else?
- I'm just taking Kyle to the supermarket.
So is there anything you need?
Okay.
- Are you still there?
- [Kelly] Yes.
- You didn't answer me.
- [Kelly] What do you want me to say Karli?
- I just want you to tell me the truth.
You've been acting weird ever since I got here and-
- [Kelly] It's not going to work.
- What?
- [Kelly] This, It's not gonna work.
I don't wanna do this over the phone
but you've left me with no choice.
- What are you saying?
- [Kelly] I can't be doing
with a long distance relationship.
- I told you. I'm coming back in a couple of months.
- [Kelly] I've met someone.
(car engine starts)
- [Karli] Don't do this to me Kelly.
- [Kelly] Sorry.
- [Karli] Who is it?
- [Kelly] I've got to go.
- Tell me. Who is she?
- [Kelly] I'm really sorry. Bye.
(car drives away)
(keys clanking)
(door closes)
(ominous music)
(door unlocks)
- You shouldn't be in here.
(punches)
(Amanda crying)
- [Amanda] Karli!
- Mum?
- Ah, you're awake.
I was worried I killed you for a moment there.
- What are you doing?
- What am I doing? I'm trying to survive.
That's what I'm doing.
I won't have funny business.
I don't wanna see either of you harmed
but make no hones about it.
If you try anything I'll shoot you both
without a moment's hesitation.
- What do you want?
- What do I want?
I want you to sit there and be quiet.
Both of you.
And don't worry.
That's what I want.
In the morning I'll be gone,
and you won't ever hear from me again.
- You okay?
- I think so. You?
- Yeah.
- Kyle, why have you got the gun?
- Protection.
- Protection from who?
- Us.
- Why do we need protecting?
Protection from what?
- He's crazy. He's destroyed his room.
- You're wrong. I am not crazy.
I'm just trying to keep something away.
- Keep what away?
- I don't know what they are exactly.
I'm being chased by some things.
- Why?
- Because I tried to help some people when I shouldn't have.
- You should always try and help people.
(Kyle laughing)
No you shouldn't.
I opened my door to two injured men a few months ago.
They said they were being chased.
I let them in and gave them a shelter
against my wife's wishes.
I was about to call the police when all went to shit.
I heard the windows smash.
The men tried to run away. They didn't make it.
These things, they found them.
And they killed them in a terrible way
you can't even imagine.
When they were done,
they turned their attention to me and my family.
I barely escaped.
- [Amanda] And your family?
- Why are they now after you?
- Because I tried to help those men
and doing so, I put myself into their sick old game.
- It's a game to them?
By terrorizing you?
- It's like a hunt.
I'm the fox.
- If they find you, will we be the next target?
- Only if they know I'm here.
Which is why I need your cooperation.
I never stay in one place more than three nights.
If we can make it first thing in the morning,
without any problems,
I'll be gone as soon as the sun comes up
and you'll be safe. I promise you.
- You are crazy.
- I am not crazy.
- I'm just desperate.
- Get the fuck out of my house!
- Shut up!
- Don't tell me what to do!
Go! Leave us alone!
- Calm! It's okay baby.
We're gonna keep calm and just do as he says.
- Why don't you leave us alone?
- First thing in the morning.
Until then I'm not going anywhere.
And neither are you.
Why don't you both try and get some sleep?
- You don't believe him do you?
- I'm telling you the truth.
- Like you did with the money you gave me?
I didn't lie to you. I never stole that money.
He gave it to me for letting him in!
- Is that true?
- I admit I lied there.
I used it to rent a room for a few nights
but I'm not lying now.
We are all in danger unless we all play it cool.
- Help! Help me! No!
- Quiet! - Please.
Please don't hurt my baby. Please.
- I wasn't planning on it but they will if they hear her.
I need you to be quiet.
If you make one sound, I will kill you.
Do you understand?
- It could be the police.
They'll break down the door and come in.
- It's not the police. I need you to listen and listen fast.
It's them. I know it's them!
And they can't come in unless they know I'm inside.
If they find out, they will come in here
and they will kill all of us!
- We haven't helped you!
- He won't see it that way!
- What if someone wanted a room?
What if they heard us screaming?
- Shit! Shit! Oh shit!
- Mum I'm so scared.
- Shit. They don't know I'm here. They don't.
They don't know I'm here.
- How do you know that?
- If they did, we'd all all be dead by now.
They might suspect I'm here but they don't know for certain.
They won't come in unless they know I'm here.
We need them to move on.
Amanda.
Come here. I need you to go to the door.
And get rid of them. Okay?
Do not tell them I'm here.
Do not run away or whatever you do, do not let them inside.
Just get rid of them.
- You want me to answer the door?
- Yes.
Just act like there's nothing wrong.
Your daughter's life depends on it. Okay?
- Mum don't.
- It's okay, I'm gonna come straight back.
Don't you hurt my daughter.
- I won't.
- Hello dear.
- Hello.
- Nice night, isn't it?
- How can I help you?
- I heard screaming. Is everything okay?
- Yes.
Everything's fine.
- It sounded as if someone
was in the most terrible of pain.
- No. No. Everything's fine. We're fine.
- May I come in?
- Come in?
- Yes.
I thought you might invite me in
for a nice cup of tea.
- No I'm-
Now's not a good time.
- Ah. I see.
If there is someone in your home that is listening
and you are in trouble,
just nod your head twice.
- No one home.
I'm fine.
Good night.
- [Old Woman] If he's in there, he won't get away.
You're all fucking dead!
He's crazy you know?
He preys on damaged women.
He kills them and fucks them! Fucks them and kills them!
(Amanda sobs)
- Mum?
- Amanda.
Amanda!
You believe me now, don't you?
Oh god. I need you to keep it together.
- What did you do?
- What do you mean?
- Why are they after you?
- I told you. I only tried to help.
- We're gonna die aren't we?
- Don't say that mum.
- Now, we're not. Sit down.
Sit down.
- Okay. Okay.
Okay, okay.
- They can get inside your head.
The can make you see things.
- This has happened before?
- Yes.
That's why I only stay for three nights.
Look, I'm not gonna lie to you,
we are all in serious danger.
If you do as I say, we will make it for the night.
In the morning, I'll be gone and so will they.
I need a drink and my tablets.
- You need your wits about you!
- Don't you-
Don't you tell me what I need.
- Listen to me.
They will do everything in their power
to find out if I'm in here.
They are listening.
They will look through windows. They will use their tricks.
These fuckers, they're smart.
Do you have any windows open in the house?
- My bedroom window is open.
- Yeah. Mine is too.
- You need to close them and the curtains too.
We can't let them get a look inside.
- Are you coming with us?
- No.
I can't move around the house
until everything's been blocked off
so all curtains and windows need to be closed.
- I wanna stay here.
- Please. You'll be fine.
- Can't we just call the police?
- Police can't do anything and if they come,
they would try to arrest me.
And they will know I've been inside here.
You'll be dead in seconds and the police?
They'll kill them too.
Do you get what I'm fucking saying here?
- Karli, we need to do this.
- I can't. I can't do this.
- Listen. Do you trust me?
Karli, do you trust me?
Okay. Then we can do this.
- Okay.
- Come on.
- Come straight back.
(Karli screams)
- Peek a boo, I see you.
How about that drink, bitch?
(tap opens)
- Mum!
- [Amanda] What is it? What's wrong?
- I saw them.
- What? What did you see?
- I saw them. They're outside just
stood still, watching me.
Mum, I'm scared.
- There's more of them outside.
- I thought there might be.
- What does this mean?
- It means we need to be very careful.
Would you have any black bags and some tape?
- We have parcel tape.
- That will do. Go and get it.
- What do you need it for?
- Just get it. I'll tell you when you get.
You're gonna need to do this.
- Me?
- I need you to cover every inch
of the window and the door.
- Okay.
- Okay. Don't leave any spot uncovered.
All right? Every inch, Karli.
- Hello.
My, aren't you a young pretty lady.
Haven't seen my son, have you?
I'm looking for him.
He's injured.
I'm worried.
- No.
- That's strange.
A little birdie told me that he was inside.
- Well, he's not.
(tape tears)
- No!
- You don't get to tell me how to live in my own house.
I want a fucking drink and I'm having one!
- Keep your voice down.
- [Old Woman] Why are you closing
all the windows and curtains dear?
It's like you're trying to hide something.
I just want you to know
my dear, if we find out
that he's in there,
I will slice your fucking throat and
cut your tongue you lesbian whore!
- Mum, what are you doing?
- I'm just having a little drink to steady my nerves.
- You're gonna get us all killed, you mean.
- You were the ones who brought those things here.
We never asked for any of it.
- Neither did I.
Did you cover the windows?
- Yeah.
- Every inch?
- Yes.
- I need to go to the bathroom. I'll be back in a minute.
Do me a favor. Get your mother to stop drinking.
- You don't get to tell my daughter what to do.
- They'll kill you and take your mother.
- Mum, I'm freaking out here.
I need you to be strong, not drunk, please.
- I'm sorry.
- Don't be.
- No. I should be taking care of you.
Not the other way around.
- What is it mum?
- Mum, don't.
- That fucker is stealing from us.
- No, it must be a mistake.
- No, it's not a mistake. These are my cards.
I don't believe it.
- We have about two hours until dawn.
What is it? What's wrong?
- It's a con. - What?
- It's a big fucking con!
Is this how you and your buddies get your kicks?
Terrorizing women in their own home?
- What are you talking about?
- These are my credit cards!
As have you got in here.
Are these from other people that you've conned?
Mr. C Davis.
Ms. Sandra Worthing.
- Look.
- It's just all a big lie, isn't it?
Those things out there. It's just people.
And they're all in on it too.
- No, let me explain.
- No.
Don't take another fucking step.
Do you think this is funny?
Do you?
My husband was killed in his own living room
over a fucking TV!
And you've done all this.
All this for a few pounds?
- Please, I know it looks bad. - Don't!
No bullets.
You robbed us with an unloaded gun.
- You were actually gonna shoot me.
I ran out of bullets two weeks ago.
I didn't come here to-
- Come on!
(Kyle grunts)
Fuck! Where's your phone!
- In my bag!
- Where's that? - Downstairs!
(footsteps approach)
- Help me! - I'm (indistinct)
- Get the fuck out of my house.
- Please, I can explain. I haven't lied to you.
- We called the police. You better go.
They're coming in a minute.
- No you haven't.
The line is dead and your mobile phone's in my pocket.
- We used Karli's phone.
- Karli's phone?
- Yeah, so you and your friends need to get out
before all the police arrive.
- You called the police using Karli's phone?
- Yeah that's what I said.
- The one that's on the dressing table?
The one that needs charge?
Look, I'm not here to hurt you. I don't wanna hurt anyone.
I know taking from you was wrong but I just need to survive.
(sobs) I just thought,
is it was cards the insurance will pay out.
The way I see it, I wasn't stealing from you.
I was stealing from the credit card company.
- [Amanda] (sobs) Please, leave us alone.
- I can't go anywhere.
Not until the fucking sun comes up.
(telephone rings)
(both gasps)
- Don't answer!
(telephone continues to ring)
- Don't answer it!
- Hello?
- [Greg] Hello? Amanda?
Amanda, can you hear me? It's me.
- Who is it mum?
- I know this may come as a shock to you.
I just needed to get away. I'm comin home.
I miss you. I miss Karli.
I love you both more than anything in the world.
I just want you to know that.
- Mum who is it?
- [Greg] Why don't you talk to me darling?
Just let me hear the sound of your voice.
- Please.
Leave us alone.
- [Greg] You don't want me home?
Okay, I understand. It's a lot to take in.
Say, you haven't got another man with you by any chance?
- What?
- Another man.
I'm looking for him and I think he's hiding out there.
Is he in there with you? I think he's dangerous.
- What's wrong?
(door opens)
- Keep away!
- Just listen to me, I'm not gonna hurt you.
- Leave us alone!
- Listen to me!
- Help us!
- What have you done?
(creature knocks on door)
- Fuck! We need to go now! Run!
- No! - Mum!
- No.
(blade stabs)
(Kyle grunts)
- Go! Go! Go!
- Come on!
- Help me.
Karli.
(Kyle breathes heavily)
(door knob turns)
(thuds on the ceiling)
- What's happening?
- They know I'm here.
They're not gonna stop until we're all dead.
- Why?
- I told you. It's a game to them.
And because you didn't do as I said,
they've now brought you into it.
You're just like me.
You're foxes being chased by blood hounds.
(Kyle grunts)
- Are you okay?
- (gasps) I just need a minute.
I just need a minute.
- What can we do?
Kyle! What can we do?
- There's not much we can do.
Except just wait in here
and hope they don't get in until the sun comes up.
Then we just run as far and as fast as we can.
- [Karli] Where?
- Anywhere. - [Amanda] Is it obvious?
Doesn't matter where we run. They're gonna find us.
- Your mum is right.
We can go a few days without seeing them
but they're always gonna find us.
- So I'm gonna be running for the rest of my life?
- Or dying for the last of it.
- God.
- [Amanda] Fuck!
What are they doing?
- Trying to make us leave. (grunts in pain)
- I'm really sorry about taking your cards.
- Doesn't matter now, does it?
- I mean it. I just needed money to survive.
(knocks on door)
(Old woman gasps heavily)
- You have been keeping him from me.
But you are just prolonging the inevitable.
And in doing so, you two have become interesting to me.
- [Karli] Leave us alone!
- You have most kept me from my quarry.
And I pity your ignorance.
You knew not what you did.
Therefore, I'm willing to bargain.
One of you may walk free.
Free to live a life
without having to constantly look over your shoulder.
- No.
- We have to go.
- No. Please.
- You heard him.
You can live your life. You can be free.
- Mum, no I need you!
- No, I've lost your dad already.
I've nothing to live for if I lose you.
- Don't open that door.
(Amanda strikes Kyle)
- Mum don't!
(continuously beats Kyle)
- I love you, baby girl.
- I love you too.
Can't we just run together?
- I'm not strong enough.
I've never been as strong as you.
I just want you to be free.
Go!
- No I can't.
- You can. And you will.
- He's gonna kill us both if you don't go.
Go now.
(Amanda screams)
(ominous laugh)
(blade slashes)
(footsteps running)
- [Kelly] Karli, I'm right here.
- Kelly?
Stay away from me.
Where's Kelly?
- [Kelly] I am right here.
- Why are you doing this?
- I wanted to play a game. That's all.
Now come to me.
- You said you'd let one of us go!
- And your mother told us that you were alone.
I like it when they fight back.
It makes the game a whole lot more interesting for us.
- This is not a game.
- Oh, but it is, Karli.
And you are moving around the board so gracefully.
- What do you want from me?
- I have a proposition for you.
Join us.
Become one of us.
Join us.
The rewards are worth more than any earthly possessions.
(grabs handbag)
(footsteps running)
- Mum!
Mum!
(crickets chirping)
- Oh no.
- [Amanda] Karli.
- No!
- Karli!
(smashes)
- Run.
Run!
(monster growls)
(car starts)
(outro music starts)
