Alone in the Dark II (2008)

- Easy.
- Easy.
Okay. Come on.
- Cool off.
- Take some breaths here.
It's your responsibility now.
- Just you.
- The signal stopped.
Hey, listen. We got about a half hour
till daylight. We can make it.
- Come on. Let's go.
- Get up.
You have got to focus.
You don't stand a chance against it,
not out here.
Not out here, but maybe in there.
- Come on. Let's go.
- Come on. Attaboy.
- Got him? Yeah.
- You got him?
Now he says we only got to take the baggies
once. Fucking.... Aw, shit.
Shit! Stupid hippies.
Next time, I use Puerto Ricans.
Swish.
[Woman yells]
[people chattering]
Hold on....
[music stops]
[Man groaning]
Come on. Come on!
Shit.
Put him over there. Come on.
You all right? Yeah.
[mouthing words] She's not getting it, Doug.
Not tonight, she's not.
- "That's it. That's it!"
- Getting closer. Burn it.
Burn it!
"Nothing must remain."
Getting closer!
- We are going to make it. Right?
- Maybe you could shoot me.
- She might leave you alone.
- Wouldn't do any good.
She's got it, too.
How far?
10 yards.
8 yards.
5 yards.
Showtime, people.
I can feel her.
Fire! Fire!
No! No! No!
You Carnby?
Edward Carnby?
Maybe.
- How did you get the number?
- Shep gave it to me.
He says you can help me out.
You know stuff about the occult....
.... ghosts and shit.
That's delicate stuff,
and it don't come cheap.
Yeah.
Yeah, I know.
He said you'd get us into the coroner's office.
So, I can see the bodies.
He tell you this?
Shep says a lot of things,
and most of them don't make any sense.
But he did mention
something to me about a dagger.
A little black dagger about this big.
I might be interested in that.
What's wrong with you, man?
You were there when those
three people got butchered,
and now you want to see their dead bodies?
The dagger, Xavier. You want
my help? I need to see it.
Carnby, come on.
Make sure nobody's coming.
- Xavier, come on.
- What, are you scared?
How did you know how to get in here?
It's not about how.....
....It's about how much.
Keep your mouth shut.
It looks like it exploded.
She has got it, too.
Have you ever seen anything
like this before?
Aah, fuck.
Geez, she touched the dagger.
These lines....
...they work their way through your body.
Then they try to control you.
It reacts to light. Yeah.
It reacts... It....
Hey.
What's wrong with you?
....I can't control it anymore!
How long have you had this for?
Since I touched the dagger.
It started in my hand, and it's....
....it's all through my body.
The "dagger's" real.
Take it.
Just be careful.
Don't cut yourself.
Yeah.
I thought that was cool at first, too.
It's the lines.
A witch's mark.
When you first touch the dagger...
...there's a burning feeling.
It's light at first.....
......but it builds.
She gets....
I have had these dreams...
...in my head...
...and I can hear her voice all the time.
If you don't do what she says...
...she comes and does it for you...
...like she did with them...
- Who?
The witch....
...The witch that dagger belongs to.
You said something about a map...
...that one of them carved into himself.
That one.
"K, E," and some lines.
We have to find the right map,
so we will know the location.
She is coming.
Is there another way to get out of here?
You know how much power that dagger has?
How it works?
So, "it" was hidden in here?
I can feel her.
Hey, are you sure that they didn't take...
...what was placed in the dagger
and place it somewhere else?
Do you want power?
More power than you have ever imagined?
What price you want to pay, Carnby?
What are you willing to pay?
You belong to her now.
I did it!
I did what "you" wanted!
I did what "you" wanted!
- Where is the dagger?
- Hey! Where is the dagger?
- It's here.
- He stabbed him with it.
- The signal's getting closer.
- We have to go.
We are going to have to take him with us.
- It's too late.
- The signal's already in range.
She's coming for our friend here. He is
lit up like a Christmas tree. 10 yards.
It's the only chance we have.
5 yards.
This is the best I can do for you, pal.
No change.
And this one?
- His wound is too fresh.
- She can't see him yet.
No change.
Wait! No more signal.
The knife has started to dissolve....
- Pack up.
- We are taking him with us. No....
If he puts us in any danger,
I will shoot him.
I think it's starting.
- Can you hear me?
- Can you hear me?
Ask him what he sees.
- It's that piece of blade.
- It's killing him.
He won't make it.
Pull over.
Pull over!
Got him?
Faster!
Here. I will do it, Dad.
Who are you?
Hold him down!
Damn it!
Where is the dagger?
You think you can get it out?
Okay, let's get him from the street.
Come on!
Is it over?
It's just starting.
I can't get this damn thing to work.
Dad, he's awake.
Ah, okay.
- Well, keep trying.
- All right. All right.
Keep trying.
- How is he doing?
- How do you feel?
- Where am I?
- With friends.
Now listen up, Carnby.
That's your name, right?
Now, you have been stabbed.
As a result, you are going to see things...
...visions, dreams.
Now, we need to know exactly what you see,
and in particular,
we need to know the location.
Now, you can either work with us,
or you will end up a dead man.
I need a phone. Whatever happens...
...don't ever look into
the mirror in your dreams.
If you look into the mirror,
the enemy will know where we are.
If this happens,
Boyle here will shoot you.
Welcome to my house.
Let me go.
We are doing this to save your life.
I promise.
- The blade has deteriorated.
- It was in his body too long.
What worries me even more is that the
reliquiaes that were inside it are missing.
He needs somebody who knows how
to deal with that kind of wound.
We can't take him to a hospital.
It's not a normal wound.
No, I am not talking about a hospital.
I am talking about someone...
...who knows what's involved here.
If anybody can help him, "Abner" can.
I told you never to mention his name again!
Now, let me tell you something.
Carnby will be dead and gone....
....long before I ever invite Abner Lundberg
to set foot in this house again.
Now, your grandfather made his biggest
mistake in getting involved with him.
I will not make that same mistake.
- What about the vision of yours?
- Do you really feel them coming?
Who are you?
Come to me.
Carnby!
- Where is he?
- He is gone. He got my weapon.
Carnby!
Carnby!
- He is over here.
- He is over here.
We are losing him.
Is he looking into a mirror?
I know who you are.
You are not going to shoot him. You
shoot him, when I tell you to shoot him.
- What about us?
- Go get the syringe.
- Look at me.
- Look at me.
Right in the heart? I have to find the right
ventricle. She is looking through his eyes! Now.
I can see you.
I know who you are.
- I know who you are.
- Huh?
Are we on time?
Looks like.
Go see Abner.
He will come.
You looked in the mirror.
- I know you did.
- You saw her.
You are putting us all in danger.
No matter what you do,
the witch will come for you.
Yeah, I know.
She is after the dagger.
What did you see?
I saw a woman in a lab.
- A man was there torturing her.
- Where is the dagger?
He dug a grave for her
in the middle of the room.
She was supposed to be killed,
wasn't she?
But something went wrong.
What you are seeing happened many years ago.
That man was my father.
- Look for hints to the location of the lab.
- Why?
Because that's the only place it will stop.
We are fetching someone who can help you.
- Why are you doing all this?
- She isn't after you yet.
Some things are worse than death.
She wants my daughter.
That's why the witch has returned.
If you are looking for the clinic,
it's closed today.
- Mr. Lundberg.
- Mr. Abner Lundberg? Uh-huh.
- I am Natalie Dexter.
- Do you remember me?
Please sit.
I hear you never wanted anything to do with
your father's hocus-pocus. She is back.
- She is, huh?
- And it's worse than ever.
Well, it's none of my business.
I did what I could.
I have a different life now.
We need your help.
Do you really think you could resist her?
She destroyed your grandfather.
She will destroy your whole family
and everyone you have ever known.
- I have the mark.
- She wants me. Just like my mother.
There is something about the Dexters
that attracts her. Oh, yeah.
How long have you had this?
For three weeks.
I went to the doctor at first,
but then the dreams started.
Why didn't you go to your father?
You just expect me to sit around
and wait for her to come get me?
Listen to me.
She was after your grandfather, the Dexters.
It was revenge.
- He was the one that hunted her down.
- Wow.
- I felt that vibe.
- No. Don't touch it.
After all these years,
I am immune to witchcraft crap.
It's real.
There is a piece of the heart
missing from the inside.
Looks like this blade has been used.
- We have someone who was injured by it.
- And they are still alive? He is.
Did they find the hag's grave? No. And he
doesn't have much time. We need your help.
Well...
...if we'd only had this in the day.
My grandfather told you things that he never
told my father. You were his friend.
- What?
- Hank Willis is on the phone.
His cow died after she took
the medicine you gave her.
He wants his money back. He does, huh?
You tell him, I gave him a remedy.
- I told him no food, just water.
- Tell him to go to hell.
Leave us.
You stay.
- It's going to be all right.
- I am going to take care of you.
He has got slivers in his wounds. This dries
them. Hold it right on there and press it.
- Harder. Harder.
- There you go. Okay.
This is making you visible to the other side.
- You are glowing like a thousand-watt bulb.
- What's that? It's for you.
You got yourself involved in something,
that's way beyond your abilities...
I will tell you that much.
This dagger....a very amazing weapon.
It's made of amostite, Very valuable.
Did you want it for the
blade or what it could do?
"Rumors and myths."
You want to buy eternal life......
...with the deaths of others?
You are fighting a witch.....
....that's hundreds of years old.
She has the knowledge and the ability
far beyond anything we have ever known.
She can slip insert her soul into another body.
She solved the riddle of immortality.
You can't move while I am doing this.
This is a "radioactive" solution.
- Hold on.
- Right there. Right......
Yeah. There.
- It makes you invisible to the other side.
- It cancels out the aura.
If your hair falls out tomorrow....
...then it was too strong.
- He will sleep.
- He will sleep now.
Your boyfriend is going to
get us in a lot of trouble.
- He is not my boyfriend.
- Really?
I suggest you keep it that way.
- He is an idealist.
- They are the worst.
- I know.
- I was one once myself.
That dagger shouldn't cause
any serious injury.
It kills the soul, not the body.
We are on the verge of
finding the witch's lair.
Thought you might be interested.
After all, you spent
a lot of time looking for it.
Whatever you find....
will have been dead long ago.
Do you still have those things
my father gave you?
They wouldn't be of any use to you.
- Do you still have them?
- I burned them years ago.
I have made my peace with the occult.
- I don't bother it.
- It doesn't bother me.
They are all dead, you know.
Everyone that worked with your father,
they are all dead.
They tried to do good,
and they end up doing evil.
You are going to mess this thing up, baby.
The great "Abner Lundberg" is afraid.
You know, a lot of people died around you back
then and it didn't seem to bother you. Oh, no?
You were my father's favorite. If your
father could see you now, he'd laugh.
You nauseated me then,
and you nauseate me now.
He's got two days, maybe three.
Or, just maybe...
....the hag will come and take him tonight.
I'd rather not be here, if she does.
"Don't touch."
- You are reading the EM frequencies?
- We are looking for specific patterns.
Our witch broadcast a bunch of them.
- Any readings?
- Should there be?
- Don't worry.
- We have got a few surprises for her.
She is already here!
Oh, shit!
Okay, everybody, upstairs.
Carnby, come on!
A whole panic room?
- Carnby, get in here!
- Come on!
Okay, everybody.
Stay away from the wires. Put in the UV.
- Can you turn off that alarm, please?
- The lights won't hold her forever.
This isn't the first time
we have had company here.
What the hell was that?
- Is she already in the house?
- She is on the roof.
- Carnby, is she already in the house?
- No.
- She is not here because of me.
- She wants the dagger.
But you can't go down there now.
The two of us will go.
- My kind of mission.
- Good luck.
- Hey.
- Not you.
- I can feel her presence.
- Can you?
We got to get back upstairs.
What's going on?
She can't get in here. Not with this light.
Don't move.
The generator should come on in a second.
- There is something there!
- Come on!
- She is coming!
- Fire!
- Carnby, you are no good to us down here.
- It's your responsibility.
Let's go fix that generator.
- Okay, go slow.
- She responds to movement.
Come on, baby.
Come on!
I am not waiting any longer.
Oh, God.
- Natalie.
- Wait.
Natalie.
God.
- You can't use the weapon.
- What?
It's the "tracer" bullets.
- Dexter.
- Dexter!
Trust me.
How did you do that?
- Daddy!
- Don't come any closer!
- Don't do it!
- You know what to do. No!
- She has waited a long time for this.
- No.
Your father was a good man.
She is coming back tonight, isn't she?
She will find us,
no matter where we are.
You are going to be safe.
I am sorry about what happened
to your father, Natalie.
I am sure he had some idea
how it might play out.
Everyone has to die in the end.
The dagger's incomplete.
You know what's missing.
What's driving the dagger is weak....
too weak to have any effect.
We need a piece of the witch's
heart to reactivate it.
Everything you need
you will find in the witch's lab.
I have washed my hand of "her".
My grandfather trusted you. If he found
anything out, he must have told you about it.
What do you know about
"your grandfather", Natalie?
He fought against the witch, just like you.
He didn't fight against the witch.
Your grandfather fought for her,
and ultimately ended up killing for her.
- Why don't you cut the crap, Lundberg?
- No, no. Please, I am telling the truth.
"He" was obsessed with the occult.
You know, she needed another vessel...
....and at that same moment....
....your mother was becoming less and less
tolerant with your grandfather's insane ideas.
A daughter-in-law was now becoming bothersome.
- Your mother became the bait.
- Just the bait.
Just another sacrifice he had to make
to find out about more secrets......
....and her body
was the witch's asking price.
- You didn't know your grandfather.
- You don't remember him.
Your grandfather gave up fighting
for good a long time ago.
All he wanted was these secrets
of eternal life at all costs.
His reward for a piece of your mother's
heart... was a few seductive secrets.
- And then she demanded more.
- She demanded another body.
You were 3 years old, Natalie.
He told "her" that......
when you reached the right age,
he would give you to the witch.
Your grandfather sold you......
.....and now she intends to come and collect.
This is all I have from the good old days.
There has to be another box.....
a green Army crate with a red cross on it.
"This is everything."
How much of your soul have you
already sold, Carnby? Hmm?
I would never kill anyone just to learn
a few secrets. Sure you would.
And I know who I am.
But this isn't about just me anymore.
You know, you're an idealist.
People have to be careful.... that
they don't get damaged from your mistakes.
Oh.
Such an old man.
This is hopeless, by the way.
And he left only vague references.....
to where this place might be.
What are "these letters" here?
We cut this whole thing into quadrants.
I have looked for this thing. I have searched
for years and never found it, "K, E. K, E."
- This was Kevin's quadrant.
- It was in the north of the park.
- It could be in the park.
- It could be near the park.
What is that?
"KE-12."
- It's right here.
- Wow.
Where is Natalie?
Oh, my God.
Natalie! She's materializing during the day!
Natalie!
Martha......
Where's my gun?
- Throw the dagger! Natalie!
- Throw the dagger! Out of my way.
MARTHA:
Take it.
- It's not the gun!
- It's the bullets!
- Throw the dagger now!
- Throw it!
- Don't touch it!
- Don't touch it!
Are you okay?
- I saw her, not like in the cellar.
- I saw her face.
You feeling better?
- I will be fine.
- You might need this.
If you find that witch's lab, be careful. She
will have all kinds of traps and other measures.
You know, really.
If her remains are buried there......
we will find them.
Are you sure it's here?
- It's right here.
- Okay.
We shouldn't be here when it gets dark.
The lab has to be in direct
contact with the ground.
Are you okay?
It has to be here.
The others couldn't sense it.
That's why they weren't able to find it.
What is this?
- We are below the foundation.
- It's here.
- There's no way in.
- Maybe we can pry it open.
- I am going in. Wait a minute.
- I am the only one who can fit.
Well?
There is some kind of mechanism in here.
Watch your step. We have to get out
of here before it gets dark outside.
Let me get something.
Where's the dagger?
- Come on.
- Show me the way.
- Give it to me, Natalie.
- Bring me the dagger.
- Come on. Be a good girl.
- Give me the dagger. No!
"Don't step on the red buttons."
Natalie.
Wait.
I am getting a jack from the car.
- It's getting dark.
- Shit!
She's coming!
Are you okay?
She can't get in here, can she?
It's her lab.
Let's do it.
- Buried alive.
- Witches' ultimate revenge.
- It's a message..... for Abner.
- It's in code.... Um...
....he used a straightforward encryption.
- It's not difficult.
She's trying to get in.
Wait here.
Sorry.
My grandfather wanted to bury the witch here
in her lab, but I don't see a grave anywhere.
Because there isn't one.
It was never here.
The foundation shift did it.
- Roll up your sleeve.
- Save that for later.
- It's getting worse.
- You might not have a later.
- We have to get out of here first.
- The sewers are back there.
- The lab isn't sealed off anymore.
- She can get in. Where's the dagger?
EDWARD:
It's starting.
NATALIE:
Edward, she is coming!
NATALIE:
The torch is acting up.
EDWARD:
Natalie, let's go.
- Hurry.
- We have to keep moving.
I don't think she wanted us here.
It was here.
EDWARD:
You need the dagger to open the wall.
EDWARD:
That's why she couldn't escape.
- Hey, come here. You okay?
- It's started. Where is.....?
You belong to her now. She has a claim
on you....... and you're here to collect.
- This isn't you, Edward.
- You can fight against it.
- You should know someone always has to die.
- Well, it's not going to be me.
Natalie.
Do it.
Without the witch, that thing's useless.
I told her my code was too easy to crack.
- It's not "Kill the witch."
- It's "Free the witch."
"Kill Natalie."
This is not Natalie.
- Oh, shit! Watch her!
- Where's Natalie? Where's the dagger?
Don't give it to her!
Ow! Damn! I will kill him first, and then
I will take care of your little girlfriend.
She is still in here somewhere.
- How long can you stay in the body for?
- One minute? Two?
You know the heart must be pierced.
This is what you want. I can sense
you are dying to see how the ritual works.
Forget about the girl. I can give you
knowledge beyond your wildest dreams.
We can do things together she'd never do.
Do it.
Do it.
"You foolish man."
We could have had a lot of fun. I would
have retrieved it before it dissolved.
- Don't stop till she is dead.
- Wait. Wait.
Wait.
Wait.
- Natalie had to die to destroy the witch.
- Her old son of a bitch grandfather knew that.
- He knew it.
- What are you doing?
- She is already dead, isn't she?
- No, no. Listen to me.
- Wait, wait. Wait. Use the blade.
- Use the dagger. Come on!
- Use the dagger. Yeah. Use the dagger.
- Come on! Trust me. Come on. Please.
- I swear to God, it won't hurt her.
- Use it. It kills the soul, not the body.
- Trust me.
- Trust me. Trust me.
Yes.
Oh!
Oh!
Don't ever do that again.
- Yeah, I got it.
- I got it. Thank you. Oh, God.
