Dinosaur from the Deep (1993)
He's for you, Kruger.
Don't move or I'll blow your brains out! No! The reward is bigger with him alive. Really, this car is becoming our main office! It's much more discreet, no bugs, no camera... Believe me, Norton, I prefer it this way for our meetings. I have good news for you. The lawyers have suceeded. We'll be able to execute Calvin. -You're serious? -Yes, my dear, they found a loophole. The death penalty is abolished nowadays but it used to exist in the past. -You mean that... -Exactly! We just need to send Calvin back in time and execute him legally. I confess it's a great idea. Who will be in charge? Kruger already offered his help. We need to pay him well of course. That's the heart of the matter. We don't have the funds for such a trip. Come on, Norton! That's why we're paying our lawyers a fortune. They discovered a scientific project, a time travel expedition during the age of the first dinosaurs. Their funding is insufficient. We'll just have to contribute our share. Pliers. Stop that guy from yelling, it's really upsetting in the end! Someday someone will hear their screams and we'll be in trouble. We can't have trouble with a Number 0. He's already dead. I just had him ressurected for this experiment. For the dead he has quite a voice! -And what did you find? -Fear effects on the pupil. When the pliers approached the eye, he saw the picture with a great intensity! -Alright but what about commercial implications? -I don't care. It's not important. That's enough, Hernandez! I've suffered your fake experiments for ten years! Profitability! I want profitability! We're certain that remains of the jurassic era have survived on our twin planet Terra. Mainly dinosaurs. Satellite pictures are clear. Look at this one. It's a joke! This picture is part of the Playboy archives! No, it's a real satellite picture. Although the she-creature in evidence strongly intrigued us. I'm beginning to understand why you need additional funding to put up this expedition. Additional funding granted. In exchange you will have to take this criminal and his executioner aboard. He will do his job on Terra with the method of his choice and he will come back with your crew. Calvin will be buried on Terra. If I'm following you, this criminal will become a Number 0. -I'm suggesting an experiment. -That's enough, Hernandez! You cried enough to be in charge of this dinosaur hunting trip! Forget about the rest. You heard? It's our lucky break! I'll make arrangments to have you in the crew. Sixty days! Sixty days and sixty nights! What's the idea? Sacking Hernandez from the project on a whim! It's me who deposited a patent for the cardiac reanimator. Deposited, not invented. It was Hernandez's invention and each sale makes you richer day after day. The patent was deposited in my name. That's the only thing that matters. Everyone can do that! Each man has the right to be lucky once in his lifetime! But you're lucky everyday! You're hinting at Peguy, I presume? Her fortune helped me to start but it was a great cost all the same. It's been 15 years that I supported her. Yes but you can't leave her since she has all the shares. You could be tactful and try and avoid mentioning her when we're alone. Sometimes I want to kill her. In this case I could kill you too because you would not stay single! Spencer, what's the situation? We have not deviated from our course. In exactly 3 days we'll reach Terra. Wake up Professor Nolan. Look at the geniuses! They want to explore the galaxy and they can't stand a rocket-ship air-blast! Where is Nora? Surprised, my dear husband? Peggy, not you! How did you manage to get embedded? Don't worry! Your dear Nora is snoring but she will wake up soon like everyone on earth! Don't you think I'm a good substitute for her? And I think that I can do her job as well. I look forward to be photographed with these beasts. It won't be a very pleasant trip, you know. It's not a picnic. -You will stay aboard during the expedition. -Certainly not. -Never! And it should be funny to see you whack this man! How will you manage to do it? A bullet between the eyes. On the first day I hope. I'm so excited to see him dying. There's plenty of time. Asshole. If he's still alive tomorrow, I will allow myself to do the job in your place. Rest assured. If Kruger don't I will do it. Hey, photograph man! Be ready with your camera! When this scum will whack me it will be the scoop of your life! There will be no picture. Then maybe you will have the picture of my escaping! I don't think so. Look at these vultures! They will kill themselves to get the reward! It's now or never for experiment Number 0! It's not the time for this. We'll be busy enough with the dinosaurs. Take him out of here. This part of the mission is not to my liking. Hurry back. Let's go. That's it! We're on Terra's orbit. Breathable atmosphere but oxygen content slightly lower than that of the earth. On the other side the probe reveals a significant amount of pollution. We knew that. Previous dictators used Terra as a garbage planet for earth. It's full of toxic nuclear wastes. It must be dangerous. I told you so. More reason to stay quietly aboard the ship. Would I be so safe with all these young men in here? -Of course, I'd never cheat! -I'm trusting you! Not sure we'll see a dinosaur. Maybe the pollution killed them all. What is that? It's proof that pollution has not decimated all the human life on this planet. The growl came from this area. I'm certain there are dinosaurs in this forest. Help! Help me! Hurry up! Help me! You didn't move, bastard! You would be happy with me dead, won't you? Why are you saying that darling? I was paralysed by fear, that's all. Shut up! You dirty bastard, you could help me! I'm not paid to help you. It could be a shinbone with the end chewed-up. Marrow is gone. -By a dinosaur? -No doubt about it. But nothing proves the shinbone is from an human being. Given the size of the footprints this one must be huge. They're nearby. How could we approach them without taking too many risks? We need something to lure them. A bait. They're flesh-eating animals. We should use the murderer to lure them. If they don't smell blood they won't come. We have to hurt him. You're right. We have to hurt him enough for him to bleed out without dying too soon. A hand is enough. I agree. Time's running out. Our reserves are not inexhaustible. Kruger, finish your job. Why now? You have to do it anyway. Let's get rid of this chore. -Before we meet the monsters. -Oh, yes, right now, right now! You have no right. You had no right either bringing me on this planet. I know my rights. Your rights? On this deserted planet? Be reasonable man. Better to die for the scientific cause than from a bullet in the head. Come on, both of you! Seize him! Keep going! He just fainted! Drag it several meters to distribute the blood. We just have to wait now! We'll camp here and take turns keeping watch. I can't sleep! His whining gets on my nerves! We could have camped a little farther. We must be ready if a dinosaur appears. Only blood can lure them. But it's really annoying! He could suffer in silence, this scum! Take shelter! All of you! Quick! No, don't shoot! (Inaudible) -At least we could bury the poor Chris. -I'll keep watch. But you could go and try to get his camera. Maybe he took interesting pictures that we could sell. We'll see that tomorrow. It's too late for Chris. And nobody will steal his camera tonight anyway. We must run away! It's too dangerous! Take cover! There's another one! You asked for trouble, you got them for sure! One makes mistakes in his life. Kruger waited too long before killing Calvin. My mistake was this damn expedition. And my marriage! Where is Peggy? Forget that fool! We have no way of communicating with the rocket-ship. And our compas is broken. Maybe they're looking for us. Maybe they're inside a dinosaur's belly! This expedition is a disaster! All these years of preparation to end up sweating our way out of this shithole! And yet we had anticipated every step. Except that dinosaurs run faster in reality than on your damn books engravings. My make-up case! Don't move! He didn't see us yet! I won't abandon my make-up case to these damn beasts! I'm going for it. I'm OK to die but with my face made up. No! Get him away! Help me out! You see! I made him run away! Let's go. The forest will make a good shelter. And now? A camera disappearing and a prisoner escaping. It can't be a stroke of luck. I don't understand. Asshole scientists! Did you ever think that maybe this planet was inhabited? It's impossible! Maybe not. In the past this planet was used to store toxic waste. Maybe one of the crew was stranded here, I don't know. They must be very old now! Where is she coming from, that one? Who are you? Where do you come from? Do you speak english? My name is Tania. I live here. And I saw your rocket-ship landing. Nobody ever landed here before us. This planet was only a garbage dump. Come on, relax. You're welcome on this planet. I'm going to perform the greeting dance. A splendid alien! Evidently she's not wearing the most cumbersome costume! Where do you live? The area is dangerous. Do you want to join us in our expedition? Are you crazy? It's the last thing we need. This guy is completely nuts! I need to mate now! Do you want to come with me? Wait. Not here. Follow me. Hello? Hello? Do you copy me navigation bridge? It's Nolan here. Do you copy? Hello? I'm listening. Hello? Hello? Do you copy me navigation bridge? There's no answer. Take his weapon. Give it. I'm sorry if I can't shake your hand but I've become a sort of a Captain Hook of the Jurassic park! Me, I'm Red-beard, the most ugly girl in the area. But I'm failing in my duties. We're spoiling your little pets these days. Tomorrow we'll take care of the others. Wait for me! I'm certain you're glad to see me! I'm so sure of that I would stake my hand on it! Come on, let's go. I've brought you fresh meat! Great! Where is Kruger? What have you done with him? It's horrible! You too will satisfy her pets appetite! You tortured me! You mutilated me! It's your turn now! Don't let this criminal make an accomplice of you! Come on, Harry! Do something! -Do something yourself! -You're not a man! And you, Hernandez, you could try to do something! My dinosaurs deserve to live like you. Come on, my darlings, eat up! Come on, Calvin. They like to dine quietly. Nothing! Radio contact is cut off! We must look for them. We're going to be eaten by a monster! What a glorious end! I told you so. -I managed to get free! -Hurry up now and untie us! It's coming back! Hurry up! Hurry up! I could get you free but... I need you to promise me something Number 0! Ok. Make it fast. My make-up case! Dead! They're all dead! All of them? Follow me. We're going to the rocket-ship. So long dinosaurs, so long savage girl! This expedition was a complete mess. All these dead people. And Calvin was not executed. We missed a good show! I'll have to account for all this. Maybe not. We can still say that Calvin was executed. They will never know the truth. We'll say she did the job. -I'm satisfied if I get the reward. -You mean half the reward. The other half will be the price of our lies... and our remorse. -Harry? -Yes. I was followed in the corridor by some sort of monster. What do you mean? -It's true. I swear. A kind of cat-monster. -A cat? -Here? -You've got to do something! I've seen it. It looked like a big cat! What's that noise? It's that big cat like I told you. It can't be a cat. Or it's swallowed a jet engine. I'll have a look. But it's not possible! Don't worry! She'll take care of it. Despite her tough looks she has pets at home. Keep quiet. I'm going there. Stop it! Get it outta of me! Let me go! Help me! At last! How did she die? Her throat was torn. -She was bitten by a cat-beast. -It was really a ghastly sight! What is a cat-beast? It's another experiment gone wrong from this damn Hernandez! I saw him bringing something suspicious aboard. Suspicious? What does she mean? It's true. He was hiding something. We even lost touch with him at one point. Confirmed. Why didn't you tell me? A parcel? What shape? I didn't get a good look. It was round or oval. Oh no! An egg. He did not bring an egg aboard! An egg... A dinosaur's egg. How could he take the liberty of bringing samples without warning the crew? -Or me! I'm the most concerned here! -This Hernandez is a madman! Mad and dangerous. Captain, we must act now! We must find him before the beast gets too comfortable! Where is he? Bring him here immediately! -We must find him and condemn him! -He's a madman! Where is he? Bring him here immediately! Hernandez, what did you bring aboard the ship? I hope it's not a dinosaur's egg? Answer now! Someone is dead! -What is your answer Professor? -We're going to die now. One after the other. What is he holding in his hand? Show it. It's horrible! What's happening to your hand? It's horrible! -Look at this! He's going to contaminate all of us! -It stinks! You know the rule in this instance. Amputate or burn. Quick! Make a choice! Come on, let's burn him! -Come with us! -No! No! Can we get a look? Come on, let's roast him! You like that! It smells good! The other side now! Count on us, Hernandez, we have the cure for you! -No contact at all. -Try again. Nothing. Contact is cut off. It's ghastly! She can't get the reward anymore. We'll have to talk about it. Unit #5 is not answering neither. Those winos are probably sleeping it off in a corridor. I can't reach Unit #5. Liaison is cut off. Hello? Unit #5? They're probably still sleeping! Look! What is he doing? Help me! Help me! Help me! Help me! Help me! What's happening now? It's the fault of that bloody fool of Hernandez. He brought this beast aboard the ship. I can't believe it! I'm afraid! Harry! It has bitten me! Stop playing the barefoot Contessa! Let's get out of here pronto! You're detestable! It will restrain the dinosaur for a while. Open the door! Open the door! I want to get out! I want to get out! Let me out! Let me out! Let me out! -Where are the others? -Dead. All of them. -Professor Hernandez too? -Especially Professor Hernandez! He deserved what he got. -Other exits are out of reach. -The beast is gaining ground. It will have us too. It's too dumb to die like that! We must find a way out! We need to stay together. It's behind the door. The door is tight but the beast gets stronger and it won't hold him very long. Listen! It's silent now. It moves around. Quick! Let's hurry! Listen! It's silent now. It moves around. |
