Skinwalkers (2006)

Yee nadlooshi - The Navajo
term for 'Skinwalker'
Human beings, who, through
the blood of other humans...
have gained supernatural powers.
Some call it a gift - others a curse.
A war has begun - between those who
mean to end the curse,
and those who do not want
to lose their beastly powers.
According to the indian legend,
the end of all Skinwalkers...
will be brought about by a 13 year old boy.
There are some things in this world
so frightening...
that we pretend
they don't exist...
the stuff of nightmares...
we tell ourselves...
there no such thing...
but the truth is
they are out there...
and closer then we fear...
Silver bullets
Nice touch
now caretaker...
it looks like your out of a job...
you and your people have
been defending...
these pathetic creatures
for a long time
but it will all be over soon enough
we'll attack each of these camps
and destroy them...
and this disgrace to our true nature
will be over forever
what was on the tape?
you'll never find the boy in time...
now...
it can't be...
it already began...
the legend is true...
where is the boy?
tell me...
not in this lifetime
hurry.
gather your men
we have four days
to full moon
take this to Varek
he goes north...
tel him there's no time to lose
you find this boy or
it's the end of us
you can see for yourself...
the boy is safe...
but with the red moon
we should be ready for anything
just to make sure
you be careful
the red moon's power will be very strong
you will have to lock down
until this is over
I've gotta go, good luck and stay sharp
he's gonna make it
we all are
this isn't a dream anymore
four more days
well that's good news
the bad news is now y'all gotta
to spend the night downstairs
It's probably just a fuse
I'll be right back
Ralph
Ralph
Varek...
oh my God
Tell me when Varek
and the're all dead
so it's true
the boy's alive
where is he?
don't hurt him
that's not what I want...
if you co-operate with us,
then you will be spared
along with your husband
if you choose otherwise then you will be
forced to watch him suffer
in agony allowing you one last look
at the life that you elected to end
do you understand?
good
now...
where is the child?
we don't know
we never have
she's fucking lying
they gotta know, Varek...
you think we hadn't thought
of something like this
of someone like you
do you think you're a martyr
you might as well be holding the blade
no...
no...
this everything is?
that's it
you believe her
it doesn't make any sense,
it is not possible Varek
it makes perfect sense...
they can't tell us what
they don't know...
no matter what we do to them
it's foolproof
the're dying for some kid
the've never even seen?
they have faith...
it's all they need
think of something
this kid is out there
I'd rather die then go back to that
we'll find the child
there's no alternative
we'll find him Sonya
You can't even see the kid's face...
so that's how they did it
boosted the morale
without risking a thing
we're wasting our time Varek...
we only have four more nights
to find this kid
so
wait...
did you see that?
what?
right there
look at the mirror
Huguenun...
Come on baby breathe
please, just breathe
Will he can't breathe. I gave him a shot
this morning. I don't understand
The inhaler doesn't help
he just keeps getting worse and worse
Rachel, he's going to be OK
Tim...
I want you to breathe deep
and don't move...
Come on sweeetie
what is it?
it smells like crap
hey baby
are you OK?
do you want to see something freaky?
isn't that awesome?
did you have another bad dream?
no, I'm fine

She was up most of the night

Jonas
What's wrong Rachel?

it's time for me and Tim to leave
we have to
I have to learn to be a mother
a good mother...
figure out what I want to do
with the rest of my life
you guys have raised him, I haven't
I'm so God damned dependent
on everyone here
I have to learn to stand
on my own two feet
he's been dead over
thirteen years now Jonas...
what progress have I made?
his ghost is all around me
every time I look at you...
Nana, Katherine...
I still see him
Come on Rachel, don't fool yourself
my brother's ghost is going to be with you
whereever you go
you need to be strong...
despite that
he's want you to
I'm sorry Jonas
I've already made my decision

Nana
How did they find us Jonas? How?
What the hell is happening?
They want Timothy...
What are you talking about?
They want to kill him, Rachel...
And they're not going to stop
until he's dead.
Why would anyone want to kill Tim?
He's just a boy.
In 3 days on a full moon,
something going to happen to Timothy.
Something they can't allow.
We'll find Him.
You know that.
You're not making any sense.
We're cursed
We kept you in the dark all these years
Because it was the best way to
prevent them from finding Timothy
Ever
and we kept him safe Rachel.
For thirteen years we kept him safe.
Don't
We call ourselves skinwalkers
I don't understand...
mumbles some crap
Who are they?
Skinwalkers.
But not like us.
It's really quite simple.
We want the curse to end
They don't
Why do they want me?
Because you are the only
one that has the power...
To end the curse forever.
You're special Timothy...
You have your mother's blood,
and ours.
Nana was one of us.
So was your father.
No, it's impossible, not my husband...
Pull this thing over
We're getting out.
Rachel, please...
Don't you get it,
I don't believe you
It's going to be OK, I promise.
don't worry, she's safe
the're locked down
she needs to see it to believe it
You don't like me
I'm just a friend
I knew your father when he was your age
and Jonas and I go way back
My people have been taking care of
these people for a long time
there's a legend, a belief
that if a child....
a halfbreed....
something like that...
and if he lives to be 13 years old
there's gunna be a red moon...
which is a signal to all skinwalkers...
that the prophecy will be fulfilled at
midnight on the day of your 13th birthday
When they turn the craving for
human blood is so intense
that if they break free and feed
they will become the beasts for ever
and the ones trying to kill me
they don't want the curse to end?
To them it's not a curse
the lust and desire to consume
human blood
is so overwhelming to them
it's like drugs to an addict
The first Skinwalkers were
Native American
they believed that the power of the wolf
was a gift
but it mutated and ....
many couldn't control the lust for power
couldn't fight the beast inside them
what makes you think I can?
if I live through this...
what is it that I'm supposed
to be able to do, exactly
I don't know
don't do this...
Here you go little girl
thanks Alan...
Anytime...
keep dreaming
Are we going to play some pool?
let's play Baby...
Oh yeah, we're gunna play allright
Get your hands off me
we're two against one...
Get off of me!
Get off of me!
Hey sweetheart...
do you want some this?
Please forgive us.
we're refueled...
I'm gunna head for the Stronghold
allright.
hey hey hey hey...
you know you might even like it
if you try it
not in this lifetime...
Where the hell are we gunna go?
we follow the leader...
let's go.
yeah...
let's get it done
I'm the same man Rachel...
no...
you're not, not to me
you've been living like this
your whole life?
every month?
what about them?
the ones coming after us
when they change do they...
they hunt and they kill
they're addicted to blood...
once you feed you can't go back...
those beasts killed my husband
and now they're after my son...
how is a 13 year old boy
going to end all of this?
he's special...
the nightmares, the asthma
Timothy's body is at war with itself...
and he needs you...
we need you...
so what now?
How do we keep my son safe...
Now we keep together...
and we stay out of sight...
there's just two days...

He's stronger then all of us

going back for
why are you doing this?
that son of a bitch is
he knows he's got my only weakness...
that's why she's still alive Adam...
that's why we can't go back,
because that's what he's counting on
they're going to torture her mercilessly
and you know she won't break
can you live with that?
neither can I
it's just one more day Adam
and all this will be over
everything that we believe in...
lives in Timothy...
everything I believe in is out there
She's gone Adam

and he must have hunted
Jonas it's Caleb.

it's just one of those nights...
so many people sacrificed their lives for me...
and now I make sure
they did't die in vain...
Uncle Johannes was right after all
I do have the power to end the curse
it's not going to be as easy as they all hoped..
the power was in my blood
I am wounded
I'm here to be cured...
for some
I am salvation...
for the others
their destruction
