Short filmTranscript
00:08that day I had no idea what kind of hell we were heading into we humans thinking
00:15we were so smart ended up unleashing our own worst nightmares at the beginning
00:19it was all about making the world but before we knew it things spun out of
00:27control mistakes were made and you've seen how it all went down from there
01:10oh
01:11oh
01:11oh
01:12oh
01:13oh
01:13oh
01:28you leaving
01:31what's wrong
01:32nothing
01:34just
01:34if we could pretend that didn't happen that would be great
01:37Did I do something wrong?
01:40I'll see ya.
01:41See ya!
01:51You better have a really good excuse for calling me non-stop on a weekend.
01:55I know, but it's up to you to decide whether this is a serious incident or just some crazy prank.
02:01I thought you might want to come down and see this.
02:16I thought you were so scared.
02:18It was just that I knew it was the first time I got to die.
02:18What am I doing?
02:25No, no, no.
02:30Oh, no.
02:40The homeowners have been deceased for almost two years, and the house has been vacant ever since.
02:44Last night, a passerby called the police saying they heard some creepy banging and screaming from inside the house.
02:50When the police got here, they found the back door wide open, like busted out from the inside.
02:55When we got here, there's nothing but this.
02:58Are we sure they're all dead?
03:01From a medical perspective, yes.
03:04Well, what is this Morse code thing, was that telling us?
03:07That's an AUG. It's measuring the brain activity of the corpses.
03:11The brain activity?
03:13Yeah, it's fascinating, actually.
03:15Brain activity doesn't immediately cease after death. It actually can last up to 72 hours.
03:20Okay, so you're saying they died within the last three days?
03:24Well, we need a little bit of time to confirm that.
03:29And the liquids, what are these?
03:32Well, those are all about keeping the bodies fresh.
03:35Keeping a moniker of brain activity going on.
03:39So you're saying the bodies are being kept together by someone?
03:43Looks like.
03:45My question is why?
03:46Maybe for some bio experiments or, I don't know, black market organ trading or something.
03:52We might need to consult someone to see what's really going on here.
03:56You know, I'm more concerned about who they are and how they died.
04:00Well, we're on it.
04:03What is it?
04:09Is this bed empty the whole time?
04:12Do you think there was someone here before as well?
04:29Don't bother.
04:30The community is still waiting on repairs from the hurricane.
04:33That was two months ago.
04:34Welcome to the efficiency of the city and poor neighborhoods.
04:37You should know that.
04:39You think we should leave a few officers here to stake out the place for a few days?
04:43That's your call, but I think it's clearly abandoned.
04:47Looks like we have a big problem.
04:49And it's not so abandoned after all.
04:54Low 32 degrees Fahrenheit.
04:56The activity of the sample significantly increases.
05:00Professor, are we starting the life experiment today?
05:03No, I don't think it's a good time.
05:06But according to our agreement with Morel Biotech,
05:09we need to assess the sample's cold intolerance as soon as possible.
05:14Listen, I don't think they're being straight with us about the samples.
05:18Well, um, they don't need to be straight with us as long as they pay up, right?
05:24The first round of live experiments marked out all of our test subjects.
05:28Got one, got two, all of them.
05:33Don't you think we should try to level carefully?
05:35I think, uh, mice don't have bills to pay or loans to settle.
05:40Once you figure out its parasitic mode, then we'll give the experiment another shot.
05:45What if they pull their funding because of it?
05:47They won't.
05:48They need these answers.
05:49Just like you said.
06:01He's been dead for several days.
06:03Okay, so why no signs of decomposition?
06:06That's because of those things.
06:09Take a look at this.
06:11It's like when he died from crossfire.
06:13Okay, why are we picking up brainwaves, then, of a guy that's been dead for several days?
06:17Not sure.
06:18Is it possible he's still alive?
06:22Yep.
06:23There's a doornail.
06:24Seriously, George.
06:25What?
06:26Oh, come on.
06:27That was awesome and you know it.
06:32Roger's expecting a report first thing in the morning.
06:35Yeah, I'm gonna get to it later.
06:36I need a break.
06:37Wanna get a drink?
06:39Uh, my son just called.
06:40And you know this job's already ruining my marriage.
06:42And you want me to go home smelling like a bar?
06:44Okay, my bad.
06:45I'm sorry.
06:46It's okay.
06:47You just behave yourself.
06:48Don't I always?
06:49Yeah.
06:50Yeah.
06:54Another one?
06:56Yeah.
06:57Why not?
07:00Drinking a loom tonight?
07:09Slumming it in police bars.
07:11Now I see.
07:13What can I get for you?
07:14I'll have what he's at me.
07:15So, what are you doing here?
07:18Sounded like you had a pretty big case to run off to this morning.
07:20Yeah, I just had a really stressful day and needed to blow off some steam.
07:26Would you like some help with that?
07:55No, no, no, no, no, no, no.
08:00My baby boy.
08:10So, you're gonna give me the keys to let me go?
08:13officer. It's detective. Oh, yeah, all right, detective. Keys. Who's this? That is my mother
08:24and my little brother. He's adorable. Yeah, he's 12. His name's Mickey. Poor interrogations,
08:35detective. I think the real interrogation is actually about to start. You can handle it?
09:05You're telling me that I got dead bodies with brainwaves that we can't even identify?
09:09I'm sorry, sir. Look, we tapped into the national database, and we've got nothing to tell us
09:13who they are. No IDs, no medical records, nothing. Just some marks on their arms, or we're assuming
09:17are track marks from drug use. We've got to keep quiet about this kind of thing, okay,
09:22until we don't want it. You wouldn't be surprised how something like this can affect a vote in
09:26this town, and the election is next month. Gotta be smart about how we handle this.
09:34Whoa. What you got there? What is that? What you got there, boy? What in the world?
09:46Lord knows what this place will become if Jay Spencer got the election.
09:50Sir, I need to take this. Yes? Where? Okay. What now? They found two new bodies.
10:02What? Fresh ones. Where? Down by the lake.
10:08Well, are you coming?
10:17Looks like it rained pretty hard down here. It's going to be difficult to find any prints
10:22or tracks.
10:29That is my mother.
10:35Damn it, George. I know these two.
10:52It was just a kid.
10:54Man, I'm so sorry for your loss.
10:56This is going to be really hard, but I need you to live the room for a bit so I
11:00can finish
11:00my report.
11:01Go with me, okay?
11:07Look, I need this wrapped up now, all right? The election is coming up. People are getting
11:13nervous.
11:14With this cliffhanger coming in, the airport is expected to drop below 32 degrees in the
11:18next few days. Make sure to bottle up.
11:25No drugs, no toxins. Victims were bitten.
11:29Bitten by what?
11:30I don't know. Albert thinks it could be gorillas.
11:33You're kidding, right? A gorilla?
11:35Maybe you want to escape from the zoo.
11:37Yeah, okay.
11:42What do you think?
11:44You know, I'm going to be back in a little bit.
11:46What? But Hodge is expecting us for a meeting.
11:49You got this. You got this.
11:51I got this.
11:55I got this.
12:13I'm going to be back in a little bit.
12:14I'm going to be back in a little bit.
12:14I'm going to be back in a little bit.
12:14I'm going to be back in a little bit.
12:14I'm going to be back in a little bit.
12:14I'm going to be back in a little bit.
12:15I'm going to be back in a little bit.
12:15I'm going to be back in a little bit.
12:16I'm going to be back in a little bit.
12:17I'm going to be back in a little bit.
12:17I'm going to be back in a little bit.
12:18I'm going to be back in a little bit.
12:19I'm going to be back in a little bit.
12:19I'm going to be back in a little bit.
12:23I'm going to be back in a little bit.
12:29I'm going to be back in a little bit.
12:49Last night I passed the flag.
13:03Hello? Is anyone there?
13:18Is anyone there?
13:35So you knew him?
13:36Oof. I'll never forget Christmas morning. Stepping outside the back of the house and seeing old Frank there frozen like
13:42an ice sculpture.
13:44Frostbite.
13:45Mmm. No. Dead. Beyond dead. Must have fell asleep drunk in the dish the night before. God, it snowed all
13:55night the night before. Took me two hours just to chip him out of the ice.
13:58So if he died last Christmas, how is he here on this table?
14:02It's more your department, detective.
14:05I'll get you to it.
14:06Hey.
14:08Hey.
14:09I think I found your gorilla.
14:15I see. All right. Thanks, buddy.
14:18They're fake plates. Can't trace anything. Gosh, you left some men there.
14:24No, it's my fault. I mean, I never thought they'd come back.
14:31Oh, yeah, boys. This is it. This is it. Yeah, Joe said, this is it.
14:40It's very good, right?
14:41You're sys-o, man.
14:50It's freezing.
14:52Joe's gonna freeze off in here.
14:54It's gonna be an asthma.
14:56Superman doesn't have asthma.
14:59Hey, Superman.
15:01Hey, Superman.
15:02Text phone number and see where she is.
15:04Hey, guys. I think you're sucking in the water.
15:11Are you sure?
15:13Last Christmas?
15:14I checked the records. No mistake.
15:16We're sure about one. I bet the others are connected, too.
15:20Tell me about this other case.
15:22You can see the dead woman and child with bite marks.
15:25The killer was, uh, what'd you call it, uh, a gorilla?
15:29What, they steal its banana?
15:33I think the cases might be linked.
15:35How so?
15:37So, at the first scene, there was that bed that was empty.
15:39I think there was someone there before.
15:41But somehow they got up.
15:45They got away.
15:47And started killing people.
15:52I mean, of course, it's just a theory.
15:54Yeah, yeah, well, good thing it's just a theory.
15:55What am I supposed to do if it's true, huh?
15:57Call some ghostbusters?
15:59Hey, I'm sure whatever, or whoever this is, they are human.
16:04Ghosts can't kill people.
16:05Right?
16:06Right.
16:07Right.
16:08Right?
16:08Yeah.
16:10Alright, y'all, uh, y'all go out and find whoever, or, uh, whatever.
16:15Get this.
16:21You think we should call the police?
16:22Leave it here.
16:24Call the cops way better.
16:25But after we shoot.
16:30This dump is what you chose to film?
16:37Hey.
16:39I'm sorry.
16:41No, no problem.
16:43Why don't you go home?
16:44No, no, I'd like to keep working.
16:46Take a look at this.
16:49I discovered that they have acute sensitivity to temperature.
16:54Below 32 degrees Fahrenheit, the sample is in a sort of hibernation phase.
16:58But, when it's warmer, the sample becomes more active.
17:04Upon the discovery of a host body, it lays eggs like crazy, kills the host, and then goes through a
17:10sort of metamorphosis of sorts.
17:12Once it's within comfortable temperature range, that's when it starts reproducing and eventually taking over the host body's entire central
17:20nervous system.
17:21Oh my god.
17:23What does that have to do with temperature?
17:26Well, I'm not exactly sure yet.
17:28I noticed, too, that when submerged in water for too long, the activities decrease there, too.
17:33But, as soon as it is back in oxygen-rich environments, they bounce back in a matter of minutes.
17:42Ew, gross, get off me.
17:44That was great, guys.
17:46Oh man, I'm out of here, I got another gig.
17:48Another film?
17:49Nah, a bachelorette party.
17:51What the hell?
17:52What's wrong?
17:53That thing, it moves.
17:54It's either open.
17:57Hey, hey dude, are you okay?
18:05Morell Biotech claims this sample's from the Antarctic ice.
18:08Mm-hmm.
18:10They're lying.
18:11There's no way they would stumble upon a chunk of ice in Antarctica with its sample still intact.
18:16They definitely found a host body.
18:20They never should have brought it out of Antarctica.
18:22Antarctica is melting, Professor.
18:24We're gonna come into contact with it anyway.
18:26They just want us to fix the sample's cold sensitivity.
18:29Well, I need to make sure it's safe first, don't I?
18:33The sample is in Petri dishes.
18:35That is as safe as it gets.
18:38I'm sorry about your family.
18:41Maybe you need a break.
18:45Woo!
18:48I wouldn't go in there for a while if I were you guys.
18:53Guys?
19:15No!
19:16No!
19:17No!
19:17No!
19:17Get off me!
19:18No!
19:18No!
19:29Hello?
19:31Hey!
19:32Oh, hold on!
19:37Holy hell...
19:38I just killed Superman!
19:48weird right apparently guy in the blue speedo just dashed out of the road fan
19:55guy ran him over what's weird then looks like he came from that house you won't
20:02believe what's inside check it out got the whole superhero crew
20:20same kind of marks the mother and son head and there's another big surprise we found
20:23just before you got here
20:33it's crazy we found this one floating in the water you think this is the corpse that escapes
20:37i think so same outfit even got the same gown i'd like to think this one back
20:47compared to the samples that we already have you know before the evidence gets contaminated
20:53all right albert it's yours
21:08wow whole superhero orgy but guess who was here but wasn't in the film you watched the whole
21:15thing didn't you it's not important guess who superman yeah i bet one of these guys is a
21:24biting fetish yeah okay then we need to compare traces if we're lucky we'll rep this case today
21:29let's hope so
21:50play some music
21:51play some music
21:51play some music
21:54play some music
22:18play some music
22:22play some music
22:23play some music
22:30play some music
22:36i just wanted to restore it as much as possible
22:39and any useful information
22:42not good news
22:43the bite wounds including the lethal ones
22:45well they match the dental records of our superman who got hit by the car
22:51I knew it. Case closed.
22:54No, wait, I don't understand. How did he get involved with the corpses in the basement?
22:59I ran into that guy in that house, remember?
23:02Yeah. Was he wearing a red Speedo?
23:04No. But he was also more filled out than your Speedo guy.
23:08Maybe they have another accomplice.
23:11Maybe.
23:14Okay. I need a hot shower and a hot bath after today.
23:19Go ahead. I'll write the report.
23:21You sure?
23:22Go on.
23:23Oh, and tell your hot date. Sorry to hear about it.
23:30How'd you know?
23:30Partners know things.
24:07Suspicious vehicle found on Dunham Street. You need to check some plates, please.
24:14Amen.
24:15Amen.
24:17I'm so sorry about your family, Professor.
24:21I know it's kinda soon, but I was wondering if they could work on the experiment tonight.
24:25Uh, I don't think the call-in is gonna be up to doing that today.
24:27Actually, I could use the distraction.
24:32I'll be at the lab later this afternoon.
24:34I'll see you.
24:40Hi, George.
24:41We found the gray sedan.
24:43Yeah.
24:43Plates have been changed, but it's the one.
24:46Just send me the address. I'll be right there.
24:47Yeah.
24:48I'm so sorry.
24:49No, it's fine.
24:50Yeah.
24:50Serious.
24:56What have we got?
24:58Well, car's clean, but we found some fingerprints on a wrench in the toolkit.
25:01It belonged to this guy.
25:03He served a year in prison for armed robbery, but that's about it.
25:07He could be our guy. What else do we know about him?
25:10Absolutely nothing.
25:11Sign up there goes. Thanks.
25:13Let's go see if anyone's seen him at that hotel over there.
25:31I don't know.
25:33Hands behind your head.
25:39Endangered Animal Protection Association.
25:42Journalist.
25:43So what's so newsworthy about her?
25:49Why were you at that house?
25:52I'm not talking without my lawyer.
26:03Brions.
26:04No way.
26:06This is what led to aggression among the same species.
26:08Brions cause mutations in the central nervous system while the toxoplasma keeps the brainstem and cerebellum connected with the nerves.
26:16They basically created a whole new system within the host organism.
26:21You're a genius.
26:22We've just modified these samples and made them more adaptable to low temperatures.
26:28That's exactly what our sponsor wanted.
26:30What?
26:30But they're prions.
26:32It's going to be more difficult for them to spread if they become cold resistant.
26:40We can't hand them over until the risks are assessed.
26:42We can't let things get out of control.
26:49Are you going to cooperate or what?
26:55Well then I can assure you.
26:56The next 48 hours are going to be pretty rough for you my friend.
27:03She's still up and до 않아요.
27:06Yeah you're dating.
27:07An expert in toxoplasmosis.
27:10If you didn't know.
27:11Go on.
27:12why don't you show them the corpses you found in the basement if you find something very interesting
27:24are you gonna follow his advice you know i always thought there was something weird about
27:27this corpse so yeah it might not be a bad idea all right you go find con instead you can
27:35find a
27:35way to make him talk i don't like this it's dangerous i can just do everything here myself
27:43no we need to get him back to the official lab so colin can make an assessment there's too much
27:47research to do to figure out how this happened we should have given him frank instead i mean he's
27:52just been laying here since he came in no this one is by far the bigger mystery
28:09yes yeah yes ma'am i promise you if re-elected i will make sure that happens
28:15i only want what's best for the citizens and i will always do what it takes to keep our town
28:20safe
28:32here take this you'll be glad for the caffeine
28:36thanks you know you could have told me what was going on and maybe had some faith in my
28:43multiple phds to help you figure this out i know i actually
28:51tell me about her she's very smart very focused probably the best assistant i've ever had
28:58how'd you meet her about two years ago she started with the team and then within two months
29:05she secured a targeted research sponsorship from morel biotech morel biotech yes why okay so i
29:13looked into the ship it's an antarctic research vessel owned by morel biotech
29:20the research project sponsored by morel biotech was to test the toxoplasma samples
29:26i'm back from antarctica her and i need to have a conversation
29:32do you think you can get her to come in yeah i can give her a call and see if
29:35she's available
29:36sure if the professor calls her she'll come
29:39you know she did say something weird earlier
29:43something along the lines of we can't let things get out of control
29:51oh that's crazy well i've never uh done an mri on a dead body before so
30:02i don't know
30:05i don't know hello professor
30:38hey we need to get out of here
30:39don't come any closer
31:05what the hell happened in there
31:09okay wait a minute how is this possible these were our samples samples the body
31:14you brought in it got infected by samples from antarctica
31:17wait what antarctica i'll explain later listen
31:20anyone who has contact especially blood contact is going to turn into one again
31:25oh god so that's where the lab tech turned
31:34what
31:36What?
32:00How are we going to get out of here?
32:04We can't leave!
32:05What are you calling?
32:05Why?
32:07We can't take this!
32:08We can't let them leave!
32:09We won't think we can take this!
32:17What do you think this is the police?
32:19Let's hope.
32:27Irene?
32:32It sounded like you need a help.
32:37What do you want to know?
32:40Everything.
32:42Four years ago, Victory, the research vessel of Morrell Biotech, starting its two-year voyage to Antarctica.
32:54That's my twin sister.
32:56What happened to the ship after Antarctica?
32:58It was found tied to a dock in Chile.
33:02Why Chile?
33:03They wanted to hide the fact that the entire crew had died, including my sister.
33:08Sorry, but why would they try to hide it?
33:12Because they wanted people to believe that Victory was still in service.
33:16And what happened to it after that?
33:18I found it tied to a dry dock in the savannah.
33:21And what I saw in there was the closest thing to hell I've ever witnessed.
33:27It was like a massacre had taken place inside, except there were no bodies of the missing crew.
33:35I kept moving in, and there it was.
33:37It was a large room, and when I pulled the curtain, I opened the gate to hell.
33:50When I pulled the curtain, I opened the gate to hell.
34:15I got bitten, but I didn't turn.
34:21So, the original samples were not infectious?
34:27These samples are clearly weaponized.
34:30Who did this?
34:32Wait, what about...
34:35Let's go.
34:37His brother was a microbiologist on Victory.
34:40Edgar.
34:41We investigated the ship together.
34:42Wait, so he created those things in his basement?
34:45He upgraded the sample?
34:47There's more?
34:48You know, I bet he knows more than he's letting on about all of this.
34:51Especially those corpses in the basement.
34:53I'm gonna head back to the police station.
34:55I'll go with you.
34:56No, I need you to stay here and secure this place until the officers come.
34:58Can you do that?
35:00Okay.
35:00Look, and you know what?
35:01Now that we know what we're dealing with, maybe you could do some more work and come up with a
35:04solution.
35:04Be safe.
35:05And you come with me.
35:06I need your help.
35:07Go.
35:22What's up, Albert?
35:25What do you mean, gone?
35:28I'm on my way.
35:40Albert?
35:55No.
35:56Okay, you gotta deal with them.
35:56It's hard to find these people.
35:59Lost on Chuck.
36:04Lock it down, people!
36:08He still isn't picking up.
36:10Just keep trying!
36:12Drop your weapons and come out with your end up!
36:16Ah!
36:17What's that scene?
36:20I still don't understand, though.
36:22The corpses in the basement seemed fine.
36:25Maybe they got treated somehow?
36:34I just wanted to restore it as much as possible.
36:36There's any answering, though.
36:38It's just not like them to not answer.
36:39Dammit!
36:42I can't take your weapons!
36:47Run!
36:51How is this possible?
36:53They're exactly the same.
36:58Where'd they go?
37:06Dammit.
37:06Get on the ground!
37:07Hands up!
37:08It's not Rethink!
37:09It's not me!
37:22Edgar's gone.
37:24It looks like they came from down this way.
37:26There's an elevator.
37:29Yeah.
37:29That's it.
37:31Those lead to the morgue.
37:51Why are you not answering your phone?
37:56No!
37:58No!
37:59No!
37:59No!
38:00No!
38:01No!
38:01No!
38:01No!
38:01No!
38:01No!
38:13You need to get out of here with me.
38:41Where do you think this goes?
38:42I don't know.
38:43But anything's fine.
38:44I don't know.
38:59I need to call the National Guard.
39:06What?
39:09Who exactly do you work for?
39:34This is just the beginning.
39:40I don't know.
39:41I don't know.
39:44I don't know.
39:45I don't know.
40:09I don't know.
40:15I don't know.
40:16I don't know.
40:17I don't know.
40:23I don't know.
40:24I don't know.
40:25I don't know.
40:29I don't know.
40:31I don't know.
40:38I don't know.
40:42I don't know.
40:42I don't know.
40:42I don't know.
40:42I don't know.
40:42I don't know.
40:42I don't know.
