Lake Placid: Legacy (2018)

Post by bunniefuu »

So if I'm gonna write an article about this, I need the background.

Why?

Sometimes you gotta stick your hand in the hornet's nest to get a reaction.

Sounds like you're asking to get stung.

No. We're smart and quick.

Wenoco Corp, a Fortune 500.

Their marketing slogan is, "making life better."

Then why did they just buy themselves out of a multi-billion dollar lawsuit?

Assholes dumped 30 metric tons of toxic waste into the Indian Ocean.

Thought nobody would notice.

Then all those dead whales start washing up, and instant PR nightmare.

Yeah, until they made the story disappear.

So, what are you gonna do about it?

We're gonna make the world notice.

I thought this was all about urban exploration.

Discovering places you weren't supposed to go.

Shit! Oh, shit.

Shit...

You trying to give a dude a heart attack?

Billy, we good to go?

Yeah, I'm through the firewall.

Two minutes to bust the encryption.

Sam the rebel.

Well, till I brought him a social conscience.

So that makes break-and-enter okay?

It's not B and E if we don't steal and nobody gets hurt.

Yeah, and if they leave the door open.

All right, three minutes, in and out. Let's go.

Jade, the only people who could get hurt are you.

Is exposing the truth worth that or jail?

Well, there's only one way to find out.

What now? It's locked.

How are we gonna...? Access card.

Where did you get that?

Wenoco Corp junior analyst with a taste for tequila.

Shameless.

Love 'em and leave 'em, Sam, right?

Hey, that was the old me. I'm a changed man now.

Mm-hm. Okay.

Help me!

Okay, tie it off to the edge.

We got a minute, 20 till we book.

Then the alarm resets after.

All this just to put a banner on the side of a building?

What does that even get you?

It makes the evening news.

You feel that rush?

Billy, you said... Yeah, well, shit happens.

Come on. Okay, ready?

Whoo! Ha, ha!

Come on. Let's go, let's go.

Yeah.

Whoo! Hey, way too close.

Mm, but we're here, aren't we?

They're calling it an act of ecoterrorism.

Mom would be pissed.

What? Because she raised us better?

She wanted women who were strong and opinionated.

Who broke the law? Who defied authority.

Come on. Tell me you don't think this is justified.

Oh, and one hell of a rush.

I've gotta call my editor.

Tell him I've got the inside track on this.

Hey, no names in your BuzzFeed story, okay, Alice?

Much as I'd like to be infamous, I'll settle for "unknown Robin Hood rock star."

Your secret's safe with me. I protect all my sources.

Even the arrogant ones. Oh.

Oh, man. I'm gonna miss the hell out of this.

Miss it? Why?

Ask your sister, Jade. Or should I call her "Yoko"?

Okay, I'm not breaking up the band.

It's just... It's time, okay?

Sooner or later, we're gonna face the consequences.

If we are planning on hanging it up, at least we're gonna go out on top.

On top of what?

There's a ranking system.

Each new place we get to first, we get to drop a pin.

Wenoco is 32. Boom.

So I guess this really is the end.

So that's why you called.

You wanted me to write your final chapter.

Our obituary. Okay, we're not dead, Spencer.

I want us to shift into legitimate advocacies.

Yes. Petitions and rallies. It's edgy.

Oh, come on. You're forgetting one thing.

Going legit, it ain't free.

Hey, guys, you're gonna wanna see this.

Who is that?

Dane, Sam's old partner and grade-A assh*le.

We don't have to watch this.

You know what, it's okay. I wanna see it. Play it, Billy.

Sammy, I just saw the news.

Wenoco tower. That's a nice get.

I guess it's your last s*ab at claiming real territory.

Seriously, come on. Are the rumors true?

You're punking out of urban crusades.

Look, I know love is blind and all that crap.

But are you gonna let Jade change you like that?

Okay, you know what, turn it off.

No, let him finish.

I mean, it's who you are, man. It's in the blood.

I mean, I know that and so do you.

That's why I'm gonna lay down one last challenge.

Let's settle who's really king of this mountain.

I've sent you a geotag.

It's a place we both missed.

Until now.

Trust me, this could be a hell of a place.

More to the point, this one's coming with a bounty.

A private donor is offering 100 grand to whoever gets there first.

So the question is:

"You got the stones for one last quest?"

A real jackpot.

Or are you gonna call it a day?

Your call, buddy.

Yo, hey, gauntlet thrown.

He just went all in. A hundred grand.

Shut up. We don't even know if this is legit or where he is.

Just let it go. He's trying to get a rise out of you.

Okay, but the money.

Dude, seriously? We're done, right? Right?

You people are out of your minds.

The place you wanna go? It's off-limits.

Everybody knows that. It's not even on the map.

You sure you know what you're getting into?

They took it off Google Earth. "They"?

Government, secret business cabals, who knows?

There's like 28 sites in the world blacked out.

Area 51, Százhalombatta.

Places people aren't supposed to know too much about.

Places with dirty, little secrets.

All I know is the lake's poison.

Some big toxic spill 20-something years back.

Radiation or some shit. Big fences, warning signs.

Unless you believe it isn't true.

You're crazy to wanna go in there.

We received some information from a friend.

Sam, the more I look at it, the more it doesn't seem like there's a mine at all.

It seems like this place never existed.

Maybe, if this friend isn't exactly a friend anymore.

That's because he ain't nobody's friend. Traitor.

He found something that suggests that you locals... You've been lied to.

Could be you're the one chasing a lie.

Like I said, some people can't be trusted.

"Some"? I've known this guy forever.

He wouldn't have challenged us if there wasn't something.

Yeah, like 100 grand.

It's not on the map. Here's what I know.

Me and Travis aren't getting paid enough to walk into a hot zone.

Yeah, that's right.

I don't care if this friend got his intel from God himself.

This thing picks up even a tiny bit of radiation, we're out.

Well? Decoys.

There's no service coming from those cameras, not even an energy source.

Somebody put them up to scare people.

Maybe for good reason.

Or, heh, somebody just got here before us.

You think?

I don't know.

And?

Give it a g*dd*mn second, would you?

See? I told you.

No radiation. The story's bullshit.

One part.

But something in here is dangerous.

Otherwise, why all this?

I need video for the online article.

Hey. Whoa, whoa. Come on. No.

Hey, it's okay. You're gonna blur our faces, alter our voices, right? Sure, whatever you want.

I get it. Band of anonymous rebels.

All right, go for it. Rolling?

Okay, we're here.

Twenty-five years ago, this place was poisoned by chemicals.

So they say, but there's been no EPA cleanup and no public record of any activity here.

So something doesn't add up, and we're gonna figure out what it is.

Cool? Cool.

My editor's gonna love this.

Look, maybe she's right.

This place could still be dangerous.

It isn't. I got a feeling.

What, because Dane said?

He uncovered this place. Didn't he? He dared us...

Yeah, exactly, a dare.

What if this place and the bounty is another hoax?

One more way for Dane to get back at you.

Who's Dane? Long story.

Let's just say they had a falling out.

My sister. Dane wasn't a fan?

Oh, he was a little more than her fan.

Well there's only one way to find out.

You bring the bolt cutters? Yeah.

Hey, whoa, isn't that illegal? You okay with this, Penny?

We're hired hands. If they wanna be rebels and break the law, it's on them.

Hey, watch out, man.

Watch out. The fence is dangerous.

No!

No! Help him!

No, no! Help him! No!

Oh, boy.

The look on your face was priceless.

He thought you were dying.

Chill, Furiosa.

There's no current. You can feel that up close.

It's not my first rodeo, okay?

Doesn't add up. Found a dead deer here a month back.

It burned to a crisp touching that.

Yeah, well, it's the fence that's dead now. I'm telling you this whole place is a lie.

No contamination here.

Somebody went through a hell of a lot of trouble to make this look like ground zero.

It's gotta be something else, right?

Something bigger. Come on.

Tell me you're not just a little curious.

She was never cut out for this.

Thinks it's juvenile, not noble enough.

Nothing wrong with having a higher purpose.

You and I could have a purpose.

Get a little high, see where it leads.

Really, Spence?

After all these years, you figured I'd give up my self-respect for a shot at you?

You don't know what you're missing.

Pretty sure I do.

Come... Really?

Come on.

All right, easy, easy. Let's go.

All right.

Guys, would you look at that?

Yeah, it's stunning.

Yeah, and this thing's heavy.

Easy, snowflake. Wouldn't want you breaking a nail.

Okay, here's good.

Drop our banner and get out.

Hey, careful with that. That gear's sensitive.

Okay. Okay.

We're losing signal, so we should get moving.

Satellite phone's still working.

I should be able to triangulate the geotag to within a few feet. We're good.

Look, it's the last time, I promise.

Mm-hm.

Hey, this water's warm.

It's like a hot tub.

Okay, so we got EPIRB sat link, rations and camping supplies for three days.

Well, we might not even have to spend the night, depending on what we find.

♪ Row, row, row your boat ♪

♪ Gently up the lake ♪

♪ Who knows what we're gonna find Your old friend Dane's a snake ♪ Shut up, Spencer.

Whatever you say, little man.

Did you guys see...? Land ho!

Whoo!

There we go.

For a tiny Podunk lake, it's not messing around.

All that machinery?

Maybe it's used to move cargo to a bigger facility.

Maybe inland.

Yeah, but what kind of facility? Hey.

You're breaking the law. If it's all the same, we're gonna unload your gear and get the hell out.

Um, you can't take off.

We were only paid to guide you in and pick you up later.

Will you give us at least an hour to look around. Cool?

You got 30 minutes.

I'm not getting paid enough to risk jail for trespassing.

What went so wrong they abandoned the thing?

I mean, the signs, the fences?

Well, Dane said he found something incredible, didn't he?

Think he beat us to the pin? Only one way to find out.

Let's go! All right. Okay.

Well, I guess that answers that.

That sure as hell looks like Dane's shit.

Yeah. Sam, we just got suckered. Dane beat us to it.

Yeah.

We've been set up.

What an assh*le.

Okay, Dane. Where the hell are you?

What now?

I don't know.

Hey, guys, you should see this.

Quick.

Guys. This is Dane's camera.

We need to find out what happened.

Billy, can you access what's on here?

Yeah. I've got an app on my phone.

I can access it via Bluetooth.

There's only a couple of files.

Here.

That thing on, Gomez?

All right, let's go.

We're here. According to our guide, Henderson, the entrance isn't far.

About 200 yards up this hill.

He went up ahead, make sure everything's safe.

Man, if he's telling the truth, this is gonna be one hell of a find... and one hell of a payday. Ha, ha.

"Henderson." That name mean anything to you?

No. I know Gomez.

He was part of the crew Dane acquired after we parted.

I never heard of Henderson. Telling the truth about what?

Is there anything else on here, man?

Only one other file.

It wasn't supposed to be here. Not alive, anyway. We got...

We got att*cked while we were sleeping.

I think Bonita is dead.

Gomez... Gomez ran off.

I'm pretty sure it got him too.

Henderson said there was weapons inside this place.

I hope he finds them.

Oh, God. Oh, my God. Oh, my...

I don't think I'm gonna make it off this island.

If anyone finds this, please tell my family that I...

That I am sorry, that I love them.

Dude, what was that?

Maybe this island isn't abandoned.

What if someone's still here?

Some hillbilly psycho with an ax to grind, literally.

Okay, guys, the video said "something," not "someone."

Not a person. Something that shouldn't be alive.

What does that mean?

I have no idea.

Dude.

Shit. Wait, is that...?

It looks like something has been ripped apart.

Don't you get it? What this thing is?

Apparently, you do. Yeah, Dane and his crew.

Look, they cooked this up. We're being punked.

What are you talking about? Think about it, brains.

The torn-up camp, the blood, the terrifying video?

It's a setup, man.

Jade called it. He's out to make you look like a fool.

There ain't no 100 grand.

He's probably out there filming us right now.

Hey, Dane! Come on out, bro! Jig's up. I'm not your bitch!

He's right. It's gotta be a hoax. Right?

You know what he's like. Dane!

All right. I'm wandering off into the woods after your scary blood trail.

What's gonna happen? No. Spencer!

Spencer, wait, man! No, man!

Spencer!

Spence! No.

And nice homage to classic horror, bro.

The whole shaky handheld-camera thing.

Hey, the flaring nostrils of fear.

Yo, come on out, Dane!

I'm not getting played by you.

What makes tracks like that? A bear?

No, a bear doesn't have feet that big.

Oh, come on, people. It's obvious. Dane.

I don't know.

Billy? Looks pretty real to me.

Some sort of quadruped with a tail.

What? They look reptilian.

Dude.

Well, maybe they're yeti tracks.

Or the Loch Ness monster? Hold me, Billy, I'm frightened.

Could you be a bigger assh*le?

Touch me again. Get your hands off.

They should film me ripping your head off. That'll go viral.

Spence! Easy.

Just... Enough.

Hey, Spencer. You're bleeding.

It's that damn fake blood!

Oh, God!

Okay. It's Gomez.

No, it's not real.

No. No, it's not real.

Look, this is Gomez messing with our head.

Right? That's all this is!

We need to get out of here.

Everybody back to the boat!

Move!

Hey! Hey! What's going on?

Start the boat!

Start the boat! Start the damn boat!

What's going on?

What about Dane and the others?

To hell with Dane. You wanna get k*lled by what got Gomez?

What are you talking about? Get to safety.

We'll call police... They could be alive.

Tell me what's going on or nobody's setting foot on...

The boat. It just moved.

Pennie!

Help!

Oh, my God! Shit. Pennie!

I'm coming to get you!

Pennie!

Pennie!

It's on my leg!

My leg. Oh, my leg. Pennie!

Pennie!

Pennie!

I'm coming to get you! Wait, Pennie. Wait.

I can't start it! Sam!

Come on.

Come on.

Travis, jump out. Travis, come on.

Travis, jump! I got you.

Travis!

Travis! Shit.

Swim, swim!

Oh, my God. Oh, my God.

Where did he go? Where did he go?

Where did he go? Travis!

Get back here! Swim! Swim!

Travis!

Swim! Swim! Travis!

Spencer!

Get back here, Sam!

Pennie's okay.

Sam! Swim, swim!

Spence! Help me. All right.

Careful. I know, I know.

Oh, shit.

Travis, did you see him?

I don't think he's... Oh, God!

It's all right. It's all right.

Sit her down. Shit.

Oh, my God. Look at me.

You're gonna be okay. We'll wrap it up.

Don't look at it. Look at me. I'm okay.

What happened to Travis? Did you see him?

He's gone, Pennie. He's gone. Oh, God, no. Oh, God.

Hey, hey, hey.

He is dead. You saw that.

Look, something pulled that whole boat under.

What was that? A shark?

Not in a freshwater lake. Then tell me what that was!

We need to get off this dock.

What happened to Travis? Go, search for him.

Sam, we got nothing now. No supplies.

No beacon to get off this island.

We got no way out of here.

You can help me lift her. Help me lift her!

Just keep it... Oh, okay.

Watch your head. One, two... Careful, guys.

Stay with me now. Okay.

Come on, guys. Quick.

All right. I got her, I got her. Okay. Shh.

Okay. What was that?

This is bad. We lost all our medical supplies.

We gotta find something.

We gotta stop the bleeding, or she's gonna go into shock. Okay.

You guys find anything? I got nothing.

Flashlight. Ropes and whiskey.

Yeah, well, bring it all here.

You have to pour this on the wound.

It's gonna hurt.

You're okay. It's starting to get dark.

We've got maybe an hour or two before sundown. What then?

Dane said something about an entrance.

What if we get in, get weapons?

A radio, medical supplies. It's worth a try.

Look, if we build you a stretcher, can we move you?

Just splint my leg. I can move on my own!

Sam, are you nuts?

She's gonna slow us down. What did you say?

So you just wanna leave her? Here?

You saw what happened. Gomez in that tree, the tracks.

Whatever that thing is, it can come on land.

We gotta get out of here now.

Nobody is getting left behind! Help me build a splint.

She's not even one of us.

You're a coldhearted son of a bitch.

You know I'm right! Hey, hey!

Whoa! Whoa! Hey.

Whatever that thing was... if it needs a body to feed on, I vote for yours.

Hey, let's not get crazy. Just...

Four years in the Marines. A tour of Afghanistan.

You wanna see how crazy I can get?!

Travis is dead because of you.

You couldn't mind your own business, had to go where you didn't belong.

Hey, look.

We are all in this together, all right?

You gotta put the g*n down.

I just wanna help you.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry about Travis.

I am sorry about all of this.

But none of us are getting out of here... if we k*ll each other first.

You gotta trust me.

Okay. Okay. There it is. Okay.

You sure there's a way out of this?

Sam and I have been in rough spots before, okay?

We're gonna figure it out. "Exciting adventures," you said.

"It'll make a great story.

Raise your profile with your editor."

The only place my name's getting published is in the obituaries.

Alice, you're not gonna die.

I'm not gonna let that happen to you.

Don't try and "big sister" me.

I know a dead end when I see one.

Hey. Hell, no. No.

I'm not going in there. Okay.

You stay here. Good luck.

Shit.

This is some bullshit.

What is this place?

I heard it was a mine a hundred years ago.

But it got shut down and everyone in town thought that was the end of that.

But my daddy talked about these mysterious boats... coming and going from the islands at night.

Strange corporate types passing through town.

They sure were up to something.

But then it all got shut down.

Off-limits.

Yeah, now we know why.

Some kind of man-eating creature wandering around.

It doesn't make sense.

If they knew that, why wouldn't they k*ll it first?

Hey, hey.

Hey, come on, man.

We don't wanna go further in.

Do you wanna go back there?

End up like Gomez?

We need to find a more secure space, man.

This is bullshit!

Hey, there's a light down there.

Spencer? Yeah.

Bring the rope.

We're not going down there, are we?

Uh-uh.

All right.

That was easy.

Whoo. Okay.

Higher. Go on in.

Easy. Easy. All right.

I got you.

You got this. You got this.

Okay.

It's all clear.

Who's next?

Okay, Alice.

It's your turn.

Come on.

I can't do this. You know I'm scared of heights.

Yes, you can. You can.

You did the roller coaster at Coney Island.

I threw up in Mom's purse.

Yeah, but, uh...

But you did it, okay? Twice.

So... Easy for you to say.

You've always been the brave one.

Alice, I'm claustrophobic as shit, okay?

You used to have to sing to me. No singing, please.

Can we leave the sister bullshit till later?

Okay, fine. I'll go first.

Then you're right behind me. You promise?

I got you. I got you. Oh...

I got you.

Okay, Alice!

You got this!

Just take it slow.

Okay. Hey.

You either climb down the rope or I'm throwing you down.

Hey, take it easy, Spencer.

It's okay, Alice.

You got this.

You take it slow and don't look down, okay?

You can do it.

All right, come on, come on.

Slowly. You good, Spencer?

All right.

Doing great!

Okay. There you go! Don't look down, Alice!

Alice!

Spencer, help us! Come on!

Come on! Shit!

Wait! Come on!

I can't go anymore!

Come on!

Oh... oh, shit.

What happened?

What happened? Alice?

Come on, come on.

Come on, come on. Oh, shit!

Spencer! Billy!

It's okay. Shit. It's a dead end.

Shh. Listen. Spencer!

Billy!

Hey, Sam!

Sam, it's Billy! Can you hear me?

Are you okay? Hey! Hey!

We're okay!

Did you guys see that thing?

It was like 50 feet long!

We gotta get off this island, man.

Hey! We gotta stay calm.

Don't tell me to stay calm! You saw the size of that thing.

Will you two shut up?

Billy?

Hey, Sam! Sam, we're here!

Find a way to boost your cell phone signal.

There was a radio antenna at the dock.

If I can somehow connect to that, then maybe.

I don't know!

Okay, you three head there!

We're gonna continue.

See if we can find supplies or another way out.

I'm not going. That's gonna get us k*lled.

We need to get back to the dock. Okay.

You stick together!

Any sign of that thing, you make a run for it.

Yeah, that worked out real well for Gomez!

We're not dead yet.

Come on, come on. Let's go.

Come on, I got you. God. Oh!

Come on, Spencer.

What are we doing?

Now what?

Now we find out what secret this place has.

You wanna go deeper inside?

Okay. Okay. Follow Sam. Follow Sam.

Come on. We're close.

Maybe that thing was a big croc or an alligator.

No, i-it's not.

How do you know?

Senior year of high school.

GatorWorld.

Tour guide said the biggest crocs and gators top out at 20 feet.

But that thing was way bigger than that.

The teeth, the size of the head...

Okay.

So, what is it, then?

How the hell would I know?

Hey.

This way.

What the hell are you doing?

Open the cans. Dump out the contents.

You're gonna mad scientist? Make what?

With luck, a 90-megahertz signal booster.

What? Secret of the wireless industry.

They know the reception sucks in most places.

All cell phones have a little port in the bottom, right here, for an external antenna.

We build a funnel to condense the faint signal into a stronger one.

Hello, outside world. From tin cans and duct tape?

You wanna swim across the lake?

Go for it. No, thanks.

I'll stick with you, Poindexter. Shut up!

Oh!

Just hurry up. Get this thing done.

Anything useful? No.

Whoever was here must have left in a big hurry.

Yeah, so they wouldn't get k*lled.

Pharmetta Corp.

They're one of the biggest, most notorious conglomerates.

They make everything, from baby food to rocket fuel.

And sued hundreds of times.

Environmental disasters, ethical violations.

They scoped out the abandoned mine and built underneath to keep whatever the hell they were doing here a secret.

That makes sense.

Yet they stay in business, earning more and more money.

Sure is profit when you're raping the planet.

But what were they doing here?

Hey, there could be something down here.

I don't know.

Listen.

We can't lose hope, okay?

It's all we got now.

Don't go down the stairs. Horror Movie 101.

Damn it.

How is it possible this place still has power?

It's probably tied into some geothermal source.

The same thing making the lake water warm.

Yeah, but 20 years later?

Maybe we aren't alone.

What the hell were they doing in here?

Hard drives are gone, but the equipment is here.

Like Jade said, they got out fast.

Maybe not everything.

Like the cattle pens back in Missouri.

Except flooded. Not flooded accidentally.

Looks like they were designed that way.

Jade.

Maybe that's what Pharmetta Corp was doing.

Breeding these giant amphibians like that thing out there.

Okay, but why?

They spliced arctic fish DNA with corn to make it frost-resistant.

They had an facility where they were growing human organs inside of pigs.

It's not like ethics or morality were ever in their playbook.

But why make huge crocodiles? And how?

Why did Frankenstein make a monster out of dead people?

To play God.

Okay, but if they made that thing, why leave it alive?

When they walked out, why not destroy everything?

We may never know why, Sam. But that thing is out there.

And if we can't find a way off this island, it's gonna hunt and k*ll all of us.

Spencer, are you coming?

What? No, I'm not going out there.

I've got a few rounds. You sure?

Our best chance at a stray signal is at the end of the dock, by the mast.

All I need is enough signal to get a 911 call.

Okay. All right. Hey, hey, hey.

Look, I never really liked you, Billy... but you hacked the school's computer system that time.

Changed my grades so I got my baseball scholarship.

Yeah. You know, well, that's when I knew. What?

God made geeks for a reason.

Would you shut up? Sorry.

Hey, I was kidding.

Shut up. Shit.

I was kidding.

Okay.

I'm scared.

Would you hurry up? Okay.

Oh, my God.

I got it.

Shh. Shh, shh.

Thought I heard something.

What?

Hey. Can some...?

Oh, my God! Oh, my God!

Spencer!

Oh, my God.

Spencer!

Oh, my... Where is he?

Oh, my God.

Get away from the edge.

Let's go. Come on! Did you get through?

No, I lost the signal!

This way. This way.

Which way? I... I don't know.

Okay. Oh, my God.

Okay.

Hey.

Look. Looks like a comm tower.

Looks like a shortwave... Oh, God.

God, it hurts like a son of a bitch.

You should go on without me.

No way. Listen.

Go to that comm tower, get help for you and the others.

Pennie, I'm not leaving you. God. Oh, God.

Which way?

There's movement down there. Oh, my God.

What the hell? Okay.

It's hunting us.

Like game.

Oh, my God. We gotta get out of here.


We gotta go. Come on.

A facility of this size must have a radio room.

Some means of contacting the outside world.

We'll have to go further in to find it.

Like Theseus and the maze of the Minotaur.

She majored in journalism, but she minored in:

Greek mythology.

The Minotaur was a creature trapped in a lair that k*lled everyone foolish enough to enter.

We don't know that croc can get in.

We don't know that it can't.

It probably started in one of these things.

Oh, yeah, they sure as hell had crocs in here. Look.

They were feeding them livestock.

Look at the size of this thing.

Crocodiles and alligators can regrow lost teeth but not like that one.

Okay, we gotta keep moving.

God.

What do we do?

Like I said, you gotta leave me and reach that tower.

No. I can't.

Look, it's got my scent.

The blood.

So you got only one chance to live.

Run.

Or I'll sh**t you myself.

Run!

Come and get me, you son of a bitch!

Come on!

Come on!

Come and get me, I'm here!

Come on!

Come and get me, you son of a bitch! Come on!

Come on!

Come on!

Come on!

Come on. Come on.

Pennie. Not too far from here.

It's inside! What are we gonna do?

Let's go. Let's go.

We need to figure out how to k*ll that thing before it kills us.

What is it?

Dane?

Oh, man.

Am I glad to see you.

You shouldn't have taken the bait, Sam.

Oh, really?

You set us up just so you could beat us one more time?

You always had the advantage.

Yeah, you really thought he was gonna ignore your video?

Look, all I wanted was to hook Sam back in.

Keep him in the game.

At least I thought this was a game.

People are dead because of you.

You think I don't know that?

Gomez, Bonita, Jones.

You think I don't know?

Look, I barely even made it in here alive.

Henderson left me out there to die.

Who the hell is Henderson?

He's the reason I found out about this place.

But why?

He used me to get in and out.

Did he know that thing was loose here?

Did you?

You son of a bitch.

You brought us here, and you knew?

I didn't.

Did you? I didn't!

I didn't.

Neither did he.

At least, that's what he told me.

I've been trying to get the truth out of him since I came here.

What does that mean?

We were just a cover story for him.

This?

This was all a big lie.

Sh...

This way.

Come on.

We'll be safe here.

A radio.

Bingo.

Hey.

Maybe we can reroute this emergency lighting, try and get that thing working again.

That was the idea.

Took a while to get the generator working.

Fortunately, it's diesel, or else we'd be out of luck.

At least I got these lights to work.

Yeah, what about this radio?

It's dead.

The radio will never work.

You won't be calling for help any time soon.

Jesus, Dane. What the hell is going on here, man?

That's Henderson. He lied to me.

He promised he was gonna document everything.

This was gonna be our greatest achievement, planting our flag here.

But that wasn't the truth, was it, Henderson?

Nah.

None of it was.

So much for my Twitter followers.

He knew exactly what he was getting into.

See this? Does this even look like a standard issue for a reporter?

Someone who was gonna make our triumph go viral?

A tranq g*n.

Just for safety.

A big-ass needle. I mean, what's it for?

And these vacu-tubes?

Is this g*n strong enough to k*ll our friend?

Nope.

But in the right spot, it would knock her out for a hell of a nap.

Wait, so you used us as a cover to, what, harvest DNA samples?

No, no. No, I brought him.

Y-y-you were his idea.

Tell them. Go on.

What? Tell them!

The bastard used to work for Pharmetta Corp.

Yes, yes. That's true, and I'm proud of it.

I'm proud of the work we did here.

We were on the cutting edge of DNA stem-cell research.

No, don't split hairs!

Tell them about the damn project!

Listen, if I untie you, are you gonna tell us everything?

Yes, yes. Of course.

What, trust him?

Y-yeah...

You're not gonna trust him.

I am gonna let you out of here.

And you're gonna tell us everything.

Yes.

From the beginning.

Then you're gonna lead us out of here, understand?

Yes. No, no.

He lied to us to get us to sneak him in here and get him out.

I'm sure as hell he lied about the 100 grand, as well.

Yeah, well, it is not up to you, because there was never any race.

You always had the advantage from the start, and you knew you'd get here first.

So you? You can't be trusted either.

Don't get all sanctimonious on me, Sammy.

This was a stupid game.

Don't trust him.

Thank you.

You wanna blow us all up?

These tunnels are probably full of gas.

I'm afraid we'll all be dead soon enough.

Huh.

Retirement gift?

Now tell us everything. Now.

We broke the genetic code in discovering the key to splicing inherited DNA.

You were breeding giant, custom-built, man-eating crocodiles.

Yes. You make it sound trivial.

This is batshit crazy, is what it is.

It was important work. You don't understand.

Why don't you try explaining it to us, then?

We needed to study them to derive a vaccine using their DNA.

I ain't no reptile expert, but that animal is not like anything that I have ever seen before in my life.

Yes.

Well, sh-she's a hybrid.

Part modern-day creature, part Purussaurus brasiliensis...

In English.

Extinct.

From the Miocene era.

Eight million years ago.

So let me get this straight.

Pharmetta Corp was crossing the DNA of some prehistoric creature with a modern-day crocodile?

Yes.

You made a monster.

No, no.

We were trying to save lives, help humanity.

Well, that didn't work out so well, did it?

My question is: Why?

Why now? I'd always been suspicious that there were a line of crocs here, still alive somehow.

Oh, yeah? And why was that?

A Pharmetta Corp veterinarian in charge of caring for the animals.

When we got the order to shut down, he left with a live specimen, went back home to Lake Placid, Maine.

But his stolen pet grew up, grew hungry, and I'm fairly certain, made a nice meal out of him.

Before he left, when the order came down to euthanize all of the animals our good vet devised a plan to give the rest of the crocs a chance to survive.

And that croc out there is the sole survivor.

Nobody from the company came to check?

They rendered the complex quarantined and washed their hands of the whole thing.

But I needed viable DNA, and that-that's where you came in.

With the techniques we have today, from stem cells from that-that croc, I could... I could change medicine.

You could make billions.

Save millions, making billions, yes.

That's a good business.

Revolutionary.

Stem-cell research, a whole new series of antibiotics, it...

It would be enormous!

Listen to me.

You are gonna show us a way out.

Yes, yes, yes, uh...

Um. Emergency inflatables at the s-service bay.

They may still work. If not, it's still a way out.

I-I could take you there.

Yeah.

Yeah, you're gonna take us there.

Hello? Jade?

Oh, my God. Are you guys okay?

Billy. Billy, how did you...?

I managed to get the intercom working.

No connection to the outside world yet.

I'm working on that.

Billy, we heard...

We heard g*nshots. Screaming.

Yeah.

It was Pennie. She...

She-she sacrificed herself for me.

Spencer?

He's gone, Jade.

It got him too.

Billy, we gotta get help, okay? We gotta get out of here.

I know.

I used the radio antenna as a giant boost for my cell.

The signal's still weak, but I got a call out to 911 before it cut out.

If I can do it again, maybe they can geolocate the source.

Then...

Jade.

I th... I th...

Billy?

Billy? Billy, we lost you.

Are you still there?

It's here, Jade.

It's hunting him.

Billy, listen to me.

You've gotta stay still.

Just stay put until you're really sure.

No!

Billy?

Billy, what's happening?

Shut off that noise now!

Billy! Billy!

We're never getting out of h...

Alice, Alice, okay, look at me.

I need you, okay?

I am so sorry for everything.

I wanna go home.

I want this nightmare to be over.

Where's Henderson?

I told you!

I g*dd*mn told you!

Come on!

He knows this place inside and out.

He's probably long gone now.

He must've gotten here by a boat.

Think he's headed back there?

No.

Do you think he went that way?

No, it sunk.

That thing broke it apart.

Yeah, same as ours.

So where do you think he went?

It's him.

He's probably heading to the service bay he told us about.

I hope you're right.

Oh, shit.

Are you saying this wasn't flooded already?

Henderson.

Now what do we do?

We gotta get to the other end.

We gotta swim for it.

Before the whole thing's flooded.

How do we know that creature isn't down there?

We don't. But it's the only way.

You and Alice stay here while I check it out.

Hey, don't be a cowboy.

You know, this never would have happened if we'd still been one crew.

Hey. You're the one who walked away, remember?

You set this whole thing in motion.

You proposed.

Shit.

What happened to the old Sam?

I grew up.

You should try it sometime.

There.

That's it.

That's a long swim.

I know.

Sam? You good?

He's fine.

Hey, come on down!

If it's a choice between being eaten and getting wet, I'll take door number two.

Jade, it's okay! Come on!

Jade, move! Now!

What the hell is that?

Time to go. Come on.

Alice, go quickly. Go!

I can't do it, Sam.

Jade, you have to go. No.

Sam, I can't! I can't!

Hold your breath, and you're gonna have to swim.

You okay? Yeah.

Jade, go! You gotta swim!

You can! You can!

Hey, look, you're gonna have to swim.

No, no.

Just look at me. You're gonna count to three.

Okay. You can do this. Okay?

Okay. You can do this.

Okay. One, two, three.

Hold your breath.

I saw something, Sam.

Right there.

You're almost there. You're almost there.

Keep going. Keep going. Keep going.

Something's coming!

It's in the water.

Come on!

Come on!

Sam! Sam!

Sam! Did you get it?

Sam!

I can't... I can't see. I can't see.

Alice, run!

Come on!

We're going in circles.

We're never gonna get out of here.

Dane, just shut up, man.

Shit, it's locked.

Now we gotta go back!

Jade, help me.

Wanna lift? One, two...

Okay. Alice, you go down first.

Okay? I'm right behind you. Come on.

Down you go.

There you go. Okay.

Dane. Dane.

Come on, man.

Dane! Dane!

No!

This isn't a service bay. It's a dead end.

Henderson lied.

Big surprise.

It knows our every move.

There is only one way we're getting out of here, and that's if we k*ll that thing.

There's flares!

Let's go. Let's go!

Sam. What are you doing?

There's still gas in these tanks.

We vent the gas in the room, we lure that thing in here and use those flares.

Instant napalm.

Just one problem: we burn up with it.

One of us is gonna have to lure it in, and get out before the gas ignites.

It's a stupid plan.

Alice, it's our only plan!

We are gonna blow that thing to hell.

For Dane, for Spencer, for Billy, for everyone else!

Except you're not gonna be the bait.

I am.

Sam. Sam!

No! No. No. No.

Listen, if we all stay here, we all die.

And somebody needs to tell the world about what Pharmetta Corp has done here.

Go! Go!

Sam, wait, no. I need you, please.

I love you.

No! No!

Jade, come on!

Jade!

Come on, you son of a bitch!

Come on, you son of a bitch!

Come here, you assh*le.

That's it.

I'll see you in hell.

Oh, shit.

Sam! Where's the expl*si*n?

It didn't work.

That thing is still alive.

Run!

It's Pennie! Oh, shit.

Okay, Alice. Alice! Alice, don't look.

Don't lose it on me now, just don't look. Okay?

Alice?

Run. Run!

Damn.

Alice! You gotta get up! You gotta get up!

Lean on me. You're okay.

Okay. Okay.

Okay, easy. You're good?

Okay, wait here, all right?

What? Are you serious?

I promise, I will be back.

Jade!

Wait, please don't leave me here alone.

That thing is coming.

I need you to trust me.

Have we ever let each other down?

Okay, I am not gonna start now.

Okay? Okay.

Where are you going?

Stay there!

Jade! Jade, help!

Jade!

No! Help!

Jade!

Jade.

Jade!

Alice!

Yes!

This is for Sam.

World's biggest barbecue.

What now? How are we gonna get home?

Well, I guess there's only one way out of here.
