Axegrinder 4: Souls of Blood (2022) - full transcript
When a social worker takes a group of non-violent criminals to the woods as a progressive rehabilitation program that will get them a reduced sentence for their crimes, it seems like she has thought of everything and nothing can go wrong. But Freddy Palmer, played by MMA fighter Sam Hoger, is an insane killer who wears a mask and likes to chop up every person he sees with his trusty axes, and he is back in these woods.
- I can examine
more of his blood.
It's not going to tell
me anything I don't know.
- Maybe not.
We've come at this from
every way imaginable.
- I'm not sure what
else we can learn.
- Maybe we should put him
back in his environment.
- That would come with risks.
- He heals very rapidly.
He uses a hundred
percent of his strength.
Humans typically tap out at 65%.
He's a superhuman, the
only one of his kind,
we need to find out what
makes his DNA different
at any cost.
- We have the woman who
fought off a polar bear
to save her son.
And the woman who lifted a
car to save her daughter.
- Sounds like you like moms.
- We have their DNA, Dr. Trask.
- Those were isolated situations
caused by life
threatening circumstances.
We cannot reproduce them
in the lab, we have tried.
- We could place cameras
throughout the woods.
Maybe we'll learn something
from his environment.
Maybe it's his surroundings
that will secrete the uric
acid purines that we can study.
- This is Dr. Trask,
prepare to deploy
subject, Ax Grinder.
- Wow, you know, a
weekend in the woods,
I was skeptical at first, but
I think it's a great idea now.
- Oh, it's gonna
be a mega blast.
- Do you have something in mind?
- You'll find out.
- You're naughty, aren't you?
- You're naughty.
- Guilty is charged.
- I'm starting to think
you had an ulterior motive
for bringing me here.
- Oh, you're starting
to figure it out.
- Tell me.
- It's awkward, I don't
wanna talk about it.
But okay, you know how
we've been best friends
since we were little kids.
- Yeah.
- And we've
been through some.
Well, I wanna be more
than just best friends.
- What do you mean?
- You know what I mean.
- Maybe, but I'm not gonna
make it easy for you.
Catch me if you can.
- Come on, I've got
big plans for us.
- Okay, you caught my interest.
- Home sweet home, buddy.
- Tell you what you gonna
change yourself, all right.
- There's all your stuff.
- Let's get outta here, man.
- Hold there.
- Oh God, you scared
the out of us.
- From the looks of it,
I scared the clothes
off you as well.
- Excuse me, can we
help you with something?
- Do you know about
these here woods?
- I know that people like
to come to these woods
to hook up in private.
- These woods belong to him.
- Oh, of course you would say
that the woods are
claimed by a man.
- Yeah, haven't you heard of
mother nature, she's not a man.
- Consider yourself warned.
- Warned about what?
- Apricot, he was leaving.
- Tell us, who are you
gonna warn us about?
- 15 years ago, Freddy Palmer
went on a killing spree
in these very woods.
And then it all went quiet
for a very long time.
Some say that he's part of
some sort of
scientific experiment,
but whatever the
reason, he's back now,
has been for a few years.
And he's more
dangerous than ever.
He has no heart.
He has no soul.
He just kills and
kills and he enjoys it.
- Okay, we get it, crazy
psycho killer with a knife.
- It's not a knife.
It's an ax.
And he'll grind
you with that ax.
And he might even eat you.
- Okay, we get the memo, bye.
- Nice to see you.
- What a creep.
- Yeah.
What if he was right
about Freddie Palmer?
- Definitely not.
I mean, we would've totally
heard about this on Twitter.
- Let's go set up.
- Run.
- Freddy just killed two people.
Are we really okay with this?
- We're looking at
an extension to life,
the cure for every known
major disease, cancer.
It's a trade off.
Are you not on board
with this, Dr. Sanders?
Because you were the
one who suggested
we returned him to
his environment.
What did you think
was going to happen?
- I don't know.
I guess I just didn't
really think it through.
- Are you having second
thoughts, Dr. Sanders?
- No.
- Are you sure?
Should I be concerned?
- No, not at all, Dr. Trask.
- Good.
- Judge Bias, I
need to talk to you.
- You don't have an appointment.
- You ruled against me.
- It was just
yesterday, I remember.
- Come on, we're neighbors.
- You opened a band
rehearsal center
next to a mental
health facility.
You were bound to
run into some issues.
- You ruled that my bands
can't play past 8:00 p.m.
Most musicians don't even
wake up until sundown.
That's not even fair.
- What do you hope to achieve
by coming to my office
without even appointment?
- Oh, if I make an
appointment, will that help?
- No.
- You know, no
evidence was provided
that our music has any
effects on the nuts next door.
- Really, the nuts?
- Oh, the mental
patients, whatever.
- Judge Bias, I thought
we had an appointment.
- We do.
Destiny here was just leaving.
- Destiny.
- Destiny's my name
and managing band is my game.
- Melinda Day, nice to meet you.
- I'm not giving up on this.
- Oh, I know you won't.
- Are you sure that it's
okay to meet now Judge Bias?
- Yes, it's fine.
And you know when no one's
around, call me Sandy.
I mean, we're friends, I've
told you this a million times.
- I'm here on an
official request.
So I was going more formal.
- All right, what
is it, Melinda?
- Well, Sandy, you know the
program I've been working on?
- The one that puts
criminals in the woods.
- You know, no one
gets rehabilitated
sitting in a jail cell, right?
I'm looking at working on them,
fixing them with proven methods
out in a camping environment,
where they can become
one with nature.
- I love your passion, Mel,
but have you really
thought about this?
- I'll only use
non-violent criminals.
We've talked about this.
I thought I had your support.
I'm ready to do
this first trial.
- I know what I said, but.
- "The eyes of the Lord
searched the whole earth
in order to fully
strengthen those
"whose hearts are
committed to him."
- Are you using the Bible on me?
Chronicles 16:9.
- All right, okay, we'll do it.
But I'm really going
out on a limb here.
So I get to pick the subjects.
- You can't force
them to volunteer?
- No, but I can reduce
their sentence by a year
and they will jump
at the chance.
- I can't thank
you enough, Sandy.
- What does your sister
think about all this?
- You're not going out
into the woods's for a week
with a bunch of
deranged criminals.
- First of all, they're
non-violent criminals,
they're not deranged.
- I'm not letting
you do this, Melinda.
- You can't stop me, Belinda.
It's a great program.
- You won't be safe.
- "Submit yourselves
therefore to God,
"resist the devil and
he'll flee from you."
- Don't quote scripture to me.
- There'll be a correction
officer with me at all times.
She's very strong.
- A woman?
- All four subjects
will be woman.
I won't be in any danger.
- Right, because woman
can't possibly be dangerous.
You hear me, Lizzy Borden?
- Lizzy Borden was never
convicted of any crime.
- I don't get you, Melinda.
You say you believe
in family support
and then you take
advice from some psychic
over your own sister.
- That's not true,
Claire just offers
a different take on things.
- She belongs in a circus.
She's a fake.
- I think she's touched by God.
- I'm coming with
you on this trip,
even if I have to take off work.
- That's not an option.
I'll be fine.
I'm a hundred percent positive.
Do you think I'll be safe
on this trip, Claire?
- I see a stranger, a
dark stranger, a man.
- I don't understand, a man?
I'm only going on
this trip with women.
- The spirits need more
rewards for more clarification.
All right, I'm seeing more now.
There's a strong woman fighting,
she's fighting for her life.
By a river, by a stream,
is there a body
of water involved?
- Lakes, my corrections
officer's name is Lakes.
- Lakes is fighting
for her life.
- Is she fighting one
of the test subjects.
- Lakes is fighting a man
a man with a mask on.
That is all I can see for today.
- Are you sure she
was fighting someone?
Maybe you picked
up something else.
- Can't you postpone this trip?
- It's my life's mission.
Everything I've done in my
career has led me to this.
- You better bring protection.
- Protection.
- Or someone else,
someone else other than
someone named Lakes.
Who names their kid?
After a body of water?
- I'm not bringing a
weapon, that's not who I am.
- Well, then you
better have a way out.
- We're dropped off for a week,
no contact with outside world.
- Don't you think
that sounds dangerous?
- No, I think it's
bold, innovative.
I certainly wouldn't
call it dangerous.
- Oh, I'm so sorry,
I didn't mean to actually
press the button.
I hope I never have
to press the button.
I'm sure I won't.
So this is a remote device
that can send a shock
through the ankle monitors
you're all wearing.
There's a smart chip
located in the strap,
so please don't tamper with it.
And this is Lakes.
She'll be joining us this week
as your corrections officer.
And she'll explain more about
the rules and the monitors.
- I don't anticipate any
trouble from any of you.
But I'm more than qualified
to deal with trouble
if it appears.
In addition to Melinda
holding the switch
that will trigger
your ankle bracelets,
it will also make a loud sound
if you go outside the
radius of five blocks
of this location.
- Five blocks?
How are we supposed to
know how far five blocks is
in these disgusting woods?
- The alarm will
make a slight sound.
Then a loud sound, if
you pass five blocks.
So you'll know.
And if you don't make it
back into the safety radius,
within 30 seconds,
you'll receive a shock
10 times as strong as
the one Cassie felt
in our demonstration.
Should be enough to render
any of you unconscious.
Any questions?
- I got a question.
Did your parents really name you
after a body of water, Lakes?
Oh.
- I forgot to mention, I
also carry a shock button.
- Oh, it's messed up.
- What if we have to take
these off for some reason?
- If you try to take them off,
you will receive
the maximum shock.
- We're out in the woods,
what if something happens?
- You can hear the traffic.
We're not that
far from the road.
Melinda has a cell phone
and I can get to the road
in the case of an emergency.
It's hard to get
reception out here.
But we don't anticipate
any emergencies,
so long as everyone cooperates.
- So I think you'll
all get the setup.
So as long as you don't run away
and everyone participates
in the exercises,
everything will be fine.
- And we'll get a
year off our sentence.
- Yes.
But what I really wanna do
is to help you, all of you.
- A year off our
sentence is a good start.
- Let's get situated with
our sleeping situation
and then we can start
a first exercise.
Follow me.
"Here I am, I stand
at the door and knock.
"If someone hears my voice
and answers the door,
"then I'll come in and
eat with that person
"and they with me."
Revelations 3:20.
- It's scripture,
she's quoting scripture.
- She's quoting scriptures to
a bunch of sinners, awesome.
- Speak for yourself,
I was framed.
- Two of you will stay
in the cabin with me.
And two of you will stay
in the tent outside.
- I claim the cabin.
- It's a reward system.
So the two of you who do the
best at the exercises each day,
get to stay in the
cabin at night.
We'll begin our
exercises inside.
- Who are you?
- Who are you?
- Unhand me you ruffian.
- Ruffian, dude's a
good judge of character.
- Nobody's been staying here.
- It's owned by the state.
We're gonna use it now
and I have a permit.
- All right, fine.
If you have a permit, I'll be
on my way, but you should too.
- Why?
- It's not safe in these woods?
Freddy Palmer is back.
He'll kill you all
if you stay here.
- Who's Freddy Palmer?
- 15 years ago, Freddy Palmer
killed a bunch of folks
in this here woods.
It all started with a young
woman jogging through the woods.
- Fuck you, asshole.
Thank you, you saved my life.
- What the fuck?
- Who the fuck are you?
Ah, fuck.
- And then he killed them all.
- No, no, no, this can't be
the place, it can't be here.
- It's the place
where Freddy killed?
- No, no it wasn't Freddy,
it was one of the campers,
some Blanche, my cousin
was one of the victims.
She drowned my cousin.
I can't stay here.
- Do you really wanna go, Jenna?
- Yes, I'm freaking out.
- Take a breath, a deep breath.
Another one.
If you need to
go, we all must go
and no one's gonna get any
credit from this program
or a reduced sentence.
But if that's what
you really want.
- It's not what
she really wants.
- Jenna?
- I think I'll be okay.
- You won't be okay,
you'll be dead.
You'll all be dead.
- You're not helping Mr.
- Joe.
- Joe, do you think it can
give us a little space?
We could really use our privacy.
- If you don't leave
right now, Joe,
I'll kick your up
and down these woods.
- Lakes, I think you could
handle this more appropriately.
- Fine, I will go,
but not because I'm
afraid of this here goon.
But remember, you'll all be.
- All be killed, we got it.
- All right.
- Let's go inside.
We could really get to know
each other a little bit better.
I want us to all share a
little bit about ourselves.
Why are we here?
Who are we?
I'll start.
I'm Melinda, we can go
by just first names here.
I'm a social
worker, as you know,
and I look for the
best and everyone.
I'm very religious and I believe
I'm here to do God's work.
So who's next?
- Remember the two who
participate the most,
get to spend the
night in the cabin.
- I go by Topper, I'm
the top of my gang,
well I was until I got busted.
- What you get busted for?
- It's none of your
fucking business.
- We don't curse here or make
others feel uneasy, Topper.
- Drugs.
What did you think?
- I'll go next.
I don't wanna sleep in a tent.
My name is Marilyn,
I was falsely accused of
blackmail, so I'm here.
- Is that all you
wanna share, Marilyn?
- Probably.
What about you, Jenna?
Do you feel up to sharing yet?
- Yeah.
Jenna here, bank robbery.
Well, I was just
a lookout, no gun.
So I qualified for the program.
- You wanna tell us
about your cousin?
- She was like an
older sister to me.
She looked out for me.
And if she was murdered
in these woods,
I don't know where, I mean,
it wasn't something
I wanted to ask.
But if that crazy guy is
right and it did happen here,
I don't know, I mean, do I
stay if it happened here?
- It happened 15
years ago, right?
- Yeah, I was just a kid.
She made an impression.
- Do you stab
lingering feelings?
- I don't know.
I miss her sometimes,
after all these
years, is that weird?
- No, not at all, Jenna.
Is there anything else?
- I don't think so.
- I'm the whore, did
you'll figure that out?
- No need to be ashamed
of sex work, Cassie.
- Well, I shouldn't be
in jail for it either.
- I fully agree.
And that's why by
staying here a week,
you'll serve no prison time.
- I guess, as long
as I don't get killed
by a crazy guy with an ax,
it will all be roses, right.
- Joe, you need to
be more careful.
- We're gonna split up into
two groups and do some hiking.
In this exercise, I
want you all to talk
about what you would do
differently in your life,
if you could change one
thing, just one thing, a redo.
Marilyn and Topper,
you'll go with Lakes
and I'll get notes from
her on what you talk about.
The others come with me.
- Pretty easy to see
who'll be sleeping
in the cabin tonight.
- Anyone need to rest?
- We can keep walking.
- I'm good.
- I think we should at
least keep hydrated.
Isn't it beautiful out here?
- It's okay.
- I think it's a perfect place
to run through
our next exercise.
- If I could change anything,
I would've talked my cousin
out of her camping trip.
You know, the one
that got her killed.
- That's an understandable
thought, Jenna,
but not very realistic.
You couldn't have known
that something was gonna happen
to her on that camping trip.
And you would still
end up a bank robber.
- The lookout, I
was the lookout.
- Come on, there must be
something you could have changed.
Maybe a relationship
you could have avoided.
- Kevin Tracks.
I should have stayed
clear from Tracks.
I knew the second I met
him, but never again.
- He led you down a
path of bad decisions.
- Yeah.
Yes, that's a hard yes.
- So if you were to meet someone
who might be a bad
influence on you again.
- I treat 'em like
country music.
- And this Tracks fellow,
have you managed to get him
completely out of your life?
- Yeah.
- Completely out?
And there's no right
or wrong answer.
Either way, you get the
year off your sentence.
So just be honest with yourself.
- Well, I would say he's not
completely outta my life yet.
- You're supposed to be sharing.
Don't all talk at once.
- How much longer
do we need to hike?
I'm getting sweaty, I hate that.
- What the hell, Topper?
Are you okay?
- My ankle, I hurt my ankle,
I don't think I
can walk anymore.
- Your ankle?
You landed on your ass.
- Well they both hurt.
Do you wanna kiss it
and make it better?
- Are you telling
me to kiss your ass?
- And my ankle.
- What were you
thinking, Topper?
Oh, hell no.
I need to go look for her.
Can you walk on your ankle?
- I don't think so, but
go look, I can wait here.
I won't go anywhere, I promise.
- Shit.
- Topper, come back.
This won't end well for you.
- No, no please.
Please.
Please, no, no.
- I can't find Topper.
We gotta go find the others.
- Oh, oh.
I can't walk on this ankle.
How about if I wait
here in the shade
until you sort this all out.
- Earlier, it was your
left ankle you hurt.
- Oh, oh, well they both hurt.
Ow, hey, this is
police brutality.
I'm gonna report you for this.
- What about you, Cassie?
What thing in your life would
you change, if you could?
- That's easy, everything.
- I'm sure there's one thing.
- I would trust people less.
- That's good.
Go on.
- Well, I trusted that
cop who busted me.
I even asked him if he
was a cop and he said, no.
They have all these shootings
and politicians sleep with
whoever they want to me.
I get arrested just one trick.
It's not fair.
- So you think you might
trust your clients too much,
how they represent themselves
and you would change that?
- Well, I didn't exactly
have the greatest childhood.
Took me a long time to
learn to trust people.
Never again.
- Where'd you grow up?
- I was born in Germany.
I had a military family, moved
around a lot, blah, blah.
- Where's Topper?
- I lost her.
- And you couldn't
hear her monitor.
- I think she must
have found a way
to remove it or
silence it or both.
- No service.
Let's go to the cabin.
It's gonna get dark soon.
I'll head towards the route.
I know there's reception there
and we can call in
Topper's escape.
We can spend the night here,
but the judge might make
us come back tomorrow.
- Does that mean we spend 24
hours in these disgusting woods
and still don't get
a reduced sentence?
- I don't know exactly
what that means.
I didn't expect for someone
to escape on the first day.
- Cassie and Jenna will
spend the night in the cabin.
Marilyn and I will spend
the night in the tent.
- This just keeps getting
better and better.
- So am I gonna be safe
if we share the bed?
- Well, unless you're pain
me, I'm not touching you.
- Sorry, I didn't
mean to joke about.
- About us sleeping
in the same bed?
Don't worry, I'm a funny whore.
I mean, at least one
with a sense of humor.
Not like stand up, you
know, I prefer laying down.
All right, you are a bank
robber with no sense of humor.
- I'm not a robber.
- Right, right, right, lookout.
- This is stupid, guys
are stupid, they suck.
And I don't know why
I listen to them.
- You know, they do suck
and not like a sex joke.
I mean guys, they all suck.
It's just a fact.
- Yeah, I guess so.
Did he see that?
- What?
- Something just
past our window.
- Maybe it was Lakes.
- What even is up
with her name, Lakes?
- Do you want me
to go check it out?
- What if that
crazy guy is right
that there is some serial
killer in the woods?
- You don't believe
that, do you?
They caught your
cousin's killer, right?
- Yeah, I guess so.
- I'll go check it out.
- Okay.
Be careful.
- I'll be fine.
I didn't find any crazed killer.
- Not even a peeper.
- Oh, I definitely wouldn't
wanna meet a peeper
who lives out here?
I prefer my peepers
to live in the city.
- Thanks.
I can probably sleep now.
What?
There's something
you're not telling me.
- No, it's nothing.
- No, tell me.
- I thought I saw something.
- What?
- Bigfoot.
I mean, I probably
imagined it, right?
- Did you see it for long?
- Just a second.
- Was it dark?
- Very dark.
- Trust me, you
didn't see Bigfoot.
I hope.
- Time we get some sleep.
What?
- What if we need to,
you know, use a bathroom?
- Look around, the
bathroom surrounds you.
- But what about number two?
- You can do it
anywhere, any number.
- This just keeps
getting worse and worse.
- Just don't do
it near the tents.
- Okay, there's
definitely someone here.
- Okay, let's both
look this time.
- Bad feeling about this.
- Hello there.
- God, what are you doing?
- Joe.
- What the hell, Joe?
- I just needed to warn ya.
- You already did that.
15 years ago, some killer
ran around the woods.
We get it.
- I didn't get a chance
to tell you though.
He's back.
He's back here again,
the last few years,
killing a bunch of
people out here.
- What do you mean?
- He's been killing
kids and sheriffs too.
- What you doing?
- Oh, the best thing to do
is split up and go back home.
- That's a horrible idea.
- Okay, I'm gonna go this
way, you go that way.
- Please, I'm an.
- What the fuck is going on?
What?
- So you can see, he's
back and he's killing.
He's doing his killing
again and again.
- Joe, we are leaving
tomorrow, okay.
As soon as our leader gets
someone to pick us up.
- You don't have a way
out of here, do you?
- Usually I just walk down
to town when I need to.
But most of the time I live
right here in these woods.
- Well, we are
walking out tomorrow.
So thank you for your stories.
But we need to get
some sleep now.
We promise we'll leave as
soon as it's light out.
- Good to hear that.
Gratified that my stories
might have swayed you,
if they've done that.
- Okay, goodnight.
- Wait, if you see someone,
can you tell them to call for
help, let 'em know we're here.
- I'll be seeing no one tonight.
- Wait, wait, wait.
Do you happen to own
a Bigfoot costume?
- Afraid not.
Anything else?
- Nope.
Bye.
- I'm really tired.
- I know, I think we should
be able to sleep now.
God, I just hope he doesn't
bother Lakes of Marilyn.
- Lakes, no.
- Oh not again.
- The crazy old guy was right,
there's a killer in the woods.
He hacked up Lakes,
it was awful.
- We need to lock
ourselves in here.
Go, go, go, go.
- There's no lock on the door.
- Do you really think
it's the best idea
to lock ourselves in here?
Shouldn't we make a run for it?
- A run for what?
- We can't get far with
these ankle monitors on.
- And it's dark out, we
don't even know where to go.
- I hope Melinda's
able to call for help.
I mean, we're supposed to
get picked up tomorrow.
- Okay, this is our best chance.
We keep safe in here and
maybe get picked up tomorrow.
- I wonder if Topper
really got away
or if she got, you know.
- They say that
you're my brother,
but I don't know
I have a brother.
- I don't understand.
- I don't understand either.
I only know what
your mind tells me.
- What does it tell you?
- Our parents were
horrible to you.
Locked you up, beat you.
But I was abandoned,
raised by others.
So I don't know
I have a brother.
- It's good that they
left you for others.
Do you love me?
- I don't know.
I've never met you.
- Our father,
he knew where you lived.
He had photos.
He followed you.
But he never hurt you.
- Freddy was busy last night.
- I saw the footage.
Seems like some pretty
high profile kills,
social worker,
corrections officer.
- We should get him pretty soon.
I think we'll be able to study
him more successfully now.
- He stimulated, his
DNA will be active.
- Let's give him 24 hours more,
finish what he
started, no witnesses.
We'll get him first
thing tomorrow morning.
I think
we should stay here
until someone comes for us.
- We don't know if
someone will come for us.
I mean maybe Melinda, maybe
something happened to her
before we could make the call.
- That psycho
definitely killed her.
- Well, if we try to
get away, he'll kill us.
You didn't see what I saw.
- Do you think this door
will hold or I mean,
he won't get
through the windows?
- So it's a plan, Einstein.
- We go near the tent.
I'll make a distraction, while
you two hide behind a tent.
- It's three against one.
- Yeah.
- You want us to
fight this freak?
- You can surprise him.
Hit him with a rock or a stick
and then I'll grab the ax and
I'll just kill the asshole.
- You're crazy.
- What, you have a
better plan, say it now.
- I'm in, I'll try it.
If he's really the one
who killed my cousin,
I owe it to her.
He's going down.
- Come on, Marilyn, we need you.
- Fine, let's try it.
- Hey.
Do you like my dance?
I can sing too.
- Go, go.
Is he dead?
It looks like it.
Maybe you
should kick him again.
- It worked.
You plan worked.
- Okay now we walk so
that our alarms go off.
- I just wanna say that, well,
I've always had things
handed to me in life
and it wasn't until
I met the two of you
that I realized what
is important in life
and that's pulling together.
- We need a better plan.
- What?
We can't get away with
these stupid bracelets on.
- Then help me get mine off.
- Stop, we'll get
shocked in the process.
- Then keep going
until it's off.
And when that's out, we
can run for our life.
Get it out, get out.
- Cassie, Cassie.
Cassie, wake up.
At least it's off.
You have to make a run for it.
Go that way, go, go, go.
- You need to come too.
- I don't have time to
take my bracelet off.
You get help and
come back for me.
Go, go now, go.
No, no, no, please stop, no.
No, no, no.
Come on, come on, come on.
No, no, no, please
no, please no.
Only one left,
then no more witnesses.
- When do you
wanna retrieve him?
- We can do that any time.
I'm sure he'll be done
by the time we arrive.
- I see that the final living
subject is Cassie Johnson.
She was a prostitute.
She might be very resourceful.
Perhaps we should wait until
he's finished with her.
- Do you have a fondness
for whores, Dr. Sanders?
- Why do you ask that?
Now I didn't say
I wanna meet her,
I said we should wait
until she's dead.
- Is that how you
like your whores?
You like them when they're dead.
That's how you like
to play with them.
- That is completely
inappropriate, Dr. Trask.
- Do strong women
threaten you Dr. Sanders?
Is that why you prefer
them to be dead?
- I don't like this
line of inquiry at all.
- You need to relax Dr. Sanders.
We've known each
other for a long time.
You need to have some fun.
We can go get 'em right now,
I'll make sure the whore
doesn't bother you.
I'll see to it personally.
Jones prepare the van
and Smith come in now,
I know you're right
outside the door.
Smith, I'll be accompanying
you to the woods, all right.
- Yes, Dr. Trask.
- You know, I like that
you chose the name Smith.
It's not your real
name, I know that.
It shows me though that
you're a man of simple means.
Am I right?
- Dr. Trask, this is
making me uncomfortable.
- She does that to everybody.
- Do you like my legs, Smith?
- I don't know,
I guess so, yeah.
- Is that why you position
yourself right outside the door?
- Oh, no, no, no Doctor.
- Then are you a spy,
listening to our experiments,
reporting back to someone?
- No Dr. Trask.
- Then why do you wait
right outside the door?
Because Jones doesn't do it.
It has to be about
my legs, come on.
- Oh, okay, I like your legs.
I mean, I like you, you're
attractive Dr. Trask, I'm sorry.
- You are very, very sorry.
Now go get the van ready.
- Yes, Dr. Trask.
- For Freddy.
- I don't usually take
clients this early.
- Do you know who I am?
- I wouldn't be
much of a psychic
if I didn't know who you are.
I know your face,
Melinda, Belinda.
- I'm not like my
sister, you can't con me.
- So then why are you here?
- If you're psychic,
you know why I'm here.
- Is it to gimme your
cousin Tiffany's number?
She's a real hoochie coochie.
- Oh, what a waste of time.
- Sit.
I know you're worried
about your sister.
Believe it or not,
she's my friend too.
- She had a lot of faith in you.
- And you don't have faith
in much of anything, do you?
Except your sister.
- So what do I do?
- You need to go find her fast.
- Okay, I will.
- You haven't heard from her?
- No, her signal's
getting weaker.
- Do I owe you something?
- I'll settle for your cousin
Tiffany's phone number.
- Why?
- Well, she's cute and the
true reason I cannot say.
- Okay, I'll text
you her number.
I'm worried about Melinda.
She said she'd call at 9:00
a.m. every morning to check in.
- Have you tried calling her?
- Yes, no response.
- I tried calling her too,
but maybe she doesn't have
a reception where she's at.
- I have a bad feeling.
- Have you been speaking to
your sister's so-called psychic?
- I don't believe
in that crap either.
Something's telling
me something is wrong.
- So you haven't gone
to see her psychic.
- I did.
Come on, just tell me
where the rah, rah, get
outta jail free group is
and I'll go check
them out myself.
- Okay, well that
wouldn't be appropriate.
And they don't get
outta jail free,
okay, one year off
their sentence.
- Melinda can make us believe
in anything, can't she?
- She gives you hope when
there just isn't any.
- Come on, doesn't
your gut tell you
that something went wrong?
Her and one other officer
against four criminals.
- Nonviolent criminals.
- I'm not leaving
until you do something.
- You're just as
stubborn as she is.
Fine, I'll call the park ranger
to go check things out.
- Park Ranger Amanda
Briggs, identify yourself.
- I'm so glad to see you.
I need to help everyone is dead.
- Who's dead?
Identify yourself.
- I couldn't stop
him, he's a psycho.
- You need to relax
and identify yourself.
- How do you want me to relax,
if you're pointing a
taser at me and a killer
could come out in
literally any minute.
- Sit on the ground now
and put your hands
behind your back.
- Why won't you listen to me.
- Now.
Now, what's your name?
- Cassie Johnson.
I'm part of that test group.
- The one with the prisoners,
camping for the week.
- Yes.
Melinda was our leader
and one of us got away or
who knows, maybe got killed.
And then Melinda went
to call for help.
She couldn't give
reception at the camp.
- Did you hear from
Melinda after she left?
- No, some crazy guys
showed up in a mask
and he killed Lakes and
then he killed Marilyn
and probably killed Jenna too.
- Was that the rest
of the prisoners?
- Everyone got killed.
And we need to get outta
here before he finds us.
- Is that blood on your shoe?
- I hit him with an ax.
- Did you kill him?
- No.
He got up and killed
Marilyn right after,
and then he followed
us to the camp
and my guess is, killed
Jenna there as well.
- I'll call for backup.
Hi Judge Bias, I'm
near the campsite now.
- Did she find Melinda?
- No, just someone
named Cassie Johnson.
- She's one of the subjects.
Does she know where Melinda is?
- She says that when one of
the prisoners tried to escape,
that Melinda went
to call for help.
They don't get cell
reception near of the camp.
And Judge, the prisoner
says that someone
has tried to kill everyone else.
- Jesus.
Well go check it out.
- I was just about
to call for backup.
- I'll call for your backup.
Go investigate the
camp, don't wait.
- But Judge, that's
not procedure.
- If Melinda is in danger,
she needs to be found, go now.
- But Ma'am.
- You owe me a
favor, do you not?
- If Melinda's in
there, I'll find her.
- What are you doing?
- Show me the bodies.
- But we can't go back there.
- I could always tase you in
the leg and go look myself.
- Can you uncuff me at least?
- Just keep walking.
- No, I can't walk with
my hands behind my back.
- Let 'em in front.
- No, come on.
- Do it.
- Are you into
bondage, Ranger Ricks?
I'll let you do anything,
if you let my hands go free.
- Just keep walking.
- Ah, seriously, I can't
walk with these handcuffs on.
Like, have you ever tried it?
- Get up.
- No, I'm staying down here
unless you wanna
explain why you tased
an unarmed handcuffed hooker.
- Just remember,
I have a weapon.
No shenanigans.
- Shenanigans wow.
It's like you read too
many 1960s comic books.
This is where Lakes was.
- No sign of a struggle
here, no sign of a death.
- Well, I didn't see what
happened to Lakes here.
Marilyn just told us
that she saw her killed.
- What did you actually
witness yourself?
- I saw him kill Marilyn,
it was right here
where we're standing.
- How was she killed?
- It was an ax.
- The same one you used on him?
- Yes, I guess I
must have set it down
after we thought he was dead.
- Does look like a body might
have been dragged from here.
- Yeah, he dragged
the bodies away and,
God he doesn't pleasure
himself with the bodies,
that's disgusting.
- Some killers are cannibals.
- Oh, oh that's worse.
- You said there
was another killing.
Where did that happen?
- Probably at the cabin.
- Show me.
- Okay, be ready, in
case he's in here.
- Just walk in, I
know what I'm doing.
- He must have taken
all the bodies away.
- Would you like to
confess anything?
- Come on, just think about it.
Do I look like someone
who would hurt anyone?
- What's down the hall?
- The bedroom.
- Show me.
- Go look at it
yourself, Ranger Rick.
- Stop calling me that.
Go.
- Jesus.
Fine.
- Put your hands
behind your back.
- Oh, come, you don't
think I did this,
do you?
- Now.
- This is Ranger Briggs,
I found the body of Melinda
Day, she's been murdered.
I'm at the Cabin
at Stones Creek.
I have one suspect in custody.
- Come in.
Have a seat.
- It's bad news, isn't it?
- I'm afraid so.
- Just say it, Melinda's
dead, isn't she?
- She was murdered.
- Why'd you ever let them
try that fucking experiment?
- I'm so sorry.
- You know it's painful.
I should never let her try it.
- No, it's not your
fault, Belinda.
Look, it was her program, okay.
It was her passion,
she wanted to do this.
You know her, you know
what she was about.
- What happened?
- I don't really know right now.
It looks like one
of the subjects.
- You mean one of the prisoners?
- One of the prisoners escaped,
Melinda went to
go find reception.
One of the other prisoners
got their ankle monitor off
and killed some of
the other prisoners.
- And Melinda?
- Apparently so.
- So what happens
to the prisoner now?
- I'm not quite sure.
She was a non-violent
prisoner and she just snapped.
- So insanity, plea?
- Possibly.
But I just think there's
more to this story
than we know right now.
- Freddy.
Where are you at, Freddy boy?
Are you out here, Freddy?
Looking high and
low for you today.
- Think we gave him enough, Doc?
- Yeah, that's enough
to put out an elephant.
- What if it's not enough?
- You worry too much, Smith.
- Time to go home, Freddy.
- You can leave us.
Hello Cassie.
I'm judge Sandy Bias.
- And I'm the queen of England.
- I'm hoping that you'll tell
me what happened at the camp.
- I already told everyone,
who wouldn't listen.
Freddie Palmer the psycho,
killed everyone, except for me.
The only one who got away.
- They found Melinda's body,
and she was a friend of mine.
- Yeah, I don't know what he
did with the other bodies.
- Your defense attorney
is a public defender
whose case rests on
convincing a jury
that Lakes was in on it,
that she freed the prisoners
and one of them killed Melinda.
But that's just speculation.
- Yeah, I'm not going
to lie about that story.
I already told the PD that.
It was Freddy Palmer.
- Freddy Palmer is a myth.
It's like Bigfoot.
You're gonna argue that
Bigfoot killed everyone?
- Well, if Bigfoot did
it, then yes, I would.
In fact, I actually
thought I saw Bigfoot
at one point near the cabin.
- Do you know how
crazy that sounds?
- Well, it wasn't Bigfoot okay.
It was Freddy Palmer
who did the killing.
Just forget about Bigfoot, God.
- The murder weapon was found.
The ax that killed Melinda
has your DNA on it.
- Yeah, I used the
ax to kill Freddy.
- Then where's Freddy's body?
- He didn't die, okay.
We just thought I killed him.
- So you imagined it?
- I know what you're
trying to do, all right.
And it won't work.
- I'm just trying
to get to the truth.
I have a hard time believing
that you killed
everyone by yourself
and hid all the bodies so
well that they can't be found.
- Right, and no jury
will believe that.
- I don't believe
you killed Melinda.
Her blood was found on you.
- Yeah, she fell on me.
Ranger Rick saw that.
- Your DNA is on
the murder weapon.
Melinda's blood is on
you and you had a motive.
So why don't you
let me help you.
- I am done talking
to you, okay,
you can talk to my
crappy public defender
if you got anything else to say.
- I think he needs another
sedative, Dr. Sanders.
And then we'll extract the
uric purines from his liver.
- No.
- Freddy speaks.
Did you know he could speak?
- I did not.
- Freddy, do you
have anything to say
before we gather this
generous donation,
your body for the
advancement of science?
- Let me go or I'll
kill you slowly.
- Sedative, please.
There, there, get a
good sleep now, Freddy.
- I'll kill you,
I'll make it hurt.
- Do you enjoy killing Freddy?
What's happening here is
your redemption, ours too,
for all the terrible
things we've done.
But the world will
be a better place
with your blood and DNA.
- If I sleep, even for a
moment, I'll wake up stronger.
And snap your neck.
- Now Dr. Trask?
- One moment.
Sweet dreams dark prince.
You may continue.
Still rolling.
Five minutes left
and action.
- Go.
- Fine, Jesus.
Sorry
I didn't mean to.
I'm still rolling.
Okay I got it.
Were you
making faces at her?
Yeah, inside joke.
- What about you Cassie?
- Cassie and Jenna will
spend the night in the tent.
Marilyn and I.
Oh.
- Yeah.
- Sorry.
- I'm sorry.
- I was gonna get excited,
but then I'm like no it's not.
- Should I just take it
from my line?
- Yeah, take.
- Would we?
448,
440,
take one.
Are you rolling?
I'm rolling.
- Wait, can we?
That was so fast.
- Yeah, we weren't, hold
on, I was not ready.
Do the second kick.
- Woo.
- Oh.
Oops.
- Try it again.
Now one more.
- Did it move?
Oh, oh, oh, oh.
Oh, I
guess it's a butterfly.
- It's 'cause it's long one.
more of his blood.
It's not going to tell
me anything I don't know.
- Maybe not.
We've come at this from
every way imaginable.
- I'm not sure what
else we can learn.
- Maybe we should put him
back in his environment.
- That would come with risks.
- He heals very rapidly.
He uses a hundred
percent of his strength.
Humans typically tap out at 65%.
He's a superhuman, the
only one of his kind,
we need to find out what
makes his DNA different
at any cost.
- We have the woman who
fought off a polar bear
to save her son.
And the woman who lifted a
car to save her daughter.
- Sounds like you like moms.
- We have their DNA, Dr. Trask.
- Those were isolated situations
caused by life
threatening circumstances.
We cannot reproduce them
in the lab, we have tried.
- We could place cameras
throughout the woods.
Maybe we'll learn something
from his environment.
Maybe it's his surroundings
that will secrete the uric
acid purines that we can study.
- This is Dr. Trask,
prepare to deploy
subject, Ax Grinder.
- Wow, you know, a
weekend in the woods,
I was skeptical at first, but
I think it's a great idea now.
- Oh, it's gonna
be a mega blast.
- Do you have something in mind?
- You'll find out.
- You're naughty, aren't you?
- You're naughty.
- Guilty is charged.
- I'm starting to think
you had an ulterior motive
for bringing me here.
- Oh, you're starting
to figure it out.
- Tell me.
- It's awkward, I don't
wanna talk about it.
But okay, you know how
we've been best friends
since we were little kids.
- Yeah.
- And we've
been through some.
Well, I wanna be more
than just best friends.
- What do you mean?
- You know what I mean.
- Maybe, but I'm not gonna
make it easy for you.
Catch me if you can.
- Come on, I've got
big plans for us.
- Okay, you caught my interest.
- Home sweet home, buddy.
- Tell you what you gonna
change yourself, all right.
- There's all your stuff.
- Let's get outta here, man.
- Hold there.
- Oh God, you scared
the out of us.
- From the looks of it,
I scared the clothes
off you as well.
- Excuse me, can we
help you with something?
- Do you know about
these here woods?
- I know that people like
to come to these woods
to hook up in private.
- These woods belong to him.
- Oh, of course you would say
that the woods are
claimed by a man.
- Yeah, haven't you heard of
mother nature, she's not a man.
- Consider yourself warned.
- Warned about what?
- Apricot, he was leaving.
- Tell us, who are you
gonna warn us about?
- 15 years ago, Freddy Palmer
went on a killing spree
in these very woods.
And then it all went quiet
for a very long time.
Some say that he's part of
some sort of
scientific experiment,
but whatever the
reason, he's back now,
has been for a few years.
And he's more
dangerous than ever.
He has no heart.
He has no soul.
He just kills and
kills and he enjoys it.
- Okay, we get it, crazy
psycho killer with a knife.
- It's not a knife.
It's an ax.
And he'll grind
you with that ax.
And he might even eat you.
- Okay, we get the memo, bye.
- Nice to see you.
- What a creep.
- Yeah.
What if he was right
about Freddie Palmer?
- Definitely not.
I mean, we would've totally
heard about this on Twitter.
- Let's go set up.
- Run.
- Freddy just killed two people.
Are we really okay with this?
- We're looking at
an extension to life,
the cure for every known
major disease, cancer.
It's a trade off.
Are you not on board
with this, Dr. Sanders?
Because you were the
one who suggested
we returned him to
his environment.
What did you think
was going to happen?
- I don't know.
I guess I just didn't
really think it through.
- Are you having second
thoughts, Dr. Sanders?
- No.
- Are you sure?
Should I be concerned?
- No, not at all, Dr. Trask.
- Good.
- Judge Bias, I
need to talk to you.
- You don't have an appointment.
- You ruled against me.
- It was just
yesterday, I remember.
- Come on, we're neighbors.
- You opened a band
rehearsal center
next to a mental
health facility.
You were bound to
run into some issues.
- You ruled that my bands
can't play past 8:00 p.m.
Most musicians don't even
wake up until sundown.
That's not even fair.
- What do you hope to achieve
by coming to my office
without even appointment?
- Oh, if I make an
appointment, will that help?
- No.
- You know, no
evidence was provided
that our music has any
effects on the nuts next door.
- Really, the nuts?
- Oh, the mental
patients, whatever.
- Judge Bias, I thought
we had an appointment.
- We do.
Destiny here was just leaving.
- Destiny.
- Destiny's my name
and managing band is my game.
- Melinda Day, nice to meet you.
- I'm not giving up on this.
- Oh, I know you won't.
- Are you sure that it's
okay to meet now Judge Bias?
- Yes, it's fine.
And you know when no one's
around, call me Sandy.
I mean, we're friends, I've
told you this a million times.
- I'm here on an
official request.
So I was going more formal.
- All right, what
is it, Melinda?
- Well, Sandy, you know the
program I've been working on?
- The one that puts
criminals in the woods.
- You know, no one
gets rehabilitated
sitting in a jail cell, right?
I'm looking at working on them,
fixing them with proven methods
out in a camping environment,
where they can become
one with nature.
- I love your passion, Mel,
but have you really
thought about this?
- I'll only use
non-violent criminals.
We've talked about this.
I thought I had your support.
I'm ready to do
this first trial.
- I know what I said, but.
- "The eyes of the Lord
searched the whole earth
in order to fully
strengthen those
"whose hearts are
committed to him."
- Are you using the Bible on me?
Chronicles 16:9.
- All right, okay, we'll do it.
But I'm really going
out on a limb here.
So I get to pick the subjects.
- You can't force
them to volunteer?
- No, but I can reduce
their sentence by a year
and they will jump
at the chance.
- I can't thank
you enough, Sandy.
- What does your sister
think about all this?
- You're not going out
into the woods's for a week
with a bunch of
deranged criminals.
- First of all, they're
non-violent criminals,
they're not deranged.
- I'm not letting
you do this, Melinda.
- You can't stop me, Belinda.
It's a great program.
- You won't be safe.
- "Submit yourselves
therefore to God,
"resist the devil and
he'll flee from you."
- Don't quote scripture to me.
- There'll be a correction
officer with me at all times.
She's very strong.
- A woman?
- All four subjects
will be woman.
I won't be in any danger.
- Right, because woman
can't possibly be dangerous.
You hear me, Lizzy Borden?
- Lizzy Borden was never
convicted of any crime.
- I don't get you, Melinda.
You say you believe
in family support
and then you take
advice from some psychic
over your own sister.
- That's not true,
Claire just offers
a different take on things.
- She belongs in a circus.
She's a fake.
- I think she's touched by God.
- I'm coming with
you on this trip,
even if I have to take off work.
- That's not an option.
I'll be fine.
I'm a hundred percent positive.
Do you think I'll be safe
on this trip, Claire?
- I see a stranger, a
dark stranger, a man.
- I don't understand, a man?
I'm only going on
this trip with women.
- The spirits need more
rewards for more clarification.
All right, I'm seeing more now.
There's a strong woman fighting,
she's fighting for her life.
By a river, by a stream,
is there a body
of water involved?
- Lakes, my corrections
officer's name is Lakes.
- Lakes is fighting
for her life.
- Is she fighting one
of the test subjects.
- Lakes is fighting a man
a man with a mask on.
That is all I can see for today.
- Are you sure she
was fighting someone?
Maybe you picked
up something else.
- Can't you postpone this trip?
- It's my life's mission.
Everything I've done in my
career has led me to this.
- You better bring protection.
- Protection.
- Or someone else,
someone else other than
someone named Lakes.
Who names their kid?
After a body of water?
- I'm not bringing a
weapon, that's not who I am.
- Well, then you
better have a way out.
- We're dropped off for a week,
no contact with outside world.
- Don't you think
that sounds dangerous?
- No, I think it's
bold, innovative.
I certainly wouldn't
call it dangerous.
- Oh, I'm so sorry,
I didn't mean to actually
press the button.
I hope I never have
to press the button.
I'm sure I won't.
So this is a remote device
that can send a shock
through the ankle monitors
you're all wearing.
There's a smart chip
located in the strap,
so please don't tamper with it.
And this is Lakes.
She'll be joining us this week
as your corrections officer.
And she'll explain more about
the rules and the monitors.
- I don't anticipate any
trouble from any of you.
But I'm more than qualified
to deal with trouble
if it appears.
In addition to Melinda
holding the switch
that will trigger
your ankle bracelets,
it will also make a loud sound
if you go outside the
radius of five blocks
of this location.
- Five blocks?
How are we supposed to
know how far five blocks is
in these disgusting woods?
- The alarm will
make a slight sound.
Then a loud sound, if
you pass five blocks.
So you'll know.
And if you don't make it
back into the safety radius,
within 30 seconds,
you'll receive a shock
10 times as strong as
the one Cassie felt
in our demonstration.
Should be enough to render
any of you unconscious.
Any questions?
- I got a question.
Did your parents really name you
after a body of water, Lakes?
Oh.
- I forgot to mention, I
also carry a shock button.
- Oh, it's messed up.
- What if we have to take
these off for some reason?
- If you try to take them off,
you will receive
the maximum shock.
- We're out in the woods,
what if something happens?
- You can hear the traffic.
We're not that
far from the road.
Melinda has a cell phone
and I can get to the road
in the case of an emergency.
It's hard to get
reception out here.
But we don't anticipate
any emergencies,
so long as everyone cooperates.
- So I think you'll
all get the setup.
So as long as you don't run away
and everyone participates
in the exercises,
everything will be fine.
- And we'll get a
year off our sentence.
- Yes.
But what I really wanna do
is to help you, all of you.
- A year off our
sentence is a good start.
- Let's get situated with
our sleeping situation
and then we can start
a first exercise.
Follow me.
"Here I am, I stand
at the door and knock.
"If someone hears my voice
and answers the door,
"then I'll come in and
eat with that person
"and they with me."
Revelations 3:20.
- It's scripture,
she's quoting scripture.
- She's quoting scriptures to
a bunch of sinners, awesome.
- Speak for yourself,
I was framed.
- Two of you will stay
in the cabin with me.
And two of you will stay
in the tent outside.
- I claim the cabin.
- It's a reward system.
So the two of you who do the
best at the exercises each day,
get to stay in the
cabin at night.
We'll begin our
exercises inside.
- Who are you?
- Who are you?
- Unhand me you ruffian.
- Ruffian, dude's a
good judge of character.
- Nobody's been staying here.
- It's owned by the state.
We're gonna use it now
and I have a permit.
- All right, fine.
If you have a permit, I'll be
on my way, but you should too.
- Why?
- It's not safe in these woods?
Freddy Palmer is back.
He'll kill you all
if you stay here.
- Who's Freddy Palmer?
- 15 years ago, Freddy Palmer
killed a bunch of folks
in this here woods.
It all started with a young
woman jogging through the woods.
- Fuck you, asshole.
Thank you, you saved my life.
- What the fuck?
- Who the fuck are you?
Ah, fuck.
- And then he killed them all.
- No, no, no, this can't be
the place, it can't be here.
- It's the place
where Freddy killed?
- No, no it wasn't Freddy,
it was one of the campers,
some Blanche, my cousin
was one of the victims.
She drowned my cousin.
I can't stay here.
- Do you really wanna go, Jenna?
- Yes, I'm freaking out.
- Take a breath, a deep breath.
Another one.
If you need to
go, we all must go
and no one's gonna get any
credit from this program
or a reduced sentence.
But if that's what
you really want.
- It's not what
she really wants.
- Jenna?
- I think I'll be okay.
- You won't be okay,
you'll be dead.
You'll all be dead.
- You're not helping Mr.
- Joe.
- Joe, do you think it can
give us a little space?
We could really use our privacy.
- If you don't leave
right now, Joe,
I'll kick your up
and down these woods.
- Lakes, I think you could
handle this more appropriately.
- Fine, I will go,
but not because I'm
afraid of this here goon.
But remember, you'll all be.
- All be killed, we got it.
- All right.
- Let's go inside.
We could really get to know
each other a little bit better.
I want us to all share a
little bit about ourselves.
Why are we here?
Who are we?
I'll start.
I'm Melinda, we can go
by just first names here.
I'm a social
worker, as you know,
and I look for the
best and everyone.
I'm very religious and I believe
I'm here to do God's work.
So who's next?
- Remember the two who
participate the most,
get to spend the
night in the cabin.
- I go by Topper, I'm
the top of my gang,
well I was until I got busted.
- What you get busted for?
- It's none of your
fucking business.
- We don't curse here or make
others feel uneasy, Topper.
- Drugs.
What did you think?
- I'll go next.
I don't wanna sleep in a tent.
My name is Marilyn,
I was falsely accused of
blackmail, so I'm here.
- Is that all you
wanna share, Marilyn?
- Probably.
What about you, Jenna?
Do you feel up to sharing yet?
- Yeah.
Jenna here, bank robbery.
Well, I was just
a lookout, no gun.
So I qualified for the program.
- You wanna tell us
about your cousin?
- She was like an
older sister to me.
She looked out for me.
And if she was murdered
in these woods,
I don't know where, I mean,
it wasn't something
I wanted to ask.
But if that crazy guy is
right and it did happen here,
I don't know, I mean, do I
stay if it happened here?
- It happened 15
years ago, right?
- Yeah, I was just a kid.
She made an impression.
- Do you stab
lingering feelings?
- I don't know.
I miss her sometimes,
after all these
years, is that weird?
- No, not at all, Jenna.
Is there anything else?
- I don't think so.
- I'm the whore, did
you'll figure that out?
- No need to be ashamed
of sex work, Cassie.
- Well, I shouldn't be
in jail for it either.
- I fully agree.
And that's why by
staying here a week,
you'll serve no prison time.
- I guess, as long
as I don't get killed
by a crazy guy with an ax,
it will all be roses, right.
- Joe, you need to
be more careful.
- We're gonna split up into
two groups and do some hiking.
In this exercise, I
want you all to talk
about what you would do
differently in your life,
if you could change one
thing, just one thing, a redo.
Marilyn and Topper,
you'll go with Lakes
and I'll get notes from
her on what you talk about.
The others come with me.
- Pretty easy to see
who'll be sleeping
in the cabin tonight.
- Anyone need to rest?
- We can keep walking.
- I'm good.
- I think we should at
least keep hydrated.
Isn't it beautiful out here?
- It's okay.
- I think it's a perfect place
to run through
our next exercise.
- If I could change anything,
I would've talked my cousin
out of her camping trip.
You know, the one
that got her killed.
- That's an understandable
thought, Jenna,
but not very realistic.
You couldn't have known
that something was gonna happen
to her on that camping trip.
And you would still
end up a bank robber.
- The lookout, I
was the lookout.
- Come on, there must be
something you could have changed.
Maybe a relationship
you could have avoided.
- Kevin Tracks.
I should have stayed
clear from Tracks.
I knew the second I met
him, but never again.
- He led you down a
path of bad decisions.
- Yeah.
Yes, that's a hard yes.
- So if you were to meet someone
who might be a bad
influence on you again.
- I treat 'em like
country music.
- And this Tracks fellow,
have you managed to get him
completely out of your life?
- Yeah.
- Completely out?
And there's no right
or wrong answer.
Either way, you get the
year off your sentence.
So just be honest with yourself.
- Well, I would say he's not
completely outta my life yet.
- You're supposed to be sharing.
Don't all talk at once.
- How much longer
do we need to hike?
I'm getting sweaty, I hate that.
- What the hell, Topper?
Are you okay?
- My ankle, I hurt my ankle,
I don't think I
can walk anymore.
- Your ankle?
You landed on your ass.
- Well they both hurt.
Do you wanna kiss it
and make it better?
- Are you telling
me to kiss your ass?
- And my ankle.
- What were you
thinking, Topper?
Oh, hell no.
I need to go look for her.
Can you walk on your ankle?
- I don't think so, but
go look, I can wait here.
I won't go anywhere, I promise.
- Shit.
- Topper, come back.
This won't end well for you.
- No, no please.
Please.
Please, no, no.
- I can't find Topper.
We gotta go find the others.
- Oh, oh.
I can't walk on this ankle.
How about if I wait
here in the shade
until you sort this all out.
- Earlier, it was your
left ankle you hurt.
- Oh, oh, well they both hurt.
Ow, hey, this is
police brutality.
I'm gonna report you for this.
- What about you, Cassie?
What thing in your life would
you change, if you could?
- That's easy, everything.
- I'm sure there's one thing.
- I would trust people less.
- That's good.
Go on.
- Well, I trusted that
cop who busted me.
I even asked him if he
was a cop and he said, no.
They have all these shootings
and politicians sleep with
whoever they want to me.
I get arrested just one trick.
It's not fair.
- So you think you might
trust your clients too much,
how they represent themselves
and you would change that?
- Well, I didn't exactly
have the greatest childhood.
Took me a long time to
learn to trust people.
Never again.
- Where'd you grow up?
- I was born in Germany.
I had a military family, moved
around a lot, blah, blah.
- Where's Topper?
- I lost her.
- And you couldn't
hear her monitor.
- I think she must
have found a way
to remove it or
silence it or both.
- No service.
Let's go to the cabin.
It's gonna get dark soon.
I'll head towards the route.
I know there's reception there
and we can call in
Topper's escape.
We can spend the night here,
but the judge might make
us come back tomorrow.
- Does that mean we spend 24
hours in these disgusting woods
and still don't get
a reduced sentence?
- I don't know exactly
what that means.
I didn't expect for someone
to escape on the first day.
- Cassie and Jenna will
spend the night in the cabin.
Marilyn and I will spend
the night in the tent.
- This just keeps getting
better and better.
- So am I gonna be safe
if we share the bed?
- Well, unless you're pain
me, I'm not touching you.
- Sorry, I didn't
mean to joke about.
- About us sleeping
in the same bed?
Don't worry, I'm a funny whore.
I mean, at least one
with a sense of humor.
Not like stand up, you
know, I prefer laying down.
All right, you are a bank
robber with no sense of humor.
- I'm not a robber.
- Right, right, right, lookout.
- This is stupid, guys
are stupid, they suck.
And I don't know why
I listen to them.
- You know, they do suck
and not like a sex joke.
I mean guys, they all suck.
It's just a fact.
- Yeah, I guess so.
Did he see that?
- What?
- Something just
past our window.
- Maybe it was Lakes.
- What even is up
with her name, Lakes?
- Do you want me
to go check it out?
- What if that
crazy guy is right
that there is some serial
killer in the woods?
- You don't believe
that, do you?
They caught your
cousin's killer, right?
- Yeah, I guess so.
- I'll go check it out.
- Okay.
Be careful.
- I'll be fine.
I didn't find any crazed killer.
- Not even a peeper.
- Oh, I definitely wouldn't
wanna meet a peeper
who lives out here?
I prefer my peepers
to live in the city.
- Thanks.
I can probably sleep now.
What?
There's something
you're not telling me.
- No, it's nothing.
- No, tell me.
- I thought I saw something.
- What?
- Bigfoot.
I mean, I probably
imagined it, right?
- Did you see it for long?
- Just a second.
- Was it dark?
- Very dark.
- Trust me, you
didn't see Bigfoot.
I hope.
- Time we get some sleep.
What?
- What if we need to,
you know, use a bathroom?
- Look around, the
bathroom surrounds you.
- But what about number two?
- You can do it
anywhere, any number.
- This just keeps
getting worse and worse.
- Just don't do
it near the tents.
- Okay, there's
definitely someone here.
- Okay, let's both
look this time.
- Bad feeling about this.
- Hello there.
- God, what are you doing?
- Joe.
- What the hell, Joe?
- I just needed to warn ya.
- You already did that.
15 years ago, some killer
ran around the woods.
We get it.
- I didn't get a chance
to tell you though.
He's back.
He's back here again,
the last few years,
killing a bunch of
people out here.
- What do you mean?
- He's been killing
kids and sheriffs too.
- What you doing?
- Oh, the best thing to do
is split up and go back home.
- That's a horrible idea.
- Okay, I'm gonna go this
way, you go that way.
- Please, I'm an.
- What the fuck is going on?
What?
- So you can see, he's
back and he's killing.
He's doing his killing
again and again.
- Joe, we are leaving
tomorrow, okay.
As soon as our leader gets
someone to pick us up.
- You don't have a way
out of here, do you?
- Usually I just walk down
to town when I need to.
But most of the time I live
right here in these woods.
- Well, we are
walking out tomorrow.
So thank you for your stories.
But we need to get
some sleep now.
We promise we'll leave as
soon as it's light out.
- Good to hear that.
Gratified that my stories
might have swayed you,
if they've done that.
- Okay, goodnight.
- Wait, if you see someone,
can you tell them to call for
help, let 'em know we're here.
- I'll be seeing no one tonight.
- Wait, wait, wait.
Do you happen to own
a Bigfoot costume?
- Afraid not.
Anything else?
- Nope.
Bye.
- I'm really tired.
- I know, I think we should
be able to sleep now.
God, I just hope he doesn't
bother Lakes of Marilyn.
- Lakes, no.
- Oh not again.
- The crazy old guy was right,
there's a killer in the woods.
He hacked up Lakes,
it was awful.
- We need to lock
ourselves in here.
Go, go, go, go.
- There's no lock on the door.
- Do you really think
it's the best idea
to lock ourselves in here?
Shouldn't we make a run for it?
- A run for what?
- We can't get far with
these ankle monitors on.
- And it's dark out, we
don't even know where to go.
- I hope Melinda's
able to call for help.
I mean, we're supposed to
get picked up tomorrow.
- Okay, this is our best chance.
We keep safe in here and
maybe get picked up tomorrow.
- I wonder if Topper
really got away
or if she got, you know.
- They say that
you're my brother,
but I don't know
I have a brother.
- I don't understand.
- I don't understand either.
I only know what
your mind tells me.
- What does it tell you?
- Our parents were
horrible to you.
Locked you up, beat you.
But I was abandoned,
raised by others.
So I don't know
I have a brother.
- It's good that they
left you for others.
Do you love me?
- I don't know.
I've never met you.
- Our father,
he knew where you lived.
He had photos.
He followed you.
But he never hurt you.
- Freddy was busy last night.
- I saw the footage.
Seems like some pretty
high profile kills,
social worker,
corrections officer.
- We should get him pretty soon.
I think we'll be able to study
him more successfully now.
- He stimulated, his
DNA will be active.
- Let's give him 24 hours more,
finish what he
started, no witnesses.
We'll get him first
thing tomorrow morning.
I think
we should stay here
until someone comes for us.
- We don't know if
someone will come for us.
I mean maybe Melinda, maybe
something happened to her
before we could make the call.
- That psycho
definitely killed her.
- Well, if we try to
get away, he'll kill us.
You didn't see what I saw.
- Do you think this door
will hold or I mean,
he won't get
through the windows?
- So it's a plan, Einstein.
- We go near the tent.
I'll make a distraction, while
you two hide behind a tent.
- It's three against one.
- Yeah.
- You want us to
fight this freak?
- You can surprise him.
Hit him with a rock or a stick
and then I'll grab the ax and
I'll just kill the asshole.
- You're crazy.
- What, you have a
better plan, say it now.
- I'm in, I'll try it.
If he's really the one
who killed my cousin,
I owe it to her.
He's going down.
- Come on, Marilyn, we need you.
- Fine, let's try it.
- Hey.
Do you like my dance?
I can sing too.
- Go, go.
Is he dead?
It looks like it.
Maybe you
should kick him again.
- It worked.
You plan worked.
- Okay now we walk so
that our alarms go off.
- I just wanna say that, well,
I've always had things
handed to me in life
and it wasn't until
I met the two of you
that I realized what
is important in life
and that's pulling together.
- We need a better plan.
- What?
We can't get away with
these stupid bracelets on.
- Then help me get mine off.
- Stop, we'll get
shocked in the process.
- Then keep going
until it's off.
And when that's out, we
can run for our life.
Get it out, get out.
- Cassie, Cassie.
Cassie, wake up.
At least it's off.
You have to make a run for it.
Go that way, go, go, go.
- You need to come too.
- I don't have time to
take my bracelet off.
You get help and
come back for me.
Go, go now, go.
No, no, no, please stop, no.
No, no, no.
Come on, come on, come on.
No, no, no, please
no, please no.
Only one left,
then no more witnesses.
- When do you
wanna retrieve him?
- We can do that any time.
I'm sure he'll be done
by the time we arrive.
- I see that the final living
subject is Cassie Johnson.
She was a prostitute.
She might be very resourceful.
Perhaps we should wait until
he's finished with her.
- Do you have a fondness
for whores, Dr. Sanders?
- Why do you ask that?
Now I didn't say
I wanna meet her,
I said we should wait
until she's dead.
- Is that how you
like your whores?
You like them when they're dead.
That's how you like
to play with them.
- That is completely
inappropriate, Dr. Trask.
- Do strong women
threaten you Dr. Sanders?
Is that why you prefer
them to be dead?
- I don't like this
line of inquiry at all.
- You need to relax Dr. Sanders.
We've known each
other for a long time.
You need to have some fun.
We can go get 'em right now,
I'll make sure the whore
doesn't bother you.
I'll see to it personally.
Jones prepare the van
and Smith come in now,
I know you're right
outside the door.
Smith, I'll be accompanying
you to the woods, all right.
- Yes, Dr. Trask.
- You know, I like that
you chose the name Smith.
It's not your real
name, I know that.
It shows me though that
you're a man of simple means.
Am I right?
- Dr. Trask, this is
making me uncomfortable.
- She does that to everybody.
- Do you like my legs, Smith?
- I don't know,
I guess so, yeah.
- Is that why you position
yourself right outside the door?
- Oh, no, no, no Doctor.
- Then are you a spy,
listening to our experiments,
reporting back to someone?
- No Dr. Trask.
- Then why do you wait
right outside the door?
Because Jones doesn't do it.
It has to be about
my legs, come on.
- Oh, okay, I like your legs.
I mean, I like you, you're
attractive Dr. Trask, I'm sorry.
- You are very, very sorry.
Now go get the van ready.
- Yes, Dr. Trask.
- For Freddy.
- I don't usually take
clients this early.
- Do you know who I am?
- I wouldn't be
much of a psychic
if I didn't know who you are.
I know your face,
Melinda, Belinda.
- I'm not like my
sister, you can't con me.
- So then why are you here?
- If you're psychic,
you know why I'm here.
- Is it to gimme your
cousin Tiffany's number?
She's a real hoochie coochie.
- Oh, what a waste of time.
- Sit.
I know you're worried
about your sister.
Believe it or not,
she's my friend too.
- She had a lot of faith in you.
- And you don't have faith
in much of anything, do you?
Except your sister.
- So what do I do?
- You need to go find her fast.
- Okay, I will.
- You haven't heard from her?
- No, her signal's
getting weaker.
- Do I owe you something?
- I'll settle for your cousin
Tiffany's phone number.
- Why?
- Well, she's cute and the
true reason I cannot say.
- Okay, I'll text
you her number.
I'm worried about Melinda.
She said she'd call at 9:00
a.m. every morning to check in.
- Have you tried calling her?
- Yes, no response.
- I tried calling her too,
but maybe she doesn't have
a reception where she's at.
- I have a bad feeling.
- Have you been speaking to
your sister's so-called psychic?
- I don't believe
in that crap either.
Something's telling
me something is wrong.
- So you haven't gone
to see her psychic.
- I did.
Come on, just tell me
where the rah, rah, get
outta jail free group is
and I'll go check
them out myself.
- Okay, well that
wouldn't be appropriate.
And they don't get
outta jail free,
okay, one year off
their sentence.
- Melinda can make us believe
in anything, can't she?
- She gives you hope when
there just isn't any.
- Come on, doesn't
your gut tell you
that something went wrong?
Her and one other officer
against four criminals.
- Nonviolent criminals.
- I'm not leaving
until you do something.
- You're just as
stubborn as she is.
Fine, I'll call the park ranger
to go check things out.
- Park Ranger Amanda
Briggs, identify yourself.
- I'm so glad to see you.
I need to help everyone is dead.
- Who's dead?
Identify yourself.
- I couldn't stop
him, he's a psycho.
- You need to relax
and identify yourself.
- How do you want me to relax,
if you're pointing a
taser at me and a killer
could come out in
literally any minute.
- Sit on the ground now
and put your hands
behind your back.
- Why won't you listen to me.
- Now.
Now, what's your name?
- Cassie Johnson.
I'm part of that test group.
- The one with the prisoners,
camping for the week.
- Yes.
Melinda was our leader
and one of us got away or
who knows, maybe got killed.
And then Melinda went
to call for help.
She couldn't give
reception at the camp.
- Did you hear from
Melinda after she left?
- No, some crazy guys
showed up in a mask
and he killed Lakes and
then he killed Marilyn
and probably killed Jenna too.
- Was that the rest
of the prisoners?
- Everyone got killed.
And we need to get outta
here before he finds us.
- Is that blood on your shoe?
- I hit him with an ax.
- Did you kill him?
- No.
He got up and killed
Marilyn right after,
and then he followed
us to the camp
and my guess is, killed
Jenna there as well.
- I'll call for backup.
Hi Judge Bias, I'm
near the campsite now.
- Did she find Melinda?
- No, just someone
named Cassie Johnson.
- She's one of the subjects.
Does she know where Melinda is?
- She says that when one of
the prisoners tried to escape,
that Melinda went
to call for help.
They don't get cell
reception near of the camp.
And Judge, the prisoner
says that someone
has tried to kill everyone else.
- Jesus.
Well go check it out.
- I was just about
to call for backup.
- I'll call for your backup.
Go investigate the
camp, don't wait.
- But Judge, that's
not procedure.
- If Melinda is in danger,
she needs to be found, go now.
- But Ma'am.
- You owe me a
favor, do you not?
- If Melinda's in
there, I'll find her.
- What are you doing?
- Show me the bodies.
- But we can't go back there.
- I could always tase you in
the leg and go look myself.
- Can you uncuff me at least?
- Just keep walking.
- No, I can't walk with
my hands behind my back.
- Let 'em in front.
- No, come on.
- Do it.
- Are you into
bondage, Ranger Ricks?
I'll let you do anything,
if you let my hands go free.
- Just keep walking.
- Ah, seriously, I can't
walk with these handcuffs on.
Like, have you ever tried it?
- Get up.
- No, I'm staying down here
unless you wanna
explain why you tased
an unarmed handcuffed hooker.
- Just remember,
I have a weapon.
No shenanigans.
- Shenanigans wow.
It's like you read too
many 1960s comic books.
This is where Lakes was.
- No sign of a struggle
here, no sign of a death.
- Well, I didn't see what
happened to Lakes here.
Marilyn just told us
that she saw her killed.
- What did you actually
witness yourself?
- I saw him kill Marilyn,
it was right here
where we're standing.
- How was she killed?
- It was an ax.
- The same one you used on him?
- Yes, I guess I
must have set it down
after we thought he was dead.
- Does look like a body might
have been dragged from here.
- Yeah, he dragged
the bodies away and,
God he doesn't pleasure
himself with the bodies,
that's disgusting.
- Some killers are cannibals.
- Oh, oh that's worse.
- You said there
was another killing.
Where did that happen?
- Probably at the cabin.
- Show me.
- Okay, be ready, in
case he's in here.
- Just walk in, I
know what I'm doing.
- He must have taken
all the bodies away.
- Would you like to
confess anything?
- Come on, just think about it.
Do I look like someone
who would hurt anyone?
- What's down the hall?
- The bedroom.
- Show me.
- Go look at it
yourself, Ranger Rick.
- Stop calling me that.
Go.
- Jesus.
Fine.
- Put your hands
behind your back.
- Oh, come, you don't
think I did this,
do you?
- Now.
- This is Ranger Briggs,
I found the body of Melinda
Day, she's been murdered.
I'm at the Cabin
at Stones Creek.
I have one suspect in custody.
- Come in.
Have a seat.
- It's bad news, isn't it?
- I'm afraid so.
- Just say it, Melinda's
dead, isn't she?
- She was murdered.
- Why'd you ever let them
try that fucking experiment?
- I'm so sorry.
- You know it's painful.
I should never let her try it.
- No, it's not your
fault, Belinda.
Look, it was her program, okay.
It was her passion,
she wanted to do this.
You know her, you know
what she was about.
- What happened?
- I don't really know right now.
It looks like one
of the subjects.
- You mean one of the prisoners?
- One of the prisoners escaped,
Melinda went to
go find reception.
One of the other prisoners
got their ankle monitor off
and killed some of
the other prisoners.
- And Melinda?
- Apparently so.
- So what happens
to the prisoner now?
- I'm not quite sure.
She was a non-violent
prisoner and she just snapped.
- So insanity, plea?
- Possibly.
But I just think there's
more to this story
than we know right now.
- Freddy.
Where are you at, Freddy boy?
Are you out here, Freddy?
Looking high and
low for you today.
- Think we gave him enough, Doc?
- Yeah, that's enough
to put out an elephant.
- What if it's not enough?
- You worry too much, Smith.
- Time to go home, Freddy.
- You can leave us.
Hello Cassie.
I'm judge Sandy Bias.
- And I'm the queen of England.
- I'm hoping that you'll tell
me what happened at the camp.
- I already told everyone,
who wouldn't listen.
Freddie Palmer the psycho,
killed everyone, except for me.
The only one who got away.
- They found Melinda's body,
and she was a friend of mine.
- Yeah, I don't know what he
did with the other bodies.
- Your defense attorney
is a public defender
whose case rests on
convincing a jury
that Lakes was in on it,
that she freed the prisoners
and one of them killed Melinda.
But that's just speculation.
- Yeah, I'm not going
to lie about that story.
I already told the PD that.
It was Freddy Palmer.
- Freddy Palmer is a myth.
It's like Bigfoot.
You're gonna argue that
Bigfoot killed everyone?
- Well, if Bigfoot did
it, then yes, I would.
In fact, I actually
thought I saw Bigfoot
at one point near the cabin.
- Do you know how
crazy that sounds?
- Well, it wasn't Bigfoot okay.
It was Freddy Palmer
who did the killing.
Just forget about Bigfoot, God.
- The murder weapon was found.
The ax that killed Melinda
has your DNA on it.
- Yeah, I used the
ax to kill Freddy.
- Then where's Freddy's body?
- He didn't die, okay.
We just thought I killed him.
- So you imagined it?
- I know what you're
trying to do, all right.
And it won't work.
- I'm just trying
to get to the truth.
I have a hard time believing
that you killed
everyone by yourself
and hid all the bodies so
well that they can't be found.
- Right, and no jury
will believe that.
- I don't believe
you killed Melinda.
Her blood was found on you.
- Yeah, she fell on me.
Ranger Rick saw that.
- Your DNA is on
the murder weapon.
Melinda's blood is on
you and you had a motive.
So why don't you
let me help you.
- I am done talking
to you, okay,
you can talk to my
crappy public defender
if you got anything else to say.
- I think he needs another
sedative, Dr. Sanders.
And then we'll extract the
uric purines from his liver.
- No.
- Freddy speaks.
Did you know he could speak?
- I did not.
- Freddy, do you
have anything to say
before we gather this
generous donation,
your body for the
advancement of science?
- Let me go or I'll
kill you slowly.
- Sedative, please.
There, there, get a
good sleep now, Freddy.
- I'll kill you,
I'll make it hurt.
- Do you enjoy killing Freddy?
What's happening here is
your redemption, ours too,
for all the terrible
things we've done.
But the world will
be a better place
with your blood and DNA.
- If I sleep, even for a
moment, I'll wake up stronger.
And snap your neck.
- Now Dr. Trask?
- One moment.
Sweet dreams dark prince.
You may continue.
Still rolling.
Five minutes left
and action.
- Go.
- Fine, Jesus.
Sorry
I didn't mean to.
I'm still rolling.
Okay I got it.
Were you
making faces at her?
Yeah, inside joke.
- What about you Cassie?
- Cassie and Jenna will
spend the night in the tent.
Marilyn and I.
Oh.
- Yeah.
- Sorry.
- I'm sorry.
- I was gonna get excited,
but then I'm like no it's not.
- Should I just take it
from my line?
- Yeah, take.
- Would we?
448,
440,
take one.
Are you rolling?
I'm rolling.
- Wait, can we?
That was so fast.
- Yeah, we weren't, hold
on, I was not ready.
Do the second kick.
- Woo.
- Oh.
Oops.
- Try it again.
Now one more.
- Did it move?
Oh, oh, oh, oh.
Oh, I
guess it's a butterfly.
- It's 'cause it's long one.
