Seekers (2016) - full transcript

I gave the movie a try because the premise sounded interesting and I was utterly disappointed by the delivery. The acting can be called wooden at best, almost the first complete hour of the movie is just boring and unfocused and even when it comes to the more horror-themed elements, the movie just doesn't work. The special effects are hilariously bad, but to the movies credit I have to say at least the movie hasn't been overloaded with CGI effects. Almost every effect was practical and that is the only positive thing I can say about this movie.The characters are unlikeable jerks most of the time, and I don't see any of them having any real personalities, which for me is the most movie-breaking thing that can happen.All in all, seekers doesn't stand out in any way.

- Mom. Dad.

If you see this, I may already be dead.

I love you...

- Does this camera have to
run all the time?

Isn't it enough that we
start filming tomorrow?

I feel so watched!

- You'll get used to the cameras.

We need it all for our documentary.

- You sure she's working today?

- Yeah, but I don't think
it's a good idea to bother her.

- Come on.
It's a side job.



We just wanna tell her
about our trip tomorrow.

We're here.

- Does the camera have to
run all the time?

- Ha ha.

- Honey, come on.

- Okay, I'm coming.

- You're the best.

- I'll take the train!

- Yeah.
You lazy sack!

Bye!

You're doing a great job!

Nee mahhh!

Mahhh!

She doesn't answer me.



Mahhh!

I'm probably speaking the wrong language.

Moo!

She doesn't understand that either.

- There she is.

- Boo!

- What's with the camera?

- That's Martin.

He's coming on our our trip.

We have several cameras.

We're documenting and filming everything.

- Sorry, I couldn't talk them out of it.

- Oh man.

Thanks for asking me.

- Come on, it'll be fun.

- It's gonna be great.

- Tomorrow morning at nine
we go as planned...

We'll meet at the station.

Alin checked the train schedule...

And tonight we'll
go through everything again.

- It is getting good!

- Yeah...

I believe you.

- Okay.

- Good, let's go.

- Hey, you stupid cow.

- Say a few words to our viewers.

- Well, I'm Mike...

And this is my friend Alin.

She's in her sixth semester studying law.

- Nobody wants to know that.

- Okay, who who else do we have?

There's Sarah, the friendly park worker.

George. He's riding
right behind us.

Hi George.

- Hey!

- Alright?

And the silent man
behind the camera is Martin.

- Martin

- Martin is coming with us,
and filming everything.

- We are so-called "geocachers".

For people who don't know what
Geocaching is, I'll explain it...

Geocaching is a modern
form of a treasure hunt...

Or a scavenger hunt.

You get coordinates from the Internet...

And um, you enter the
coordinates in a GPS tracker.

And, someone hides something
at the coordinates.

And when you find the coordinates,
you get the treasure.

And we call them "caches".

Was that understandable?

- Reasonably.

Perhaps you should add that there
are different types of geocaches.

You can document finds, for example,
entered them into a logbook.

Sometimes a cache contains swap items.

You take something out of the cache
and swap in something you own.

Um, the most important thing is that
you can't get caught finding a cache...

by normal people or passers-by.

Hundreds of thousands of people
worldwide share our hobby.

And... Where are we going
this time, dear Ali?

- This time we're going to Poland.

In the northern Giant Mountains.

We're totally well equipped...

We have a map.

We have GPS receivers.

We are very curious about what to expect.

We're hanging!

- Isn't this cool?

Oh, I'm hanging!

- Are you alright?

- Turn off the camera.

- that was right after you got drunk.

- Josh, do you need anything?

- Mom, I have everything.
I don't need anything.

- Okay.

- So...

Everyone.

Listen.

I checked everything again.

We're well prepared.

I've got everything listed here.

- Um hmm.
- Good.

- Please don't forget to pack warm things.

It's getting really cold.

- Nothing with cut-out

- No.

- Everyone please smile.

For a before and after picture.

- Come into my arms!

- Well, do you have everything?

There's no turning back.

- Everything's here.

- Nice.

- No idea, he'll make it.

- Where is he?

Where? Ah.

- Poor...

- That's typical.

- Mike!

- George.

- Run!

- Really?

Well, George, you'll probably
have to take the car.

- That's so typical.

- Really. Man!

- Come in my dear.

- Well, shit.

- So, make yourself comfortable.

- Hey, hey!

- George, What do you expect
from this trip?

- What do I expect?

Definitely and exciting trip

untouched nature

And yes, I expect to find
lots of treasure.

- We finally arrived.

We're looking for somewhere cheap to
stay, then we start tomorrow morning.

Hey! Shit.

- We must be over here.

- It's really desolate.
I can't find a soul.

- Hey guys.
We found a boarding house.

- Cool. Where?

- Not far.

- Okay, come on.
Final sprint!

- Look, chickens.

- How did you sleep last night?

- I had a pretty shitty night.

I didn't close my eyes.

It wasn't a real boarding house.

I had to sleep in the same room
as the landlady's son.

- For someone who didn't close their
eyes, you snored pretty loudly.

- Now we have a long walk
through the forest.

Also, I'm freezing my ass off.

- Hey Georgie.

- Men are so sensitive.

- That's true too.

- I see you've made friends
with the camera.

- Slowly but surely.

- I'm so hungry.

- I hear you.

- Careful.
A car's coming.

- He's pulling over!

What's he doing?

- Hey, should we look inside?

- No. I really don't want
to know what it is.

- Really?
- No.

Come on.
Let's go.

- What does this remind you of, honey?

- Bondage?

I'm joking, of course.

Wow. Martin, look at
that tree.

Look at that tree.

- Wow, that's cool. Imagine hiding
caches up there.

- You would have to climb up there.

So, we are about to...

We're off right now...

You're not filming yet, are you?

No.

- Okay

We are about to find our first cache.

So, our first treasure on this trip.

Um, according to our GPS, It should
be hidden somewhere nearby.

I hope we find it.

- Bring the camera over here.

- Sure. Of course.

- My lady.

- Thank you.

- It must be somewhere in this clearing.

It's not that precise.

- So, we're looking for something
that' doesn't belong here.

Something that's not natural.

- That's difficult.

- Wait, there might
be something over there.

- Yeah, that doesn't look
like it belongs, right?

- Sarah.

You don't see anything, right?

- Do you see something?

Ha-ha! Damn!

Our first!

- Come on, open it.

- Tadaa!

Log book.

- Rosary

- That's odd.

- Show me.
It's beautiful.

Can I keep it?

Sure... But you have to write
something personal about yourself.

- Those are the rules.

- What's that?

- My lucky charm.
I've had it since communion.

But, I don't know who gave it to me.

- Beautiful

I'll just put it in here.

- And? Does it fit me?

- Yes!
- Show me.

- Everybody, gather around.

Cache photo!

- Award winning photo!

- Everyone smile.

- Oh wait, wait. Sarah!

- Stand closer together.
Everyone smile.

Three, two, one...

Cache!

Cache!

- I can't go any further.
My feet hurt.

- Maybe we should stop for today
and build our tents.

What do you think?

- Yeah. I'm in
for that.

- For me, it's getting too dark.

Should we stop here?

- What have you got there?

- Pasta.

- Tell me, does it bother you that
you're never in the picture?

Most of the time it's only us.

- Not at all.

I'd rather be behind the camera.

I feel uncomfortable in front of her.

Oh yes. Anyway,
I'll turn the camera off.

Sorry.

- Well, Geordie, is the
documentary going well?

- Yes.

I've got everything.

The next cache is going to be...

fun, but exhausting.

Do you want to see?

- Ah Mike. Do we have
to do this now?

This looks strange, don't you think?

- Are you worried about your reputation?

- Whatever.

Where's Martin?

- No idea. He went
outside to do something.

- Good morning.

- Good morning sweetheart.

You slept really well.

- Yeah.

- Morning.

- Does anyone know where my backpack is?

It's missing.

- I don't have it.
It must be somewhere.

- I put it in our tent.
It's gone.

- Here's your backpack.

You probably parked it here.

Thank God.
I thought it was gone.

- Whoa!
- Wow

- Mike...

I'm your mother!

- I'm your mother!

- Look at this.
It's so beautiful.

- Oh, I didn't shoot this.

- Look over there!

Isn't that cool!

- Hey Martin.
Can I have the camera?

I have to film that.

- You're good with the camera.

- Can you focus this?

Thank you.

- I wonder where the cache is hidden.

- Me too.

- I hope we don't have to climb.

- Hey Martin, let me know
if I need to take the camera.

- And what do you have to say?

- Super nice.
Madness.

- Let's keep moving.

- Mike. Hey.

- I can't.
I have to film.

That was good.

- Come on.

- Unfortunately, we've had the
first casualty on our trip.

- Let me see.

- It's not that bad.
I broke a nail.

It works.

- Yes? Good?

Let's go.

ATTENTION!

- Hey guys.
Come here.

- Do you think that's it?

- We'll see very shortly.

Definitely an original hiding place.

- Are you ready?

- Hello there.

- Our second cache!

- Nothing.

- Well, great.

- That was worth it.

- Such Crap.

- Pity.

- Let the container down again.

- Well, onto the next cache, right?

- We're now on our way to our last cache.

We don't have much information.

We only know that it's a lost place.

- What isn't a lost place?

- A lost place can be almost anything.

Like an old house, an
abandoned factory, a ruin.

But such caches are really hard to find.

Martin!

- When will we get there?

- Not much further.
Keep up.

- So, as you can see,
the mood here is quite heated...

because the destination
is further than expected.

- Oh, get away from me.

- I think we're lost.

We were already here.

- This can't be.

- I'm sure.
I recognize this place.

- Everything looks the same.

Give it to me.

- We should've arrived a long time ago.
I don't understand.

- Maybe the GPS device is broken
or the batteries are too weak.

- I checked everything this morning.

We have to go this way.
Come on. Trust me.

- I've found it. We're here.
This is the building.

- Oh, thank God.

- I can't walk another foot.
Honestly.

- A little creepy.

- Hammer.

- And you want to stay here?
Are you sure?

- First we have to find a way in.

- What?

Calm down.

You shouldn't film this.

- That was probably left by a hunter.

- Hey!

- There's no way I'm going in there.
I won't stay there.

- Hey Martin.
Come here.

I think I've found an entrance.

- Martin, look.

- You found a way in?

- We'll see in a moment.

And this is how we get in.

Give me the action cam.

- Just a second.

- Okay, let's do this.

Martin, I'll take the camera from you.

So, I think we should find a place
to make camp before we start exploring.

- Yeah. Good idea.

- Yeah. I think we should
split into two groups.

- Okay.

- The hotel check-in desk.

This is a desolate place for a hotel.

- Locked.

- Wow, we can each have our own room...

Or not.

- I don't think that's a good idea.
We should stick together.

- Alright.

- Insane.

How big is this place?

You can get lost.

- Indeed.

- This is quite the hotel.
We found the check-in desk.

- George and I believe that too.
The building is huge.

- How do we find the next cache?

This place has dozens of rooms,
and that's not counting the basement.

- This is cool. We have
the whole place to ourselves.

- We're gonna have to cuddle.
It's so cold.

- I think I can handle that.

- You're already cold?

- You've heard.

- Help me!

Ah, no no no.

- So we're starting to explore now.

We split into two groups

and Martin is with us as reinforcement.

So, let's go.

- Yeah.

- Eww.

- Eww.

- Eww.

- It's good we brought
enough food with us.

- How do we find the next cache?

- No clue.

- Let's keep going.

- Come.

- Looks like they had a swimming pool.

Too bad there's no water.

- Let's keep moving.
I'm scared.

- Come. Hey, come.

Boah!

We scare the shit out of you!

- Fucking idiots!

What's wrong with you!

- Oh, honey.

- Hey Sarah.

- Calm down.
- Calm down.

- Did you know about this?

Shit. We're going alone.
You can stay with these monkeys.

- Sweetheart.

Sarah, come on.
You didn't find it funny?

- I thought it was funny.

- I found if funny too.

- You too, Martin?

Women.

- Everything okay?

- Yeah, I think so.

- You know, I'm always here for you.

- I know.

- Idiots.

What is that?
Creepy.

- A graveyard.

- So many graves.

- Don't you think that's strange?

Out here in the middle of the forest?

It gives me goosebumps.

- Know what, I'll get the others.
They have to see this.

- Forget it. You're not
leaving me here alone.

- Yes. Yes.
Okay, okay, okay.

- That's impossible.
That's my lucky charm. Look.

I put it in the first cache.

It can't be the same.
It's a coincidence.

- Funny coincidence.

- Don't worry.

Pendants like that are made
in the millions in China.

Come on.
Let's go.

- What's he doing?

- He's installing some
cameras in the hallways.

- What good is that gonna do?

- Well, it can't hurt.
At least everything's covered.

- I'm gonna take a look in here.

- Eileen, come here.

- A girl lived here.

- Looks like it.

- There's something else.

The family was probably very religious.

What is it?

Can you read it?
You know a little Polish, right?

- "Grandma"

Terrible.

MOTHER... ME... FATHER

- She drew her family.

- Terrible.

What can drive a kid
to draw something like that?

- What happened to this family?

- Do you really want to know?

- Oh man, I don't want to
run into him in the dark.

- Me neither.

- And?

- Fuck, can you take the camera?

- Sure.

- Okay, Got it.

- Thanks

- Hello handsome.

Oh yeah.

- Shit.

- George.

Come here.

I found something.

Oh, look at that.
What went on here?

- That's really scary.

- We shouldn't tell the girls.
They'll insist on leaving.

- Definitely not.

I think we should stop for the day.

- Yeah.
You're right.

- Martin.

- Thank you.

- Sarah.

Is everything okay?

Come on, Sarah.

- You took it with you.

- Took what?

- We found a child's drawings.
They were very disturbing.

- Show me.

This is messed up.

- And we still haven't found the treasure.

Perhaps tomorrow.

- Let's hope.

- Hey wake up sunshine.

- Go away.
Leave me alone.

- Oh, that's good.
You're in a bad mood.

Sweetheart.

- Yeah?

- Sarah's acting funny.

Something's wrong.

- Oh, she's probably still
upset about yesterday.

Don't stress.

She'll come around.

- Okay.

- Mike.

Come here.

- What's up?

- Take a look.

I found something about this hotel.

There's an article about
the owners who used to live here.

- Okay.

- The parents of the family
were religious fanatics.

They believed their daughter
was possessed by a demon

and they tried to drive it out.

And, yeah...

They tortured her.

- Oh my God.

This explains the couches and straps
we found in the basement.

What happened next?

- The girl died.

They tortured her to death.

- Shit

What happened to her parents?

- Her parents killed themselves.

The bodies were found in their bed.

The hotel was closed since then.

- Shit.

- Should we tell the girls?

- Absolutely not.

I don't want them to worry about this.

We leave tomorrow anyway.
We keep this to ourselves.

- Okay.

- Hey, what do you have?

Find anything interesting?

- We were looking at yesterday's footage.

Yeah, there's some good footage.

- Can I see?

- Later. I have to
change the battery.

- Okay.

- I'll keep watching.

- So now it's around 10 PM.

And we decided to stop exploring.

This building is just too big.

A labyrinth.

To be honest...

I'll be glad to get out of
this horror hotel tomorrow.

- Whoa...

Shit.

- I can't find them.

- We have to find her.

- Alright. I suggest
forming two groups.

Ali comes with me and
Martin goes with George.

- Okay.
Let's go Martin.

- Okay. I'll look up there.

- That's really high.

- I'm coming down.

What was that?

- Be careful.

- Open the fucking door!

- Hey, that's not funny.

Open the door!

What'll we do now?

- Watch out for the camera.

- Sorry

What's this?

- Blood.

- Shit. Maybe
Sarah's hurt.

Sarah.

- I want to go home.

- Me too.

- When we find Sarah,
we leave tomorrow morning.

I don't want to be here anymore.

I'm scared shitless.

- I've had enough as well.

We should have left after
George found out about the hotel.

- Found out what?

- Some family that tortured
their daughter here...

- You're telling me this now?

Are you crazy?

- I'm sorry.

What was that?

Shit.

- Who's there?

- Be careful.

Okay. Let's go,
but carefully.

- What was that?

Last time I'm staying at a hotel.

Oh man.

Shit.

What the hell is that?

Sarah.

Sarah.

Sarah?

What's wrong?

Sarah?

Crap.

Go faster.

George.

George.

- Where's George?

- I thought he was behind me.

- What about Sarah?

- Sarah?

Sarah...
Changed somehow.

- What happened?

- I don't know.
She turned into a monster.

- Monster? Come on,
we have to find them now.

We're not leaving without her.

- Forget it.
- Martin, show me the way.

- I'm not going back there.
- Martin, please.

Please, show us where she was.

- Oh, shit.
What happened here?

- God.

- Guys, we have to find George.
He lost a lot of blood.

- This is Sarah's rosary.

That came from over there.

- George?

- Where are you?

- George.

- George.

Sarah.

What's that?

- No idea.

I think it came from there.

- Sarah?

What's happening to you?

Let me help you.

God.

Mom.

God.

Help. Help.

Oh God...
Oh God...

Help!

Help!

No!

Mike!

- Martin.

Martin.

- No!

- I'm so sorry.

I'm so sorry.

- You can't do anything about it.

This is all my fault.

I can't run anymore.

Please get to safety.

- I won't leave you here alone.

- Run away.

Please.

- Mike.

- Mike.

You can't leave me alone now.

Please.

Mom.

Dad.

- If you see this, I may already be dead.

I love you.

- There definitely seems
to be people here.

Look...

Here's a camera.

Why is this here?

Well, show me what you've got,
my movie star.

- Good?

- A little sexy please.

- What was that?

- No idea.
