Nakee 2 (2018) - full transcript
A new detective was sent to investigate unusual events in a rural village in the north-east of Thailand which was believed to be involved with the mythical giant snake called Nakee.
woman do you believe
in the legend of Naga?
Our story begins with the 1,000-year war
between the Garudas and Nagas.
It was a war to end all wars.
AS Nakee, a female Naga,
was about to be killed,
a brave man called Chaiyasingk
saved her life.
He fought and chased oflthe Garudas.
This was the start 0fthe love
between a human and a Naga.
Nakee became pregnant with his Child.
She had to hide it,
so as not to be punished,
so she prayed for her child
to be born as a white eel.
At that time, there was a severe drought.
The royal soothsayer said
that the white eel was a curse.
soft chanting
Grandma, tell me
the story of Nakee again, please.
Aren't you bored of hearing it?
Of course not. Please tell it again.
Love is a powerful force.
It can happen at any time.
The legend of the love
between a human and a Naga
was a miracle in itself.
They swore to love each other
in every life thereafter.
One thousand years later,
Chaiyasingh was reborn
as an archeology student named Tosapol.
Nakee also found a way to be reborn
in the body of Kamkaew.
She was born
on the day of a solar eclipse.
But their love was doomed from the start.
The bad karma from her past life
came back to haunt her.
Her mother was killed before her eyes.
So Nakee struck back in anger.
She destroyed the Village
and killed everyone.
She was punished for her actions.
And ordered to keep vows
and meditate for 1,000 years.
If she broke her vows and did harm again,
her punishment would be
1,000 times more severe.
I pray for Nakee,
to find her true love.
both Please bless our fields.
Please bless our crop this year.
Protect it from floods and pests.
May our fields be bountiful.
After harvest,
keep us all healthy and strong.

I don't know What it was.
It was pitch black
and it walked into the jungle.
Then it removed its head.
Flares of light.
I'm sure it's a Krasue.
Its sarong was ripped off.
It was a Krahang. I saw it flying.
Krasue! I saw it with my own eyes.
Both of you, please calm down.
Why didn't it kill you both?
Krasue or Krahang, get it straight.
Idiots!
officer Sarge... Take over.
Have a seat.
Baby-face...
What do you want?
Hi, officer.
Yes. What is it?
Do you have a problem?
What?
Look at me.
-Hey!
-Sarge...
What? Stop poking me.
Sarge.
officer Oh...
Just shoot me.
I'm Sergeant Somsak Supmana.
Welcome, Inspector Pongprab Padungthai.
You arrived earlier than expected.
I apologize.
Sergeant Manas Rungrueang
-rep0rting, sir.
-At ease.
I can see what happened.
What is this?
The Villagers believe in these ghosts.
-See this paper?
-Mmm-hmm.
It's a pact between Krasue and Krahang.
They collided in mid-air.
And couldn't resolve themselves.
So What did you do?
I suggested the Krahang
place a CD over its butt.
-So they wouldn't accidentally collide.
-Huh.
Isn't that bright of me?
"Bright"?
"Bright" means smart.
Smart, I see.
What else do the locals believe?
all exclaiming Lots...
The locals believe in Nakee.
Pardon my dialect.
It's okay. Go ahead.
I need to learn it.
Ah, okay, I'll continue, then.
Nakee is very sacred,
especially in matters of the heart.
See those two?
This couple,
the husband had an affair,
so the Wife prayed to Nakee.
Look at them now, like two lovebirds.
They're inseparable.
woman Young man!
Would you like to pray to Nakee?
Thank you, maybe later.
Any suffering you have, Nakee can help.
The Inspector just transferred here.
Please take care of me.
Handsome, isn't he?
chuckles
melodic music playing
Damn you, Nakee!
exclaiming
You lied to me.
You betrayed me!
Mister, you're drunk.
Go home.
Leave me alone.
groaning
Let me go!
I've got it.
Somsak Stop it, Kamjan!
Kamj an!
Kamj an raving maniacally

You must think you're so powerful
to block my piss.
Fine, I won't pee.

thunderclap
dramatic instrumental music
officer Clear the way.
Move aside.
The dead man is Kamjan.
He must have died at dawn.
It's Kamjan.
Kamj an.
Remember him? The man at the shrine.
Judging from the wounds,
he must have been killed
by a large animal.
Or a Naga. Ooh...
You work at the shrine?
I sell flowers with my grandma.
Did you argue with Kamjan before?
No, I didn't.
This was the first time.
He cursed the goddess.
All I did was stop him.
You did more than that. You fought.
He cursed the goddess. I told him to stop.
Is that a crime?
Were you angered
by his curses?
Sure, I was.
All the locals worship the goddess.
He insulted her.
So you think that Kamj an's death
is due to the goddess? Hmm?
The locals
really believe in Nagas.
Believe in Nagas?
I'm done. You can go.
I'm not finished talking.
But I am. You can go. No more questions.
What's with the locals?
Miss, can I ask you something?
You grew up here?
I'd like to apologize for my language
at the station.
Kamjan ran an illegal lotto--
If you think that the killer
played the lottery,
you can arrest everyone.
The whole Village plays the lottery.

Who was that?
Wait, Miss!
I still insist
it was a Naga that killed him.
officer The report from
the Village headman.
Inspector, we investigated
who lost the most in the lottery.
It was a man named Korn.
We did a thorough check.
You have a photo?
-Of the Naga?
-Of Korn.

Somsak Over here, Inspector.
This is his photo.
Look at his record.
He's done time,

Only a Naga could have killed this way.

laughs Great job!
Somsak Get out of the truck.
Open the cage.
Pongprab See, Sarge?
Don't forget to send the Naga
t0 the county jail.
I caught him. Let's celebrate.
His ego gets bigger and bigger.
What did you say?
I said,
you're a really big hero.
I'm not a hero.
I kept my Wits.
Wits. Understand?
There's your Naga. Locked in the cage.
Anything the matter?
Nothing, Grandma.
man Hello?
Pongprab Are you okay?
Thank you.
I saw you look at him, so I caught him.
I have to thank you, too,
for saving me and Grandma.
My subordinates really believe
it was done by a Naga.
What Naga? It's finished.
I don't think it's finished.
What do you mean?
Nothing.

Somsak I tried. There was no signal.
Open the door, please.
What is it, huh?
Krasue ate a chicken?
Or a Naga crushed a car?
Not the first one.
But your second guess is right.
Don't be silly. G0 to sleep.
The Naga really came.
See for yourself.
Hurry up and get dressed. I'll wait.
Okay?
See for yourself.
Somsak The tracks go on forever.
I'm not lying... Ooh.
See? It's got to be a Naga.
HOW could a human do this much damage?
mysterious music playing
Somsak The tracks go into the forest.
They end suddenly.
Manas I've never seen
anything this strange before.
Nakee has attacked again.
What should we do?
Dear God.
Don't let it be what I think it is.
doctorThe body has large bite marks.
It was crushed with great force.
The organsforced out.
We've sent a sample for lab analysis.
The result Will take a While.
Okay, thank you.
Somsak I'm worried
about the Villagers' safety.
Who will be the next Victim?
Want an amulet?
Stop joking around.
No joke. You should worry about yourself.
I worry about him.
They say the next Victim will be a cop.
Short, balding, bug-eyed, flat nose.
Thick lips and a goatee.
One of them looks like that?
-Yes.
-Who?
You.
Inspector, I take back my amulet.
I need it more than you.
I almost got myself killed.
What would my wife and kids do?

You might be able to catch one
if I help you.
in English You be careful.
in Thai You, too, Vej.
Watch yourself.
Sroi Why did I see
those dead bodies in my dream?
Like they say, eat a lot, dream a lot.
A dream is just a dream.
They're not always true.
Grandma.
Yes?
Nakee is the killer, right?
man 1 Who's that?
Why is she out so late at night?
She really looks familiar.
It looks like Sroi.
man 2 Right.
Never mind her. It's not our business.
Let's get another drink.

It's really her.
What's she doing?

it's your fault.
Let me apologize on everyone’s behalf
for causing a nuisance.
It's okay, Headman.

roaring in distance
Your holiness.
I'm sorry.

That's why you believe she did this?
Pongprab scoffs
N0.
I don't.

You didn't kill them.
And if I believe it was Nakee,

Why did she do it?
What for?
Revenge?
Wrath?

She was angry at the Whole Village
because they killed her mother

her true love.
That's why you believe she did this?
Pongprab scoffs
N0.
I don't.
Then who do you think did it?
