Short filmTranscript
00:00that day i had no idea what kind of hell we were heading into we humans thinking we were so smart
00:16ended up unleashing our own worst nightmares at the beginning it was all about making the world
00:21but before we knew it things spun out of control mistakes were made and
00:29well you've seen how it all went down from there
00:32oh my god what's going on
00:59oh
01:02are you leaving
01:29what's wrong
01:32nothing
01:33just if we could pretend that didn't happen that would be great
01:36did i do something wrong
01:38i'll see ya
01:41see ya
01:42you better have a really good excuse for calling me not stop on a weekend
01:54i know but it's up to you to decide whether this is a serious incident or just some crazy prank
02:01i thought you might want to come down and see this
02:04if you're not saying have you seen this
02:07you may not have some light
02:09you're going to be careful
02:10you need to know what's happening
02:11you need to know what's happening
02:24Homeowners have been deceased for almost two years, and the house has been vacant ever since.
02:44Last night, a passerby called the police saying they heard some creepy banging and screaming
02:49coming from inside the house.
02:50When the police got here, they found the back door wide open, like busted out from the inside.
02:55When you got here, there's nothing to do with this.
02:58Are we sure they're all dead?
03:01From a medical perspective, yes.
03:04What is this Morse code thing? What's that telling us?
03:07That's an EEG. It's measuring the brain activity of the corpses.
03:11The brain activity?
03:13Yeah, it's fascinating, actually.
03:15Brain activity doesn't immediately cease after death, actually.
03:18It can last up to 72 hours.
03:20Okay, so you're saying they died within the last three days?
03:24Only need a little time to confirm that.
03:29And the liquids, what are these?
03:32Well, those are all about keeping the bodies fresh.
03:35Keeping a moniker mode of brain activity going on.
03:39So you're saying the bodies are being kept here by someone?
03:43Looks fine. My question is why?
03:46Maybe for some bio-experiments or, I don't know, black market organ trading or something.
03:52We might need to consult someone to see what's really going on here.
03:56You're a little concerned about who they are and how they died.
04:00Well, we're on it.
04:03What is it?
04:04Is this bed empty the whole time?
04:12Do you think there was someone here before as well?
04:29Don't bother.
04:30The community's still waiting for repairs from the hurricane.
04:33That was two months ago.
04:34Yeah.
04:34Welcome to the efficiency of the city and poor neighborhoods.
04:37You should know that.
04:39You think we should leave a few officers here to stake out the place for a few days?
04:43That's your call, but I think it's clearly abandoned.
04:47Looks like we have a big problem.
04:49And it's not so abandoned after all.
04:54Low 32 degrees Fahrenheit.
04:56The activity of the sample significantly increases.
05:00Professor, are we starting a live experiment today?
05:02No, I don't think it's a good time.
05:06But according to our agreement with Morel Biotech, we need to assess the sample's cold intolerance as soon as possible.
05:14Listen, I don't think they're being straight with us about the samples.
05:17Well, um, they don't need to be straight with us as long as they pay up, right?
05:23The first round of live experiments wiped out all of our test subjects.
05:28Got one, got two.
05:32All of them.
05:32Don't you think we should tread a little carefully?
05:36I think, uh, mice don't have bills to pay or loans to settle.
05:40Once you figure out it's parasitic mode, then we'll give the experiment another shot.
05:45What if they pull their funding because of it?
05:47They won't.
05:48They need these answers.
05:50Just like you said.
05:50He's been dead for several days.
06:03Okay, so why no signs of decomposition?
06:06That's because of those things.
06:09Take a look at this.
06:11It's likely he died from frostbite.
06:13Okay, why are we picking up brainwaves, then, of a guy that's been dead for several days?
06:17Not sure.
06:17Is it possible he's still alive?
06:22Yep.
06:23There's a door now.
06:24Seriously, George, what?
06:26Oh, come on.
06:27That was awesome, and you know it.
06:32Roger's expecting a report first thing in the morning.
06:35Yeah, I'm gonna get to it later.
06:36I need a break.
06:37You wanna get a drink?
06:39Uh, my son just called, and you know this job's already ruining my marriage, and you want
06:43me to go home smelling like a bar?
06:44My bad, I'm sorry.
06:46It's okay.
06:46You just behave yourself.
06:48Don't I always?
06:49Yeah.
06:54Another one?
06:56Yeah, why not?
07:00Drinking a loom tonight?
07:01Slumming it in police bars, now I see it.
07:13What can I get for you?
07:14I'll have what he's at me.
07:15So, what are you doing here?
07:18Sounded like you had a pretty big case to run off to this morning.
07:20Yeah, I just had a really stressful day, and needed to blow off some steam.
07:24Hmm.
07:24Would you like some help with that?
07:44Mickey?
07:46Mickey?
07:48Mickey?
07:49Mickey?
07:51No.
07:53No, no, no, no.
07:54No, no, no.
07:57My baby boy.
08:01Self-assert.
08:02Hmm.
08:03Is detective.
08:05Who's this?
08:07That.
08:07He's 12.
08:09His name's Mickey.
08:13Regician is actually about to start.
08:15You can handle it.
08:17I think I can do a shot.
08:18you're telling me that i got dead bodies with brainwaves that we can't even identify
08:39i'm sorry sir look we tapped into the national database and we've got nothing to tell us who
08:43they are no ids no meta records nothing just some marks on their arms we're assuming are
08:48track marks from drug use we gotta keep quiet about this kind of thing until we know more
08:54you would be surprised how something like this can affect a vote in this town and the election
08:58is next month what you got there what is that what you got there boy okay but now they found
09:13two new bodies what fresh ones where down by the lake well are you coming
09:21looks like it rained pretty hard down here damn it george i know
09:35man i'm so sorry for your loss i need this wrapped up now all right the election
09:53no drugs no toxins victims were bitten bitten by what don't know albert thinks it could
10:11maybe want to escape from the zoo yeah okay what do you think you know i'm gonna be back
10:18in a little bit what but hodge is expecting us for a meeting you got this you got this i got this
10:25oh my god
10:32oh my god
10:36oh my god
10:54Is anyone there?
11:24So you knew him?
11:40Oof.
11:41I'll never forget Christmas morning, stepping outside the back of the house and seeing old
11:45Frank there frozen like an ice sculpture.
11:48Frostbite.
11:50Beyond dead.
11:51He must have fell asleep drunk in the dish the night before.
11:55Only two hours just to chip him out of the ice.
11:57So if he died last Christmas, how is he here on this table?
12:01It's more your department, detective.
12:03I'll get you to it.
12:05Look.
12:06Hey.
12:07Hey.
12:08I think I found your gorilla.
12:12I see.
12:14All right.
12:15Thanks, buddy.
12:16They're fake plates.
12:18You can't trace anything.
12:20Gosh, you left some men there.
12:22No, it's my fault.
12:23I mean, I never thought they'd come back.
12:25Oh yeah, boys.
12:28This is it.
12:29This is it.
12:30Yeah.
12:31Joe said, this is it.
12:32It's perfect, right?
12:34You say so, man.
12:36You say so, man.
12:38It's freezing.
12:39Joe's going to freeze off in here, man.
12:40There you go.
12:41You're going to give me an asthma.
12:42Superman doesn't have asthma.
12:44Hey, Superman.
12:46Hey, Superman.
12:49Text one over and see where she is.
12:50Hey, guys.
12:51I think you're sucking in the water.
13:07The others are connected, too.
13:09Tell me about this other case.
13:11You can see the dead woman and child with bite marks.
13:14The killer was, uh, what'd you call it, uh...
13:16Bilt's banana?
13:20So, at the first scene, there was that bed that was empty.
13:22You know, I think there was someone there before.
13:24But somehow they got up.
13:26They got away.
13:30And started killing people.
13:32I mean, of course, it's just a theory.
13:37Yeah, yeah, well, good thing it's just a theory.
13:39What am I supposed to do if it's true, huh?
13:40To call some ghostbusters?
13:42Hey, I'm sure, man, ghosts can't kill people, right?
13:47Alright, y'all, uh, y'all go out and find whoever, or, uh, whatever.
13:52You think we should call the police?
13:56Leave it here.
14:01This dump is where you chose to film?
14:07Hey, I'm sorry.
14:11No, no problem.
14:13At 32 degrees Fahrenheit, the sample is in a sort of hibernation phase.
14:17But, when it's warmer, the sample becomes more active.
14:22Upon the discovery of a host body, it goes through a sort of metamorphosis of sorts.
14:28Once it's within comfortable temperature range, that's when it starts reproducing and eventually
14:34taking over the host body's entire central nervous system.
14:37Oh, my God.
14:39What does that have to do with temperature?
14:42Well, I'm not exactly sure yet.
14:44I noticed, too, that when submerged in water for too long, the activities decrease there, too.
14:49But, as soon as it is back in oxygen-rich environments, they bounce back in a matter of minutes.
14:55Ew, gross. Get off me.
15:00That was great, guys.
15:02Oh, man, I'm out of here.
15:03I got another gig.
15:04You know the film?
15:05Nah, a bachelor at party.
15:06What the hell?
15:08What's wrong?
15:09That thing, it moves.
15:10It's either open.
15:11Oh.
15:12Hey, hey, dude, are you okay?
15:14Oh, my God!
15:16Oh, my God!
15:21Morel Biotech claims this sample's from the Antarctic ice.
15:24Mm-hmm.
15:25They're lying.
15:27There's no way they would stumble upon a chunk of ice in Antarctica with its sample still intact.
15:32They definitely found a host body.
15:34They never should have brought it out of Antarctica.
15:38Antarctica is melting, Professor.
15:40We're going to come into contact with it anyway.
15:42They just want us to fix the sample's cold sensitivity.
15:45Well, I need to make sure it's safe first, don't I?
15:49The sample is in Petri dishes.
15:51That is as safe as it gets.
15:54I'm sorry about your family.
15:57Maybe you need a break.
16:01Woo!
16:04I wouldn't go in there for a while if I were you guys.
16:09Guys?
16:12get off me!
16:37Hello?
16:45Hey, oh, hold on.
16:49Holy hell, I just killed Superman.
16:56Weird, right?
17:05The hell happened?
17:07Apparently, a guy in the blue Speedo just dashed out of the road, and the fan guy ran him
17:12over.
17:13What's weird, then?
17:15Looks like he came from that house.
17:18You won't believe what's inside.
17:25Check it out.
17:26Got the whole superhero crew.
17:36Something kind of marks the mother and son head.
17:37And there's another big surprise we found just before you got here.
17:43It's crazy.
17:44We found this one floating in the water.
17:50You think this is the corpse that escapes?
17:53I think so.
17:54Same outfit.
17:55Even got the same gown.
17:56Same gown.
17:57I'd like to take this one back.
18:03Compared to the samples that we already have.
18:05You know, before the evidence gets contaminated.
18:08All right, Albert.
18:09It's yours.
18:10I got something else to show you.
18:15I got something else to show you.
18:16I got something else to show you.
18:17I got something else to show you.
18:22I got something else to show you.
18:23Wow.
18:24Yeah, a whole superhero orgy.
18:27But guess who was here but wasn't in the film?
18:30You watched the whole thing, didn't you?
18:32That's not important.
18:35Guess who?
18:36Superman.
18:37Yeah, I bet one of these guys has a biting fetish.
18:41Yeah, okay.
18:42Then we need to compare traces.
18:43If we're lucky, we'll rep this case today.
18:45Let's hope so.
18:46Mm-hmm.
18:47Play some music.
19:17Let's hope so.
19:37Yeah.
19:42I just wanted to restore it as much as possible.
19:55And?
19:56Any useful information?
19:58Not good news.
19:59The bite wounds, including the lethal ones,
20:02well, they match the dental records of our Superman who got hit by the car.
20:07I knew it.
20:09Case closed.
20:10No, wait, I don't understand.
20:11How did he get involved with the corpses in the basement?
20:16I ran into that guy in that house, remember?
20:18Yeah.
20:19Was he wearing a red Speedo?
20:20No, but he was also more filled out than your Speedo guy.
20:24Maybe they have another accomplice.
20:27Maybe.
20:30Okay, I need a hot shower and a hot date after today.
20:35Go ahead, I'll write the report.
20:37You sure?
20:38Go on.
20:38Oh, and tell your hot date.
20:42Sorry to hear about his phone.
20:46How'd you know?
20:47Hunter's no thanks.
20:48I'll have to.
20:49I don't know.
20:58I don't need her.
21:03I don't know.
21:05I don't know.
21:08I don't know.
21:09Suspicious vehicle found on Dunham Street.
21:26Need to check some plates, please.
21:30Amen.
21:31Amen.
21:33I'm so sorry about your family, Professor.
21:36I know it's kind of soon, but I was wondering if it could work on the experiment tonight.
21:41Uh, I don't think the call-in is going to be up to doing that today.
21:44Actually, I could use the distraction.
21:48I'll be at the lab later this afternoon.
21:51I'll see you.
21:56Hi, George.
21:57We found the gray sedan.
21:59Yeah.
21:59Plates have been changed, but it's the one.
22:02Send me the address. I'll be right there.
22:03Yeah.
22:04I'm so sorry.
22:05No, it's fine.
22:06Yeah.
22:06Seriously.
22:12What have we got?
22:14Well, car's clean, but we found some fingerprints on a wrench in the toolkit.
22:18It belonged to this guy.
22:20He served a year in prison for armed robbery, but that's about it.
22:23He could be our guy.
22:24What else do we know about him?
22:26Absolutely nothing.
22:27Saw another ghost.
22:28Thanks.
22:29Let's go see if anyone's seen him at that hotel over there.
22:31I don't know.
22:49Hands behind your head.
22:50Endangered Animal Protection Association.
22:58Journalist.
22:59So what's so newsworthy about her?
23:01Why were you at that house?
23:08I'm not talking without my lawyer.
23:10Rheons.
23:10Listen.
23:19Rheons.
23:20No way.
23:21This is what led to aggression among the same species.
23:24Rheons.
23:25Rheons cause mutations in the central nervous system, while the toxoplasma keeps the brainstem
23:29and cerebellum connected with the nerves.
23:32They basically created a whole new system within the host organism.
23:36You're a genius.
23:39We've just modified these samples and made them more adaptable to low temperatures.
23:44That's exactly what our sponsor wanted.
23:46But they're prions.
23:48It's going to be more difficult for them to spread if they become cold resistant.
23:56We can't hand them over until the risks are assessed.
23:59We can't let things get out of control.
24:00Are you going to cooperate or what?
24:11Well then I can assure you, the next 48 hours are going to be pretty rough for you, my friend.
24:19Colin.
24:22Yeah, you're dating.
24:24He's an expert in toxoplasmosis.
24:26If you didn't know.
24:27Go on.
24:28Why don't you show them the corpses you found in the basement.
24:32If you find something very interesting.
24:40Are you going to follow his advice?
24:42You know, I always thought there was something weird about those corpses, so yeah, it might
24:44not be a bad idea.
24:47Alright, you go find Colin.
24:49I can find a way to make him talk.
24:54I don't like this.
24:56It's dangerous.
24:57I can just do everything here myself.
24:59No, we need to get him back to the official lab so Colin can make an assessment.
25:02There's too much research to do to figure out how this happened.
25:06We should have given him Frank instead.
25:07I mean, he's just been laying here since he came in.
25:09Nah, this one is by far the bigger mystery.
25:11Yes, yes, ma'am.
25:27I promise you, if we're re-elected, I will make sure that happens.
25:31I only want what's best for the citizens, and I will always do what it takes to keep our town safe.
25:36As this cold front moves away, temperatures will start to rise this week, and we will get
25:41a high key of-
25:41Here, take this.
25:50You'll be glad for the caffeine.
25:52Thanks.
25:52You know, you could have told me what was going on, and maybe had some faith in my multiple
25:59PhDs to help you figure this out.
26:01I know.
26:02I actually...
26:03Tell me about her.
26:09She's very smart, very focused, probably the best assistant I've ever had.
26:15How'd you meet her?
26:16About two years ago, she started with the team, and then within two months, she secured a targeted
26:22research sponsorship from Morel Biotech.
26:25Morel Biotech?
26:26Yes.
26:27Why?
26:28Okay, so I looked into this ship.
26:30It's an Antarctic research vessel owned by Morel Biotech.
26:34Hmm.
26:37The research project sponsored by Morel Biotech was to test the toxoplasma samples up back
26:43from Antarctica.
26:45Her and I need to have a conversation.
26:48Do you think you can get her to come in?
26:49Yeah, I can give her a call and see if she's available.
26:52Sure, if the professor calls her, she'll come.
26:54You know, she did say something weird earlier.
26:59Something along the lines of, we can't let things get out of control.
27:07Oh, that's crazy.
27:09Well, I've never done an MRI on a dead body before, so...
27:14Oh my God!
27:16What's going on?
27:17What the fuck was that?
27:32I don't know.
27:34Hello, professor?
27:38Hello?
27:39Hey, what happened?
27:40What happened?
27:40Hey, what the hell are you?
27:53Reagan, we need to get out of here.
27:56Don't move!
27:56Don't come any closer!
28:01Is it dead?
28:03It's dead already.
28:05Let's go.
28:10911, please record your message.
28:22What the hell happened in there?
28:25Wait, wait a minute.
28:26How is this possible?
28:27These were our samples.
28:29What samples?
28:30The body you brought in, it got infected by samples from Antarctica.
28:33Wait, what Antarctic samples?
28:34I'll explain later.
28:35Listen, anyone who has contact, especially blood contact, is going to turn into one again.
28:40Oh my God.
28:42So that's where the lab tech turned.
28:47You hear that?
28:48Another one?
28:51What?
28:52What?
28:52Go!
28:52Go, go, go, go!
29:07Get out of here!
29:08Get out of here!
29:09Get out of here!
29:09Get out of here!
29:10Get out of here!
29:16Get out of here!
29:19How are we gonna get out of here?
29:20We can't leave, Pauline!
29:21Pauline!
29:22Why?!
29:23Go, you can take us!
29:24We can't let them leave!
29:25Leave her if we can take us!
29:26I...
29:27You're gonna die!
29:29What are you doing now?
29:31I think this is a place to talk.
29:43Irene?
29:47It sounded like you need a help.
29:49What do you want to know?
29:55Everything.
29:57Four years ago, Victory, the research vessel of Norel Biotech started its two-year voyage at Antarctica.
30:09That's my twin sister.
30:11But what happened to the ship after Antarctica?
30:13It was found tied to a dock in Chile.
30:17Why Chile?
30:19They wanted to hide the fact that the entire crew had died, including my sister.
30:23Sorry, but why would they try to hide it?
30:27Because they wanted people to believe that Victory was still in service.
30:31What happened to it after that?
30:33I found it tied to a dry dock in the savannah, and what I saw in there was the closest thing to hell I've ever witnessed.
30:43It was like a massacre had taken place inside, except there were no bodies of the missing crew.
30:49I kept moving in, and there it was.
30:53It was a large room, and when I pulled the curtain, I opened the gate to hell.
30:59I opened the gate to hell.
31:06When I pulled the curtain, I opened the gate to hell.
31:09I opened the gate to hell.
31:30I, uh...
31:31I got bitten.
31:33But I...
31:34Didn't turn.
31:37So...
31:38The original samples were not infectious?
31:43These samples are clearly recognized.
31:46Who did this?
31:47Wait!
31:48What about...
31:51Let's go.
31:53His brother was a microbiologist on Victory.
31:56Edgar.
31:57We investigated the ship together.
31:58Wait!
31:59So he created those things in his basement?
32:01He upgraded the sample?
32:03There's more?
32:04You know, I bet he knows more than he's letting on about all of this.
32:07Especially those corpses in the basement.
32:09I'm gonna head back to the police station.
32:11I'll go with you.
32:12No, I need you to stay here and secure this place until the officers come.
32:14Can you do that?
32:16And you know what?
32:17Now that we know what we're dealing with, maybe you could do some more work and come up with a solution.
32:19Be safe.
32:20And you come with me.
32:21I need your help.
32:22Go.
32:34One second.
32:38What's up, Albert?
32:41What do you mean, gone?
32:44I'm on my way.
32:49Albert?
32:55Albert?
33:10No.
33:11Okay, you gotta deal with them.
33:12It's hard to find these people.
33:14Those got a shot.
33:15Those got a shot.
33:19Lock it down, people!
33:24He still isn't picking up.
33:25Just keep trying!
33:28Drop your weapons!
33:29And come out with your hands up!
33:33That's it.
33:36I still don't understand, though.
33:37The corpses in the basement seemed fine.
33:40Maybe they got treated somehow?
33:41I just wanted to restore it as much as possible.
33:42Is he answering, though?
33:43It's just not like them to not answer!
33:44Dammit!
33:45I can't do it!
33:46You left it!
33:47No!
33:48No!
33:49No!
33:50No!
33:51No!
33:52No!
33:53No!
33:54No!
33:55No!
33:56No!
33:57No!
33:58No!
33:59No!
34:00No!
34:01No!
34:02No!
34:03No!
34:04No!
34:05No!
34:06No!
34:07No!
34:08No!
34:09Most people!
34:11Exatly the same!
34:13We're.
34:14The cow.
34:21Damn it!
34:22Get on the ground!
34:23Hands up!
34:24How do you think?
34:26It's not me!
34:27It's not me!
34:28Edgar's gone.
34:40It looks like they came from down this way.
34:42There's an elevator.
34:45Yeah, that's it.
34:47Those lead to the morgue.
34:58Why are you not answering your phone?
35:22No, please.
35:28We need to get out! We need to get out of here!
35:56Where do you think this goes?
35:57I don't know.
35:58But anything's going to happen out here.
36:15I need to call the National Guard!
36:22What?
36:24Who exactly do you work for?
36:26This is just the beginning.
36:27This is just the beginning.
36:28This is just the beginning.
36:29This is just the beginning.

36:46This is just the beginning.
36:50This is just the beginning.
36:52This is just the beginning.
36:53I think it was the beginning.
36:54I'm just gonna put it away.
36:55I talk beautifully about my head.
36:57I want to make it out of here.
36:58I see here the camera, nobody shows you in the sky.
37:00This is just the beginning.
37:01I have no idea.
37:02It's a superstar too.
37:03Well, of course.
37:04I don't know.
37:34I don't know.
