[crickets chirping]

[radio static buzzing]

[buzzing]

[eerie whoosh]

[in Zulu][ghostly voice]
There is death in that tunnel.

[in Zulu] But its not what they think.

[in Zulu] Something hunts in the darkness.

Will?

Will.

Whats wrong?

Shes... Shes here.

Now you listen to me, son. Its not, real.

Its just your... mind
dealing with her death, okay?

But, she talks to me.

No, no, no, no, no, son. Its not real.

You think she does.

Theres nothing there, boy.

Theres no one there.

Nothing here at all.

You see?

[echoing] Its just your imagination, boy.

[man][echoing] I've told you not to
go down there!

Its your fault shes dead.

Why didnt you listen?

[man] So how...how's the writing going?

[Will] Its all right.

Getting there.

I, um, [clears throat]

Ive read all your books.

Theyre actually very good.

I dont remember you reading much?

I... I never had a son,
as an author before.

[Will] Mum says you guys keep in touch.

Yeah.

Shes a...

a very special lady.

I came to your, book...
event... in Cape Town.

And I..I wanted to come and say hello,

but, erm…

I...I...I didnt want to upset you, son.

It wouldve been fine.

[father] I owe you an apology.

Hows that for an understatement?

I dont expect you to forgive me.

I know its too late for that.

But, er...

I just need you to know that Im sorry.

You were hurting.

-We all were.
-Yeah, but thats...no excuse.

Maybe not.

But unless youre sick or something,

weve still got time.

Well,

Im not sick, I...

-Im as fit as a--
-[knock on door]

[father stammers]

...must be a customer.

[stammers]

Whoever it is, Ill get rid of them.
You just stay there.

Sure.

Yeah.

[father][echoing] And its feeding.
And its feeding.

[echoing]And its feeding.

Feeding, like a
[echo ends] great big snake.

And before you see it coming,

that snake

swallows you up.

[echoing] Do you understand?

Do you understand, boy?

[sinister music playing]

[in Zulu][ghostly voice] It took her away.

[in Zulu] Just like I warned you.

[in Zulu] Thats why youre here.

Who took her?

[in Zulu] I dont understand.

[in Zulu] You will. Its not over.

[father] I was hoping
we could go for lunch. You know,

just the, uh, well the three of us,

if...if...if thats okay with...with you?

Will?

Whats wrong?

Nothing.

Im fine.

Lunch sounds good.

[opening theme music playing]

[music ends]

[sinister music playing]

[Will] Where does folklore come from?

Is it merely the stories of our elders
passed down to us?

Or are they warnings... of things unseen.

Things, that watch and wait for us.

[boat thumps on ground]

[frantic whispers] Its okay. Its okay.
Its okay. Easy.

[sniffs]

[knock on door]

[loud exhale]

You look like shit.

You sure youre not dead?

Ow.

-Morning Joe.
-Hey.

Good to see you, too.

You all right?

Fine.

Still not sleeping?

Blinking a lot. Does that count?

So…

Where is this place?

Couple of hours out.

Its a nice place. Youd like it.

Its peaceful.

Peaceful? You mean
apart from all the people dying?

Apart from that.

So you and this guy, you were partners?

Yeah, one of them. Ive had a few.

Makes sense.

Whats he like?

Hes a good man.

Annoying, but solid.

[Will] You sure?

Hes not a serial killer?

He didnt mention anything on the phone,
so I think were good.

Whats his theory?

He believes that the, uh,
the lake is haunted. [clears throat]

Thats high praise indeed
coming from an ex-cop.

Yeah, well, all the police stuff
stopped making sense

a few weeks ago, so I can relate.

[Joe sighs]

Before we go on this road trip,
we need to get some food.

Sure, Joe. Why dont you check the fridge?

[playful music playing]

Youre a monster.

[Will] I thought cops were poor?

[Joe] Yeah, well, he got lucky.

Got shot in the back.
Scored a major payout.

[Kelly] Hmm, I dont know
if Id call that lucky.

[upbeat music playing]

[Joe] For that kind of money
you could shoot me in the face.

Ive got some money.
I mean, we can negotiate.

[Kelly laughs]

[knocks on door]

[Joe] You see? This is why
you dont give poor people money.

They do stupid shit like this.

[knocks on door]

Joe, is that you?

[door creaks open]

No, its the Reserve Bank.

We need a loan.

[man] Uh-oh.

Can somebody
please get rid of this mans gun?

Do not shoot me. Im unarmed.

[laughs]

Thats real funny. How long
have you been sitting on that one?

Wait, youre...
you're the one that shot him?

Yep. Right in the spine.
I should've been dead.

Grazed your spine, it was your fault.

You ran in front of me, remember?

Grazed?

Come on, Joe,
we both know thats not how it happened.

Listen, Officer Pay Day.
If I wanted to kill you,

youd be dead.

[Joe laughs]

Kelly. Elliot.

Elliot. Kelly.

-Hi.
-Hi.

Thank you for coming. I appreciate it.

-Uh-huh.
-Hmm.

Want anything to drink?

[Joe] Yeah, how about a whisky
with some frozen diamonds?

[Kelly laughs]

They call it Umvikeli.

The Protector.

The locals light up its eyes at night.

So it can watch over them.

Keep them safe.

Yeah, well, it sounds like somebodys
been sleeping on the job.

Yeah, I suppose it has.

How many deaths, total?

Seven.

-Four in the last two months.
-You dont think its murder?

Oh no, its definitely murder.

Its just not human.

Why not?

No gunshots. No stab wounds.

No trauma to the neck.

The victims either drown
or suffer some kind of internal bleeding.

The locals? What do they think?

Well, they think the lake is cursed.

[groans] That theyre being hunted.

One of the guys believes he saw something.

He does some work for me,
so I figured you should hear it from him.

Hes on his way.

So this guy [clears throat]

who works for you.

What exactly does he do?

Fluff your pillows
or wash your helicopter?

[laughing]

Actually, he gives me a hand job
from time to time.

-[Joe sputters]
-You can join if you want?

[Joe inhales deeply]

Right here…

Man, I miss you.

Oh.

-You can have him back.
-Oh no, hes one of us.

[Joe scoffs]

Ha!

[birds chirping]

[sinister music playing]

[in Zulu] Here.

[in Zulu] You need to explain to them.

[in Zulu] Theyre here to help us.
Leave nothing out.

[in Zulu] Okay.

Just tell them what you saw.

Well, uh...

[sighs]

I was fishing...by the island.

[in Zulu] A lady
was washing her clothes on the bank.

When she turned her back, for the bucket…

Thats when... it came for her.

She...she tried her best,
to fight with it,

but it was just too powerful.

It drowned her in the lake.

Did you see it? What was it?

[shocked sigh]

[sighs]

Sangoma.

[dramatic music playing]

There was a very powerful Sangoma
in our village.

He, uh...

he made a drink for the children
to try and help them grow.

But the children became very sick.

Had fever...

and started vomiting.

Many of them... they died.

So the men in the village, they…

they hunted him down

and drowned him in the lake.

And now Thabo believes
that the Sangoma's back.

Hes here to take his revenge.

[music grows more urgent]

[music ends]

[Kelly] Hey.

I was wondering where you went.

Hmm.

Needed a break
from the two comedians in there.

Joe on his owns enough,
but with Elliot, they are a bit too much.

Yeah. So.

What do you think?

Its not a Sangoma.

Why not?

Because despite everything youve seen,
there are still rules.

Like rising from the dead.
Thats a deal breaker.

Okay, so, ghosts and witches
and killer statues, that's okay,

but the line is drawn at zombies?

Exactly.

[Kelly huffs]

Well, at least Im getting you to smile.

What does that mean?

Well, look, I dont want you to take this
the wrong way

but...you were being
a giant asshole this morning.

Yeah, sorry.

Saw my grandmother. Been a while.

Your dead grandmother?

Uh-huh.

She was in my head about Rose.

About how she died.

What did she say?

Honestly?

I dont know.

[Elliot] Hey, guys.
Ive arranged the boat.

Its not much,
but should get you to the island.

Thank you, Elliot.

Are you guys sure about this?

Its the only way to help.

-We need to be on the island, right?
-Yeah.

And you agreed to this?

Yeah, it was my idea, so…

Okay. You sure you dont want
to stay here with me for a bit?

[Kelly laughs]

You know what, youre the expert.

-Let me know when you need me, girl.
-Okay.

-All right.
-[Kelly] Thank you.

Thank you.

[Will imitates Kelly] Thanks.

[Kelly huffs]

I cant believe Joe almost killed him.

What do you mean?
Have you forgotten about the aquarium?

He almost shot us.

[laughs] Fuck, I did forget about that.

I think we should vote
to take Joes gun away.

-Yeah.
-Cool.

[laughs]

[Elliot] Well, this is it, kids. Enjoy.

[Joe] Nice yacht.

So with all those millions,
this is the best you can do?

I told you.

Im not a boat guy.
I dont like being on the water.

And this boat doesnt look like
it likes being on the water.

Well, theres an old canoe and thats it.

Oh, you got jokes now?

[fake laughter]

Were not crossing the Atlantic, gents.

-I think well be fine.
-Exactly.

Its not the size
of the water thats the problem.

It is the size of the problem
in the water that is a problem.

Oh my god, Joe. Youll be fine.

-And how do you know that?
-Because whatever this is?

It mainly hunts at night. I think.

[clears throat]

-Mainly?
-[Elliot] Uh-huh.

Oh, well, thats a relief,
Officer Pay Day.

Why dont we just swim across then, hey?

Come on, Joe.

Look, lets just... let's just
get over there and see what happens.

-[Joe] I am not rowing.
-Ill row!

[Joe] Okay.

[bag thumps in boat]

-[Joe] You go in first.
-[Kelly] Okay.

-[thumping in boat]
-[water splashing]

[low droning music playing]

Whats wrong?

Something happened here.

People got hurt.

Yeah, no shit.

No.

This happened a long time ago.

Its something else, Joe.

Maybe Mr. Scarecrow here
got tired of playing security guard

and went on a rampage.

Unlikely.

Yeah, well, somethings going on, right?

Yeah. Something.

And whats with all this mist?

[low droning music continues]

[Joe breathes deeply]

[Joe] You know if the dead Sangoma
doesnt kill us,

the malaria probably will.

All right guys, what are we doing here?
Huh? Whats the plan?

[Kelly groans] Will,

just tell him.

Yeah, Will.

Tell me…

Relax Joe.

This isnt anything supernatural.

-Oh, its not?
-[Will] No.

Its a crocodile. It has to be.

And why does it have to be?

Because of the facts.

Each of the victims either drowned
or died from internal bleeding,

like they had their ribs crushed.
There were no weapons involved.

And the attacks are indiscriminate.

[Joe scoffs]

Okay.

Elliots guy, all right?

Thats not, what he said he saw.

Its not what he thinks he saw.

He keeps expecting to see
some back-from-the-dead medicine man,

so thats just what his brain feeds him.

That woman was killed on the shoreline

in exactly the way it would happen
if a crocodile attacked.

I mean, it mustve been a blur.

Okay. Cool, cool. Whatever. All right.

Lets say youre right. And just
for the record, Im not saying that.

[yells] Then what the hell
are we doing here?

Okay, were going to catch it on film.

-Were going to show the locals the proof
-[grass rustles]

and then get some professional guy
to come and help.

And thats if were not killed first.

-You guys hear that?
-[Will] No.

[Kelly] Theres nothing.

-Shh.
-[Kelly] What are you doing?

-[Joe] Shit.
-[grass rustles]

Easy, Joe.

[grass rustles]

[music crescendos and ends]

Jesus! Elliot.

Do you want me to shoot you again?

What are you doing here?

Look, some of the locals
showed up at the house.

They want to know why those eyes
havent been lit yet.

Tell him!

[Kelly] Okay, look,
just tell them not to worry, okay?

We, uh, we figured it out.

Hmm.

[sinister music playing]

[Elliot] Look, I hear what youre saying.

It makes a lot of sense.

But Ive been living here for two years,
Ive never seen a crocodile.

[Will] There are a lot of rivers
in this area.

It could come and go as it pleases, eh?

[Elliot] Yeah, but people have been
dying here for months, man.

Im pretty sure someone
would have seen it by now.

Elliot, trust me.

Its a crocodile.

Believe me Ive seen a lot of things.
But corpses?

They dont rise from the dead.

-[sudden loud music]
-[screaming]

[gunshot]

-[screaming]
-[gunshots]

[Kelly] Oh my god.

-[Kelly] Breathe. Breathe. Youre okay.
-[Elliot] What the fuck was that?

-[gasping]
-[Kelly] Shit.

[Kelly] It's okay, breathe.

How are you holding up, Pay Day?

I think Im going to die!

Its just your shoulder, man.
Just your shoulder.

We have to get him to the hospital.
Hes going to lose a lot of blood.

[Will] All right, lets get him up.
One, two, three!

[Elliot screams in pain]
I cant believe you shot me again!

[Joe] Well, next time
Ill do you a favor and finish the job.

[eerie music playing]

[heavy breathing]

Just breathe. Just breathe.

Hey, look at me. Youre going to be fine.

-[Joe] Howre you doing there, buddy?
-Im just a bit dizzy.

Yeah, try to keep your eyes open.

Yeah, well, thanks.

[heavy breathing]

-[Elliot screams]
-Sorry! Im sorry!

-[Elliot screams]
-I have to keep the pressure on. Okay?

-Okay.
-Okay.

-Hey, Im fine. Im fine, guys? Im fine.
-Okay.

-[Kelly] Joe? Joe?
-Yeah?

Do you think you got him?

I dont know. Maybe.

Then again, how do you kill a dead guy?

[screams]

Will!

Will!

[Kelly screams] Will!

Will! Dont shoot him! Dont shoot him!

Will?

[tense urgent music playing]

[gunshots]

[Kelly] Will!

[Joe] Will!

[Kelly breathes heavily]

Do you see him?

-[water splashes]
-[Will exhales loudly]

[Kelly] Okay, Will! Breathe! Breathe!

-Are you okay? Are you hurt?
-[Will] Im fine.

[coughs] Let's get out of here.

Just keep your eyes on the water!

-Okay.
-[Joe yells]

Is it dead?

[heavy breathing]

[Kelly] Okay. Okay. Youre okay.

[Will coughs]

[screams]

[Joe] Oh, stop complaining!
I shot you like ten minutes ago.

All right. Easy. Easy. Watch your head.
All right. All right.

-Give me the keys!
-[Joe] Here.

You sure you know where youre going?

Its on the main road, Ill find it.

-[Joe] You sure?
-Yes!

[Will] Stay at the hospital,
dont come back.

[Kelly] Why? What are you going to do?

I think I know how to end this,
but theres no time to explain. So go.

Okay.

Please tell me
that you werent bullshitting

because we are seriously
running out of bullets!

Ive got a plan,
but youre not going to like it.

-Weve got to go back to the island.
-Back to the island?

Whoa, whoa, whoa, listen.

The scarecrow isnt protecting the locals.

Its guarding something.

Lets go.

-Joe!
-Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

[eerie music playing]

Shh. Shh.

[music grows more menacing]

[Joe] I dont get it.

Why would they kill his son?

[Will] To end the Sangoma bloodline.

To prevent his son from coming back
and taking revenge against them.

Its a common tribal practice.

And this is going to help?

When I was in the water
I could feel what he's thinking.

This is what hes been searching for.

The scarecrow isnt here
to prevent people from dying.

Its here to stop the Sangoma
from finding his boy.

And what if youre wrong?

Lets face it,

you havent been right
about much these days.

Just keep digging.

[eerie breathing]

Thats it.

Thats it, thats it, thats it.

So either hes going to appreciate
what weve done here,

or hes going to blame us
for killing his son.

Because he was so reasonable earlier,
wasnt he?

[sudden loud music]

Oh shit!

-Will!
-Easy, easy.

Easy.

Just give me the word
and Ill put him down.

I know. I know.

[eerie breathing]

[in Zulu] Im sorry.

[Sangoma croaks]

[in Zulu] We know
youve been searching for him.

[scared inhale]

[Sangoma croaks]

[eerie voices singing]

[eerie breathing]

[Joe] Okay.

-Thats one ugly crocodile.
-[huffs]

Yeah. Yeah.

Lets get out of here.

Please.

[somber music playing]

[fire crackling]

[music ends]

[Joe] Hey, yo!

Elliot!

Where you at?

Sorry, can I help you?

Uh,

Im looking for my friend, Elliot.

[stammers] Elliots my friend.
Im sorry, who are you?

Im his caregiver, Rebecca.

Im helping him to convalesce.

Of course.

Hes in the lounge.

-Who?
-Elliot.

Yeah. Elliot.

Hes my friend.

Thank...thank, thank you.

[jazzy music playing]

Yo!

How you doing?

Hows the convalescing?

[Elliot groans]

I see youve met, uh, Becky.

Hmm. Yeah, man, shes an angel,
you know, she's really good at her job.

She takes her job very seriously.

Shes passionate. Dedicated.

Yeah, I got a good look
at her credentials earlier.

What exactly does she do for you?

Oh no, just important things, you know,
like, er, massage, sponge bath.

Shes really lifting up, my days lately.

Uh-huh.

Im sure thats not
the only thing shes lifting.

[grunts]

I cant believe you shot me.

-Again.
-I cant believe you survived again.

[laughs]

I suppose you did save my life.

Oh, you noticed that, huh?

Hmm.

Hows, uh, Kelly doing?

And whats his name again? That guy?

Theyre doing good. [sighs]

Going through some personal bullshit.
I dont know. I wasnt really listening.

Okay.

Hmm.

I got you something.

Here.

Oh, sorry. Thats not it.

That's...

thats Beckys.

Sorry.

This...

this is straight from my heart, okay?

Well, look at you! Officer Pay Day!

I knew you were tight with your brothers--

-Hey, Joe. Im serious.
-Yo.

This was actually a few inches
away from my heart.

Its really special to me
and I want you to have it.

I figured youre a cheap-ass bastard,
you might as well keep it.

[sniffs]

Thanks.

I get shot, I get medical bills.

You get shot...

you get a Becky.

[Elliot] Hmm-mmm.

Yes, I do.

Well, your luck is bound
to run out at some point, my friend.

I doubt it, man.

I was born lucky.

Or maybe I just happen
to be a shitty shot?

That too.

[grunts]

Thank you for everything, man.

Anything you need...

except money... I got you.

[huffs]

Take care, man.

Easy! Easy!

-Did I do that? Was that me?
-[Elliot] Becky!

Becky.

[pots crashing]

[Elliot] Dont break my shit, man!

[sinister music playing]

You ready?

Yeah.

[somber music playing]

[clang]

Do you feel anything?

Nothing.

You okay?

Im all right, I just... spent
so much time thinking about this place.

Theres nothing here, it's...

Its just a tunnel.

Yeah.

Will. Look.

Look at this. What is this?

[grunts]

I'm not sure what you're thinking, but...

that wouldn't have belonged to my sister.
She never wore any kind of jewelry.

Lets get out of here.

[somber music continues]
