Original subtitles

Miguel!

Miguel!

Miguel.

Miguel.

Gwangi.

No, no.

Leave it.

He who takes from gwangi, the evil one, is cursed.

Only by an old woman's tongue.

If he does not go back to the forbidden valley,

we shall all suffer!

My eyes are blind, but I see the signs!

Keep your superstitions to yourself!

Fool!

Hah!

One day he will learn to obey the law of gwangi,

or, like his brother, he will perish!

Howdy, ma'am.

Pasa, Senorita.

Carry your case, senor'?

Eh, don't bother me, boy.

Don't you need a guide?

No, I don't need a guide.

An interpreter? No.

You need a horse, senor.

I don't need anything. Now get lost, comprende?

There is no money in that, senor.

You want to do something?

If there's money.

Tell me where the arena is.

2 miles away.

2 miles?

You need that horse and a guide.

You're a real hustler, Chico.

I'll bet pappy sends you out

while he takes a siesta.

No, senor. My papa is dead.

I run my own business.

My name is lope.

OK, lope, you and me

will do some business together.

Now, how about that horse?

10 pesos, senor.

And five more for the saddle.

The first million

is always the toughest, lope.

Woo! Woo!

Eeyah!

Aah!

Yah!

Ladies and gentlemen,

I now have the honor to present

the lovely and talented star of our show,

riding wonder horse Omar,

Miss T.J. Breckenridge.

Well, I'll be. Hey, tuck!

Tuck Kirby! Hi there.

What in the name of Sam hill

brings you around here?

Up to no good.

You don't seem glad to see me, champ.

Like a dying mule seeing a vulture.

I'm no vulture... Bird on the wing, maybe.

Flying to the next quick buck.

Looks like you finally made it.

Yeah, I'm making out alright.

All you care about is yourself.

I still care about T.J.

You fuss like a mother hen.

Her daddy was my friend.

Somebody's got to protect her

from guys running out like you.

You weren't sorry I left.

Nope.

But it nearly broke T.J.'s heart.

I hear you're not doing so good by her, either.

Haven't been enough customers.

We don't need any big shot

telling us about the show.

Why don't you just go back...

Wait a minute.

That's her tune.

That's the grand finale, right?

Well, I'm surprised you remembered.

Excuse me. I've got to see this...

For old times' sake, you understand?

Carlos.

Hurry up with that ramp.

Howdy there, partner.

Ex-partner.

To what do we owe this unpleasant surprise?

I'm just looking around.

Trouble comes in threes.

I wonder what the next two are.

Hey, you can't go in there.

Get out!

It's been a long time, T.J.

Do you want to get killed?

You're the one who's always trying it out there.

Don't start that.

We are going to have a quiet talk,

or you'll be across my knee.

Fat chance.

This is T.J., remember?

Sure, I remember.

If you don't mind, I'd like to change.

Well, go on. Go ahead!

You hesitated before the jump.

Seeing you would upset your own mother.

You're not pulling much of a crowd, are you?

In Villarosa, things will be better.

You sure?

Sure, I'm sure.

Why is that?

What do you care? You've got your business.

Yep, that's right. One-man operation.

Sitting in a plushy office, buying and selling acts

instead of getting knocked off horses.

It's less risk and more pay.

So mind your own business.

I'm doing just that.

I've got a deal to get you off the hook here.

If you've got a brain, you'll take it.

Thanks.

Buffalo bill wants to buy Omar the wonder horse.

He's offering a good price.

And you get 10%, right?

20.

You're not getting one thin dime out of me.

And buffalo bill is not getting Omar.

And you can't come busting in here

like some hick-town horse dealer

trying to ruin my show.

People depend on me... Champ, Carlos, rowdy.

But then you wouldn't know anything about loyalty,

would you?

This is business.

You play con tricks, and I'll stick to horse tricks.

Now, beat it!

My, my, you always did look sweet in a temper.

Get out I said!

I've got hotter irons in the fire, honey.

Just keep struggling along leaping off platforms.

Go ahead break your neck if you want to.

Makes no difference to me.

Good.

Just worried about that horse.

Wouldn't want him hurt.

Ooh!

Excuse me.

Good for you.

You should have thrown him out a long time ago.

I say! Hello there!

Over here, sir.

Someone you know?

A client of mine. Professor Bromley.

What's he doing out there?

He digs for old bones and things.

Hello!

Sounds like he's in trouble.

I say, thank heavens you came along.

What has happened, professor?

What has happened?

You know very well what has happened.

Rosita?

Rosita, my mule, refused to budge.

Then she kicked me.

I don't know where she's gone now.

Are you hurt?

Well, there are no bones broken,

but it's frightfully painful.

By the way, I don't believe we've met.

My name's Bromley.

Hi. Name's tuck Kirby.

Hop on. We'll give you a ride back.

Perhaps lope's mount might be

a little more practical.

Wait!

Whoa.

My boy.

Come on!

You ought to know better

than to get behind a stubborn mule, professor.

Your advice comes a little late, Kirby.

Look, professor. Rosita has found her way home!

Vicious beast.

Give me your shoulder, lope.

I'd say you could use a good stiff drink.

You're right. It's in the trunk.

Lope tells me you're one of these, uh,

one of these archaeologist fellows.

He's pretty near the mark.

Actually, I'm a paleontologist.

Oh. We dig deeper.

It isn't good to dig up the past.

Let sleeping dogs lie, eh?

We won't get very far that way.

Depends on where you want to get to.

To the bottom of things.

What Darwin did with his theory of evolution,

I intend to do with my theory of humanoids.

Humanoids?

It means manlike.

Paleontologists generally believe

that man first evolved about a million years ago.

I'll prove it was many eons before that.

If you'd like to look in that trunk,

you'll find a piece of rock.

Will you get it?

That's it?

Now look at the fossil,

the impression left in the rock.

Looks like a footprint.

Precisely. It's an Eohippus!

50...

Eohippus. The so-called dawn horse...

The ancestor of our present day horses.

I never saw a horse small enough

to leave a print like that.

You notice it had three toes?

Through evolution, horses have grown larger.

That center toe has become the hoof.

Incredible!

Si, incredible.

What is more incredible is the fossil beside it.

I'm convinced that is the tibia of some humanoid

that existed at the same time as the Eohippus,

possibly more than 50 million years ago.

You found this thing around here?

In the foothills.

This is my whole life, Mr. Kirby,

but I need time and money.

My resources, both financial and physical,

are running precariously low.

Well, professor,

what you need is a good rest.

Yes, Mr. Kirby.

Thank you for your kindness.

Lope.

I'll bet you didn't know

that was your middle toe, did you?

T.J.

Yeah?

Can I speak to you a moment?

Of course. In private.

I know.

You want that money I owe you. Don't worry.

We'll pack them in with our new attraction.

El Diablo will be successful.

Shh. Quiet.

It's not only money.

What else?

Us together. You and me and Diablo...

Let's see how it goes.

Hiyah!

Itoro!

Ha ha ha!

Hiyah! Itoro!

Hi there, hon!

I thought I told you to go.

About that deal.

So go!

I guess you've been thinking about it.

Nothing is further from my mind, except you.

Hey, Toro!

Hey, Toro!

Hey, Toro!

Lope!

Hey, Toro!

Hey, hey, Toro!

Tuck!

Darling, are you alright?

Cut it out, tuck,

if you want to get repaired.

It's not easy to keep still

with you hanging around me like that.

Who was that fellow who jumped the bull?

Oh, Carlos.

I'm glad he was there.

He saved your life.

Why did you walk out on me, tuck?

I was ready to sell out,

to marry you.

That's all I ever wanted.

I don't know.

I didn't want to.

Getting married is like being a horse

tied up in a corral.

I never could take being all roped up.

T.J., you know what?

I just know you're going to sell me Omar.

Hmm?

That's right.

You've got a deal.

Wait a minute. What's going on?

Nothing. Anything for you, baby.

Don't give me that baby stuff.

Carlos brought me a new act.

What kind?

Come to the opening at Villarosa.

No, no, I mean now.

Alright. I'll show you tonight.

But first, the patient must rest,

or he might have a relapse,

and relapses can be fatal.

T.J...

Now lie still.

Doesn't it hurt to move?

Terrible.

Meet El Diablo.

Well, if that don't beat all.

You want a little sugar, don't you?

Where'd you ever get this critter?

Carlos found him.

He must have been in a gold mine.

It took a while to train him,

but he's ready to debut.

What's the act?

We strap a platform onto Omar's back.

El Diablo waltzes on top.

A horse dancing on horseback.

That's got to be a humdinger.

I can see it all now.

Presenting El Diablo,

the world's one and only miniature horse.

We are on our way to a fortune.

Amazing.

It's absolutely astounding.

It was those three toes that started me thinking.

And four on its hind feet.

Great Scott, it could be...

An Eo... what's it?

Hippus.

Eohippus, yes.

Eohippus, if you are one...

What are you doing here over 50 million years

after you should be extinct?

It could be a freak of nature.

Is there any way to tell?

By checking its origin.

If I could prove this is the genuine article,

I shall receive a knighthood

for the greatest scientific discovery of the age.

The greatest scientific discovery of the age?

T.J. Doesn't know what she's got.

Sir Horace Bromley.

It'll look great in lights.

Buffalo bill, Barnum & Bailey.

Galileo, Newton, and Bromley...

Or the Ringling brothers...

We'll play one off against the other,

sell to the highest bidder.

Possibly lord Bromley.

We'd make a killing.

We must find out where this little horse came from.

Let's find this guy Carlos.

Impossible.

My dear fellow, I have no

commercial interest in El Diablo.

I'm a scientist.

I don't care what you are.

T.J. Has given away our secret,

destroying all my dreams.

Be reasonable.

My people do not understand reason.

That witch Tia Zorina speaks nonsense

about El Diablo. They believe it.

You could show us the camp.

You've caused enough trouble already.

Well, thanks for your help, Carlos.

What help? Tia Zorina. Camp.

We can sure find that camp.

How? Why, lope.

Lope?

Sure. That kid could find

a needle in a haystack

and sell it for a profit.

Iole!

Iole! Iole!

Madam, I am prepared to pay a guide handsomely.

To lead you to the forbidden valley? No!

Not for all the gold in the world.

What forbidden valley?

From there came the little horse.

And until he is returned,

a great evil will fall upon us.

Rubbish!

Unless the horse is returned,

we shall all suffer the curse of hell.

Superstitious claptrap.

There's nothing hocus-pocus about that little horse.

Don't you realize we've discovered

a living specimen of the Eohippus?

You mean that thing really is an Eohippus?

Of course.

Well, naturally we shall have to prove it

by scientific research.

Well, we aren't getting

any scientific research done here,

are we, professor?

Uh, if you can't help me,

perhaps I can help you.

If you knew where the little horse was hidden,

what would you do?

Return it to the forbidden valley.

Well...

A centavo for your thoughts, senor.

Oh, hiya, lope.

Limonada, por favor.

You look unhappy, senor.

I've got a problem, lope.

I've been wrestling with it for hours.

Sometimes it helps to tell an amigo.

Well, it's like this, amigo.

I made a big discovery last night,

and if I tell this friend about it,

she could make a fortune.

But if she makes a fortune,

it might not help me.

I can't figure

why I'm helping her make a fortune

when I could just be quiet

and make a fortune myself. Savvy?

I savvy very well.

I can't understand it.

Love.

Love's for Latins.

My mama used to tell me,

"when you help someone you love,

you help yourself."

Here. Limonada. For free advice.

Muchas gracias.

De nada.

You sure know how to help yourself, lope.

What's the big discovery, senor?

No, no. You'll want a cut.

Why? I'm doing fine alone.

I see. Widening your horizons.

Sorry, senor?

You're going on a journey.

With the professor.

With the professor?

I must meet him tonight,

with the mule, outside the arena.

Well, that's it, amigo. No more figuring.

I think my friend needs help right now.

Ha ha ha!

Ah. Si, Si, Si.

Ivamos!

Come on, come on.

Hey...

Hey, tuck!

Tuck, what's the hurry?

Lope, come here.

We are in luck, Chico. They've got it.

Kirby, let them go!

Don't be a fool, man!

Come on. We mustn't lose them.

What happened?

He hit me.

Who?

Your friend Kirby.

What?

I caught him and others stealing El Diablo.

Stealing? Why, the dirty...

No, not tuck.

We just saw him with our own eyes.

He's no good, t.J.

Champ, get bean and rowdy.

You bet.

Whoa!

Look here.

Tuck's got company.

We're headed in the right direction.

He's working with the professor.

He was speaking of scientific interests.

Tuck wants El Diablo for buffalo bill.

You should have listened to me.

He's right, t.J.

That tuck is the lowest.

All right, all right.

He was right. I was wrong.

If we stand here, we'll never catch him.

I know where they're heading.

There's a shortcut to forbidden valley.

Help!

Professor, where is that little horse?

I don't know.

You don't know?

Alright, sir Horace, when your king finds out

you're a horse thief, he'll sure give you

a touch of the sword... There!

Tell me where El Diablo is.

You can make it easy or hard on yourself.

The gypsies took him.

You put them up to it!

Yes, in a way, but it will benefit us all.

Now, is that a fact?

El Diablo...

Is the property of t.J. Breckenridge!

I'm protecting her interests.

Well, so am I. Don't you see?

We must follow the gypsy trail

to the forbidden valley

because where there's one Eohippus,

there must be others.

At least two, the sire and the mare,

possibly more.

Just think what you and miss Breckenridge

could do with a dozen Eohippi.

From now on, we're partners?

Oh, no, professor.

As a rule,

I never shake hands with an anxious man.

I'll join you, but no deals.

Senor Kirby!

Hey. Hi there, lope.

Say, what's the price of water around here?

One peso.

To you, half.

Okay.

Fly, little one. Fly home to your master.

This circle of mountains,

jagged peaks, steep cliffs...

Could be the perfect barrier

against man and the elements.

No wonder they call it the forbidden valley.

Yes. Might be the answer to many things.

Like what?

We shall soon see, Mr. Kirby.

We'll camp here

and start out first thing in the morning.

What's that?

Quick! The horses!

Where's Rosita?

Senor Kirby. Professor.

Look.

There's blood all around.

Whoa! Whoa.

Yeah, the gypsies stopped here,

and El Diablo ran off that way.

Senor Kirby! Professor!

Now, how'd they get here?

I was afraid of something like this.

Hey!

Champ, I caught myself a horse thief.

You don't think I had anything to do with that?

Look! The Eohippus!

Easy, easy. Stay.

That's no good.

Let's chase him on horseback.

Go get him.

Hey, you need any help?

Not from you.

Oh!

I've got it!

Take your thieving hands off him.

He's mine.

Whatever you say, t.J.

Tuck Kirby, I could shoot you.

Keep after him, champ!

Hey, we've got him cornered.

The devil we have.

I can see daylight in there.

He must have gone clear through.

That's that, because we're not.

Looks like the end of the road.

Opens into another whole valley through there.

Wide enough for the horses.

Take up the slack easy.

Yeah, yeah. Whoa.

Take her away.

Hyah! Hyah!

OK. That did it.

Come on, boys.

Now, ain't that something?

Man, oh, man.

Hello!

Oh!

Help!

Giddup!

Whoa!

Here, what's this?

I never saw tracks like that.

Hey, champ. Do you see what I see?

Holy..

What's that?

It looks like a plucked ostrich.

Let's get him for the show.

What the...

I'm going to try and find the others.

Right.

It's hideous. It's beautiful.

What kind of bird is it?

No bird. A giant pterodactyl,

a flying reptile.

It's been extinct for over 50 million years.

Then what's it doing here?

Precisely.

What is it doing here?

Where are the others?

Back there.

Let's get out of here!

Gwangi!

Take off, t.J.

Lope is hurt.

Can you ride? Si, senior.

Come on, professor.

I can't go now.

A big lizard's heading this way.

Now get aboard!

Leave me alone, Mr. Kirby. I'm not leaving now.

Come on, tuck!

OK, professor. It's your funeral.

Kerr“

great Scott.

I see what you mean, Mr. Kirby.

Oh, by George.

A Styracosaurus.

Whoa!

Alright, champ. Take a look.

Hyah.

Hey.

Okay up here.

Room for the horses and everything.

Let's get up there.

What about the professor?

Nothing we can do. Just hope he's alive.

Rowdy, you must be plumb loco.

Now what did I do? Come here.

These cartridges are the blanks we use in the show.

No wonder the rifles didn't do any good.

How was I to know?

Hey, forget it.

Here. Maybe we can use these.

Can you cut that into a spear?

I don't take orders from no horse thief.

Now tell me.

Just what do you mean, "horse thief"?

Break it up! That's enough.

We'll settle this later.

No. We'll settle it now. Lope.

It was the professor and the gypsies.

Carlos said you did it.

Carlos.

You never did bring anything but trouble to t.J.

Alright.

Stop it. Where do you think you are? Civilization?

We've got to stick together until we get out of this.

In all my travels, I never saw nothing

like that 2-ton lizard.

If we could just get him back alive.

The only thing I'm getting back alive is me.

That does it.

Why aren't you in the cave?

You want to get yourself killed?

Not anymore.

What's that for?

That's a trap...

In case one of those little lizards

decides to mosey up this way.

A hole in the ground

could swallow me up, too.

Can't tell a friend from an enemy.

Cockeyed female.

Don't they sleep nights?

Come on, come on!

It's gone.

Yeah, temporarily.

Tuck, I've decided. I'm going to sell out.

Great, if we ever get back to Omar.

Not just Omar. The whole show... Lock, stock, and barrel.

That's what you wanted, isn't it?

Well, sure. Sure.

Oh, sound happier.

I don't know, t.J.

I've been on my own so long...

I've been on my own, too.

But not like me. I mean really on my own.

I had to con my way to where I am.

Tuck, I don't care. Don't you understand?

Alright.

Alright, t.J.

I'll tell you.

I've been looking for something all of my life.

Yes.

It took a lot of finding,

but I've finally found it.

The most beautiful,

Goldarnedest ranch you ever saw.

Ranch?

Yeah. In Wyoming.

Don't you see?

We could both sell out, buy the place,

raise lots of cattle and horses.

And kids, maybe?

Yeah.

You... Talking about settling down?

Sure you can make it, tuck?

Well, I won't know till I give it a try,

will I?

Bean! Rowdy! Bring torches!

It worked!

I say up there. Watch your step.

There seems to be a bit of a drop here.

I need some water before we set out.

Be right back.

You shouldn't have let him go alone.

His idea.

Whoa, whoa.

Ho!

Come on!

Hey, rowdy!

The Spears! Get the Spears!

Ha!

Ha!

Heeya!

Ya! Ya!

Get the horses.

Bean, rowdy, saddle up.

Come on, giddup!

Heeya!

Got him!

Look out!

Rowdy, the other side!

Pull on the rope! Come on!

Pull it! Pull that rope!

Go on! Get clear! Get clear!

Pull that rope!

Get clear!

Pull on that rope! Hold him!

Hold him!

Get another rope on him!

Pull on the rope! Hold him!

Another rope should do it!

Hold it steady!

Hold him!

Hold him!

They've got him, professor! They've got him!

Heeya!

Steady now! Steady!

Keep the ropes tight!

Keep them tight!

Come on, professor!

Pull the ropes! Keep them tight!

Alright, clear out! Let go!

Rowdy, come on!

Steady those horses!

We can't get through!

Keep those horses steady!

Champ, Carlos!

We can't get through here!

Go back for the professor!

There's no way through!

There's no way through!

We've got to go back!

Aah!

Aah!

Aah!

Aah!

Aah!

Whoa.

Ha ha ha!

We're going to lug this critter back alive.

T.J., honey, you're going to have

the greatest main attraction that any circus...

What's the matter?

Where's Carlos?

Champ!

Ho!

It is as I foretold.

Gwangi has killed Carlos,

just as he killed his brother Miguel.

Well, how did you know that?

In a dream, I saw It...

The great jaws snapping, the riderless horse.

He was doomed.

So will you be doomed, all of you,

unless the evil one is set free.

Balderdash, my good woman.

Balderdash.

He's no more evil than an alligator.

The only thing that's evil are his jaws.

Spell?

He can cast no spells.

Come on. Let's move out.

Defy the law and perish!

[

in the name of science,

I beg you to think again.

We've got a show to do.

A show?

A show?

It's disgraceful to think of putting

this fabulous creature on display

in a cheap circus.

Gwangi is our property.

He belongs to us all, to scientific research!

Easy, professor.

Do your research

while you follow us on our world tour.

You must be mad, raving mad.

We'll see what the royal society

has to say about this!

What's all this about a world tour?

I've got it all figured out.

We play London, Paris, Madrid, and...

You're forgetting something, aren't you?

Oh, yes. New York.

No. Wyoming. That ranch.

We talked about it, remember?

Yes, but that was before.

T.J., this show was going to be it.

I helped so that all of you could get paid of

from a show that's worth buying.

But now it's worth saving.

We can do the tour, then buy the ranch.

We can't. Not us. Not now.

Same old tuck.

Oh, no. Not the same old tuck,

but a new kind of t.J.,

suddenly all caught up in the world of glitter.

Leave me out. That dreamboat's on the rocks.

As you like.

"As you like"?

Well, that's it.

I guess it is.

Figures.

Well, I'm sorry for you, hon,

because you're heading for a place I just left.

You won't like it much.

Senorita, you must go after Mr. Kirby.

He's a very proud man,

and he'll never come back.

Tuck!

[

back! Back!

Quiet him down! Quiet him down!

I'm doing the best I can!

Back! Back!

Pedro, ready with that fanfare music.

Si, senor.

Stand by, boys.

When that goes up,

you'll get the picture of your lives.

Ladies and gentlemen!

I have the honor

to make the most important announcement of this...

To make the most important announcement

of the era!

What you are about to see

has never been seen before! I repeat!

Has never been seen before by human eyes!

Captured and brought back alive by miss t.J. Breckenridge...

Aah!

Let her rip, boys.

Gwangi the great,

living wonder of the prehistoric era!

Get that curtain down! Can you get it down?

Stop him!

Hey, what's happening! No, you're supposed to play!

Champ, what's happened?

Gwangi's loose!

Well, get some rifles!

Aah!

Aah!

Hey! Hey!

Heeya!

Heeya!

The doors! The doors!

Lope!

Get in there!

Quick! Out the back way!

I'll lock him in!

This door's barred from the inside!

The other is, too!

Ya!

Hiyah!

Hey!

Ha!

Ha!

Come on!

Move!
