Original subtitles

And you may ask yourself, why can't I see the Lord?

Why doesn't He give me an answer to all my questions?

But you see, the Lord will answer you.

And when He does, you must taste the blood of His Son and the Holy Spirit.

You must feel that your spiritual body

clean from sin, and never let the Antichrist walk by your side.

Let your brother lead your way through life, and together you will see him

rising out of the white light, a light so bright you cannot see

it with your eyes.

So do not let sin

Break the mighty bridge to holiness.

Do not.

Because it will cost you.

And one of you know it quite well.

Doja.

Yes.

I can see your yellow eyes burning from shame.

And that, my evil brother.

Because you have committed the most unbearable crime of all.

He murdered a defenseless old man.

And do you want to know the worst part?

He felt good when he did.

Yes, did you, you creep?

Let me tell you one thing, brother.

If he starts to hold you alive... You won't feel sorry for yourself.

You deserve to be...

Yeah, I'm alright.

Jesus Christ.

Dear Steve, I know we haven't been in contact since you left Sweden with your

parents 20 years ago.

But I'm sure you remember me.

I was your best friend when we were kids.

And if you don't have any strong memories of me, I'm sure you remember

teacher we had in school.

Mr. Anderson.

Mr. George Anderson.

I don't think anyone can forget about him.

He sure made life hell for us every time he got a chance.

I'm also very sure you remember what happened that late night in October when

decided to play a trick on him.

Maybe we were lucky then, that nobody discovered you and I were responsible

that awful fire.

Do you remember how we used to go off together and say to each other that even

if it was terrible, we were glad it was gone forever?

Well, Steve, we're not that lucky anymore.

Mr. Anderson, this is bad.

I'm not crazy, Steve, and I'm telling you the truth.

You'd better come home immediately.

before it's too late.

You've got to believe me when I write this. It's my only hope.

Harry.

Good morning,

Steve. Hi, Harry.

Just want to see if there's anything important for me to know before I leave.

Leave?

Yeah, you're gone now. You're on vacation tomorrow.

Oh, Bermuda, wasn't it?

It was, but I think I go home to Sweden instead.

What's your wife say about it?

I haven't told Linda yet.

You haven't?

Good luck, buddy.

Oh, Steve, uh, Knight Tyler's from the Bone Breakers called, and he's really

pissed at you.

Uh, I don't know what he was pissed about, because I couldn't understand it.

know how he talks that jive when he gets angry.

What kind of bullshit is this?

Sorry, what do you mean?

Well, if you think real hard now, sucker, you just might remember that I

told I could re -record my fender.

But the new record, because the equipment in your soul car studio made

like shit.

Operator?

842. Yeah, that's the number. Excuse me.

Can you connect me, please?

Thanks.

Why do you have to go to Sweden now?

I don't understand it.

I just have to go.

He's my friend and he needs my help.

You haven't seen him since you left Sweden.

And you still call him a friend?

Steve, you could at least tell me why these change of plans are so important

you.

I wish I could.

I really wish I could.

All I can say is, it's not okay.

You mean it's critically ill?

I guess so.

When will he leave?

Well, he wants me to come right now, and... Since there's a

plane leaving tomorrow, I figured... I want to come with you.

With me?

At least we'll go away together.

And after all, Steve, it's a good time for me to see your home country.

But why do you want to go to that small town?

There's nothing for you to do there.

Besides, this time of year, it's always raining. I don't care about the weather.

You know, I remember Eric as kind of a strange guy, and maybe he'd be a bit

embarrassed to meet you.

Why don't you tell it like it is?

You don't want me to come.

Linda. And you don't see that all I want is to be with you sometime, when you're

not working day and night.

Taking those pills to keep you awake.

But I always come in second, don't I?

Please!

Well, you could always bring a picture of me and show it to him.

Or would he be embarrassed to find out that you're married?

In fact, in the letter, he said he's being tortured by a ghost.

What kind of ghost?

Come on, Linda.

Must have gone crazy somewhere, you know? Is that?

That's why I didn't want you to come with me.

Well, he's not going to kill me, is he?

I think ghosts are fascinating.

Maybe in the books you read.

Relaxed.

You know, I read in a novel somewhere that if a ghost haunts someone, it's

because it wants to take revenge on someone.

It's probably just having some kind of drinking problem.

I hope so.

Is that you, Eric?

It's me, Steve.

I hardly recognize your voice.

Go away!

Go away!

There's something wrong. Go away!

Go away!

I think I have to go to him immediately.

Now?

We'll catch a cab, and before I go out there, I'll let you off at the hotel,

okay?

Steve?

So that's the artist, sir.

Yeah. But can you stop at the Thelma Hotel first to let my wife off?

No. Just drive straight to the house.

Now, Linda, I told you I'm going out. You're not going out there by yourself.

I want to know what the hell is going on.

Maybe he's not home right now.

We should let the cab wait for us.

Well, he answered the phone, didn't he?

Eric!

Are you sure this is the right place?

The driver said so. Of course it is.

Looks like he's been hunting in here.

Maybe you were right when you said he could have a drinking problem.

Is that him?

Is that really you, Eric?

Why do you attack me?

Don't you recognize me?

I do now.

Sorry, we scared you.

This is my wife, Linda.

We've been married five years and she kind of thought it would be nice to meet

an old friend of mine.

Maybe... I think you'd like a bath, yeah?

Wouldn't you, darling?

You know, we traveled 24 hours and... Is that okay?

Why don't you take her up?

You remember the place, don't you?

Yeah, I know my way around.

I'll be right back.

And it was nice to see you again, Eric.

Can we turn the lights on out here?

You don't see much in the dark enough.

Well?

I still wonder if this is the right address.

I told you, Linda, what I thought it'd be like.

Please don't argue with me.

Well, are you going to talk to him?

You got any better ideas?

Well, why don't you go down and talk some old memories with him?

Just tell me when we're leaving.

I won't disturb you.

Okay, I... I'll see if I can calm him down.

Take a bath.

It's been a long time, Eric.

Why did you bring her with you?

Look, we haven't met in 20 years, and you haven't said hello yet. I asked you

question.

Right then, I'll tell you, we were on our way to Bermuda when I got this

of yours.

The least I could do was to bring it along.

If you think I invited you on a vacation, you might as well go back to

Bermuda right this minute.

And find you too sometime.

You know what?

You disgust me.

You really are out of your mind.

You think so, Steve?

You really think so?

Well, look at me, God damn it.

Do I look like I'm crazy?

I didn't say that.

Anyone who's crazy, it's you.

When we did that thing, you were so scared you could shit your pants.

But now, just because it's been such a long time ago, you seem to think of it

like it was no more than a gag.

I bet you told your wife all about it.

Of course I haven't told her.

I wouldn't tell anyone.

But when I got this letter, I was afraid you might begin to talk.

Enough!

If you're trying to scare me, you better stop it right now, because we ain't

staying here one more...

I think they did.

Don't you touch her.

What happened, Linda?

Oh, my God.

Will you go down and call for an ambulance?

I don't think that will be necessary.

I don't want any more of this, Eric.

Just get down and do what I tell you.

Now.

Please, darling.

I beg you.

Wake up.

Please, darling.

Look, she's okay.

Since I understood he was back, I haven't dared show myself outside this

I'm sure you can see why.

He can make you see things.

Real bad things.

I remember the first illusion he gave me.

It was in church and I... I don't want to hear about it.

I don't want to.

Just like being real drunk.

We're high on drugs.

You see these horrible things so clear.

You have to concentrate so hard to get the visions away from you.

I think he wants to make us go crazy.

Just as he wanted when we were kids.

Only now he seems to succeed so much better.

I've been having visions for so long now, you might think I've learned how to

look away from them.

But that's the worst part.

It doesn't just make you see things.

It makes you believe in them.

You bastard.

You sound like you think this is funny.

Do I?

So what about Linda?

Transmitted from the bathtub up to the attic.

That's not what I call an illusion.

I'm aware of that.

Maybe it's getting tired of illusions.

If it's so, then from now on, we don't know what's real or not.

How are you feeling?

I'm okay.

Where's Steve?

Be back in a minute.

Do you remember what happened?

What do you mean?

Why do you want to know?

I believe you saw something.

Something that scared you?

Come on.

We heard you screaming.

No! No!

You can't trick me.

You can't trick me.

You can't trick me.

It was burned.

It looked dead.

But it moved.

And you can see him, too.

There?

It said something to me.

It did?

He said you could help him!

How could you?

Linda!

I beg you!

If you want to beg, you kneel! We?

Kneel!

We were kids.

We taught you that in school.

And all we wanted to do was to play a little voice trick.

Just a voice trick.

You think you can play your tricks on me?

Well, suit yourself, you bastard. I'm not going to fall for your illusions

again.

You know, it just might work with someone more easily affected, but not

Cheers, you son of a...

a trick with you, don't you understand?

Please! Please don't do that!

Don't come any closer!

No!

He's playing a trick with you, don't you understand?

So that's what happened.

Why haven't you told me about this?

Steve, I want an answer.

It's a very hard memory for me, and... I didn't see no use in

telling you about it.

That's a great excuse.

Don't bother to tell me I'm married to a killer. I'm no killer, goddammit. Cut

the crap, both of you. Oh, you want to play bullheaded?

You didn't look so tough when you were jumping around up there screaming like a

stuck pig.

You saw him yourself in the bathroom, so you know what tricks he can play.

Or maybe you can tell me how to stop an evil spirit.

Look, we can't sit here arguing.

You got any idea, Steve?

What? How to stop him?

You would know better, wouldn't you?

That house he lived in.

Is it still standing?

Not exactly. Why?

Well, I just thought about a story I read before we left.

It was about a killer who hanged himself in a big apartment building.

And his ghost started to haunt the people that lived there.

And the haunt didn't stop until the whole place was torn down.

But Anderson's house burnt down in the fire.

You know, he owned a very big area out by the coast.

And a couple of years later, they built this factory there, which had to be

stopped because of some pollution scandal.

As far as I know, there's nothing but junk out there now.

Well, was there a cellar?

Maybe there was.

What do you mean?

Well, you could blow it up.

Blow it up?

Well, I couldn't help notice the stuff you keep in here.

Well, it was just a thought.

What do you think I am, a medium or something?

knife and all.

For Christ's sake, be careful.

Don't you see what he's trying to do?

The second time in his life.

But he was over here.

I can't possibly have been.

I can't remember the door. I don't see any knife either.

I have to do something right now.

Don't you see that?

Yeah, like blow his cellar in the air, huh?

It's the most stupid idea I ever heard.

I've been in this longer than you.

And I'll tell you, if we don't do something right now, we'll be sent to a

house, all three of us.

I'll tell you one thing for a fact. I don't go out to that spooky place right

the middle of the night.

Everything looks better in daylight.

We'll have to sleep now.

But in rounds.

I thought you said you didn't want anything.

Just give me the bottle, will you?

I think she had quite a shock, too.

Jesus, Eric.

Do you think we've got one single chance to destroy him?

Why are we laughing?

I don't know.

I think we're going nuts.

Were you expecting someone tonight?

Stay here.

You really want to go down there alone?

Oh, sorry, officer.

I thought it was someone else.

Do you speak English?

No. Oh, well, yes. I mean, yes.

I do.

Well, I'm sorry to bother you at this hour, but you see, we're after a

And he ran off in this direction.

And we're just checking out if you've seen or heard anything.

Sir?

No, I haven't.

But... Uh, no, nothing.

Is there maybe someone else in the house that could help me?

I'm afraid not.

I need a helper.

Well, if you see anything, would you be kind enough to contact us?

Of course.

Just my dog.

Go back into the kitchen.

Nasty little dog.

Officer.

If anything happens, I'll contact you, okay?

I hope you find the son of a bitch.

Close. I tried to stop Linda. She just came down the stairs. What?

Are you okay?

Oh, God.

This is a nightmare.

Where's Steve now?

We'll find him. Come on.

What happened?

Nothing.

Nothing.

Get out of here.

If you want to get out, you have to find another way.

That's it.

I've had it. No, Steve, wait!

Don't!

It's a burglar, Steve.

Nothing but a burglar.

I saw something else.

Sure you did.

Give me that.

I can't take this anymore, Eric.

We haven't got a chance.

Why don't we just... Why don't you just try to calm yourself?

Don't you realize you've got no choice?

If you don't want to fight against it, you might as well go cut your wrists.

Sorry.

Sorry, Steve.

In a couple of hours, the sun will rise.

If we get out to that place, I'm sure there's some way to beat him.

Everything looks better in daylight, huh?

Right.

I won't ask you how you got all this stuff, but there's one thing I want to

know. Yes?

We're fighting a ghost. Why do we need all these weapons?

I mean, what can we use them for?

Let's put it this way.

Would you feel better if we left without them?

Did you see any traces from that thief last night? Sorry, officer, we didn't.

That's funny.

We caught him a couple of hours later and he was totally shocked.

He confessed that he had broken into a house and he told us that somebody tried

to shoot him with a rifle.

Is that so?

As I understood it, he referred to your house, sir.

He did?

Well, look, that's impossible.

You must understand that.

Do you mind if I take a look at your car?

Why? Is there something wrong?

That's what I want to find out.

Oh.

Yeah, sure.

Check it out.

Miss, could you move that blanket, please?

This one?

Why?

Because.

Hold on to yourself now.

Okay,

officer. Take this.

Sorry, officer.

Ha ha.

Do you recognize it, Steve?

This is it.

They started to build something on it.

I think these are remains from his actual house.

What kind of people come out here?

Gangs from all around.

But don't worry. They're only here at night time.

It's not gangs I'm worried about.

So you think the cellar's down there?

Oh, yeah.

All houses built back then had one.

If there's something here, we'll find it.

If there's something there, you'll find it.

I think we've got ourselves some American visitors.

We have a personal reason.

Why don't you come along and meet our boss, and he'll tell you a little about

personal reasons.

Americans. Would you like to say hello to... With this?

Yes.

Do you find it very hard to say hello?

I think you owe me an apology.

That is, of course, if you don't want to lose your tits.

Look at this area, maybe.

You saw something didn't you?

Let's find that cellar.

Go on.

No use.

Never gonna find it.

That's how it is.

This was a stupid idea anyway.

Blow his cellar in the air. What do we that do?

Hey, Eric.

Don't you think we should be a bit careful here?

I mean, it could be dangerous down there.

Bring the dynamite down.

Now?

Should we wait a bit?

Just bring it down, will you?

What are you waiting for?

Linda?

What is it?

Can't get it loose.

Stop that.

You'll tear it off.

It's enough to lie on.

Oh.

How long is it gonna take before it explodes?

About six or seven minutes.

Eric, he's not here.

Calm down, for Christ's sake.

What do you mean?

He's down here. We can't stop the explosion.

You know, this was all your idea.

I demand that you stop it.

Get you for this.

She's not here.

What do you mean? She must be.

She ain't here. We gotta get out.

No wake.

Linda!

Linda!

Think you better hit me real hard this time

Tomorrow.

Here boys, you can beat them.

I couldn't let you play with such dangerous things.

Besides, Stevie, your lovely wife told me that you'd prefer to play with

firecrackers.

So you... You hear that?

Fool us for the last time, you scumbag!

I'll finish you right here and now.

Come on out. Show me your ugly face, you coward.

Steve, get off my back.

I'll deal with him if he just dares to show himself.

Don't you recognize me?

Very sweet.

What have you done to her?

You got yourself a lovely wife, see?

I think I intend to keep her.

But your diamonds come, I'm afraid.

You did this.

You killed her!

I... He's dead!

He's dead!

He's dead!

First they fell off the leaf, and when we came back here at night, they were

chasing that girl all around here.

She screamed something about that it all was an illusion, but it didn't help.

Jesus, officer, what weirdos.

I appreciate your help, but will you please excuse me?

I got lots of work to do.

Something wrong, sir?

I thought I saw her moving.

Well, this was probably an illusion.

Sure it was, sir.

I don't care.

Hi, how are you?

You've been reading one of those books again?

Is it a good one, this one?

Well, I didn't like the ending.

I got something for you that might cheer you up.

You want to go to Sweden this summer?

No way.

No way?

I'd rather stay here with you.

It happened one late October night.

Steve and Eric's little boy's trick turned out in a fire, which killed their

hated school teacher, Mr. Anderson.

But 20 years later, one of them had strange visions.

How could you do such a thing?

Steve. who had moved to Dallas, could only draw one conclusion when he got the

message from his old friend.

Must have gone crazy somewhere, you know?

You're trying to scare me. You better stop it right now. We ain't staying

One more.

That's crazy. It's you.

Back.

Not only was he back from the grave.

He was back with the power of creating horrible illusions.

It doesn't just make you see things.

It makes you believe in them.

Now,

their lives depended on destroying that power.

But how can you kill what's already dead?

Eight. Come on, what is this?

Oh, shit.

It was a monster.

It was a monster. Yeah, yeah.

Hold on to yourself now.

Oh, shit.

What you see can be real.

As you know it.

But it could be an illusion.

Deep down.

Where the last remains of his spirit should be resting.

They search for his soul.

To destroy it.

Let's get this off!

Hurry up!

But could they?

Eric, he's not here.

It's not easy to destroy.

When you don't know what's real.

From Cobra Productions, it will

burn you to the bone.
