- Who will scare the crows away?

- Uh!

- Who will scare the crows away?

Who will scare the crows away?

Who will scare the crows away?

Who will scare the crows away?

Who will scare the crows away?

Who will scare the crows away?

- See you tomorrow.

David.

David!

You open tomorrow, okay?

And remember to lock up this evening.

- Hey handsome, what's up?

So today I went to look for a dress for Panda's party

and I found two, I didn't know which one to choose,

so I got them both.

There was a cool like one that rates.

I swear you should have seen it on me,

but I know you prefer to see me with nothing else, so.

Anyway, I can't wait to meet your friends.

What do you think Linda and Angela will be wearing?

Call me back.

- Hey, asshole, this is your best friend speaking.

You're not planning on not showing up on Friday, are you?

The whole city will be there.

Those losers are playing the Venusta, the Batusta,

or whatever the fuck they're called, I hate them,

but you're coming with me.

Otherwise I'll drag you there by force.

You're just turning into mold in that shitty house.

- It'll be cloudy tomorrow.

David.

David.

- Come back later.

- David, it's me, will you let me in, come on?

- Come in. - Oh.

- Quick.

- Good lad, it's as cold as a witch's tit out there.

- Ah, a little company is more than welcome

this time of the day.

- Boy, it's a strange world.

It's a good job there are people like you in it,

people with a bit of heart left in you.

- Well, you're not so bad yourself,

but thanks anyway, Willy.

- Nobody's safe.

There's people like me and you, special people,

we need to watch our backs.

- Is everything okay, my friend? You look weird today.

- No, no, it's nothing, it's nothing,

just my big old mouth that won't stay shut,

that's all it is.

But you know, there is one thing I'm worried about,

not spending the day sober, and you know what they say?

Shot of the good stuff can deal with that.

- Hm, is that what they say?

I'll follow that advice for sure.

- No, you won't!

You leave that stuff alone, look at yourself.

You're a good looking boy, you've got a stable job

and dozens of girls who wanna drool all over you.

- Yeah, right.

Old fool.

- We'll now talk about one of the most fascinating

points of interest in our city, the Texcoco Rocks.

Testimonies of these ruins can be found in numerous eras,

rock writings and representations that report their presence

in various Mesoamerican civilizations

date back to the pre-Columbian era.

Instead, other examples that are more similar to ours

have elements in common with the oldest ever found

in Southern Peru and could date back

to between 1,000 and 400 BC.

- Hey, I know that shack. - We still to this day,

don't know what their function was.

- You see the old farmhouse?

Absolutely breathtaking.

That's all we have for tonight's edition

of "Witherm Town News," thank you for joining us.

Stay tuned for more updates and stories tomorrow

- I saw it, I saw it. - Joe Cleveland, goodnight.

- I saw some strange things the last time I was there.

Pour me another one.

- Hm-hm.

Spit it out, what did you find?

- I saw...

I saw some dead bodies.

- What are you talking about?

Human bodies?

- Three!

Three putrid rotten skeletons!

- That's incredible. - I swear,

I'm telling you the truth!

- How do you get there?

- Oh no!

Oh no!

That's my favorite place to sleep on a Sunday morning.

Hell, like I wanna see the police arrive here,

their blue sirens and the journalists asking me questions.

Oh no, don't you even think about it.

- Too bad, you know, I, I thought I could drop by

one Sunday morning, perhaps with a, with a friend of mine.

Oh!

- Come on, let's go, sir!

Come on.

- 10-43?

- "I took a step back.

My sneakers sink into the soft ground.

The air was heavy and still.

No one made a sound.

Nothing moved.

Dead, I'm surrounded by death.

I thought.

Morning.

Excuse me, does that gamer work here?

- Sure. Please lay down on the slab, I'll be right with you.

- Why don't you answer the phone?

- Because I have a job.

- Don't change the subject. I know you heard the messages.

- To be honest, Rob, I'm not convinced.

- Listen,

I get it, if you don't want to come,

but at least answer your phone.

I thought you would've gotten over her by now.

Linda's plane landed this morning.

Nine o'clock at my place, we're all gonna be there.

If you wanna show your face.

- David.

Jesus!

Your hands are cold.

- Gosh, you're so delicate.

- If you keep sneaking in like that, I'll take back my keys.

- Don't even think about it, they're mine.

Are you going out?

Ah, yeah.

I'm going to Rob's, Linda came back from South America,

we are going to have a couple of drinks.

- Without inviting me?

- I'm inviting you now if you want to come.

- Okay, but why such a hurry?

- We are late. They're all waiting for us.

- Seriously?

- Please, Steph, not now.

- We've been putting off this appointment for a week.

Maybe I should seek attention from another lover.

- Who knows? Maybe you should.

Tonight, when we get back,

I promise,

that I'll dedicate myself completely to your pleasure.

- Hm, promise?

- I promise.

- Okay, - Wait for me in the kitchen.

I'll grab my things and we can go.

- Okay.

- And out of nowhere, we found those seven

of the Amazon Forest fighting again in the covered terrain

with a boat that refused to start up again.

- And then what happened?

- And then a tribe of tribal natives

kidnapped and sacrificed us to the God

by eating our flesh and drinking our blood.

- Really?

- Really.

- No, you asshole!

- Don't worry, Angie, I went back to study the local tribes.

- But I hear a lot of stories about those places.

- Yeah, and your mother was in an Anita Roth movie.

- In fact, I saw a lot of strange things there.

- Anyway, Panda's having a party on Friday.

Do you wanna come?

- Oh, is David coming too?

- You can ask him yourself.

He's here with his new friend.

- She's a lot more than that.

- His new what?

- Hey guys.

- Can I have one?

You look good.

- Yeah, I'm okay.

You look great too, you've lost weight.

- I can never get used to eating french fries.

- No kidding.

- Stephanie's nice.

- Yeah, she's great.

We are together.

She respects my space and I respect hers.

- That's just what you need.

A girl who could puts up with everything

and just stays in her place.

- Exactly.

And you?

Did you make any overseas friends?

- I had to study a lot.

I don't think that's any of your business.

- Things going well at work.

I have a few new suppliers.

Customers are happy and it pays better.

- Oh, how exciting.

- Do you see what your problem is?

You don't respect others.

You should try to understand that not everyone is ready

to abandon everything and everyone.

- I didn't abandon everyone.

I asked you to come with me.

- To do what, hm?

You had your goals and I had my responsibilities.

What was I supposed to do?

- Come with me.

You could have come with me.

- Hey, guys, come on, it's game time.

Please.

Come on, it'll be fun.

- What games do you have?

- Well, there's Super Quiz. - Uh-uh!

- The Lost Temple. - Hm!

- Will you give it a rest?

- We've played it at least 100 times.

- And so do you have a better idea?

- Well, I've never played it.

- Exactly.

- Guys,

I have another idea.

Did you hear about those bodies

found in the old farmhouse on the hill?

- No.

- Of course you didn't,

you don't even know what day of the week it is.

Of course I heard about it, everybody's talking about it.

- Even my mum was talking about it this morning.

- I was the one who found them.

- No shit? - Really?

- Well, not by chance, Willy told me.

At the beginning, I didn't take him seriously.

- Why didn't you tell me?

- I'm telling you now.

I was taking my usual walk with Lana,

when I approached that old farmhouse

that Willy told me about.

As soon as I entered,

my blood froze.

It didn't have a head.

- David, that's real crazy shit.

- And are you okay now?

- Yeah, I'm fine.

- I really don't understand why you didn't tell me about it.

- Really?

I mean, you following the advice of an old drunk tramp,

found yourself on the set of "Evil Dead"

and it didn't occur to you

to tell your best friend about it?

I hope you're joking.

- Do I look like somebody who's joking?

- What's that?

- I found them there among some candles and strange things.

- And you took them, are you crazy?

If the police find out-

- I don't see how the police could find out.

The case has already been closed

as an attack by a large animal.

- Come on, Linda, let me take a look.

- This stuff is very old.

I've seen this symbology before.

- Really?

- You never learn.

- No, no, wait, I'm not joking this time.

There are many affinities with Mayan,

that I've studied in the last few months.

There are also traces of more recent translations.

Somebody has already worked on this manuscript.

- Guys,

it's a ritual.

I've read it.

Those people, dead bodies,

they were performing a ritual when they were attacked.

- Wow. - How do you know?

- You don't believe all this, do you?

Those people were attacked by a bear or something.

Guys, pieces of paper don't kill people, okay.

- The candles, the symbols, it's all written in there.

- Seriously? Come on, guys.

- We shouldn't joke about these things.

You should give them to the police.

- No chance.

- What do you think?

Shall we do it?

- Do you listen to me when I speak?

- I can't believe this.

- You bet. How does it work?

- Well, we need some candles, some chalk and a small sack.

- This is ridiculous.

- Thank God there's somebody sane here.

- Come on, Linda,

I expected you to be a little more courageous.

- Don't try your mind games on me, you're wasting your time.

I'm not scared at all.

So what happens then?

- Then we all have to repeat a kind of formula together

and offer a part of yourself.

Everything will open.

"Don't disturb the Man in the Fields

or a plague will come upon the Earth."

- That's creepy.

- Well, that all seems clear.

- That's a terrible idea.

That's proof of a crime.

You could be arrested for doing what you did.

- Don't worry, Angie, here it says,

"Fortune, glory, and prosperity."

Please don't scare me.

- You're a couple of idiots.

- Well, it's decided. I'll go get everything.

- Please, Rob.

- Ah, I forgot.

We can't do it here.

It says that you need a house

with a large field in front of it.

- Maybe I just know the place.

- Once the words are said seven times,

everything in the house will open.

The ritual will end when everything that has opened

is once again closed.

- What? It doesn't seem to be-

- Ssh!

Let's start.

- Oh wait.

There's another warning.

It's more writing, I didn't notice it before.

"The curse will end

when only one is left alive."

- Are we going to start?

- Who will scare the crows away?

- Who will scare the crows away?

- Who will scare the crows away?

- Who will scare the crows away?

- Who will scare the crows away?

- Who will scare the crows away?

- Who will scare the crows away?

- Jonathan.

- Guys.

- This isn't fun anymore.

Let's go.

- Ah, just one of the bums that were up there.

- No, he wasn't here before.

- Linda, stop it, you're scaring me.

- What are you doing?

- Don't worry, I'll get him to leave.

- No, David, let's go.

- Hey!

Get out of here!

This is private property!

I'm not kidding.

You can't stay here.

Hey.

Hey.

Oh!

- Go with him.

- Oh!

- Hey, leave him alone, you bastard!

Hey!

- Rob!

- David!

- David!

David!

- David!

David!

Come back here!

- Where are you, David?

- David!

David!

David!

- What?

We have to go to the hospital. You're bleeding.

David.

David.

Are you able to drive? Hey, you can do it, David!

David, that way, the hospital is that way.

- I have to go back there.

- David, why have you brought us back here?

David!

David!

David, where are you?

David?

David!

Please.

Where are you?

David.

What is it?

- Leave!

- Hello, Whiterm Town Station. How can I help you?

- Uh, uh, a girl, she's dead.

- Okay, miss, calm down, calm down.

Where are you?

- At the ruins, the north of the city.

He-he, he tried to....

- Okay, calm down. What's your name?

What's your name?

Miss?

Miss?

- Rush hour traffic, don't you just love it?

- Traffic is backed right up.

There's an accident on the freeway

that hasn't been cleared away yet

and everyone is stopping to look at it.

- So Wake is at the first pitch ground ball.

The third over the second in time and on the first.

Hey, double play!

There's the rally and the headache, three hits, one run,

no men left on base, after three, we're tied at two.

More baseball after these messages.

- The body of Stephanie Sierra,

a 22-year-old student was found this morning

in the hills north of the city.

Her brutally-mangled body suggests

she was attacked by a large animal.

According to the investigators, the girl was in the company

of her boyfriend who is currently missing.

What makes this story even stranger is that the police

discovered three bodies a few days ago

who seemed to have suffered the same attack

and it was in fact, David Russell,

Stephanie Sierra's 25-year-old boyfriend,

who disappeared last night who informed the authorities.

- Dead, found them this morning.

We need to get the goddamn monster that did this, shit.

- Linda, answer me.

Something terrible has happened.

- Angela.

- Stephanie is dead. David's disappeared.

They're talking about it on the TV.

What's going on? - Angela.

Angela, calm down.

You call round here.

- Rob's here with me.

I-I came to him as soon as I heard.

- Good.

Hey, stay there.

Try not to leave the house for any reason. I'll come to you.

- Okay.

- And that's everything.

- So David is dead too?

- If David was there, yeah.

- And it's all real, the ritual.

The wind that blew everything open. The magic formulas.

- All true enough.

I would say so,

but I am crazy to think it.

- No, it can't be real.

- Are you calling me a liar?

Why would I joke about something like this?

Stephanie's dead

and David, our David,

transformed into a monster.

- Stop it!

Please, stop.

- Angela's right.

Two of our friends are dead.

And if we don't do something,

if we don't stick together,

we'll be next.

We have to end it.

- But David didn't die, right?

If we finish the ritual, he might come back to us.

- I looked

into that thing's eyes, Rob.

There's nothing left

of David in there.

- We have to go back there.

- You're right, we have to finish what we started

and clean up this mess before it's too late.

- Angela,

you don't have to come if you don't feel like it.

Me and Rob will go.

- She's right, you should stay here.

We won't be long.

- Sorry, guys.

I can't do it.

- We will close everything in the ritual.

- Yeah, but what about the police?

Stephanie's dead and David's missing.

They'll wanna question us sooner or later.

- The police really are the least of our problems.

- What?

I'm not going to stay here

waiting for him to come and get me

and I don't wanna let you go back to that place alone,

hiding in the house like a baby.

- All clear.

- First of all, we need to get the pages.

- Right, I'll get the pages.

You and Angie go upstairs,

start locking everything up, okay, let's go.

- Please, go!

Angie!

No!

No!

Angie!

- No!

- Angela!

Let me go!

- Come with me if you want to live!

- Who are you?

- Did I not just save your lives?

- Which sort of person comes out of nowhere

holding a shotgun and forces two strangers into his car?

- You're welcome, sweetheart.

- Who the fuck are you?

And where the fuck are we going?

- Calm down, boy. We're going somewhere safe.

Anyway, my name is Jonathan.

- How did you know we were there?

- I didn't know.

I didn't come for you.

- So who did you come for?

So this is where David found them.

- Stay inside. I'll be right back.

- Xipe Totec,

Our Lord the Flayed,

that is his name.

Some legends refer to an agreement

signed between the First Men

and this dark deity to benefit from the earth,

a sinister pact to be paid with blood.

According to myth, Xipe Totec was beautiful,

the God of agriculture and spring.

But his blood lust and contempt for mankind were too great.

So he deceived one of the First Men,

the greatest of them.

I think you met him that night,

The Man in the Fields.

Through him, he bound his power to these pages

in exchange for centuries and centuries

of human sacrifice and famine.

He is an evil from the ancient world,

the purest evil, the original evil.

He's not from this world.

He has been sowing discord and death

since before men built the first cities

and you,

stupid kids,

you don't know what you have awakened,

nor what he's capable of doing!

You gave him a part of you and now he will hunt you down

until only one of you is left alive.

Who was cursed?

Who transformed?

- David.

A friend of ours.

- Poor guy.

- How do you know all this?

- Right where we are now,

a long time ago,

that monster, that abominable creature

killed and slaughtered my entire family.

They were horrible people, sure.

Let's say that Xipe Totec

was not the only monster here that night.

But...

She was innocent.

Since that day, all I wanted to know

was who my enemy was.

In my heart,

there was only anger and pain.

All I could think about was revenge.

- What do we do now?

- Now,

you need to rest.

Tomorrow at the first light of dawn,

we'll finish the ritual.

I'll be on watch all night.

Take this to protect yourself.

When we're gonna be out there with him,

everyone will have to look out for themselves.

Do you know how to use it?

It's very simple.

This is the safety, never take it off.

The magazine is already full.

All you have to do is pull the trigger.

Unfortunately, it will be of little use to you,

but it will be enough to slow him down.

- Rob.

Can we each tell how we feel?

Please,

talk to me.

Don't leave me alone.

I'm so sorry.

- That's not enough.

Your sorry won't bring her back to life.

- What's happened to us is terrible, Rob, I know,

but we have to be strong.

Because I lost David too.

- David.

You lost David a year ago, Linda!

You decided to lose David!

And he was taken from me.

Now I am alone, I am alone like I've never been before!

I just want you to shut up and leave me alone.

Can you do that for me, Linda?

Can you do that for me?

- You, grab your ax and come and chop some wood.

- Hey.

Good to see you.

I'm sorry about earlier.

- No, you don't have to apologize, not anymore.

- I shouldn't have been so hard on you.

- Well,

where is Jonathan?

Uh!

- Just stay put.

- God.

Why?

- Why?

- Why are you doing this?

- Why?

Because Angela didn't have to die!

You should have died!

You were in the damn wardrobe!

It should have, it shouldn't have turned out like this.

She should have run away.

She ran away and came back just to save you!

Your life is worth no more than hers

and it's definitely worth no more than mine!

You could have stayed put.

The curse will end when only one is left alive.

Do you remember that, do you remember?

- Yeah, son of a bitch.

Uh, uh! - We can't kill him, Linda.

We can't kill him.

And I'm not going back to that house

to finish that stupid ritual

over the remains of the girl I love!

All I want to do right now is to go to the goddamn party

and drown in booze

while David finishes the job.

- Rob, you are not alone.

We can do this together. We can make things right!

- There is nothing more we can do!

Do you get it, Linda?

There is nothing more we can do!

Nothing.

And don't mention David's name, you have no right to.

David is gone!

Angela is gone!

And now,

now, you and that asshole

that came out of nowhere

will be gone too.

"Everyone will have to look out for themselves."

Am I right, David, huh?

- Jonathan.

Jonathan.

Jonathan.

We have to get out of here.

Jonathan.

Jonathan, we have to get out of here.

- My car.

Damn!

Where's he to go?

- Not so far from here,

he's going to a friend's house who's having a party.

- Then we have to go.

We have to go.

- Hey, Rob.

- No!

Angie!

- I can't believe this.

- You bastard.

Take the car and finish what you started.

Go!

Face me, you asshole!

Come on!

Come on!

- I lived for 50 years, night and day.

I thought how I was going to slaughter you,

how I was going to rip off your head

and burn it once and for all.

You, you bastard from hell.

She was just a child.

Uh!
