Original subtitles

Come away from the window.

It's Bible reading time.

Jesse, what chapter are we on?

I don't know.

Ask junior. He's the smart one.

Mama, that's not a regular wolf howl.

There's something not right out there.

I gotta go check it out.

First Peter, chapter seven, verse five.

That's where we left off last night.

Leave the gun at the door.

Jesus watch over us while we read.

Get the chairs.

Mama?

Do you think something bad's gonna happen tonight?

What makes you say that?

I know you don't like it when I say it, but.

But there's a lot of ghosts pointing and yelling right now.

Do you remember what Pastor Brian said about your ghost?

Yes, sir.

Do we need to go get him so we can exorcise the rest of those

demons out?

No, sir.

Jesse.

Cast your anxiety on him because he cares for you.

Be of sober mind.

Because your adversary, the devil,

he's on the prowl like a roaring lion.

Seeking someone to devour.

It's going to be all right.

I'm going to go scare him off.

Daddy, don't!

Get to the bedroom. Bar the door.

The Lord is my Savior.

I shall not worry.

You're a little one, ain't you?

Oh.

Girl, turn your head.

You don't need to see a grown man's pecker.

You're too young.

Get on over here, boy.

Help your grandpa up off the floor.

We don't have no grandpa, Mister.

Ah.

I said turn your head.

And yeah, you do.

And it's in me I am him.

Oh, boy.

Go get a blanket.

Cover the body.

Your sister don't need to be seeing this.

Neither one of you two get bit.

No, sir.

Good.

I guess I'll be leaving.

Wait. Where are you going?

After what we just seen?

And you proclaiming to be our grandpa and all.

What if more of them things are coming?

Ain't no more of them coming.

That's the last of the pack.

I made sure of it this time.

Can you please just stay?

What'd you say?

I'm sorry.

Uh. Not you, kid.

I'm not talking to you.

I'm talking to voices in my head.

No. No, damn it.

No way.

I'm not taking them with me.

Don't.

Don't you two look at me like I'm damn near crazy either.

I don't think you're crazy, mister.

I can see the ghost talking to you.

She's standing right there.

You can.

You can see the ghost.

What does she look like?

She's an older lady.

Her hair is in a bun and she's talking to you.

But I can't hear what she's saying.

What is she saying to you?

Never you mind what she's saying.

You wake up, I'll be gone.

How are we supposed to take care of ourselves?

Yeah you both look pretty near to adults to me.

So you should be fine.

I'll be leaving in the morning.

Your ghost don't look too happy with you right now.

All right, you know what?

I'll bury the bodies.

You happy?

Guess I'm staying for the night.

I ain't got no choice.

Well, you two go on to bed.

Go on.

Get.

Good night, Mister.

Good night.

Well,

body ain't gonna bury itself, I guess.

Come, lead us in prayer.

I ain't all that good at saying sentimental shit.

Damn it.

Got to watch my mouth.

It's okay we've heard cuss words before.

Daddy used to say them a lot.

Especially when he talked about you.

What did he say about me?

He said you were studying to be a half wit.

You couldn't teach a chicken to cluck.

He was as slow as a crippled turtle.

And he was a selfish son of a bitch

who never showed up on time for anything.

All right,

let's get this done.

Look, I don't like being touched.

I'm sorry. It's just.

Say the damn prayer.

That's enough.

You know what?

I'm leaving.

Jesus H Christ.

I have not agreed to all this bullshit.

I don't like family.

I don't like kids.

And if you haven't figured it out, I really, really, really

don't like family that are kids.

All right, let's do this.

Dear Lord.

I'm sorry Danny and his wife, uh,

whatever her name was, had to die.

Lord, I'm sorry that the world is full of monsters that your

son Lucifer let loose

to kill all the dumb son of a bitches that I really could

care less for.

But, Lord, if you think about it in a certain way.

That's because of the way you raised him, which means this is

kind of your fault.

But due to certain bad decisions, I have decided to

help you out with this mess by killing those monsters.

Anyway, if you could see it fit.

Uh, keep my grandkids safe and keep them fed, because there is

absolutely no way in hell that they are going to come with me.

And I do not care what anyone says.

Amen.

I told you all to quit following me.

I said I ain't going to quit following you.

I find absolutely atrocious how you'd abandoned two kids in the

middle of Cumberland Gap to fend for themselves, especially

after what we seen last night.

You just make that word up.

What word?

Artie, arka Roscius.

Whatever.

Atrocious. It means very, very bad.

It was made in the 16th century and derived from.

An awful big word for young people.

Where'd you get your teaching from, boy?

Mama said that junior has a special gift that he can read

before he was born.

And one summer day, he took us to the Frankfurt Library and he

read the whole dictionary in a week.

All them there books in that library.

And you chose to read the dictionary?

Well, during that time he read three books a day.

I said he was smart.

He can build and fix things too.

Like what?

Daddy's guns and such.

He also built mama, a beautiful music box from scratch.

- Really? - Yeah.

He don't talk much, does he.

No. He kind of just keeps in his own little world.

Think you can fix my pocket watch?

Of course.

All right, kids, we're gonna stop here for the night.

Thank God my butt was starting to hurt.

I ain't doing it for you.

Horses gotta eat.

What's the plan when we get there?

We're gonna scope out the town and talk with the locals.

And you don't tell them we're hunters looking for vampires.

You got that?

Yeah.

People get spooked when you bring up crazy shit.

Remember El Paso?

Oh yeah. On account of it was my first kill.

Damn chupacabras never saw it coming.

It's Chupacabra, you dumb shit.

It's chupacabra. Bra. Not Cappa.

Chupacabra!

Chupacabra! It's the same thing once they're dead!

Well, they run in packs a half a dozen.

And it was your mouth that got us thrown in jail last time.

Two more times folks died that night because of you.

So keep your damn piehole shut

and let me and Rex do all the talking.

Some signs say Rex.

No children are guns allowed in town.

All visitors must check in at the sheriff's office.

Good thing we ain't have no kids.

But if I get lucky at the cathouse tonight, I might just

make me one.

No whoring around on the first night.

You was the one that said to talk with the locals.

And I'm pretty sure a fast

trick can tell a whole lot of stories.

He's got a point, Rex.

I suggest you two start thinking with your big heads

and not your little ones.

Get on your horse, little brother.

Let's go.

Yes.

General store?

Right there.

Y'all head on down to the.

Y'all head on down to the saloon.

I'll be down there in a few minutes.

I'm gonna grab a couple of stogies.

Oh, hey, pick me up for some of

that hard candy, if you don't mind.

What are you, seven years old?

Shut up, Nathan, you dick head.

Looking for something particular, Mister?

I was hoping you had a few

cigars I could purchase from you.

How many?

Uh, three of them.

One for me and my brothers.

You ain't too good at this, are you?

Excuse me.

Selling things.

You ain't too good at it.

I think I've ever been in a general store where the owner

didn't try to sell me more than I need.

I'm just trying to get things stocked up around here.

Help outsiders get what they need to move on.

Sheriff prefers people passing through to leave by sundown.

What makes you think I'm just passing through?

Cause you got a gun on your hip.

Townsfolk don't carry guns around here.

Yeah, I saw those signs rolling into town.

What's your husband think about all this disarmed stuff?

He don't.

I'm a widow.

Oh.

My apologies, ma'am.

It's okay.

It's been several years.

Sorry if I seem unsocial.

He looked a lot like you.

Well.

I don't know if that's a good thing.

I don't think my looks do too well with the womenfolk.

Looks don't matter much if you're strong-willed and can

put in a good day's work.

I reckon so,

if you don't mind me asking,

what happened?

He was the sheriff of Possum Trot when we first met.

Um, one night, him and his

deputy got ambushed by a foreigner.

I always told them both to use wit over confidence, but.

I don't really know what happened, but I was told they

unloaded their guns no farther than you to me.

And this man managed to kill him in a matter of seconds with

his bare hands, I just.

Even Rodney didn't stand a chance, really.

And who's Rodney?

The deputy but, um,

he survived.

By the grace of God.

Where's old Rodney now?

You sure do ask a lot of questions.

Well, looking to settle down in a small town with a fully

stocked general store.

Maybe with a beautiful little widow working there.

Well, he's the town sheriff.

He works his farm during the day,

comes in at night, makes sure the deputies are having

everyone follow his rules.

Hmm.

I ain't never been too good at following the rules.

Neither.

But, um, best not make the sheriff upset.

And I'll tell you what.

You check your guns in with the deputies by sundown, and maybe

you'll see me at the saloon tonight.

Well, then I'd be disarmed.

Well, what if you turn out to be some big, bad, scary monster

or something?

They're scarier monsters lurking

in the shadows than little old me.

All right, well, I'll turn in my guns for a dance.

I don't do much dancing these days.

But you may see me if you do as I've said.

Yes, ma'am.

For a little dance.

Said I'm not dancing.

Friends over there.

You're hankering for a beer, Mister?

I'd appreciate that, good sir.

Y'all done with this bobbery?

We got some business to discuss.

Oh man.

This my brother,

is heaven.

Tippy.

How about a few shots of whiskey?

What do we look for when we're dealing with vampires?

I know they're strong.

They come out at night.

They can fly.

They can't fly, but they are strong.

And I don't want you trying to take on one by yourself.

What about silver bullets?

That's werewolves, you dumb shit.

If you shoot a vampire, you're just going to piss it off.

Look, the only way to kill a vampire,

is by fire sticking a stake through its heart.

There they are, deputy.

I told you they had their pistols on em.

Good job Jeremiah. Now go on home.

I still got my $2 reward, right?

Come by tomorrow.

No need to stand up, gentlemen.

Just saw you rode in.

Just checking to see how long y'all be staying in our

peaceful little town.

Just staying the night, deputy.

State your business.

Bought a little land up in Paducah.

Heading over to Lexington.

Close out a little paperwork.

A lot of traveling.

It's a lot of land.

Well, boys, you can either give me your weapons now, or you can

hang on to them, and the sheriff will deal with you when

he gets back at sundown.

I don't think we'll be getting rid of our guns just yet.

Shots for each of y'all

on the house.

Suit yourselves.

Sheriff's not gonna be as reasonable as I am.

We'll take our chances.

Going once.

Going twice.

Gone.

Hey. So we're not going to take their weapons from them.

- We're just going to. - We wait.

- But the sheriff said. - We wait for the sheriff.

There's something strange about those three.

Gabe, go tell the doc his

services are going to be needed tonight.

Why do I got to do it?

I told you to do it.

Or what?

- Now. - We ain't scared of you.

One.

Nor that goddamn sheriff.

Two.

Well. Yes, sir.

Mr. boss man, your wish is my command.

Closed. Come back tomorrow.

Are you serious, tippy?

You heard me.

Stay clear of alleyways and dark places.

What's their problem?

Why is everyone leaving?

Nate, quit asking that man questions.

We got to prepare for tonight.

The voices told me they're here.

You think the sheriff knows anything about the vampire?

I certainly do.

The lady that owns the general store told me her husband and

the sheriff got attacked by a foreigner last year.

Still lives around the same area.

She said the man dodged 12 bullets at point blank range at

lightning speed.

Ripped her husband's throat out with his bare hands.

Now get this.

The sheriff survived.

That very same attack.

If he knew where the foreigner was, I'm sure he'd done killed

him by now.

Maybe he thought he did.

But you can't kill a vampire by shooting it.

They're smart, like me and you.

I seen one play dead one time.

One almost got old Jack Thomas last year, pretending to be the

town drunk.

Nobody told me vampires wore disguises.

There's some tricky bitches.

Maybe.

Maybe the vampires come back to finish off the sheriff.

Better yet, the vampires in cahoots with the sheriff.

Uh. Are you just weak in the head?

The undead don't make deals with the living.

They eat us, plain and simple.

Hey hey.

Hey hey, yo, pipe down.

Tonight.

Let's just gather information and try find

out where the Crips are tomorrow.

During the day, while they're

asleep, we'll kill those bloodsuckers.

Easier this way.

Sounds good.

Bartender, another round of whiskey.

Get your steaks and your holy water now.

I ain't got mine.

I'll go to the horse and get it.

It's dark outside don't be a yak.

Turd.

Eat. Come on, boy, we got a long way to go tomorrow.

He rarely eats when he's working on things.

It's like he's in his own little world.

What the.

Damn, you fixed it.

What do you like, some kind of magician or something, kid?

I could work on your left hand gun, too.

Oh, you mean the one that keeps misfiring?

I don't think there's anything you can.

I think it's just a spring issue on the pullback causing

the handle not to hit the

bullet properly, causing the misfire.

No.

Eat first, then you can tink around with my gun.

I think I figured it out.

Figured out what?

Why? The werewolf killed Mama and Daddy.

They were looking for you and could smell the bloodline.

Oh, bullshit.

Then why'd all the ghosts look

at you just now when I said that.

You all can stop staring at me right now.

Yes, I know she's smart.

No, I am not going to explain that to her.

Especially to a 14-year-old girl.

15, actually.

15-year-old girl.

I could see them scolding you.

All right.

Sweet jumping Jesus on a hot, coal stove.

I swear.

I didn't kill your grandma.

She was possessed by a demon, and I had to exorcise that

demon out of your grandmother.

Took hours, but none of that shit matters.

When the demon left her, her

poor body couldn't handle the stress.

And she died.

Then what?

And then the townspeople thought I killed her.

So they hung me.

I lived. The end.

You happy?

Get your blankets out.

Gotta get some rest.

We're gonna leave early.

We'll go to go to my place in Texas.

We didn't bring any blankets.

Why in tarnation would you not pack blankets knowing full well

we're going to be traveling cross country, huh?

Mama used to pack everything and Junior needed his tools.

I guess we forgot.

Well, I guess you two are just

shit out of luck, then, aren't you?

Good night.

Damn it.

Here.

Gonna have to share.

Keep the fire burning.

You should stay warm.

Shut up, all of you!

We didn't say anything.

He's not talking to us.

He's talking to the ghost.

You know, maybe if you did what

they said, they'd leave you alone.

I couldn't be that lucky.

Well, when's the sheriff getting here, you think?

Well the sun's gone.

So I imagine any minute.

So what do you think the sheriff's gonna do to your boy?

Depends on his mood.

He'll lock him up,

run him out of town, or kill him.

Well, no shit.

I didn't think he was gonna draw him a fucking bubble bath.

I meant which one of them

things you think he's going to do?

I said it depends on his mood.

Give me that dynamite.

Here.

I got no more matches.

Damn it Timmy!

It's a wonder you're not dead yet.

Here's a match.

Keep your cigar lit.

What the hell?

Get the rifle. Something's going down.

Where the hell's Rex?

I don't know. He was right here, and he vanished.

Do you see anything?

Gunshots blind.

Rex.

Where the hell are you?

Damn it!

Rex!

Put that pistol away and keep

your cigar close to the dynamite.

I'm scared, Nate.

If something happens, you light that dynamite.

You understand me?

I just want to run.

If you run, we're dead.

I think we're dead anyway.

Better dye taking them with us.

Right.

Okay.

Hey, hey.

It's gonna be okay.

I promise.

Rex. Rex.

This vampire's in there.

They just killed my brother.

How do we know they didn't turn you and send you out here to

kill us?

What are you talking about?

We can't risk it.

Got to be shitting me.

Oh.

What?

Go on, get. Get on, get up.

We gotta go.

We got a long way to go.

Back to Texas.

I'm going to Possum Trot.

You mean us?

No, I don't mean us, I mean me.

I've got a mission.

Voices in my head tell me

I got to go there and take care of some business.

Here, I fixed it for you last night.

Boy, you never touch another

man's gun without his permission.

Well, I'll be,

damn near perfect.

What do you say?

What do I say?

Yeah.

What I say is you don't touch another

man's gun without his permission.

But since you did such a good job, then I'm giving you the

permission to touch this one.

But don't go thinking I like you or anything like that.

You are awful useful.

And I certainly like to keep around somebody who's useful

and anybody that's a pain in my ass and ain't no use.

Then I have no problem leaving behind.

Like our daddy.

Get up!

Let's go.

I didn't leave your, daddy.

He thought I killed your grandma?

I woke up one morning.

I found a note, said he was headed to Kentucky and not to

come find him, so I didn't.

So you humored the wants of a 12-year-old boy?

I'm humoring the wants of a 15

year old girl right now, aren't I?

Give me my gun.

Let's get things together.

We got to get on the road.

We got a lot of time and a lot of distance to make up.

Lay off me, woman.

- Ghosts. - Ghosts.

How much longer are we going to put up with this?

Someone needs to tell the sheriff the deal was to keep

our town safe.

Good morning to you too, mayor.

People are talking.

And I don't have time for niceties.

The women are worried.

Sheriff has his ways.

Last night, he was just taking care of the trash.

What about Gabe?

The deal was.

Gabe was a tragic loss.

He knew the risk when he became a lawman.

Were any townspeople hurt?

No.

All the children safe in their bed?

Then the sheriff is abiding by the deal that we all

agreed to when we made him sheriff.

I'm sure when he gets back from his ranch, he'll hold a meeting

and explain everything to everybody.

A meeting tonight, right?

Yes, ma'am.

Now run and tell all the busybodies in the schoolmarms

that we've got it under control.

Come on, woman.

Come on.

Giddy up.

I thought we were a few days ride away.

Sometimes when you're on a mission.

Just get there faster, that's all.

I would head the other way if I were you, mister.

This ain't no place for good Christian folk.

And definitely not no children.

Now, preacher, I'm a man on a mission from God.

And there ain't no turning back now.

That place is Sodom and Gomorrah.

The Lord can't save anyone in that town.

I think the children should come with us.

We're headed to Cumberland Falls.

You can pick them up there when you're done with your business.

No. We're good.

Well, I guess you got your answer, preacher.

I'm gonna say a prayer for you.

Bow your heads and close your eyes.

- Dear heavenly father. - Look I ain't got time for

this bullshit.

Let's go.

We get to town.

I gotta get the right kind of ammunition.

Like what?

Oh, you know, garlic, stakes.

Stuff to kill vampires.

You see the way Becky was looking at Buck at the funeral?

Must be true love.

Cause she don't care that he's a.

A what?

An ugly son of a bitch.

Y'all need to quit squatting on your spurs,

and go over there and talk to

that old fool that just rode into town with children.

We do have a couple of hours before sundown.

You know, vampires and children.

Happy you stay back with the rifles.

And buck let's go check out this fool.

Happy now?

We don't need another incident like last night.

Our citizens are worried.

Well, there seems to be a whole lot of talk when the sheriff's

not around.

And not a peep when he is.

Maybe you should take a

personal meeting with him, Calvin.

Maybe I will.

And go get those folks on their

way before there's another calamity.

Please.

All right, you two, get in there.

Don't go grab handing everything you see.

Just get the necessities.

We'll get the hell out of town.

Yes, sir.

Howdy, partner.

Children.

Just exactly what can I do for you

two deputies to make your lives easier?

Other than go up in their woods

and screaming at a knot on a tree.

I just thought I'd come over here and see how thick your

skull really is.

I'd rethink that if I was you.

We've got a man over there on that porch with the Springfield

aimed at the top of your head.

Bucks not too bad a shot at three feet, either.

Son.

I'd highly recommend you don't go messing with something,

tha ain't got nothing to do with you.

Well, sir.

I'm afraid you broken the law here in Possum Trot.

Really? Exactly what law is that?

Children.

Talking about that there sign on the fence when we rode in.

I read that sign.

That sign said no children after Dark.

We're going to get what we need.

We're going to be out of here long before then.

So just let us do what we got to do.

Well, now you've gone and pointed a gun at a lawman.

All these town folk are going to expect me to do

something about that.

Son.

Let me give you a little bit of advice.

Smart enough, I don't need to tell you.

Dumb enough you're probably not going to listen.

Well, I'm afraid we're.

Drop it, fatty!

Drop it now!

Ah! Good boy.

Did anybody see anything?

Huh?

Yeah. See? Nobody saw anything?

Nothing at all here to see.

You promise to go about your business and leave me to go

about mine.

Then I won't bother you and you won't bother me.

Is that clear?

Yes, yes.

Yes, sir.

Good.

Let me make something clear.

I see any of you come across this road.

I'll shoot first and ask why later.

Understood?

Understood?

Yes, sir.

Good.

Oh!

Hey, fatty!

Come and get your friends.

Come on kids!

Oh, shit.

Don't worry, ma'am, I'll pay for that.

Okay.

And those too. Turd.

Get the stuff we need.

Jessie, head to the window.

Keep an eye out.

Tell me if anybody comes across the street.

I'm gonna need some garlic.

I'm gonna need some wooden sticks.

- And some black powder. - And that too.

I don't have any wooden sticks.

Well, we'll just.

We'll use that crate turd.

Bust that up.

What the hell do you think you're doing, lady?

You know what's going on in this town, and I'm here to save

this town's ass.

You either give me the stuff I need, or you take my money and

you shut the hell up.

Either way, though, I'm going to get what I need.

Yes, she is pretty.

Don't let it go to your head.

Excuse me.

He's talking to the ghost.

Oh! That's crazy.

Look, lady, my parents were

killed by werewolves last night.

My grandfather talks to ghosts,

and we're in a town full of vampires.

Crazy is not even the accurate word here.

Look, don't be going acting all innocent and shit.

Okay? I'm on a mission from God.

Are you a preacher?

Preacher.

I don't think many preachers

end their sentences with "and shit."

God, don't send nice people to kill Lucifer's children.

He sends an old man and two children.

Nice as they may be, y'all are

not prepared for what's in this town.

Only way we could survive was to make a deal propitious.

That's a better word than crazy to describe our situation.

Jesus, Lord almighty, Turd. Just making up words.

You ain't been right since that mule kicked you in the head.

Look, if I help you and they find out I'm dead.

Lady.

You're already on a direct route to hell.

So maybe God's giving you a choice and giving you a chance.

Maybe, just maybe, you make the right one.

Garlic and gunpowder in the back.

Turd! In the back.

Get stuff we need.

Hurry up!

Don't take all day, shithead.

What in tarnation happened?

That old bastard.

Knocked Thaddeus out.

Kicked me in the testicles.

The hell is this?

Whiskey for the pain.

They just left the general store.

I think him and those kids are heading to a saloon.

All right.

Oh, my God.

My head.

Doug, give me another swig of that.

So we're just going to wait on the sheriff.

Sheriff, don't pay me enough for this shit.

Oh.

Don't want to die today.

I'd suggest you get the hell out.

Turd. Come here.

Take his garlic.

Hang it above the doors and the windows.

Use nails. That way it doesn't fall.

When you're done, bring me back those explosive things you were

talking about.

I want you to scatter around six of them, set them about

waist high.

so if I need to shoot them, I can see them.

You got it.

Go to it, boy.

What can I do, grandpa?

Sweetheart, I need you to go to my saddlebag.

Get everything that's in there.

Out. Bring it in here and

scatter it around on that table.

Hurry up okay, we've only got about an hour.

We got a lot to do.

I am expecting to be reimbursed for my loss of business.

We all got kicked out of a saloon.

And I only get one day in town a month.

We're going to have a council meeting tonight.

Someone should have rode out and get the sheriff as soon as

this happened.

Shut up Lucas, the sheriff's already here.

I mean, him and Thaddeus in here making a plan right now.

So you want us to come in behind you?

And I will casually and calmly stroll in like I always do.

And have a conversation.

I'm going to talk to the sheriff myself.

I wouldn't do that if I was you.

He is not in a good mood.

Watch me.

Howdy, mayor.

How may I help you?

Hey, Sheriff.

Everyone's scared about this.

It's all right, Calvin.

I have this under control.

But it's happening more and more.

We're going to get every gunslinger that wants to kill

vampires coming from all corners of the world.

Why don't you give me 20 more minutes with my deputies, and

we will go take care of this little problem.

After that, we can have a town meeting to discuss how we can

fix our town's soiled reputation.

Turd. Got those steaks?

Only had time to make about three.

Ahh, good enough.

Thank you, kid.

Hey, grandpa.

Yeah?

The sheriff and deputies are coming down the road.

Oh, God.

All right, you two, get over here now.

Come on.

I want you all to take a big swig of this.

You hear me?

As much as you can.

Keep going.

We don't drink alcohol.

It's not alcohol. Drink it.

Come on.

I ain't got time.

No. Come on. More.

That tastes like alcohol.

That,

had alcohol in it for years.

I don't drink anymore,

as much.

Did you happen to wash it out when you were done?

You don't wash out alcohol.

You use alcohol to wash other things.

Take this,

Take this.

Get him behind the bar now!

Duck! Hurry up!

I can see the ghost talking to you.

Yeah, I know.

What are they saying?

What are they saying?

Tell me where they are.

Who's coming?

Duck down now.

Yes, sir.

Evening, Sheriff.

Deputy Daggett.

I'm sheriff Hawkins.

With whom do I have the pleasure of speaking?

I'm Dan Remington.

And sheriff,

your town,

has a problem.

And what is that, Mr. Remington?

Your town has vampires.

Well, that is interesting.

Cause I would think that only

children would believe in fairy tales,

and that only an imbecile would believe in the tall tales of

drunken cowboys.

So I'm going to give you one chance to pack up.

And get the hell out of my town.

Well, Sheriff.

I'm not a child,

and I don't believe in the rumors of drunken cowboys.

I believe,

in the big man upstairs.

His message, his word, his law.

And he brought me to your town.

Children are behind the bar.

Please fetch them for me.

I got one pointed at a jar full of black powder and glue, and

the other one at you.

Gum. It's a petroleum-based gum that catches fire to anything

that explodes on.

Turd, get down.

What do you want, Mr. Remington?

What I want, what I need is to kill vampires.

And then me and the children

will would just go on our merry way.

Well, I see you did come prepared.

You got all the cliches.

You got your wooden stakes.

Explosives.

Is that garlic over the door?

Is that so there's only one way in and out?

That's cute.

There's a problem with your plan, though.

What's that?

Never corner something meaner than you.

Get the kids?

Sheriff.

You told me to not let you go near any children.

That's before I found out these hunters were sent by God.

That changes everything.

There are 20 people watching outside.

If you hurt those children,

this deal is off.

Oh!

Oh!

Please don't hurt him.

He's all we have left.

Can't you see?

He can't control himself?

It's a demon inside a human body.

Sheriff.

You okay?

Get me two chairs.

Now, tell me about your God and his army of hunters.

Oh.

Oh, Sheriff.

Go to hell.

Bring me the girl.

Don't.

Sheriff.

Oh, I think Mr. Remington is a reasonable enough man to tell

me what I need to know for the sake of this child.

Don't.

I'm sorry, grandpa.

I swear to God.

If you hurt her.

I'm gonna kill you.

And I'm gonna burn this town to the ground.

I've heard that plenty of times before.

And here I am.

No!

No!

They drank holy water.

You killed us, you dumb son of a bitch!

Wake up, Grandpa. Wake up.

Oh. What's worse,

the ass whipping by the deputies

or you trying to wake me up?

Shh he's sleeping.

Oh.

I reckon we're still alive, I guess. Huh?

How's the sheriff?

He's not happy, but he's still kicking.

Time you reckon it is?

Mhm. They took your watch and all our stuff.

But I'd say it's about 8 a.m..

Oh damn it.

That means we got about ten

hours before the sheriff gets back.

Personally I'd rather hang you right now,

but I guess he's got other plans for you.

Where's Happy with my food?

Ain't no one up cooking.

I sent him to the general store to see

if old Miss Jennifer fixes up something.

Hey, grandpa?

Yeah, sweetheart.

I'm really hungry.

Oh. Don't worry.

We got something for you too, little girl.

We run our town real Christian like.

Yeah, real Christian like.

Do you realize that our crime rate's gone down to zero since

we elected that new sheriff?

Our men and women walk around

without guns because they feel safe.

Now, how many towns can say that?

None. That's how many.

Yeah, I can't mention many

towns making a deal with the devil.

At what cost?

Vampires feed off the blood of the living.

Not as much as you think.

Once, maybe twice a month.

We all donate blood if we have to.

Yeah, I bet you let them feed off of you all.

All for the price of peace and security, right?

The sheriff hasn't hurt anybody in this town.

If he feeds off somebody, he stops before anybody dies.

Deputy!

Deputy, the store's on fire.

Y'all chew the horns off the devil himself.

Hey!

Ms. Damper is running over here screaming something.

Shit! Fire!

Fire!

Quick! We don't have much time.

Your horses are in the stable.

Fire should distract everyone for a bit.

Give me the damn bucket.

You leave out the west side of town.

Yeah. Once you cross Bucks Creek, there's a cabin on the

right side of the road.

You can hide there for a bit.

What's the change of heart, sister?

I have a girl.

Paula.

Sent her to my sisters in

Cincinnati after my husband died.

God save the children.

You don't know how much power he has over these people.

They would die for him.

Will you come with us, please?

It'll be safer for you.

I can't. The sheriff knows where my daughter lives.

Grandpa, we have to help her.

Shit.

All right, I'll go get your girl after I get done here.

You come with us, please.

I need to pack a few belongings, but I can meet you

all at the cabin after sundown.

Okay.

Now you can have to make it look like you.

Grandpa, what the hell?

She asked.

You did not have to hit her that hard.

Well, might have probably wanted to pull it a little bit,

I guess.

No, no, you had to make it look real.

All right, kids, let's get our stuff.

Let's get out of here.

We need to put some distance in this town.

Okay, I got to make a plan.

What are you doing?

- What? - What are you doing?

I'm trying to make a plan.

And that plan requires whiskey.

Every good plan requires whiskey.

Shit.

I'll get these bastards moving.

What happened?

Happy said Miss Jennifer was cooking,

and a grease fire started.

He tried to help, but she just left him.

Jennifer was cooking, not Happy.

That's what he said.

Shit fire.

Come with me.

Get some water.

Miss McFarland.

Are you okay?

Get the doc.

Oh, Lord.

Remington and the kids are gone.

Sheriff's gonna be so damn mad,

he's gonna bite himself.

Help me get her up into the cell.

Round up a posse and let's check the town.

Come on.

You two, get over here.

Set that stuff on the porch.

We'll sort it out.

Make sure there are no surprises.

Get over here and get your back against that wall.

What are we going to do?

I'm a vampire proof.

This cabin.

I'm gonna go back in that town, and I'm gonna kill that

bloodsucking sumbitch.

Damn it.

What's wrong?

I got no place to hide you.

Gonna have to dig a ditch.

Give me that.

Shit!

Poured out all of our holy water.

Yeah, this is plan B.

What was plan A?

Plan A?

Go in the town, burn it to the ground.

Put a bullet right between that bloodsuckers eyes.

That doesn't sound like a plan.

That sounds like a death wish.

Don't agree with her.

A half thought out plan, violently implemented, is

always better than a full

thought out plan when you're dead.

Thank you for telling him that.

Why are you thanking him?

I would think you would want to be on the side of experience.

I'm still alive.

They're dead because two days ago, we lost everything we had

and found out we had a grandfather.

We would like for you to stay in one piece.

Me too.

Even though I hate that you call me Turd.

I don't know why you two want to be around me.

I'm mean as a snake, I can't cook.

And if you continue to hang around with me, you're probably

going to die.

Daddy said that sometimes we do things

because we're Remingtons.

Even if there's not a good answer.

Well.

I guess that makes sense.

Come on.

We got a lot to do before Miss McFarland gets here.

Look.

I know a lot's happened to you two in the last three days,

but I just want to know, are you two okay?

I miss Mama and Daddy.

Sheriff.

There's been a huge misunderstanding.

I don't know why Deputy Daggett has me behind bars.

Because you helped Mr. Remington,

and the children escape.

Sheriff, I can assure you.

Do not,

lie to me Jennifer.

There is no way he could have gotten those keys from off of

that wall.

And your hands reek of garlic.

- The children. - You know damn good and well

I was not going to kill those children.

Happy said you bit the little girl.

To make the old man talk, Jennifer.

How many times have I bitten you?

Children are your weakness.

I was just trying to protect you from yourself.

I cannot believe you did this.

That old man could bring back a hundred more hunters.

We may very well have a goddamn war on our hands.

I'm sorry, Roddy.

I wasn't thinking.

You're my family.

If there was anyone in this town that I could have trusted,

it should have been you.

You scare me.

Do you know who scared me.

Jamie.

Jamie scared me, but I stuck with him through.

Thick and thin.

We risked our lives.

We almost died 20 times over trying to protect this town

before the foreigner came.

You don't have to tell me the story again.

I know it upsets you.

Upsets me!

You know what upsets me?

Is that it's all a lie!

- What are you talking about? - The foreigner.

The foreigner offered us both a deal.

Never grow old. Never grow tired.

But here's the kicker.

I didn't want it.

But, Jamie.

He was tired of risking his life.

He was tired of the close calls.

So we took the deal.

It's not true.

Oh, my God, could you be so blind?

You didn't notice that you only worked at night?

He slept all damn day.

He was never in the sunlight.

Oh, he regretted it cause he was so scared that he was gonna

hurt you and Paula.

And for weeks, he begged me to take his life.

Do you have any idea what that's like?

He begged me to take my best friend's life because of you.

Stop.

I told him.

I told him to change you.

But he refused because he was.

He was so, so obsessed with saving your souls.

Because he and I,

we were damned to hell, right?

We were damned.

But you know, he would go on about, about your, your wedding

vows and and love and honor and bullshit.

And he, he begged me Jennifer,

for, for, for weeks! Until I was sick of his,

his sniveling and his crying!

And I killed him!

I killed Jamie, and I did it for you!

You should have killed me, too.

I am done living by his rules.

And I will save every man and woman in this town if I have to

kill you all to do it.

Turd.

I mean, I'm sorry, Junior.

Please take the horse around the back of the house.

All right. Thank you.

I'm starting to get real worried about Miss McFarland.

She should have been here by now.

Yeah, it's getting a bit concerning.

That's why we're doing all of this.

Sometimes you can't predict what evil's going to do.

Sometimes I think

God picked me because I can think like they do.

You know, there's a difference between you and the monsters.

With you, there's a man underneath that wishes things

would just turn out differently.

Kids.

Get in the house.

What's going on?

We've got company.

There's a lot of ghosts around.

Go on now, get.

Every man with a rifle will ride with Happy.

Except for you, Chuck.

You go home to those grandchildren.

But I'm going.

Don't you think a few of you all should stay here to protect

the town?

I'll be here.

With Sam and Francis, just in case.

Alright, I want all of you all to go get extra ammo.

Be ready to ride out in ten minutes.

Let's go.

Time's a wastin.

This is a fool's errand, Sheriff.

We don't even know which way they rode.

On the third day.

The demon arose from the west,

and his eyes burned with all

the fire of the sun and the sky.

What the hell are you talking about?

It's a poem.

It's a poem the foreigner made me memorize.

I always felt I was the demon in that story.

The rest of it goes.

When the vision meets the sight and the voices hear the sound,

a horn will play on high

and the evil will bow down.

That's just a bunch of gibberish.

Everything the foreigner says is deliberate.

He had me learn that for a reason.

Maybe it's a test.

I'll gather up the rest of the townsfolk, let her know what's

going on before Martha starts all her rumors.

Good idea, Sheriff.

All right.

That's just about far enough.

Sorry, Mr. Remington.

Sheriff sent us to arrange a trade.

Quit wasting my time.

Get to the damn point.

You for Miss MacFarlane.

And her and the children go free.

Yes, sir.

Deal. But,

you got to tell all your boys that are hiding out there with

the rifles.

They got to come in.

I'll ride back into town with you.

I think there's about ten of

you out here surrounding the cabin.

No, sir.

We were alone.

What are you doing?

Proving you're a liar, sir.

Lenny, run!

Which way do you want me to throw this one?

Okay, you made your point.

Well, I got to throw the damn thing.

It's lit.

Woohoo.

Well, now, fatty, you help Miss McFarland down off her horse.

She gets in the cabin with the children.

I'll ride back to town with y'all and the seven other men

that are still out there.

I'm so sorry, Mr. Remington.

It's okay, Miss MacFarlane.

Be all right.

Ain't that right, Deputy Daggett?

Yes, sir.

Drop your pistols and nobody gets hurt.

Die, you sons a bitches!

Get the children.

Boys, I do not miss.

I'm gonna put a bullet between both of your eyes.

Let go of my goddamn kids!

Now!

Get out of here!

I'll bring the old man.

Did you think this holy fire could stop a demon?

All it did was trap you here with me.

You're wrong.

Traps you in here with me.

The sheriff was controlling me.

I would never willingly hurt the children.

I'm so sorry I couldn't save you.

Do me a favor.

There's nothing I can do.

Please.

Find Paula.

Save my daughter.

Deputy, I get the sense you are bringing news that I am not

going to like.

There was a shootout.

Happy died.

A few others.

We got the children.

And Remington?

Jennifer's bringing him.

I doubt that.

Rally everyone in the saloon.

Tie the children up until I can,

assess the situation.

Thaddeus.

Don't let me near the children.

Ever since I have taken on this fool's errand.

You have drove me.

You've taken away my wife.

My boy.

My grandchildren.

I am a tired old man.

And you just keep asking me to

kill these monsters to save mankind.

And let me tell you something, Lord.

These men you want to save, they're worse than the monsters

that I kill.

They rape the children.

They beat their wives.

And I know,

I'm not supposed to judge anyone.

Oh, especially not you,

but, uh, I think you're errant Creation is winning down here.

He's a puppet master.

He kills, he

takes what he wants, and you just.

You just sit there and you let it happen.

I never asked for this responsibility.

Well, I'm begging you.

No, I'm telling you.

I want you to take it away.

I'm done.

Do you hear me?

I'm done.

Hello, Dan.

Who the hell are you?

You know me.

I'm the one who can solve all your problems.

The sheriff send you?

No. I'm here of my own free will.

Well I came when you abandoned God.

You're in my way.

Notice anything?

When I arrived, the voices in your head are gone.

Nice and peaceful, isn't it?

You can finally get some rest.

Just exactly who the hell are you?

With a snap of a finger, I can solve all your problems.

The sheriff will be destroyed,

your grandchildren will be safe,

and the town will even make you sheriff.

So you can live out the rest of your life with a mission.

It all sounds too good to be true.

So just what exactly is the catch?

No catch?

None at all.

Really?

There's always a price to pay.

You abandoned God.

I already got my prize.

I'm merely offering you a little reward.

Just say yes,

and you will be the first person on this earth to have a

one sided deal with the devil.

It's nice as that sounds, devil.

I'm afraid I'm going to have to turn you down.

You do understand

this is a no strings attached deal, right?

What I do know,

is that nothing good comes at an easy cost.

And I don't take from others without putting in my fair

share of sweat or coin.

You just killed your grandchildren and yourself.

You know that.

Well, like my daddy always used to say, it's better to die on

the high ground than to wallow in the shadows of men.

So, devil, you can go fuck yourself.

Oh, damn.

Damn it, doc, that hurt.

If I don't set it right now.

It'll never set right.

Grandpa's gonna be okay.

I mean, when she picked him up, he looked like a rag doll.

I don't know, but we're still alive for a reason.

Bait.

You're my two little worms on a hook.

Miss Luna.

Miss Luna!

Take your women upstairs.

I want you all to remember why this town is so peaceful.

I hear everything.

Every conversation, every whisper.

If Chuck beats his wife,

then I beat Chuck.

And if Petey steals from his neighbor, I make sure that that

property is returned and Petey is punished accordingly.

Isn't that right, Petey?

You don't care about this town.

All you care about is control.

Is that so?

These people are your chickens.

And you, sir, are the wolf in the chicken coop.

Well, that begs the question.

Why would the old man walk his two grandchildren right into

the wolf den?

Because she can see ghosts.

And I can make things people have never seen before.

Jesus, Junior. Shut up.

He wants to know our secrets.

And you're just giving them all away.

Special gifts granted from God himself, huh?

Yeah, it's kind of like parlor tricks compared to the magic

bestowed onto me by Satan himself.

There's nothing magical about you.

You're just a monster.

A monster I may be.

but if I were not in control of myself, I promise you you would

be dead already.

Well, I'm sure Miss McFarland will be dragging his sorry

carcass through that door any minute.

No you don't.

The fact is, it's been an hour since we got to town.

And it's a sign that you've got all these people here that you

know that she failed.

The ghost I see.

They give him all the information he needs to end

your miserable life.

Vision joins the sight.

The voices hear the sound of vision.

There's something strange about him, Thad.

Nah.

He's just a thinker.

He's got a poem stuck in his head or something.

Vision joins the sight. The voices hear the sound.

He sees visions.

He sees visions to make things. She sees ghosts.

The old man hears voices. What is the sound?

What is the sound?

It's about a mile out of town, Sheriff.

But he's sure taking his sweet time.

Doc.

If you ever question my mental state again,

I will rip your goddamn throat out and we will find ourselves

in irregular.

I was just trying to do my job.

It's all right.

You're going home now.

I doubt we'll be needing you, but be ready just in case.

Doc.

Thank you for all your hard work. I can,

I can barely smell the blood.

Tippy.

Do you have pen and paper?

Well, yes, sir, I sure do.

Petey.

Take this letter to my brother in Ohio.

The address is on the back.

Sure. Can I get a whiskey.

Now, Petey.

If you go in there,

you're gonna die.

Probably.

Men, take your positions.

Dear Lord.

It's Dan Remington.

Sir,

I don't ask for much help, as I like to take care of my

problems on my own.

But, uh, Lord, I think I've made a big mistake and I'm in

over my head.

In fact, I'm probably about to be killed.

But Lord, I got to save my grandchildren.

Even if I die trying.

I know you and me ain't seen eye to eye all the time, but I

was just wondering if maybe you would see fit to forgive me.

And, uh,

if you're not too busy, maybe lend a hand.

I think grandpa's coming.

How do you know?

I'm seeing a mess of ghosts right now.

More than I ever have. Hold my hand.

Things are about to get interesting.

I, Dan Remington.

Uh.

I'll stop cussing and drinking and, uh, I'll go to church on

Sunday like I'm supposed to.

Well, thank you for listening, God.

And, uh, I'm sorry to bother you.

Um, that's pretty much all I

got, so I'm going to get going now.

Amen.

Mr. Remington is saying his final prayers to his God.

Do not fire until you are fired upon.

Come on in, Mr. Remington.

Just want to have a conversation.

I promise not to hurt your grandchildren.

You know what they say.

Never approach a bull from the

front, or a horse from the rear.

Or a fool from any direction.

You ever get tired of just hearing your lips flapping?

I can't move.

How are you doing this?

Pretty incredible what you can accomplish when you get a

little help from the big man upstairs, huh?

Oh, wow.

It's controlled by the evil one.

But when you see him, tell him I got a size 12 boot to stick

way up his,

rear end.

Why did you let me live?

In a moment of weakness, you decided to be brave and be a

good man.

I don't deserve to live.

Not after I turned a blind eye to everyone in this town.

There are no shortcuts to being a good man.

What if I fail?

Well.

Then I guess you're going to

have to answer to the big man upstairs.

I'm glad you guys are safe.

How'd you get out of the ropes?

Junior made some doodads to get us out.

Really?

Good for you.

Hey, and thank you for making those knuckle dusters, junior.

I appreciate it.

You didn't call me Turd.

No, I think, kid, that you have graduated to Junior or, uh,

John or,

Johnny.

What do you like?

Johnny sounds nice.

Well, that's what I used to call your daddy, you know?

So, uh, it's Johnny.

Thank you for saving us.

Sweetheart, that's what Remingtons do.

Grandpa I have something I want to show you.

Jesse, I don't like holding hands.

We learned that if we hold hands, we share each other's

special abilities.

Hold my hand.

You can see grandma again.

Hi, beautiful.

I never thought I would see you again.

You did a great job saving our grandkids.

I think they got a little bit more to learn from you.

You mean from us?

No. I'm sorry, my dear Daniel.

It seems my time down here is over now that I got you on the

right track.

I just,

I miss you so much.

It's not your fault.

Remember that.

You saved me.

He always saved me.

I tried, I really,

really tried.

Well, now it's time for you to save the world with the help of

your grandkids.

Train them to take your place.

Teach them to fight the good fight.

And you, young lady, you need to keep these boys in line.

But you've got your daddy's heart, which he got from me.

Yes, ma'am.

What would I do if they get out of line?

Well, you just remind them that I'm looking down on them, and

they do not want me to come back down here.

Well, maybe once in a while.

We'd like you to come back.

Oh, you're so handsome.

I bet you're going to have all the women chasing after you.

Why would I want that?

You will one day knowing you got a little bit of your

grandpa in you.

Grandpa used to smooth the ladies?

Yeah.

What's so hard to believe about that.

Huh?

Nothing, grandpa.

See you around, cowboy.

See you around, beautiful.

What's next?

Well.

I guess we'll go to Cincinnati.

More monsters to kill.

No.

This time I think we're going to go save someone.

Save someone?

I thought we only killed bad things.

Yeah, but grandma always used to say that change was

important to life, family and friends.

But I don't know, I think she

just quoting a Bible verse or something.

No, that one was 100% grandma.

Probably right.

Sounds good.

How did you meet grandma?

Well, Johnny, that's a long and wonderful story.
