All language subtitles for Knights (1993)

It was another age,
another place.

Here, time had long
emptied the world,

and in its wake
came the cyborgs.

Mystical, powerful, invincible.

And we humans had become
the victims of their hunger.

I first encountered the
cyborgs when I was child.

My family was traveling with a group
of farmers in search of a new future.

Put down your weapons, humans.

And I promise you
a quick and painless death.

Escape is helpless.

You are surrounded.

We do not wish you violence.
Only what we need to replenish our engines.

The rest of you are welcome to
join the army we are raising.

We are poor farmers.

We've got nothing you want.

You are rich in what we seek.

Nea!

Do not force us to spill the riches.

Lay down your arms and your lives
so that your children might live.

Take your brother and run.
When I say.

- But...
- Do it, don't argue.

I don't want to leave you.

Please, Nea.

Save yourself and your brother.

Your father and I will
be all right once you're safe.

Go!

How can I trust you?

I may be a lot of things,
but I'm not a liar.

There is honor in this universe.

- They say you are the devil.
- Devil?

I am the prophet,
farmer, of things to come.

All you bring is death.

Death... is the future.

Lay down your weapons
or your children die first.

I want to join the
army you're gathering.

I'm not one of these farmers.

Just traveling with
them until I found you.

Then help me gather up these
pumpkin heads.

Without killing them.

Gather the blood.

With the death of my
mother and father,

I was left to wander alone

across the desolate land...

KNIGHTS

Ten years later.

I was living along with a
small group of farmers.

When one night there
came some startling news.

Together!

I'd heard from a
traveler that a village

in the high mountains has
been devastated by demons.

- People were captured.
- Roamers.

They're nothing but roamers.

I have heard of such
attacks at the villages.

If it is true,

then who and where
are these marauders?

They are demons.

I don't believe it.

I saw them once, many years ago.

Yes.
They're demons.

I ain't gonna believe this.

Nea!
Nea!

The danger is near.

- How do you know?
- I know many things.

Things I can feel.

You are destined for.
Great things.

Within your heart,
all dreams are possible.

You're crazy, old woman!

Oh, Yes!

Yes.

Nea!

They are coming...

Here the master builder,
my children.

We are only 20 now,
but soon we will be hundreds.

For our triumph to come to pass.

We need the blood
of 10,000 humans.

The city of Taos possesses
such a population.

March to Taos with your human
army and gather a blood.

You have till the equinox
to accomplish the task.

Or our efforts will
have been in vain.

March to Taos.
Capture the humans.

Harvest their blood.

To mort on Taos.

How would you describe this?

Precious.

But you do feel it?

I've learned to experience.

Then we've gone beyond our
programming, haven't we?

It's a stirring.

- Are we alive?
- Are we alive?

I'm not sure.

You better get out of here.

Be careful.

- I don't think I want to die.
- Ever! Ever!

- Curious.
- No. I was just trying to cool you.

When I say
cool me, cool me.

Let my friend
go, vampire.

Children.

Take him and go.

You're not going to suck
the blood out of my body.

Not today.

I'm going to reward
you for your courage.

I like your moxie.

There one thousand angry
humans here who hate us,

- Our entire army.
- They don't know how to hurt us.

They don't know.

There is that rumor that someone's
figured out how to terminate cyborgs.

Terminate us?
That would be an experience.

Take your humans and capture
the smaller village in the mesa.

I'll take the rest of our company

and capture the larger
village in the canyon below.

And listen carefully,
my human soldier.

The people who dwell in the
village are only good to me alive.

I need their living blood.
You understand?

Capture them and
make them our slaves.

Surrender your weapons
and you will all live.

You humans are betraying your
own by helping the cyborgs.

Better to be a soldier
cyborg than a cyborg slave.

- Or worse.
- Son of a bitch!

You were supposed to
take the villagers alive.

Now look at this.

They were only good to
me as living souls.

Dead, their blood is useless.

Sir, there's still one alive here.

At least enough for you to feed on.

Step out, girl.
Don't make me come in after you.

Witch!

Sorry.

The regiment in the other village has
begun their march to join Job.

Gather what you will
and leave immediately.

Forgiveness. Forgiveness.
Please forgive us.

This is senseless killing.

You are brave.

Ow!

Today I need you.

It's been two
weeks since I fed.

The color of my blood.

The synthetics beneath my flesh,
they intrigue you.

Demon.

No, no, no.
Something far worse.

Cyborgs.

It see?
You ruined the world.

You didn't need
our help for that.

But I'm so hungry, girl.

My power source needs
to be replenished.

Come here. Come here.
And you'll go without pain.

That's far enough.

Who are you?
What do you want?

- You'll find out soon enough.
- This place isn't safe for you.

- It will be safe in a moment.
- A wise guy.

Wise enough to know all
of you have to die.

- You can try and die.
- That's all anyone can do, isn't it?

But I might spare you and your friends if
you tell me what I need to know.

- Just tell me where the cyborg is and live.
- You don't scare me.

I'm looking for the one called Simon.
He leads you, right?

- Where is Simon?
- I'm here.

Welcome!

So the rumors are true.

You really do exist.

- I've interrupted your lunch.
- No, only briefly.

- What are you called?
- Gabriel.

Gabriel...

After the archangel?

After the man who
created you and me.

So, the creator still lives?

Well, when I'm done with you, I'll have
to go back to Genesis and finish him.

- Wasting your time.
- And how is that?

Creator is dead.

Well... Too bad!

You'll be joining
him soon enough.

You have been programmed with
a lot of confidence chips.

- Statement of fact.
- Nice catch.

You are no match for me.

That's what the others said.

Let me ask you something.

How long are you built to run?
When does your internal fuel run out?

I have one year.

More than enough time to
accomplish my directive.

Which is?

Terminate you, Job, and
all the other cyborgs.

You see, unlike yourself,
we have become immortal now.

Our benefactor found the way of
blood for us when we ran out of fuel.

Run would be over now,

but the quality level is erratic,
spoiling in a matter of hours.

And only human blood will do so.
It's a lot of bother.

Well, your collecting
days are over, Simon.

Your mount of long
confident is exclusive.

But my hallo attack is quite dizzly.

As you can see.

- Who taught you to duel?
- It's all in the program.

Is my chabon offensive
in your disk drive?

I didn't think so.

Yeah, the cry me an attack.

I hate to cheat.

Worry not, Gabriel.

Simply allow me to reload an arrow
dart and I'll end your foolish quest.

You have put up quite
an interesting fight,

but I really must be moving on.

Stay out of this, girl.

I could really, really hurt you.

Now. Where do you plan
to stick that thing?

Stupid human.

Why risk your life
for a cyborg?

He won't help you.
I know these things. Ouch. Damn.

Stay where you stand.

Let the girl go, Simon.

Right.
In a moment.

Where did you get the material
and the tools to build that eye.

I didn't think anything existed in this
world to do that kind of work.

You'd be amazed at what the
master builder has created.

Master builder?

Is that what job calls himself?

Ah, Damn!
Fucking thing.

Here.
Let me help you.

No, no!
Stay where you are.

Oh no!
I'm on fire now.

Yeah! Great!

It it's one of Simon's humans.

He brings us another confirmed
report of a termination.

That's six in the last month.

And simple Simon.
Is he online?

His system's motor has been
deactivated, according to the soldier.

He was lasting
250 km upriver.

The killer could still
be in the quadrant.

Black day. Black day.

Matthew,
you two go with him.

I'm concerned about this killer.

Shouldn't we handle
this in force now?

80,000 units of blood
before the first equinox,

and we're halfway there.

10,000 humans do we need,

and 10,000 humans
do we have in Taos.

Boy?

How does it that one
of ours is killed

and you are here alive
and on his horse?

- I was lucky.
- Lucky as a pig in shit.

I'll take you as far as Mesa.

- Who are you?
- My name's Gabriel.

You're a cyborg?

Like the one you killed?

I'm a cyborg,
but not like the others.

They were altered.

A long time ago the cyborg units
were to be government assassins.

Their sole purpose was to kill.

My creator thought he could
alter their old world programs.

- Your creator made a terrible mistake.
- Yes, he did.

But his intention was good.

- It's not over yet, is it?
- What do you mean?

As long as I exist,
I can correct the problem.

- Carry out the creator's design.
- Yeah. One against 50.

One girl against
abandoned marauders.

I paid dearly for that.

- So did they.
- Ah!

How bad is it?

The healing's gonna
take some time.

- How long?
- Weeks.

Oh, damn it!

You rest here.
You'll heal soon enough.

- I'll leave food and water.
- You're leaving to stop Job?

- Yes.
- He's headeding for Taos.

How do you know
where Job's headed?

I heard a human speak of it.

Job's arm is five weeks
away from Taos.

And with my shortcut,
you could just beat him there.

- Tell me the shortcut.
- Uh, first a deal.

What kind of deal?

You teach me everything
you know about fighting.

About how to kill cyborgs.

Why do you want to
know how to kill cyborgs?

It's my job, remember?

I have my reasons.

Do we have a deal?

You can't do what I do.

Because I'm a girl?

Because you are human.

Look, you owe me your life and
I can take you there in time.

Please. I won't slow
you down. I promise.

Don't leave me here alone.

We will march, and march, and
march until we reached house.

Drive hard.
My humans

During the month we have I can
teach the basic offenses and defenses.

You have quickness
and an intuitive sense.

We can use this to
your advantage.

This is all that's left of Simon.

Notice the kill strike
to the forehead.

There's a remnant of a trail
to the west of the river.

It's about a month old, judging
by the depth of the prince,

and I'd say the killer
is the cyborg himself.

It makes sense, doesn't it?
To kill us, he must be metal.

Collect all his metal.

Let's finish off this assassin quickly.
Then return to job in the army.

I don't wish to miss
the attack on Taos.

He's out there somewhere.

Let's feed!

Then we will hunt
this killer down.

What were you doing at
that squatters camp?

I joined them back at the
Anazozi junction as a scout.

Well, they must have
been pretty desperate,

to hire you as a scout.
As green as you are.

How do you kill cyborgs?
What's the secret?

There's no secret.

Then how is it done?

No human has managed
as far as I know.

In time.

When do we start?

As soon as you throw,
we'll continue the journey.

No, I mean about my training.
We do have a deal, don't we?

Don't you want to give your
injuries a few more days?

No, I want to be devastating
when we get there.

Devastating?
It's only a month's ride to Taos.

Let's get started then.

I intend to get my deals without
of you in the time we have.

And don't think because
I'm a girl I can't do it.

Never.

Come.
Come on!

Drive the humans!
I want be in Taos.

Before the next full moon.

I've shown you the
crimean attack, now use it.

Try to stop my Mont Blanc offensive.

Counterattack.

You getting better.

- Do I have a choice?
- Not really...

What's wrong?

I was just thinking
about my brother.

I left him at a settlement with
a family about eight seasons past.

I know I did the wrong thing.

You were a child.

You did the best
you could do.

But I went back not long ago.

Job destroyed the settlement.

Your brother was killed.

I didn't find his body.

I imagined he's dead.

So that's why you're so
desperate to be ready.

Revenge is such a
terrible human trait.

And what are you?

I'm order.

Acamp fire is five days old.

Who could the other one be?

We'll find out soon enough.

Rely on your instincts.
Use your quickness.

Come on, attack.
Attack!

That's cheating.

You escaped.

How can there be cheating
in matters of life and death?

There is no such thing in a real fight.

Always be ready
for the unexpected.

What you be this?

Remember...

Everything's got a weak
point that you can exploit.

And an cyborg's is here.

The right blow can
deactivate our systems.

- Do you sleep?
- No.

Then you don't dream either?

No.

What are you staring at?

You.

I know.
I've had a rough.

How's that?

With all the fighting
and all these scars.

- You're beautiful.
- Really?

The boys at the camps,
they haven't thought so.

That's because
they're boys, not men.

Don't worry, Nea.

You're going to
have your pick.

Gabriel, what makes you so
different from other cyborgs?

I believe my creator made me
what he would have been.

And he built me out of what he had.

I'm made of spare parts.

Who was the creator?
Where did he come from?

I don't have any information.

What happened to him?

I sensed there was treachery.
He was betrayed...

and the cyborgs turned on him.

Taos is near.

It's obvious that's where the cyborg
killer and his girl are headed.

What does the campfire
tell us, Michael?

We're not far behind.

We'll ride on the river pass.

They'll have to travel
that way to reach Taos.

That's where the chase ends.

How's the leg?

Pretty good.

We're done.

Done? But...

There's no more time.

You said Taos is just another day ride,
and I have a mission to complete.

Gabriel...

You are programmed to kill them
on Job and the others.

- But then what?
- What do you mean?

I mean, after you kill them,
what do you do then?

You don't know, do you?

That's when you're really
going to need me.

I can help you find
what comes next.

I'm sure a secondary
program will lock into place.

You're a robot, right?

Can you feel anything,
you know, like pain?

My damage control sensors
activate when I'm damaged.

Aha. See that?
I can be your sensors.

I can teach you
to be more human.

Why would I want to be human?

Because you want
a life, don't you?

I'm a cyborg, Nea.
I'm not alive.

I'm just a machine that's
in the active mode.

In a year's time,
my duration ends.

No!

Look, I know we can find a
way for you to live longer.

You can, can you?

Yes. You don't
want to die, do you?

Dying means nothing to me.

Because I'm not alive.

I look lifelike. I might act lifelike,
but I'm really just a machine.

No, you're not just a machine.

- Stop saying that.
- I don't mind being a machine.

Stop it!

It's time for me to do what
I was created to accomplish.

What happens after
that does not concern me.

No!

Nea!

Nea...

Nea!

Nea...

Gabriel!

Nea!

The arrow must hit the
primary power reactor.

What luck!

You missed
my kill zone, girl.

We were heading to Taos
with the remains of Gabriel.

You humans, bring along
the slaves and the girl.

Okay, everybody up.
We're moving on.

- We got to get you the towels.
- You're a pretty one..

Too bad you have to die.

You heard him.

Hey!

Maybe we could
have a little fun.

You want a little fun
before we march?

Well, how about a kiss first?

Here it is.

- Someday I'll have to pay you for this.
- Go!

The cyborg killer is dead.

However, we lost two
more of us in the process.

There will be legions
when we reach Taos.

I'm hungry.

The master builder's coming.

He's coming here?

He wants to supervise.

So where do we march on Taos?

Ah, Sundown.

Scouts are in position.

Get the layer of the town.

Look!

Take that garbage to my tent.

Bring it over here.
It's around the back.

Gather, my babies!

You gather,
but hear my words.

I'm the prophet and
I bring you the light.

Tonight we attacked Taos.

And after tonight, we march
across this breathing world

and put into sword and fire.

And everything
that exists is ours.

Humans like that kind
of talk, don't you?

Don't you?

We celebrate the coming battle
with a spilling of blood.

Today I prove myself
worthy to be one of you.

One of the twenty.

Come on, boy.
Let's see your measure.

How about me?

Let them fight!

Let them fight...

Job. That's the human
I was telling you about.

Gabriel's girl.

Don't play with this girl.
You haven't seen her.

She's dangerous.

She knows much about us.

Enough.
You ruined my appetite.

If I win, you let the
boy and his sister go.

If you win...

Matthew, make her ready.

I am telling you,
it's a mistake.

Life is a mistake, David.
Do it.

Don't do this.

You're not a soldier.
So what are you doing here in camp?

- Give it a rest, boy.
- Are you from Taos?

Are you some kind of spy?

What are you,
some kind of inquisitor?

I'm an orphan.

Unfortunately I was
caught by those vampires.

But smart enough to get himself
Job so he won't lose his blood.

Oh! A survivor.

Yeah! What about you?

I'm not from Taos.

Then why are you here?

I'm here to kill Job
and the other cyborgs.

You? A cyborg killer?

No way!

We heard the assassin was dead.

- Do I look dead?
- No.

I'm going to be a reckless
warrior like you.

To kill cyborgs.

You know that tent where they
keep all the private things?

The robot tent. Sure.

When I kill Ty, I'm going
to run to the tower.

Be nearby.
Point that tent out to me.

That's it?
Don't you want me to fight?

I am quite devastated.

Do this for me.
You'll be devastating enough.

You'll take me with you and train me
to be a cyborg killer like you.

- First things first, boy.
- Chance. That's what I'm called.

How do you feel, girl?

Are you ready for this?

Hold!

Easy, girl.

You may enjoy this.

Ty. Begin the fight
and kill the slave.

Come on Job!

Who wants to take me on?

What's that commotion outside?

- Sounds like you're under attack.
- It's that little girl of yours.

Really?

She actually believes
she could pull this off?

She always said she could do the
job, even if she was a female.

You're all right now.
Come on.

Come on!

Jump.
You can make it, jump.

Cowardly human.

Thank you.
You were great!

It was nothing.

- What's it?
- Duck!

You wait here.

You broke my heart.

What kind of woman
fights like a warrior?

What kind of woman?

What woman trying
to be a warrior?

You will gonna die!

That's one murderer right here.
It's me.

You know, girl...

I underestimated you.

But that's easy
to do with humans.

My men have lost
confidence in me. Yeah.

And I have to win them back.
Yeah.

I'll have to kill you to do that.

- Use the moon black offensive.
- Gabriel!

When the crimean
attack was a wiser choice.

Get out.
Save yourself!

Forget it!

Give me a blade.

Look.
Still got one good arm.

- Let's go.
- This is strange.

We've got a problem?

No. No problem.

Okay.
Who dies first?

You will die, girl.

You're pretty good for
someone with no body.

- Put me down next to this cyborg.
- Okay.

I'll prepare myself
using this housing.

Boy... I could use you
against this girl.

She saved Taos this day.

But there'll be another time.
And then you will be of use to me.

Help!

It's clever work.

We do what we can.

I could have taken him.

Yeah, but why show off?

Help!
They've taken the boy.

He's been kidnapped!

Help him, please!
Help him!

They're heading
for the high cliffs.

Go on, Nea!

I don't have time
for you right now.

Black day.
Black day.

You, your brother and I
will be waiting for you.

Cyborg City.

It's not over for you, Gabriel.

We weren't the only ones.

There are more.

Hundreds more.

The master builder
has built an army.

They'll roam across the face of
the planet like a tidal wave.

It coming...

Master builder?
Where can I find him?

He was just here.

You missed it.

Let me die my death.

I never experienced
the pain of birth.

There you are.

Wrap me in your wings
like a black parrot.

Take me with you.

These people need you.

- Look. You are part of the future now.
- I hope I'm part of the past.

You sound like a leader.

How can I be a leader when
I don't can help my own brother

The master builder has him.

Well, God help him.

God help the master
builder when I find him.

That's what I meant.
Come on!

The search for my brother would eventually
lead us across time and space.

Far from beyond the
cyborgs City was Genesis.

And finally the edges
of the universe.

But before that

there will be many
more battles,

and many glorious adventures...
