Hmm.

You always bring your man when you go
hunting?

That's worth a small fortune.

Not something I'd leave in the car.

I'm a man of business.

All right.

Let's keep going.

Don't!

You've distracted me.

Slow season for dogs.

Who gives a fuck what season it is?

We have to track her.

Well, without dogs?

We just have to follow the blood trail.

Yeah, and by the time we get there, we'd
be pumped full of adrenaline.

Only good for dog food.

In any case, I'm in fucking pain, all
right? You're not the only one who's in

pain.

Oh. Okay.

Do what you gotta do.

You know how to use this?

What the hell were you thinking?

Fuck you, Leo.

You're a deep shit.

The hunt is over.

Let's go.

One of the other guys found him.

Colette found it way back.

Heart attack.

What's the first rule?

I... What's the first rule?

To find safety. Get the fuck out of
here.

But he's... I don't even bother coming
back.

You still owe me.

Forget it.

Thanks.

I need that money.

I've rights, you know?

Don't give me that crap.

This was your last day the hunting guide

On the way to the airport for Monday,
are we going to find any record of

insurance in your file?

Please call us back as soon as you get
this message. Thank you.

But I have the money now.

I know that I will have to cover the
cost. But that's the reason I'm calling.

Hello?

Hello?

Are you okay?

Can you get up?

It's okay.

You're safe.

You're safe.

We need to leave.

There's nobody in the village matching
your description.

It could have been someone from out of
town.

You don't get that many strangers around
here.

I'm here?

Yeah. Why is that?

I'm lost.

Exactly.

You're not going anywhere in this
tonight.

And, uh...

The forest workers won't be here until
Monday to get that thing out of the way.

I can't wait until Monday.

Well, you could take the old train.

That'd be about your only other option.

Unless you want to disappear into thin
air like your mysterious friend.

I'm not crazy.

Anyway, that woman, she still has my
jacket.

Oh, yeah?

What about the one you're wearing?

This is a different jacket.

What about these?

Would you even be popping pills and
driving at the same time?

Seems to me you mix those with a little
alcohol and you could have yourself some

pretty fine delusions.

I don't think.

Good for you.

You should at least have a look.

There must be signs of a struggle or
something.

All right, if you insist.

Can't you go after her?

Nope. No can do.

Where's that?

It's private property.

Belongs to the Countess.

Well, whatever.

That woman needs help.

Don't tell me how to do my job.

Broken axle.

That's going to cost.

And it will take a while.

I need to be on the road already.

Oh, that's not going to happen.

Why don't you stay for a while and make
yourself at home in our

lovely town?

That's not going to work.

She's in a hurry.

I could use the parts if I cannibalize
this baby.

I'd pay you, of course.

Not for a train ticket.

How are you?

You are very worried.

Oh, I'm alive and kicking.

My doctors recommend avoiding too much
excitement.

It was very

unsportsmanlike of you to steal from me.

Don't you think?

I don't know what you're talking about.

Long story short, I expect you to return
my property to me.

I have many qualities, Miss Lawrence.

Patience.

Patience is not one of them.

Mr. King, listen, I think this... I...
Well, it's...

There's been an accident, and... I don't
give a shit!

I will find you.

We need to leave.

What have they done to you?

I'll get you, Lucia.

You're gonna be okay.

I'm sorry.

I'm so sorry.

So sorry.

I can't.

They're going to use it.

The trap!

Are you alright?

Just drop me off at the shore, okay?

At least Monday, so... Jesus Christ.
What the hell are you still doing

here? I found her. She was here.

She was still alive.

The woman from last night?

Goodness, whatever happened to you?

There was this woman. She had a sword.

And there was another dead woman in the
lake.

Okay, so there was an injured woman, a
sword -wielding woman, and now another

dead woman. Two dead women.

I'll show you.

You'd better come inside.

It's completely soaked.

And then someone should take a look at
your hands, Miss, hmm?

Lawrence. Miss Lawrence kept us pretty
busy last night.

That's when Bodo runs the Countess of
the State.

I'm sure there's a reasonable
explanation for all the frightening

you've described.

I'm sure it's all quite harmless.
Harmless?

Does this look harmless to you?

Listen.

You have to search this place.

This Countess.

There's a bunch of maniacs running
around and killing people.

The Countess is dead.

What? She passed away last night during
a hunt.

There you have your dead woman.

It wasn't the first time she ignored Dr.
Youssef's warning.

Dr. Youssef is... was her personal
physician.

She could have a quick look at Miss
Lawrence's hand.

Here she is, Dr. Huston.

This lady has injured her hand. Would
you be so kind as to have a look? I go

fetch her some dry clothes.

I think that's her.

It's the one with the leg.

Right. The one with the sword?

May I?

So, what's going to happen with the
property?

A distant relative should arrive within
a few days.

A young lady from Hungary.

She will take over the estate.

Keeping it in the family, eh?

It'll go on as it always has.

The more things change, the more they
stay the same.

There's a certain comfort in that, isn't
there?

I guess.

Are you sure you don't want to rest here
for a bit?

Very well.

You need to check out that cabin.

There is a dead woman.

And don't pretend you don't know.

Ant, did you find what you were looking
for?

How did this get here?

Well, one might say it's in our blood.

Countess's ancestors have been fraud
hunters for generations.

What about you, Miss Lawrence? Do you
hunt?

I don't like it.

Don't you think it's beneficial for the
environment, controlling the population?

There's no benefit in hunting.

At least not for the ones being hunted.

Playing the judge, are we?

I thought you were too busy doing my job
for me.

Don't you see? She's lying.

I could swear they killed that woman.

No, Miss Lawrence.

Those are very serious allegations, Miss
Lawrence.

Here.

It's part of my phone.

There's blood on it.

There's your proof.

The only thing that proves is that
you've been repeatedly trespassing an

accountant's property.

Would you like to press charges?

That won't be necessary.

She's obviously still in shock after
suffering her injury.

Perhaps Miss Lawrence would consider
changing her mind about staying with us

until she's fully recovered.

That would also give us more time to
figure out what... really happened.

Let us help you, dear.

No.

I'm out of here.

I would be happy to arrange that for
you.

Forgot to mention that you also injured
your leg.

I didn't.

Just a little reminder that the glory
days are over.

Stop you from running around on private
property, I see.

Sometimes I forget about the pain.

Maybe it's all those pills you've been
taking.

Maybe they do more than just make you
forget the pain.

Maybe they make you see things that
aren't there.

Left of the way to the village.

Shortcut.

Stop!

Are you insane?

That's him.

That's the witness from the lake.

You have to tell the police what
happened at the lake.

George? Josh.

Tell her.

What are you talking about exactly?
What?

Pull her out of the lake after she did
this.

He was there.

He saw the whole thing.

What did you see, Josh?

I was on the lake when this woman
boarded my boat, started the outboard

and got it entangled in the tracks.

That's not the point.

Take forever to think. Yeah, it is. No,
it's not the point. Lauren seems to

think she was being pursued.

Okay.

So are you trying to say that you didn't
see anything?

Well, I've seen quite enough for one
day. Thank you very much.

I'm sorry.

All right.

Well, we better get going before we miss
the next train.

I'll be fine.

I sincerely doubt that.

Come on, hop in.

It's okay, don't bother.

I'll give her a ride.

I have to head into town anyway.

Suit yourself.

You forgot your laundry.

The less you talk to her, the better.

See?

Okay.

What's in there?

This folk house.

Looks like someone took care of your
hand.

Yeah, they stayed.

What the hell is that?

She looks very much like the woman that
chased me halfway across the lake. The

one you never saw.

Sorry I couldn't be of more help
earlier, but I honestly think I've

whole show.

Well, some men in the village claim that
there might be strange things going on

at that estate.

What kind of things?

That there is a lot of hunting.

Not only for game.

Hunting for what?

I'm not really part of the village
community.

I inherited this place and that fishing
license from my uncle two years ago when

he passed away.

Still looks pretty much the same here.

But then I'm not planning on staying
forever.

So what's keeping you?

Tradition? But you don't like it.

I'd more like it if you have to live
here.

What about those who die here?

What do you mean?

The cop's turning on her die because she
thinks I'm crazy.

Somebody has to do something.

There's nothing you can do.

Besides, I promised George to bring you
back to the train station.

She had a tattoo on her back.

Who?

That girl, they kept in that room at
these days.

If there was still time... Do you have
access to the internet?

Not here.

The Haunting Association owns this
place, but because I live next door, I'm

the caretaker.

There are hardly any members left.

They don't really come around that much.

Why don't you see if you can get this to
work?

Okay.

Well, that outboard motor still needs
fixing.

Hey.

I'm really sorry about that.

This is Marcia Lawrence.

I was wondering if it's possible to move
my surgery appointment.

I'll hold.

No! Please don't cancel the appointment.
I'll make it.

Yes, I'm transferring the deposit via
online banking. Ask me to speak.

Exactly.

Did you get lost in the dark? The
targets... They were moving.

We must have tripped a switch.

The lights weren't working.

Just a minute ago.

This whole place needs fixing.

Look, here.

This has something to do with the
Countess.

She's right.

The shooting range once belonged to an
association called the Pennant

Foundation.

They held numerous competitions here,
but not anymore.

I was looking for you.

This is the ship you have been talking
about.

One had a woman's back.

All right, come on, let's go.

Where to?

To my office, to answer a few questions.

And don't worry, you'll catch your train
on time.

Those two women that arrived last night,
I think they're in great danger.

Take a seat.

Look, George, let's chief follow it to
you.

If you just call that dead woman's
family, I'm sure that they... For the

time, without a corpse, there is no
murder.

You are covering for them.

You better watch what you're saying or
we're going to have to add defamation to

your long list of charges.

And theft, it would appear.

My, my, my, that list just keeps getting
longer and longer.

An art dealer specializing in Eastern
European medieval artifacts reported his

jacket stolen.

A jacket containing something rather
valuable.

The name was Mateus King.

Did that name ring any bells for you?

According to my information, you were
present at the scene, a hunting party

during the time of the incident.

Yes, I was one of the guides.

And I seem to remember you going on and
on after your car crash about a missing

jacket, even though you were already
obviously wearing one.

Without a jacket, there's no theft, is
there?

Let me tell you my version of this
story.

Your missing friend, or accomplice, took
off with the loot

after an argument about her side of the
share.

She took a shortcut across the countess'
estate.

All the talk about missing women.

It's just a ruse to get you on the
Badesky's private property.

You don't give a shit about these women.

They're just out for your own personal
gain.

Is that true about the jacket?

I found it. I didn't really steal it.

Where is it now?

Gone. And I'm leaving too. Bye.

Are you really going to let George scare
you off?

You know, she had a number of criminal
records on her desk and a file on you

too.

And some old book.

Why did you take it?

I don't think it's a good idea to put it
out in front of the police station.

I don't think it was a good idea to
shoot in the first place.

It's kind of rather odd that she keeps a
historic artifact in her office.

Yeah, he was an ancestor of our cannons
here, also known as the Black Knight.

He was known for his great courage in
battle, and also for his extreme cruelty

to Ottoman prisoners.

You're quite smart for a fisherman.

Well, the villagers are extremely proud
of their little piece of history.

Meat makes meat provide strength and
courage.

Hunting, hounding, and whipping makes
the meat juicy and tender.

Yeah, the Badeskis have always been
obsessed with hunting.

Warrior strength multiplied in the
victor.

In Latin, too.

It looks like torturals, it sounds.

The Badesky family history.

The first Badesky took over the estate
in the 17th century.

Ilona Badesky, a young woman from
Hungary.

Then... She died after 50 years, left
everything to Agnes Badesky. After her

came a Charlotte Badesky, and so on
until today.

I'm done with this crazy shit here.

But George is doing her homework, I
hope, after all.

You don't actually believe that, do you?

I should be catching that train.

I've still got this appointment to get
my leg fixed.

And I have to figure out how to pay for
it.

Let me at least drive you.

I'm fine.

And thanks for doing my laundry.

Where are you headed?

Competition, of course.

Are you coming too?

Five disciplines, the five skills of
modern pentathlon.

The sport is based on the duties of a
military courier in historic times. When

called upon to deliver a message across
a battlefield, the courier was required

to ride his horse over rugged terrain.

Should he lose his horse, he was forced
to run, swim, shoot his way through the

enemy's line, or fight any remaining
opponents with his sword.

Three ultimate skills and strengths test
for an athlete.

I'm not following.

The Penta Foundation.

They're all about modern pentathlon.

So what?

For each discipline, there's one
competition site.

Five in total.

Okay, but... I found an access point to
an underground tunnel system at the

stables. When it was down there, it
seemed to be spreading into several

directions. So what if all the
competition sites are connected via an

underground tunnel system?

What I'm saying is, once we're down
there, we should be able to get to any

the competition sites.

I see what you mean.

The stables for horseback riding, the
lake for swimming, the shooting range

shooting, obviously.

That leaves the maze, maybe for running.

But here, the village.

Fancy?

I mean, there's no gym or anything like
that.

Ah, maybe there used to be one in the
old days.

Let's see here.

The hunting cabin.

It's also part of the system.

There was a tunnel I was there.

And that's where you last saw that
jacket, right?

Here.

What is this?

It's an earth mount through a rampart.

The remains can be found all over the
place.

Some villagers claim that it was a
protective wall during the Thirty Years'

in the Middle Ages.

So, where do we start?

What's up?

Something's different.

Tonight.

Looking like it's your time.

What are you doing?

Are you here for the tournament?

Sure.

You don't look like you're in any shape
to fight.

It's been a while since my last boat.

Did you win?

Sometimes winning and losing are the
same.

Time to go.

Listen, you need to get the hell out of
here. They're out for blood.

Take my chances.

You don't stand a chance.

Everybody loses.

Everybody dies.

You too will die.

Are you threatening me?

I'm saving you.

Well... You have a gift.

The gift of being one of the best
warriors to ever grace the Penta

True warrior blood is coursing through
your veins.

The time has come to prove you're
worthy.

To challenge your own destiny.

It's not your fight.

Are you?

What the?

Did you just see that?

I can hear it.

Here we are.

This makes a lot of sense.

Another tip of the pentagram.

The one that pointed the village.

This is a dead end.

You have to turn back.

Like where?

Here.

We need something heavy.

How do you want to live?

Who got that map?

Just amazed that's where we started.

Then we went through here to the fencing
hall, that's where the auto repair shop

is. And then I'm guessing we probably
must have walked through here, into the

center right beneath the manor.

If we can find the tunnel that leads to
the shooting range, maybe we can find a

way out from the inside.

Hey.

It's like the book that George had. See?

He must have been quite chummy with the
Countess if she had a book from a secret

library.

Look.

The Badeski family chronicles.

Official documents.

Yeah, the box is full of old junk. Come
on.

A verdict against the Countess Elizabeth
Badesky and her four closest

servants from the Kingdom of Hungary in
the 17th century.

I sure knew a thing or two about
warfare.

They were convicted for the murder of 80
young women.

Shortly after the execution, the bodies
of the Countess and her four disciples

disappeared without a trace.

Yeah, I think we've probably seen enough
yet.

Come on.

We need to get a move on. Let's go.

Get lean on me.

Josh, this is the priest's report on the
banishment of Count Imanapati.

The first burlesque here in this
village.

Listen to this.

He killed women.

Just like a Hungarian relative.

Right here.

Secretly, the village was led by the
priest to spend weeks building a

concentrated mound all around the entire
estate.

That won't be our historic Rambard.

And I always thought it was for military
purposes only.

Watch your step.

I don't think this is the right time to
be reading a book.

Yes.

By the time the Count saw through the
scheme, it was already too late.

Here. In the chaos of the Thirty Years'
War, the Church played a clever trick on

her.

She thought she was signing a treaty
with the House of Halsbrook, but in

She was signing a disguised warning
spell that made it impossible for her

her people to cross the sanctified
barrier around these states.

Clever. They tricked her into signing
her own curse.

I have documents condemned the Countess
and her sort of servants to these drones

for all eternity.

That's a long time if you're immortal.

Immortal?

You think they're immortal?

The same people? All these centuries?

It was you who mentioned the Fountain of
Youth.

I

believe

you already have an answer to that.

Just a minute ago, you were close to
collapsing. I don't think you're in any

shape to go on another wild goose chase.

But I'm much better now.

In that case, there's no need for a
fountain of youth after all.

We've been here before.

Let me see.

Marcia, wait!

Bye.

Hello dear.

It's a pleasure having you for dinner
tonight.

What is it about life, Miss Lawrence,
that makes one hold on to it so

desperately?

The art of hunting.

Our Countess has perfected it, you know.

We all admire her for her radical
vision.

that brought us our victory over death.

God.

God.

God.

God is dead.

You shouldn't believe everything you are
told.

Of course.

I was getting a bit frail.

And after that little accident last
night, it

was time for a little rejuvenation.

Does not mean eternal youth.

The flesh gives eternal life.

The blood provides eternal youth and an
unscathed body.

Blood and flesh only

together to shape the secret of our
immortality.

The ancient countess will be able to
come into her own inheritance.

As always.

Who's the last woman?

What?

Who's the last of the Countess?

You've uncovered quite a bit for such a
short time.

But you're not quite as smart as you
think you are.

Don't condemn us.

History seems to always condemn the one
brave enough to set out a new path.

So many visionaries have been burned at
the stake.

Why hunting people, visionary?

The stress of the hunt.

The fear and the pain.

That's what gives the meat a bitter
taste. Haste and grants us eternal life.

Warriors on the battlegrounds of history
knew this.

To kill the opponent and feast on their
flesh would give them their strength.

Unfortunately, it has become quite
difficult to find true warriors these

The Panther Foundation helps us to find
what you would call modern -day

warriors.

Athletes, Miss Lawrence, eager to prove
themselves in the

next competition.

I don't know what they are.

You have no idea what it means to be in
prison for centuries.

Fearing pain.

Making your insides boil.

Whenever you draw too close to the
cursed, consecrated circle.

Just because you ache for a breath of
freedom.

And then you...

Show up out of nowhere, carrying the
very documents we've been trying

to get our hands on all these years.

But not anymore.

Just imagine what the world will look
like once

word gets out about our secret of
immortality.

The earth will be a glorious battlefield
where everyone is a hunter.

Everyone is a prey.

You must wait until we are all present.

I'm not waiting a second longer.

Don't burn it before reading.

I need to read it backwards.

Only this will reverse the curse.

Don't be foolish.

My ladies, the countess. We ask not to
be disturbed, Johann.

The bath has been destroyed.

The mistress.

What happened to you?

I have changed.

You're bleeding.

to see your dress for the AMA test.

George, what... Put your goddamn hands
in the air. What are you doing? Drop

weapon and put your goddamn hands up.
You don't actually think I... Drop your

weapon and keep your hands in the air. I
have nothing to do with this. Come on.

Are you hurt?

Stay back.

She's a subtle servant.

I told you, girl, no matter where you
went, I'd find you.

Now let go of my property.

Give that back. Hey, hey.

Easy, easy.

Both of you.

Give it to me.

Give it to me.

Now.

Remember me.

It was an accident.

I don't know.

Who is it?

Titten.

That's enough.

Go wait for Daddy in the car.

I suggest handing over the documents in
question to the authorities.

What are you talking about, man? I am...
And since that seems to have been taken

care of already...

It's really now just a question of
finding the rightful owner, correct?

Well, my name is Mateus King.

You've probably heard of me.

I suppose you're the one who reported
the historical documents stolen?

Correct and right, officer.

They belong to me.

Very well.

In that case, you're under arrest.

for conspiring to steal the property of
the Christian Museum of Budapest and

receiving stolen goods.

Stay where you are! Mr. King!

I am warning you! Hey!

have no idea who you're dealing with no
idea or how serious the consequences

are for this and you are going to end up
in the woods with a bullet in your head

this is the end for all of you

It's going to be a long way back.

Where's the closest competition site?

Probably the boathouse.

Through the tunnels, then. It's our best
bet to get out of here.

There must be a door leading downstairs.

Over here.

Oh, shit.

Can you hold your breath?

Shooting range?

Now I'll be damned.

Thanks for the ride.

It's not like they were after you. Thank
you.

How'd you get here so fast?

Well, let's get out of here.

Not without the proper insurance.

Let's go.

Great plan.

Give me.

Lock down the building.

They'll never let us leave this place.

Not with the documents.

So you two married now or what?

Look, George, we could fight our way
back to the car if you could just give

gun. I don't trust anyone.

And why should we?

Because you don't have a choice.

Because you're holding a gun and we're
not?

Exactly.

I say you're one of them.

Excuse me?

You are the fifth member in the
Countess's Covenant.

If I were, you think I'd be sitting here
protecting you?

You weren't even able to protect
yourself out there.

You fell into disgrace with the
Countess, and that's why you have to

outside the estate playing the cop.

You want the documents for yourself so
you can get the hell out of this

old town and leave your fellow disciples
behind.

Don't come any closer.

Yeah, you want to shoot me like you shot
the poor old servant? He wasn't even

one of them. He was just a man. Shut up!

Get a grip!

If we don't start working together, we
don't stand a chance.

We have to stick together to find our
way out of here.

Guider.

Feel.

How?

If they come out of nowhere and the
bullets don't stop them.

We are here because of you! Because of
you, we're going to die here! Josh!

Why don't we lure them to the open range
at the back of the building?

That way we can round them up and hold
them back while one of us gets the car.

One of us would have to act in bait.

I do it.

Fine with me.

I'm sure you don't want me to do this.

Good luck.

Who needs that anymore?

I've seen this place needed fixing.

Me too.

Where's George?

You're the fifth disciple.

We're not that different, you and me.

No, I've done terrible things.

But I'm not like them.

I was stuck with them.

I hated them.

They put me in the shithole to do their
dirty work.

Then I heard about the sword dealer.

Mr. King.

I promised him a small fortune if he
could acquire these documents for...

An anonymous collector.

Then you came along.

Sorry I've ruined anything for you.

If it hadn't been for you, I could have
been long gone by now, leaving those

things in prison forever.

But then I wouldn't have met you.

I want to be just like you, free to go
wherever I want.

I might get rid of that curse, but not
of the guilt you carry.

There you go.

Wait, I...

Alright.

catch your loss.

You're cursed to live forever.

You are better.

Swallow this!

Soft breeze of wind in your face.

Lack of sunbeams on your skin.

The day is slowly turning into night.

You can run, but you cannot hide this

sight.

Just lean back, close your eyes.

The road has come to the end.

Don't say your last words, talk to the
hand.

Don't ask why, there's just seven ways
to die.

When you hear my name The bitter taste

of your blood Come out, come

out Wherever you are You can

run, but you cannot hide It's time,

just lean back Close your eyes.

The road has come to the end.

Don't say your last words talk to the
hand.

Don't ask why there's just seven ways to
die.

Seven ways.

Close your eyes.

Don't ask why there's just seven ways to
die.
