All language subtitles for The Keep [1983] (Grindhouse)

Not very well, sir.

Why not?

We should be in Russia.

For what?

The final assault on Moscow.

We could transfer.

But by the time you got there, Russia
would have gone like France, Belgium,

Holland, all the rest.

We are all done fighting.

Now we are the masters of the world.

Does that enthrall you, Oster?

Yes, sir. Good.

But we have been assigned to guard this
pair, so here is where you'll stay.

Tell the men to get out.

Dismount!

And? And?

Machine guns come across the ravines of
the keep with us.

What are you doing here?

I'm the caretaker, sir.

And they?

They're my sons.

There's 108 such crosses made of nickel
embedded in the walls of the keep.

You counted them?

Or is it something you tell your two
customers?

I'm Alexandru.

My sons and I work here.

No one...

tours this place.

I thought the cave was unoccupied. We go
home at night.

We live in the village.

Where's the owner?

I have no idea.

Who is he? I don't know.

Who tells you what to do?

We do what needs doing.

My father spent his life doing it.

His father before him and so on.

My sons will continue after me.

There you are.

You may continue your maintenance after
we settle in. You cannot stay here.

And why not?

No one stays here.

And who forbids it? No one forbids.

Some travelers have stayed.

We don't stop them, but no one stays the
night.

Ghosts, demons?

No, no ghosts here.

Deaths and suicides?

No one's ever died here.

and what drives people out in the middle
of a rainy night.

Dreams.

Nightmares.

Bad man.

The real nightmares man has made upon
other men in this war.

The bad dreams of your keep are nursery
rhyme by comparison.

Come on.

I wanted to...

Who built the keep?

Some day Kirk, some day the warlords of
ancient Wallachia.

No, no, no, this is not a portrait.

The soldier could walk up the outside
wall.

Why are the small stones on the outside
and the large stones here on the

interior?

It's constructed... ...like it was.

This place was not designed to keep
something.

What's in this place?

No one knows for sure.

Herr officer!

Doctor! The what?

They're opening the wall!

Old man, spikes were light. We have
generators.

The Wehrmacht doesn't live by
candlelight.

And it's he stringing lights.

Soldier, what's your assignment?

String lights, sir. Then what the hell
are you doing? Answer!

Silver crosses, sir.

There's talk among the men.

They hide silver here.

Treasure, sir. Private look.

It's been a profitable day for you. Not
only have you learned the crosses are

made of nickel, not silver, but you have
earned yourself a place on first watch

all week. Get out.

Never touch the crosses.

Never.

And why not?

You must not stay here.

Good day, Alexandra.

Nick

Otto! Otto!

I'm on duty!

Forget it. Come on. Look at this.

Look at the block.

This is the only silver cross.

This block moves.

Behind this one block, there may be more
silver.

Are you ready to be rich?

All right.

Roadblock.

Plenty's on my back, coach.

Hmm.

Where to?

Constanta, on the Romanian coast.

Too dangerous.

Very expensive.

Steiner. Last night it was Steiner.

That makes five dead.

And I checked with the radio man.

There's been no answer to your request
for relocation.

In this village, partisans have been
operating against the greater German

Are you insane?

S .S.

Einsatzkommando Sturmband, your comfort
is what I have.

Captain House Bormann is what you are.

Your request for relocation is denied,
Bormann. I am now in command over this

emplacement, and you will not interfere
with our actions.

You, you, you, you and you.

Bring them to the keep.

Sir, there are no partisans in this
village. These friends know nothing. If

more German soldier dies, all five
hostages will be shot.

And five more will be shot every time
another German is killed.

We will continue until partisan activity
stops or we run out of villages.

There are no partisans.

See to it that my Einsatzkommando are
quartered.

Those people you murdered are Romanians,
Edison!

We are an allied state!

Let's have an immediate understanding,
Verban.

Who gives a damn about the death of a
few Communists?

Listen to me.

MG -34s cover the entrance.

Lights illuminate the perimeter.

And whatever kills us gets in anyway.

Nothing we do, no security work.

We have seen no party dance.

Something has been released. Something?

What do you mean?

Are you trying to create a mystery?

To excuse your incompetence in
protecting your men?

My competence?

What proven in combat?

Against soldiers who shoot back?

Not slaughtering civilians.

But I am a political soldier, Vaughan.

And I shall say it once only.

Your security doesn't work.

From now on, these partisans will be
afraid to kill.

Because they will fear the price their
actions cause these villagers to pay.

Now listen.

Something else is killing us.

And it doesn't care about the lives of
three villagers.

If it is like you.

And that you appear well.

Take that reliant thought back to Dachau
with you when you go.

You go.

Because here this keep has so much to
recover.

You may learn.

Now that you're not the kid can teach me
anything We found the rest of Steiner

See

the latest present our friend

Explain this, Kemper.

This is what's happening to us.

What do these words mean?

Well, Herr Officer, I don't know.

Don't lie to me.

Those words are Romanian.

What they say, I won't know.

They look like Romanian, Herr Officer,
but they're not. I don't know what they

say. He's telling the truth.

Make him stop!

What do you suggest I do?

Direct him.

Priest, you're next.

Teach him the art of translation.

Herr officer, this writing is like
Romanian, but different. It's

It's not written in the Latin alphabet,
nor in the Cyrillic alphabet.

What can you tell us about the keep?

We don't know. Me?

Nothing? Yes, what?

You're about to say more.

You can tell us nothing.

Who can? No one.

Don't lie to me.

I'll shoot this man dead.

There's a professor of medieval history
at the university in the city of Yashi.

He's made a study of this keep.

Perhaps he can translate that for you.
His name?

Dr. Theodore Cusar.

He grew up in this village.

Her office.

Dr. Bazar is not Inayashi.

Then where?

Dr. Bazar is a Jew.

He's wherever you've taken the Jews.

Good.

The SS will bring them today from the
depot.

Do you play the night?

I don't play music here.

Except I'm not happy here.

Why are you here, girl?

I'm Eva Kuza.

This is my father, Dr. Kuza.

We are Jews.

The gypsies are not the only ones who
are the enemies of the state.

When we reach that new settlement place,
they say we're going to. Then I play

music for you, gachi girl.

There are farms and wheat fields there.

Where are you going in such a hurry?

Into the past.

Get down.

How far?

To the keep.

Move away from the machine.

Open the case.

I will tell you something that few know.

The people who go to these, a settlement
comes.

There are only two doors.

One in and one out.

The one out is a chimney.

So, you had better find a way to be of
use to me in three days.

Three days.

Or back to the camp go you.

What does it mean?

Can you understand it?

Well, the former is in the imperative.

It says, I will be free.

So we do have partisans.

It's all Slavonic, but within the
galactic alphabet.

Your partisans are writing to you in a
language that has been dead for 500

years.

Need wood for a fire. Get that code.

Look at my phone.

He looks 68.

He's 48.

He's dying from a variety of
scleroderma.

The temperature in this room, gangrene,
will be in his fingers in an hour.

That's enough.

He won't last, Major Kemp, for three
days.

You'll get that one.

And some furniture.

And lights.

Get your food from our mess.

Let me tell you something.

The Major will snuff yards like that.

He has his reasons for a quick fillip.

And then again, you may not.

Michael, how did you manage this? I
didn't think I could.

You rescued us? For me, it doesn't
matter forever.

What fairytales did you tell them? None.

They made up their own.

But I made them believe that you could
solve their problems just to get you

brought here.

Now, now we must get you out.

How?

Today I arrange a guide.

Tomorrow you have to see the old
Slavonic manuscripts in the church. The

will take you from the church across the
mountains to the Dnieper, from there

the Black Sea, anywhere. How far do you
think I'll get? I can't fight, I can't

walk, nothing. You just get Ava out of
here. Listen to me.

They've already killed three villages
here, including Old Simonescu.

I was in Brasov. They were rounding up
trade unionists, journalists, Jews,

gypsies. God knows what happens to them.

We found out what happened.

I'm not going without you.

You have to try.

I'll carry you on my back if I must.

How are you?

Darn it.

Who ever thought of sticking the miracle
of the human intelligence inside one of

these decaying bodies?

He should have been fired.

So where else would God have put the
human soul?

In a desk.

Maybe a streetcar.

Oh, it wouldn't be so bad. It breaks,
you get a new part.

Relax for me.

One of these days you're going to
believe in the divine.

You believe in gods, I believe in men.

If I wait until you change into an old
man in a wheelchair, I should

have a nurse. She should live her life.

She won't let anyone else take care of
you.

I have much to do.

One more thing, you can't.

Yeah?

The writing on the wall.

Yeah? You put it there?

No.

How do you get that?

There is something that you can do for
me to make me feel easier

Keep it with you just just two days

There is your sister.

Oh, oh, oh.

Do you want me to help you? Get your
hand off.

Sit down.

Come on, Edmund. Get your job.

Get up there helping me.

Welcome, my mother.

Why are you here?

I thought I could find what was killing
that soldier.

You... You collaborate!

No!

Don't accuse me of collaborating with
actors!

I don't think you stop!

I feel warm.

I know.

It brought you here.

Oh, I'm a dream.

It's a nightmare.

It carried you here. I saw it too.

I saw one meal.

Look at my hands and look at my face.

It cuts my body.

Look at you.

I don't know what it is and I don't
care.

He is like a hammer.

And can help smash things. What are you
talking about?

Dealing with a god?

A devil!

A devil? Now you listen to me. the devil
in the keeper is a black uniform and

has a death's head in his cap and calls
himself a Stromban Fuhrer.

There were two more deaths last night.

You are going to stay at the inn.

You have two minutes to pack. Why?

Because I can at least keep you safe
from what is killing us.

And after the incident and the meth,
maybe from the men too.

Maybe from the men.

I'm not going to leave my father here
alone.

Yes.

You should go. No.

You now have a minute and 45 seconds.

A minute and 45 seconds for what?

For Lancusa packing her things and
moving her... She is not moving

forbid it. I will not permit you to send
my daughter away.

You? You forbid?

Let me tell you something. You forbid
nothing.

Nothing.

Get her out of here.

Who's this?

My son.

He died in Spain five years ago that
month, fighting

on the Republican side.

Were you in Spain?

If I were, I would have been in the
Terminal Brigade with other

anti -fascist Germans.

Your son and I, we would have been
fighting on the same side.

But no, I wasn't.

What?

The cross.

Why do you, a Jew, need the protection
of the cross?

I don't.

It was the gift of a friend, a humane
man.

Listen to me, Captain Vermin.

I pass the gift on to you.

Take it.

You are a humane man, too, and you...
you may need it.

I have no money to pay you right now.

Your father gave me many favors over the
year. Forget about it.

Thank you, but we'll pay.

What are you doing here?

This is the only room I'm ever looking
to keep.

Yes. Then I'll take it.

It's taken by Domnethwara Cusar.

Where will you go?

Back into the keep away from here. I
don't know.

Where's your father in the keep?

He's been kept there by a soldier.

Are you going to wait for him?

Or leave?

I'm going to wait right here for him.

Then you better stay here with me.

on there.

You have death around you.

Your hands.

No.

And what you sense is my fate in the
death camp.

A place where people gather to die.

A place where people are murdered.

My people are murdered.

Yes, and others come all over you.

Who touched this?

The leader in Berlin.

And the soldiers of Black.

I will destroy them!

I will consume their lives.

When?

Could you do that?

When I am complete.

In two nights.

If...

I can leave this place.

Why couldn't you? Because an object of
mine, the origin of my power, must be

removed from the keep and hidden in
these mountains and kept safe from

here.

And from anyone who may come here.

It must be done by someone I can trust.

Like you.

Only then can I leave the keep and
destroy the soldiers in black and their

leaders.

Will you carry this object out of here
for me?

I'm not leaving yet.

You need to get Ava out. Ava.

Ava is at the inn.

There is something here.

A power.

This power is our salvation.

Power is God.

And the Messiah, his immortal son, who
took flesh of the Holy Mother and ever

-Virgin Mary. And I, I have been right.

And you, you, Theodore Cusar, you have
been wrong.

I was right. In my simple faith, I was
right.

The mescal evil comes from the axe
between man and man. It wears a swastika

it believes in black dreams. You know
this. What's happening to you? Stay

Stay here with your daughter and burn
with the others.

Burn with the misfits, the gypsies, the
heretics. I won't let the finger to help

you.

MONSTER!

the dead and deliver us and grace us.

Not yet.

Mekhi told me you didn't leave. You were
right.

Mekhi's gone crazy.

What's happened?

I can't help Mekhi.

What's happened is that what was
repressed within the keep is spreading

village. Good.

What do you know about it?

I know that you have bound yourself to
him.

That you have agreed to carry the
talisman out.

It's the sorcerer of...

It is not his.

It is what keeps him inside the walls.

And if you carry it out, he will be
released into the world of men.

What is happening in the world is worse
than anything he can do. He is the same.

Look at you.

This.

I told you to give a damn about me. I'm
not doing this for free.

That's why he picked you.

Only someone uncorrupted could even get
near the talisman.

stranger at the inn. He asks questions.

I believe he's connected with the people
who pay for the keep's maintenance.

Arrest the man. Bring him to the keep.

This place seems to agree with you.

You look healthier.

This place has its...

Strong point.

You're part of this, aren't you?

Inside is mine.

I have been here for ages, watching and
guarding against what is happening

now. He is being released.

I have come to destroy him.

When he goes, I go.

What?

Then why?

Why did you come to me?

You will come into the keep for
interrogation.

PASS!

What was the shooting in the village,
eh?

A civilian re -interrogated.

Resisted molest.

Another civilian.

The courageous Einsatzkommander again is
victorious.

Thurmond.

Thurmond!

Thurmond!

Nothing.

You will die.

All of us will die.

You're falling apart, Val.

You despise our lawlessness.

Will you do not grab history by the
throat and write the next 1 ,000 -year

future without brutality and courage?

Fairy tale, Kemper.

Romantic fairy tales.

You tell yourself.

Then dress up in black and silver so you
can look in the mirror and mainly

believe them. I will, I will, I will.

At Poznan, a year and a half ago, FF
Einsatzkommando

executed men, women and children.

Children, for God's sake.

Ruthlessness.

Courage.

Are you with the German anti -fascist
fighting us in Spain? No.

Did you stop the Einsatzkommando at
Poznań?

No.

You have the debilitating German
disease, Furman.

Sentimental talk.

It allows you to feel sensitive,
superior, and yet stay safe because you

action.

Your sentimental suffering makes me...
For once, you're right, Kemper.

I'm only half a man.

All that we are is coming out.

Here in this keep.

The man sees the truth.

And what truth do you see?

What are you discovering about yourself,
Kempfer?

I murder all these people.

Therefore, I must be powerful.

And you smash them down because only
that raises you up.

A psychotic fantasy to escape the
weakness and disease you sense in the

your soul.

You have scooped the most diseased
circus out of the German gutter. You

released the foulness that dwells in all
men's minds. You have infected millions

with your twisted fantasies.

What are you where do you come from?

Where am I from?

from this place.

Take it out of here.

There's no one left to stop you.

You belong to the Black and Truth
Mahito.

Not more than that.

This is power!

It's corrupting.

It's changing your soul.

Take it back.

Get out of my way. No!

No! Get out of my way!

Kill her.

And take the talisman out of here.

Who are you that I have to prove myself
to by killing my child?

Obey me!

Or you will return to the disease state
I found you in.

And I'll slay both of you!

If this is yours, as you said, then you
take it out of the...

You can't?

Then this isn't yours.

And the keep is a prison to contain you.

And you have lied, exploited, deceived.

And you are the same evil as outside
this place. So you prove yourself to me.

You take it out of here.

Prove yourself.

Take it!

out of this place.
