(alarm sounding)

Everybody out now!

It's escaped.

- Man: Oh my God, it's loose! - ( clamoring)

( roaring )

( screams )

( roars )

Check it.

( growls )

Yeah, he's there. He's there.

I've got to go. I've got to go.

151

( screams )

( shouting )

( screams )

(growling )

- ( ringing ) - Come on, come on.

Sir, your blood pressure's been high again lately.

I suggest you stop drinking.

Yes yes, I know.

Not one word.

-( intercom beeps ) - Excuse me, Mr. Drake.

There's an urgent call from Sector 13 on line one.

Doctor, you are excused.

Talk to me.

Alpha chamber has been compromised. Primeval One escaped.

Oh God.

Should I call in the local authorities?

No. No, we cannot risk anyone finding out about our work.

Get back to the lab.

Fill a tranq gun with 500cc of cetacolin.

Cetacolin doesn't work anymore. The damn thing's grown immune.

That's how it escaped. We're got to do something now

before it gets to the populated areas on the other side of the island.

Calm down. I'll send a team immediately to take care of things.

Meanwhile, don't breathe a word of this to anyone

or it's gonna be all of our asses.

Now...

tell me about the other specimen.

Stewart's in the containment center right now trying to sedate it.

- ( panting ) - ( creature growling )

Is it working?

( clamoring )

I can't be sure.

(thudding )

The growth hormone worked too well.

(thudding )

Oh my God.

Oh God, no. Stewart!

-What the hell? - No!

- Stewart! - Kim, what's going on?

- Oh my God. - Kim, answer me.

( creature roaring )

What the hell is going on?

( screams )

Babe, let's go to the waterfall.

Why? Look, this is beautiful.

- Let's just stay right here. - it's so hot out. I want to cool off.

Okay, so you go in the water and you cool off.

Babe, that's salt water. Let's go to the fresh water.

So we'll just stay right here.

I'll make it worth your while.

Uh, no.

Bruce, you are no fun.

You know what? I'm going. You can come if you want.

Wait. Wait for me.

Katie, wait. Hold on.

Wait for me.

( laughing )

Hey, baby, come back here.

( laughing )

- Whoo. - Gotcha.

- I told you it'd be worth it. -I guess you were right.

Come on, let's get wet.

It's gorgeous.

- Ow! - Yeah.

- ( yells) - Oh God.

Enjoy the sofa tonight, jerk.

Oh come on, baby. Don't be that way.

I was just kidding.

There's got to be something I can do to make it up to you.

Huh?

Tell me I'm beautiful.

The most beautiful girl I've ever seen.

As a matter of fact, there is one thing you could do

to make yourself even more beautiful.

Yeah? What's that?

- Get me a beer. - God, you ass. Really?

Come on, baby, it's right there. Please?

You're lucky you're good in bed, you know that?

Mm-hmm. I know.

( laughs )

Bruce.

Bruce, where did you go?

Are you kidding me with this? What, are you a 12-year-old?

All right, Bruce, come on. Please.

Bruce, where are you? The joke is over, please.

Please come up. Where are you?

Bruce, please. Come on.

This is not a joke. Bruce, where are you?

Please.

All right, Bruce, this is the last straw.

(snorts)

( screams )

(phone ringing)

- Hello. - Beaumont, it's Conrad.

Hey, Mark. What's the word?

Well, the word is you're about one phone call away

from being recalled back here to DC.

What? They can't do that. Not now.

Oh yes they can.

Especially since the committee and the chairman

both think you lack the evidence to support your theory.

Did you show them the cage enclosures?

It's insufficient evidence.

Those structures could house just about anything.

Look, there is something alive and big in there.

I'm telling you, I heard it.

And until you have visible proof nobody here is gonna buy it.

What about the eye in the sky?

Well, I pulled up the most recent coverage from this morning

and nothing. The place is vacant.

Vacant? Look, I counted at least 50 people

walking around when I was up there the other day.

But they're not there now.

Oh man. I just don't understand.

Did you get the coordinates for the growth field?

Yeah, now that stuff looks great even from 10 miles up.

The boss is very pleased.

Yeah well, he'll be less than pleased when he finds out

that Drake's been using the growth hormone on living creatures.

What if someone tipped him off about our investigation?

Would they pull the plug?

No no no. Drake's got way too much time

and money invested in this thing to just shut up shop now.

So where did the people go?

I don't know. That's a very good question.

Paul, I think you need to head back up there and take a look around

up close and personal.

Yeah, you're right. I will. But not today.

I've been working two weeks straight.

I'm gonna give myself a well-earned day off.

Oh yeah? Where are you going?

- I am going fishing. - Fishing?

You're a workaholic. You don't do stuff like that--

sitting around all day in the hot sun

wearing those ugly clothes.

I will have you know I picked out something very very attractive

and I think the natives will appreciate it.

- Dude, you're scaring me. - Look, I'll talk to you later.

Goodbye.

( beeps )

Man on radio: Swanson to launch. Swanson to launch.

- What's your 20, Cassidy? - Hey, Dad.

I'm a quarter mile south of Fern Grotto.

- Meet me at the dock. - Why? What's up?

Why are you always asking questions? Just meet me there, okay?

Cassidy: Sure thing.

Cranky fart.

So what couldn't you tell me over the radio?

Got a call from that nature photographer Hammond

about an hour ago. He's up near Rainbow Falls.

That's halfway up the mountain.

I'm surprised he even got cell service up there.

He's got some satellite phone.

It was a little garbled, but from what I caught

he found something strange floating in the water.

What?

A bunch of clothes strewn around,

a couple of backpacks, a man's wallet.

There were bloodstains all over 'em.

There aren't any animals up there big enough to harm anyone.

It might not be an animal, Cass.

Want me to take you upriver?

No, these old bones of mine won't make it once the water gets shallow.

I got Jake over at Safari,

he's gonna chopper me up first thing in the morning.

All right, I'll go up and take a look.

No you won't. Not without backup.

I just want you to keep your eye out while you're patrolling the banks.

Watch for anything strange.

( helicopter whirring )

You mean like that?

Charlie: Those sure ain't tour choppers.

Looks like they're heading in the same direction you are, Dad.

- Hey, Patterson. - Yeah.

- Remember to pack our scarf? - Oh, that is funny.

You got enough rations because I've got plenty of shut the hell up.

All right, you idiots. it's time to earn our pay.

Y'all lock and load.

All right, ladies. Get ready to move out.

Hoorah.

( panting )

We got something.

Wait. Wait, don't shoot. Don't shoot.

Thank God. Drake Industries sent you, didn't they?

That's right. Drake sent us personally.

You're safe. Now tell me where those lizards are.

I don't know. I've been hiding in the brush for the last six hours.

I've never been so scared in my life.

- Any survivors? - I don't think so.

I'm-- I'm just glad I made it.

- You didn't. - Wait wait wait!

All right, Drake said the facility was three kliks in from the beach.

Monroe, Marsden, y'all go that way.

Lerner, Patterson, y'all cut around the other side.

Weeks, you're with me. Remember, we have our orders.

No witnesses.

( creature roaring )

- Frank, did you hear that? - Quiet.

Sounds like one of our reptiles. Be ready to rock and roll.

- Roger that. - Move.

Man, I don't know if I could stomach shooting civilians like that.

Don't think of it as civilians. Think of it as dollar signs.

Money always eases the conscience.

You really believe we're hunting giant lizards?

Guess we'll find out.

- ( growling ) - What was that?

( roars )

What the?

- Holy-- - ( screams )

Patterson, Lerner, what's going on?

- Patterson, come in. - I don't like this, man.

- Marsden, you near them? - Negative. What's happening?

Get back to the rendezvous point on the double.

We're halfway there. (snaps fingers)

Move out, Weeks.

Move move move.

( roars )

( screams )

- You hear that? - Yeah.

This way.

( roars )

Oh God.

Stop praying and start shooting.

Weeks: These bullets ain't doing nothing.

Give me your C4.

- Get down. -( roars )

- It didn't work. - Move out.

Do you think we lost him?

I don't know, but we're getting out of here right now.

Radio the chopper and tell them we need extraction.

Drake team to XV-1. Come in.

I said, Drake team to XV-1. Come in.

- ( creature roars ) - ( men scream )

Drake: Gentlemen, in terms of investment,

I assure you your money is safer with me than it would be in a bank.

I'm sorry, ma'am. This is a private party.

- I have an invitation. - I'll have to see that invitation.

You have three seconds to get your hand off my shoulder.

- Just show me the invitation. - One.

- Look, lady-- - Two.

- Just show me the invitation. - Three.

( groans )

( coughs )

Excuse me for a moment.

Very subtle.

You don't pay me for subtlety.

What the hell do you want, Victoria?

We have a problem. Frank and his men

never made it back to the extraction point.

- Oh. - And there's been no radio contact

since they touched down on the island.

- Damn. - So, we call in more mercs?

( chuckles ) Tell you what, Victoria,

when I was a kid growing up on the Lower West Side of Manhattan,

there was this pizza joint

on the corner of 9th Avenue and 22nd Street,

a little mom-and-pop place.

Every box they sent out had written on it

"You've tried the rest, now try the best."

Call the Cajun.

- The Cajun? - The Cajun.

In my Rolodex.

( knife scrapes )

( phone rings)

Logan.

I'm looking for a man called the Cajun.

Yeah well, you got him. Who's this?

I'm calling on behalf of Mr. Jason Drake.

-I believe you already know him. - Yeah, I know him.

- ( water splashes ) - ( alligator roars )

What does he want me to kill this time?

(phone ringing)

If you're calling to tell me to pack my bags, I haven't caught my quota yet.

Yeah? What's your quota for today?

I'd settle for at least one.

But we both know that's not why you're calling now, is it?

No it's not.

Look, after our conversation this morning

I started thinking again about what I saw in those fields.

Yeah, I think Drake might be up to something.

No question. But what did you go and do?

Something illegal I assume?

Not really. I did go over the committee's head though.

I called in a favor from a buddy of mine over at Langley.

- CIA? - Technically no.

But yeah, kinda.

- He hooked us up. - How?

Let's just say I had a direct feed when the eye in the sky

took an unscheduled flight over the island.

Mark, I love you. What did you find?

Well, you know those cage enclosures

- you've been talking about? - Yeah.

Well, it looks like someone brought a demolition team in there.

Took the place apart.

The exterior walls have gaping holes in them.

There's rubble all over the courtyard. The place is a mess.

Did you alert the committee?

Yeah, I showed them the pictures as soon as I got back.

Here's the thing-- first thing they did was call Drake.

Guy hasn't called them back yet. He's being pretty cagey about it.

But the good news is that Robertson wants you to stay put.

He wants you to keep digging. Go build a case.

That's exactly what I wanted to hear. Great.

I'll call you tomorrow, all right?

Good. Go catch something big.

Yeah, something tells me I think I might.

( motor stalls)

- ( motor sputtering ) - Come on.

- Crap. - ( motor sputtering )

( motor starts )

- Ahoy. - Hi.

You having some engine trouble?

I don't know.

Everything was fine and then the boat rocked like in a storm

and the motor just went.

Well, let's get you up here and I'll take a look.

Don't go to any trouble. I can always call for a tow.

It's no trouble.

I don't mind getting my hands dirty.

I'm Paul, by the way.

Swanson-- Cassidy Swanson.

Are you here on vacation?

More like a sabbatical.

My boss has been waiting a year for me to complete some important theorems

and I guess he figured the best way to make that happen

was to imprison me here in paradise.

Theorems. You're a scientist, huh?

Uh, an engineer of sorts.

Of sorts? Sounds very mysterious, Paul.

- I think I've found your problem. - What?

It's your prop. The blades are bent straight back to the hull.

- You hit a rock or something? - Not in the middle of the river.

Well, you're not getting back to the docks in this thing.

I've got a jeep. Be glad to give you a lift.

All right, thanks.

All right, I'm parked just up the trail there.

So what's it like being a cop?

My dad's a cop.

I'm a conservation officer with the Fish and Game Department.

Sounds glamorous.

So what drove a pretty girl like you into that line of work?

Simple, I love animals.

I hate seeing them hurt or exploited.

So when I had the chance I applied and got the job.

Must have made your dad happy.

Hmm, you've obviously never met my father.

So conservation officer, huh?

So if I ever hunt down one of these wild boar I see running around..j

I'd throw you up against the hood and handcuff you.

Really? Is that a promise or a threat?

- Watch out! - ( brakes squeal )

- You all right? - Yeah, I'm fine.

I came down this road two days ago.

This must have just happened.

Cassidy: Couldn't have been a mudslide. Hasn't been enough rain for that.

How did all these rocks get here then?

( creature roars )

Was that thunder?

Not like I've ever heard.

I suddenly feel the need to be around a lot of people.

There's another way back through the Drake game preserve.

We passed the gate about two miles back. But I think it was locked.

Well, we'll try unlocking it then.

That's commonly called trespassing.

Hey, desperate times call for desperate measures.

Come on, get in.

(engine starts)

So where are the guys?

I tried to wake up Kyle but he was out. Totally out.

Johnny opened his eyes long enough to mumble, "Go without us."

Dorks.

I knew when they started drinking last night that this would happen.

I know. So do you want to cancel?

Cancel a helicopter ride to a lost waterfall?

No way. I'm going.

Okay, wait here. I'll go check with the front desk.

Hey, maybe we can get a refund on the guys' fare

and use it for shopping later.

- Sounds good to me. - Okay.

Take a picture, it'll last longer.

- Am I bothering you? - Yes, you are.

It's just I thought I recognized you.

My eyes are up here, honey.

It's not the part I recognized.

Why don't you take a hike

before I call security and have you thrown out?

- Hey, that's not very friendly. - Don't touch me.

Chica, you're in paradise. You've got to learn to chill.

Hey, pal. You need to cool off.

Whoa!

The lady said she wasn't interested.

You have a nice day, ma'am.

Mm-hmm.

Mr. Logan, someone from Mr. Drake's office called.

They want you to meet at this location.

- Anything else? - Yes.

They wanted me to inform you that everything's ready

for your hunting expedition.

Do me a favor.

Call them back, tell them I'll be there within an hour.

Will do.

( phone rings)

Pool desk.

- Jerry. - That's me.

Jerry, it's me, Chaz Kingsley.

It's good to hear your voice again, Mr. Kingsley.

Great to hear your voice too. But you're not only gonna hear me,

you're gonna see me in less than four hours.

I'm catching the studio jet to the island in less than 10 minutes.

- That's wonderful. - It is wonderful.

I'm almost at the airport right now.

Just wrapped another sequel to "Maniac Man"

and decided it was time for a little rated R&R.

Well, the weather's been great and the fishing is to die for.

( laughs ) You know how I love my tilapia.

But you know what? I need to ask you a very big favor.

- Anything. - Anything is my favorite word.

Now I have the private villa, as usual.

But I need it stocked with everything-- food, liquor,

cheeses-- all before I get there.

I'll make sure that happens, sir.

Great. And I'll make sure that you are well compensated for it when I see you.

No problem, Mr. Kingsley.

- Great. Oh, and Jer. - Yes?

Make sure you bring enough for three, if you catch my drift.

That I do, sir.

Have a great flight.

You know it's my sworn duty to arrest people for doing things like this.

Oh relax. If we get caught

I'll just act all irrational and crazy

and you can say you were bringing in an escaped mental patient.

That would explain the shirt.

I like this shirt.

All right, we're in.

- Where'd you learn that? - Oh, my misspent youth.

Figures. I'm out with a convicted felon.

Hey, I was never convicted.

What?

Nothing. I was just trying to figure you out is all.

What's there to figure out? I told you, I'm an engineer.

Come on.

Oh my. it's beautiful.

- ( footsteps ) - ( 93595 )

Jeez, you scared me.

Sorry about that.

I saw the helicopter. Thought it might be the sheriff.

Sheriff? Why would you need a sheriff up here?

Is something wrong?

Nothing you guys need to worry your little heads about.

- What's that? - Camera.

I try to keep it hidden from the wildlife.

I'm a photographer for "Mother Nature" magazine.

You might have heard of me-- Reese Hammond.

Have you done those animal shows on cable? I love those.

I've done a few.

It must be fun going all over the world to exotic locations.

It has its moments.

Oh yeah.

So, maybe you should shoot us in front of the waterfall.

( chuckles )

Yeah, I'm sure it's gonna be great for my editor,

not so much for the producers though.

Oh, come on.

(giggles)

You can always cut it out later.

One roll.

Okay, you guys are gonna love this picture.

( laughs )

(camera clicks)

( screaming )

- ( creature roaring ) - Oh my God.

Hurry. Hurry.

( panting )

- Do you think it's gone? - I think so.

( coughs )

I can't believe it.

That poor guy.

He was so cute.

It's gonna be poor us if we don't get out of here.

Come on.

What are we gonna do?

The chopper doesn't get back until 4:00.

I don't know. Which way is it to the hotel?

- ( growling ) - What's that sound?

( screaming )

( screaming )

( screams )

( mooing )

- Howdy, Sheriff. - Howdy.

Thanks for coming so quick, Charlie.

That's your tax dollars at work.

So what seems to be the problem here?

You were pretty vague over the phone.

It's back here. Check it out.

(flies buzzing )

Oh my Lord.

I found her lying like this this morning when I got back from feeding grain.

Any of you see anything? Hear anything?

Nothing out of the ordinary, except--

Except what, Roy? Spit it out.

Well, I was mending fences on the back 40 this morning

when suddenly the whole herd just got up and stampeded up the hill.

If I hadn't gotten out of the way, they would have run me over.

What could have done this, Sheriff?

I'll tell you what could have done this.

This is a cattle mutilation just like you see on the UFO shows.

Oh crap. Not this again.

I'm telling you, it's aliens.

First they go for our animals, then they go for our women.

( sighs ) I've seen your wife.

Trust me, Roy, she's safe.

I know, I know.

Look here.

That flesh was torn apart by what looks like huge teeth.

It ET did it, he's got one hell of an overbite.

Yeah, but that doesn't tell us what kind of animal did this, Charlie.

No it doesn't.

That's why I'm calling Cassidy right away.

In the meantime, I want you to call the other ranchers.

- Tell them exactly what happened. - Will do.

Exactly what did happen here, Charlie?

Wish I knew.

Swanson to launch. Swanson to launch, come in.

( static )

Swanson to launch. Cassidy, come in.

Swanson to launch, come in.

Damn it, daughter. Where the hell are you when I need you?

(starts engine)

Swanson to launch. Swanson to launch.

For the 10th time, Cassidy, come in.

Damn.

So, Paul the engineer, tell me something about yourself.

Not much to tell really.

I'm sort of boring.

Come on, out with it.

Jeez, is this an interrogation?

Shouldn't you read me my rights or something?

( sighs ) Stop the jeep.

- What? -I said stop the jeep.

Where are you going?

Back to my boat.

You've been lying since we met and I'm tired of hearing it.

- What are you talking about? - I saw those photos on your computer.

Some sort of secret complex in the jungle.

Want to tell me about those, Paul?

- That's what I thought. - Cassidy, wait.

Grab me again and I'll put a hole in your favorite shirt.

All right, all right. Look look.

I work for the federal government, all right?

- I work for EcoGrow. - Never heard of them.

It's an offshoot of the Department of Agriculture.

We offer endowments to private industries.

That's how Drake got himself this prime piece of real estate.

Except that word came back he's been operating way out of his charter.

What do you mean?

Well, he's supposed to be developing fast-growing agricultural products.

But we hear that he's using our funding for military applications.

And you're investigating him?

You know how it was so easy for me to pick that lock back there?

Because I've picked it before. Several times.

So you're a spy.

Yeah, but for the good guys.

How do I know this is not just another one of your stories?

I've got proof. Come on.

Viola.

Is that what I think it is?

Yup, it's mushrooms.

Big frickin' mushrooms.

They must be over two stories tall.

Yeah, thereabouts.

Something like this could feed millions. This is wonderful.

Paul: It would be,

if it were the only thing being grown.

- Is he there yet? - No, but his equipment is.

It's already been loaded onto a boat.

Good. I've already told him what he's going after,

but make sure you reiterate it.

- Sure sure. - Listen, Victoria.

This- hold on.

You're excused, Doc.

I am not leaving until you take your heart medication.

( groans )

(sighs)

Listen, Victoria.

If this disaster is somehow linked back to us,

our firm is finished.

I need to know you're gonna be able to tie up all the loose ends.

I'll do my job.

Let's just hope this backwater hillbilly you've hired can do his.

I think he's just arrived.

All right, I'm counting on you.

I'll speak to you later.

- You the Cajun? - What gave it away?

You smell like the swamp.

Yeah well, I ran out of Old Spice.

I'm Victoria Chase. Drake sent me to help out.

- You got my boat? - it's over here.

Gear's on board ready to go.

How about the engine?

Modified to your specs as requested.

Perfect. I'll be back when the job's done.

You do realize what's out there, don't you?

Yeah.

Whoa, what are you doing?

- Coming with you, of course. - Huh-uh, no you're not.

Look, for me this is playtime.

But for you it could be a nightmare.

Besides, I work alone.

Not this time, cowboy. Mr. Drake, your employer,

wants a full report the moment this mess is rectified.

Listen, sister, there is no way you're getting on this boat.

And that's final.

You're loving this, aren't you? All this nature crap.

Yeah.

Everything in the city is dead and cold.

Out here it's alive. You can feel it.

Damn, you really are a hillbilly.

( chuckles ) You're something else.

First you tell me I stink, now you're calling me a hillbilly.

You really don't have to flirt so hard.

( scoffs ) Don't flatter yourself.

So Drake paying you a bundle for this job then?

Yeah, but that's not why I'm doing it.

It's for the challenge.

( laughs ) I'd rather have the cash.

Don't get me wrong. I'm gonna keep the cash.

I can't believe this.

From what I've gathered, they stumbled on a way

to stimulate plant growth by using elements from animal DNA.

- What kind of animals? - Kim: Help me!

- What was that? - There's somebody coming.

Help me, please.

We've got to get out of here. it's coming.

- Wait, what's coming? - ( creature roaring )

That. That's what's coming.

Come on.

- Up. - Come on, get up.

- ( engine starts) - Go!

( roars )

Come on!

(gunshots)

Jeez!

Look there.

My God, is that it?

It's damn sure one of them.

( roars )

Miss Chase, you wanted on this boat. You've got to earn your keep.

Come on over here. Take the wheel.

- Just hold it straight, all right? - Where are you going?

I'm gonna try to kill that while I've got the chance.

( roars )

( explosion )

- ( 93595 ) - ( roars )

( screams )

- Drive! Drive! - What do you think I'm doing?

Well, that took care of him for now.

So?

So I guess playtime is over.

( beeping )

So, you feeling better?

Much better, thank you.

Good enough to answer a few questions?

Dad, please. She's been through a lot.

No, this is important.

The entire island population is at risk.

- So what can you tell us Miss... - Taft.

Kimberly Taft.

And up until 36 hours ago,

I worked on the opposite side of the island on the Drake game preserve.

And what did you do there?

Well, for the last 10 months my brother Stewart and I

were developing a new biocatalyst to increase plant growth.

And at first we experienced incredible success.

Yeah, we saw your handiwork earlier this afternoon.

- Amazing. - Believe me,

it was just the beginning.

After Drake Industries greenlit the project,

my brother assembled a team of the most renowned men in biotechnology.

Due mainly to his revolutionary DNA matrix,

we were able to achieve astounding breakthroughs.

Everything was going along fine

until the day we had the video conference with Jason Drake.

Doctor, I'd say congratulations are in order.

After due deliberation,

I've decided to expand your little operation.

Really? How so?

Well, for starters we're thinking of tripling your funding.

- Tripling? - Mm-hmm.

And who do I have to kill to make that happen?

No one. No, all we want from you

is for you to explore the potential

of the growth matrix on a couple of living animals.

What sort of animals are we talking about here?

Well, Doctor, for now

you can start with these.

This is insane.

Kim: I was always against applying our theories to animals.

But my brother was fearful of losing our funding.

Kimberly, please reconsider.

Imagine what we could do with $3 million in funding.

Stu, it just doesn't feel right.

We never agreed to experiment on living creatures.

So what do we do? Tell him no?

Sacrifice everything we've worked so hard for?

No, we stick to the original agreement.

We are here to grow food, not create genetic Frankensteins.

And what if he won't go along with us?

Then I will pack my bags right now

and get on a plane back to the mainland.

And kill the project?

Kim, I can't do this without you.

- Please. - Okay.

Okay. But you promise me

at the first sign of trouble we pull the plug.

- Fine. - Okay.

- I'll call him right now. - Give me a hug.

Good luck.

Get me Jason Drake on the phone.

What made Drake chose those species?

Kim: Because they're both amphibious

and they have a high immunity to human diseases.

Drake hoped that their DNA could create a vaccine.

A vaccine that would not only make humans

immune to biological agents,

but would make them stronger and more agile as well.

Sounds like Drake wanted himself some super soldiers.

He was twisting my brother's work.

Stewart wanted to feed the world,

not build armies.

What happened next?

Well, we bombarded both animals for several months

in my brother's reactor,

but without any significant results or change.

And then two days ago,

when Stewart went to feed them,

something happened.

Something terrible.

Everybody out now. It's escaped.

(alarm sounding)

Drake: What the hell is going on?

Calm down.

Stewart!

Kim: I called Drake just as all hell broke loose

and he told me to calm down.

Calm down?

The bastard.

Do you know what that thing did to my brother?

All right, let's give the little lady a chance to rest.

- I'm gonna go back to the office. - Okay.

- I'm gonna stick around here. - Let's get some food, yeah?

- Yeah. - Yeah.

Oh, Chaz. This place is amazing.

Yeah, really.

Well, you can't see it now, girls,

but in the morning I have an incredible view

of a private beach that goes on for nearly half a mile.

- Wow. I can hardly wait. - Me too.

Well, let's not rush tomorrow.

We have so much wonderful evening ahead of us.

I'll second that.

And I'll third that.

Is that right?

Absolutely.

Come.

Ah. You know, girls, after shooting for three months,

I really needed this.

So when does the new "Maniac Man" come out?

October, as usual.

Just about the same time I'll be putting together the script

for next year's follow-up.

How many have you done so far?

This will be number six.

Do you think there might be something

for Vicki or me in part seven?

That all depends. How good of a screamer are you?

Oh, I'm the best. Listen.

( screams ) What do you think?

Not bad.

Oh, I can do better than that.

Check this.

( screams )

Good, huh?

Well, I think you have potential, Monica.

But to really make your mark in horror movies,

you've got to give it your all.

What do you mean?

Well, as I tell my actresses up on the set,

you've got to think of the worst nightmare imaginable.

Feel the fear deep within your soul.

Open your eyes, look up,

and scream like your entire life depended on it.

- ( creature growls ) - What was that?

- ( growls ) - ( screaming )

( creature roars )

(dialing )

- ( phone rings) - Second floor.

Yes, this is Doctor Rhodes. We need you down in ICU immediately.

- Doctor Rhodes? - Yes, from Wailua General.

Right away.

- What are you doing? - Something bad.

151

( muffled screaming )

( monitor beeping rapidly )

( flatlines )

Hey, what's going on here?

( chokes )

(grunting )

( Victoria coughs )

( crackles )

Paul, what's going on? Are you okay?

What happened?

That girl you were with, she killed her.

Where is she now?

I don't know. She must have run out.

- I'm going after her. - Okay.

( ringing )

( groans )

Hello.

Mark, I'm sorry to wake you, but I just ran into some big trouble out here.

Yeah, Paul, what's up?

Well, Drake did exactly what I thought. He created some giant monsters

in that think tank of his and now they've gotten loose.

- You positive? - I'm more than positive.

I was nearly trampled by one after I ran into one of his geneticists.

She spilled the beans on the whole story after we escaped.

Okay, look, we have to get her in front of the committee to testify.

How soon can you get her here?

I can't. She's dead.

Shit. How'd that happen?

One of Drake's people did it. Nearly took me out in the process.

So we got nothing.

Actually, before she died I recorded everything she had to say on video.

So I think we've got more than enough to put Drake away for a very long time.

Good. Send me an MP4 of that right away.

I'll get it over to Robertson.

All right, will do. Oh!

Have the bureau put out an all points on a woman named Victoria Chase.

- Who's she? - She's the woman who tried to kill me.

I think she's probably skipped the island by now.

Probably on her way back to see Drake.

Okay, I'll handle her personally.

You take care of yourself. Watch your six.

- All right, thanks. - All right.

What are you doing?

I'm extracting some data.

I'm turning Kim's testimony into an MP4.

( door opens )

Dad, what'd you find out?

Cyanide.

Enough in her to kill 20 people.

I hope your deputies found the bitch who did this.

You ain't gonna find her. That girl's a snake.

She knows how to slither away out of tight spots.

She's probably halfway to the mainland by now.

So what are you saying? We should just let her go?

No, I'm saying we should deal with those two lizards right now.

Otherwise that lady died for nothing.

Sounds like a job for the military.

Firstly, nobody in the military is going to believe you.

And secondly, soldiers ain't no good.

I know lizards. They're pretty smart.

They know when they're being hunted.

They're gonna hunker down, they're gonna lay low.

They can go weeks without eating.

And then just when you ease up and you stop looking,

they're back with a vengeance.

So what do you propose?

Alligator and crocodile are mortal enemies.

I say we bring them together.

We make them fight.

And then hopefully we can take out the winner when it's most vulnerable.

So how do you propose we do that?

( helicopter whirring )

- You all set? - Everything's on board, Sheriff.

What's going on there?

Just sending some hate mail.

What?

It's nothing. I'll tell you about it later.

You know, son, you look like a damn fool in that shirt.

All the instruments are loaded on your choppers.

Thanks, Sheriff.

What kind of rig is it, Logan?

It's a FLIR AAQ-26.

Nice.

Excuse me. Some of us don't speak techno-nerd.

Sorry. FLIR is short for forward looking infrared.

It detects warm objects by measuring thermal energy.

You mean like police helicopters use to track criminals at night?

Exactly. See them lizards, they might be able to hide

under a palm tree or in the water but they ain't gonna hide from this.

Now we fly over them, their heat signature's gonna show up in the screen.

But that still doesn't explain how you're gonna get them in the ring.

A gator and a crocodile are really sensitive to sound.

So once we locate exactly where they are,

we'll surround them, use explosives,

drive them together.

Hopefully not to the center of town.

Hopefully not.

First thing we got to do is we got to find them.

Can't do that sitting here, so let's saddle up.

- Good hunting, partner. - Back at you.

Listen, I called in all my men today and deputized some ranchers.

Just let me know where they are and we'll get after them.

Sounds good.

Sure you don't want to take a nice scenic helicopter ride?

I'll be more help on the ground with my dad.

All right.

Well, you take care of yourself, Officer.

Come here.

Crap, I don't need to see this. Come on.

Okay.

Let's go.

(squeaking )

And here we are, ladies and gentlemen,

at the famed Coco Palms Hotel.

Built over five decades ago in 1953,

the resort ultimately expanded to over 400 rooms.

It became the premier hotel on the island

before Hurricane Iniki left it in ruins in 1992.

During its heyday, with its lush green scenery

and its white sandy beaches,

it brought Hollywood icons like Bing Crosby,

Frank Sinatra and yes, even Elvis Presley to the resort.

Ooh, what room did the king stay in?

I knew someone was going to ask that.

He had one of the private cabanas in the back.

But we'll see that in just a little bit, okay?

Ooh, it almost makes coming here worth it.

Okay, Barn Barn, come on Let’s go now.

( growls )

Anything?

Nothing so far.

Wait a minute. I think I've got something.

Oh yeah, the heat signature is way too big to be anything human.

What's your position?

Just over the northwest corner of the island

right over the old sugar factory.

Gartner, can you take this thing down any lower?

Hell, no way I'm gonna land next to that thing.

( roars )

- You see that, Logan? -I have a visual.

- What now? - Let's get back to the hanger.

I'll get my explosives and a 4x4.

We'll take care of that thing once and for all.

Wait a minute. I think I've got a better idea.

- What's that? - I'll tell you back at base camp.

All right, what do you got?

That sugar factory sits in the middle of a valley.

The only way in or out

is through a tunnel cut through the side of the mountain.

Now if we could find that gator, drive him in there,

then blow the tunnel closed, there'd be no way to escape.

- They'd have to fight. - I like it.

I've got enough C4 in my supplies to start a full-scale landslide.

I'm gonna need someone to help me set the charges.

I love blowing up tunnels. it's a hobby of mine.

You're full of surprises.

How about that sheriff? You hear from him about that gator?

He's got all his units out looking, but so far nothing.

- We're running out of time. - What do you mean?

Well, it's past noon.

Those lizards, they hunt in the hottest part of the day.

But where would it attack?

Wherever there's people.

Okay, come on. Gather around.

The Coco Palms Resort achieved early exposure and fame

in the 1958 film "She Gods of Shark Reef."

Virtually the entire climax of the movie

was shot right here on the grounds or near the hotel.

I remember that film. It was a lot of fun.

But where's this Elvis room you spoke about?

I know, don't worry. I promise we're getting there.

Now if you'll all follow me, please.

Come on.

(sighs)

( roars )

( roars )

Oh shit.

All right, best way to take this thing down would be--

- Hit the stress points. - Exactly.

Drake, he's gonna have to pay for what he did.

He will. I emailed Kim's testimony that I videotaped

to a friend of mine.

What kind of friend?

The serious kind.

Any word from Hawaii?

Just that there's a probability that she'll show up here.

What do we have here?

Female driver, late-model sedan.

- it's got to be our girl. - Let's go.

Victoria, what are you doing here?

You're supposed to be on the island helping the Cajun.

I caught the redeye charter. Got in about an hour ago.

What's wrong?

Had a little trouble clearing up your mess.

All thanks to that hick you hired.

Freeze! FBI!

Put your hands out where I can see them.

Officer, there-- there must be some mistake here.

That's right, Mr. Drake, and you made it.

You've been under investigation for the abuse

of genetic engineering regulations for months now.

We didn't have any evidence until we received an email

that contained a video deposition of one Kimberly Taft.

Does that name ring a bell?

She was found murdered last night in Hawaii.

And guess who the prime suspect is.

- ( gunshot) - ( grunts)

(groaning )

Mr. Drake, are you okay? Are you hit?

No. No, it's my heart.

Okay, I'll get some help. What about her?

Yeah, I'm gonna need a medevac ASAP, possible heart attack.

And send a meat wagon.

- What's going on down there? - Freeze!

- Who are you? - I'm Mr. Drake's nurse.

You're his nurse? Get down here. He's in trouble.

Come on, over here.

Yeah, same address.

- Forensics team too. - Mr. Drake!

Oh God. Keep breathing.

It's gonna be okay. Oh no.

Oh God.

Cassidy: Paul, what's your 20?

Busy setting charges. We're at the old Koloa Tunnel.

- Any news on the gator? - Nothing so far.

And I'm hoping it stays that way.

You and me both.

Okay, come on, folks. This way, please.

All right, gather round. Gather round. Thank you.

Now the Coco Palms Resort had many traditions,

one of them being the ceremonial torch lighting,

also known as the call to feast.

Even today, many resorts on the island chain continue this tradition.

That's great, but is that the Elvis room you told us about over there?

No it's not. The one you're looking for is over there--

the last one to the right.

Bob, let's go check it out.

( screaming )

( roars )

( screaming )

Look there, the Coco Palms.

Looks like we've got trouble.

This is Swanson. We're at the Coco Palms Hotel.

The gator must be around here somewhere.

We need backup immediately.

You ready for this?

I'm your daughter, aren't I?

You're damn right you are. I'm lucky to have you.

I should tell you more often, but I'm a cranky son of a bitch.

- Dad... - Save it, Cass.

We've got work to do.

( roars )

Crap.

Cass, take this. Get it started.

What are you doing? Dad, what are you doing?

Giving it something to remember me by.

Dad, no. Dad, no. Let's go to the car.

- Cass, get out of here. - Dad, come on.

Get out of here now!

Here's looking at you, kid.

Dad, no!

IFFI

(tires squeal )

( sobbing )

Dad.

( roars )

I planted six charges 10 feet apart.

All right, good. I put in five.

What happened to the last one?

- Insurance. - Hmm.

- Paul, you reading me? - Cassidy, what's happening?

- You got those charges ready? - Just finishing up now, why?

I'm heading your way and I'm bringing the gator with me.

You mean that thing's chasing you? Christ, Cass.

Don't do this. Get off the road now.

Dad's dead, Paul. The thing killed him.

- So now I'm gonna kill it. - Cass.

I'll lead that monster into the tunnel. Once I get it there

you and Logan blow it behind me.

Cass? Cassidy, come in.

Cassidy!

Damn it.

( roars )

Sounds hungry.

You know, if that thing comes this way too soon,

it's gonna put Cassidy right between it and the gator.

Cassidy said to blow the tunnel, but she didn't say from what side.

I'm going through to the other end.

I should be able to help her when she gets the gator to the valley.

You with me?

That's why I'm here.

All right.

All right, there. There's the factory.

Come on, let's go.

(siren wailing)

(siren wailing)

All right, it's in. Do it.

All right.

There he is. Right, get back.

He doesn't see us.

( roars )

All right, let's go.

- You okay? - Yeah, I'm fine.

Looks like you got your wish.

(gas hissing )

The fight's almost over. We should hightail it out of here.

No way, not on foot. This is flat ground.

That thing would pick up our scent and be on us in a second.

You still have that extra charge you didn't use?

Yeah. Yeah, but it's not enough to take that down.

- Give it to me. - Why? it's worthless.

See all that? That's concentrated dust and powdered sugar

just hanging in the air waiting for a tiny spark to ignite it.

This all the spark we're ever gonna need.

-( beeps ) - All right, it's do or die time.

Make sure you hit the deck when I toss this thing.

- What about you? - See that trough out there?

I'm hoping there's enough rainwater in there to keep me safe.

But what if there isn't?

Well...

just make sure they bury me in this shirt.

( roars )

- You okay? - Yeah.

(sighs)

You surprise me.

( laughs )

Oh, glad that's over with.

( creatures squealing )

( instrumental music playing )
