ORIGINAL STORY BY THAO TRANG

3
00:00:27,583 --> 00:00:29,333
<i>Since times unknown,</i>

4
00:00:29,416 --> 00:00:34,000
<i>those with ill wills whisper
about an old magic bearing a great power.</i>

5
00:00:34,666 --> 00:00:37,041
<i>They would fight for it
to resurrect the dead,</i>

6
00:00:37,583 --> 00:00:40,958
<i>command the armies of hell,
and have endless riches.</i>

7
00:00:41,458 --> 00:00:42,458
<i>Or even,</i>

8
00:00:42,541 --> 00:00:44,041
<i>to live forever.</i>

9
00:00:49,083 --> 00:00:51,041
<i>People would come to know it</i>

10
00:00:51,125 --> 00:00:52,750
<i>as just three words:</i>

11
00:00:52,833 --> 00:00:55,833
<i>the Skull Wine.</i>

12
00:00:57,000 --> 00:00:59,000
<i>To make this concoction,</i>

13
00:00:59,083 --> 00:01:03,166
<i>its brewer must use
the organs of five people:</i>

14
00:01:03,791 --> 00:01:05,708
<i>the hand of a skilled soul,</i>

15
00:01:05,791 --> 00:01:07,291
<i>the feet of a fast soul,</i>

16
00:01:07,916 --> 00:01:09,833
<i>the liver of a brave soul,</i>

17
00:01:10,458 --> 00:01:12,166
<i>the head of a smart soul,</i>

18
00:01:12,250 --> 00:01:15,375
<i>and... the heart of a wicked soul.</i>

19
00:01:20,166 --> 00:01:22,333
<i>When all the parts are present,</i>

20
00:01:22,416 --> 00:01:25,416
<i>a maiden's fresh blood
must then be offered.</i>

21
00:01:26,625 --> 00:01:29,000
<i>The five who are killed
to brew the Skull Wine</i>

22
00:01:29,083 --> 00:01:32,625
<i>can never board the ferry to the afterlife</i>

23
00:01:32,708 --> 00:01:34,666
<i>and can never be reincarnated.</i>

24
00:01:34,750 --> 00:01:38,458
<i>Oh, soul! Climb aboard!</i>

25
00:01:38,541 --> 00:01:39,666
<i>That is why</i>

26
00:01:39,750 --> 00:01:42,083
<i>forces most unholy are always preying</i>

27
00:01:42,166 --> 00:01:44,250
<i>on those poor unfortunate souls.</i>

28
00:01:44,333 --> 00:01:46,333
<i>They wish to return</i>

29
00:01:46,416 --> 00:01:47,583
<i>and become</i>

30
00:01:47,666 --> 00:01:50,000
<i>alive once more.</i>

31
00:01:57,958 --> 00:01:59,708
Madam, madam!

32
00:02:02,375 --> 00:02:03,791
- Madam!
- Oh, Kham!

33
00:02:04,916 --> 00:02:06,125
Give this...

34
00:02:06,208 --> 00:02:07,208
to Phong...

35
00:02:07,708 --> 00:02:09,416
for... me!

36
00:02:13,291 --> 00:02:15,125
Madam, madam!

37
00:02:17,083 --> 00:02:18,208
Madam!

38
00:02:19,166 --> 00:02:20,958
Madam, madam!

39
00:02:22,625 --> 00:02:23,666
Madam!

40
00:02:25,333 --> 00:02:29,333
Since she was young,

41
00:02:29,416 --> 00:02:33,083
my daughter Phong could see those spirits.

42
00:02:34,125 --> 00:02:35,708
Madam, madam!

43
00:02:35,791 --> 00:02:37,041
Oh, madam!

44
00:02:37,125 --> 00:02:39,750
- Madam...
- Child, you tell my daughter...

45
00:02:41,416 --> 00:02:45,958
that an evil presence

46
00:02:46,750 --> 00:02:51,666
will force her to brew wine.

47
00:02:51,750 --> 00:02:52,583
Madam!

48
00:02:52,666 --> 00:02:54,083
What's wrong, madam?

49
00:02:54,166 --> 00:02:55,958
Please don't die, madam!

50
00:02:56,041 --> 00:02:57,416
Madam!

51
00:03:09,333 --> 00:03:10,166
Mommy!

52
00:03:11,916 --> 00:03:12,791
Oh, Mommy, no!

53
00:03:12,875 --> 00:03:16,375
Mommy, please don't leave me!

54
00:03:16,458 --> 00:03:17,791
Mommy!

55
00:03:19,041 --> 00:03:20,250
Father!

56
00:03:30,583 --> 00:03:32,166
Crimson sweat!

57
00:03:32,250 --> 00:03:34,333
Heavens, Madam Lan has also caught it!

58
00:03:39,000 --> 00:03:40,916
Crimson sweat! Crimson sweat!

59
00:03:41,000 --> 00:03:42,208
Crimson sweat!

60
00:03:58,625 --> 00:04:00,833
15 YEARS LATER

61
00:04:00,916 --> 00:04:03,375
<i>That year, remnants of a bandit group</i>

62
00:04:03,458 --> 00:04:07,625
<i>escaped to the mountains
where it snows year-round.</i>

63
00:04:07,708 --> 00:04:11,166
<i>An isolated community was then built</i>

64
00:04:11,250 --> 00:04:12,541
<i>and then so named,</i>

65
00:04:12,625 --> 00:04:14,000
<i>Hellbound Village.</i>

66
00:04:15,375 --> 00:04:17,000
<i>Though hidden high up,</i>

67
00:04:17,083 --> 00:04:20,833
<i>the people still lived
like they did on the flatlands,</i>

68
00:04:21,708 --> 00:04:23,875
<i>Though everything seemed so calm,</i>

69
00:04:23,958 --> 00:04:26,833
<i>who could have known that
the land was cursed</i>

70
00:04:26,916 --> 00:04:28,875
<i>and no one could leave the village,</i>

71
00:04:28,958 --> 00:04:30,666
<i>except for the family of the chief.</i>

72
00:04:31,625 --> 00:04:34,000
<i>The villagers believe that
the moment the sun sets,</i>

73
00:04:34,083 --> 00:04:36,000
<i>dark forces will emerge,</i>

74
00:04:36,083 --> 00:04:40,583
<i>like fireflies ready to steal life
from both humans and demons.</i>

75
00:04:43,791 --> 00:04:44,833
<i>But despite that risk,</i>

76
00:04:44,916 --> 00:04:47,916
<i>they still host feasts
and rituals in the night</i>

77
00:04:48,000 --> 00:04:52,750
<i>because they believe
the dark will help hide ancient sins.</i>

78
00:05:06,291 --> 00:05:07,666
Let me join in!

79
00:05:10,458 --> 00:05:13,416
Hey, Duong! Come over and have a glass.

80
00:05:13,500 --> 00:05:14,541
Come over!

81
00:05:21,041 --> 00:05:26,166
<i>Listen to the singing cicada,
the poem of Hellbound.</i>

82
00:05:26,250 --> 00:05:28,750
Eggplants turn round.

83
00:05:28,833 --> 00:05:31,083
Bamboos flower.

84
00:05:31,166 --> 00:05:33,750
Endless wonder.

85
00:05:33,833 --> 00:05:36,291
Risky to tread.

86
00:05:36,375 --> 00:05:39,916
Quiet, quiet, quiet!

87
00:05:40,000 --> 00:05:41,875
That poem is as old as time,

88
00:05:41,958 --> 00:05:44,083
- yet you all still sing it?
- Cheers, all!

89
00:05:44,166 --> 00:05:46,041
Just stop it.

90
00:05:46,125 --> 00:05:48,458
Come and see the grasshopper I just made!

91
00:05:48,541 --> 00:05:51,458
It's my gift for Miss Phong, all right?

92
00:05:51,541 --> 00:05:52,500
You crafty fatty,

93
00:05:52,583 --> 00:05:54,833
but the grasshopper is the
only thing you can make!

94
00:05:56,083 --> 00:05:57,708
Please, I beg you all!

95
00:05:58,291 --> 00:05:59,541
Enough with the fighting.

96
00:06:00,375 --> 00:06:01,666
Soon, we will see

97
00:06:01,750 --> 00:06:04,166
a very beautiful bride, don't you think?

98
00:06:04,750 --> 00:06:07,375
We like to see your puppetry
down the stream like before.

99
00:06:10,166 --> 00:06:12,458
The puppet show must be
in the village yard.

100
00:06:13,708 --> 00:06:17,125
Let Miss Phong finish her day
then I'll ask the elders

101
00:06:17,208 --> 00:06:20,250
to let me perform in the village yard
so you can see my show.

102
00:06:20,333 --> 00:06:21,375
Yes, sir!

103
00:06:24,500 --> 00:06:25,458
Who's there?

104
00:06:26,208 --> 00:06:27,291
All stop.

105
00:06:33,083 --> 00:06:34,375
Who is it?

106
00:06:44,500 --> 00:06:45,791
There's a woman in red

107
00:06:45,875 --> 00:06:47,291
with a girl, over there!

108
00:06:52,541 --> 00:06:54,208
You must be seeing things.

109
00:06:55,750 --> 00:06:57,041
No one is there.

110
00:06:57,916 --> 00:06:59,166
We should head back.

111
00:07:01,541 --> 00:07:02,708
A ghost!

112
00:07:02,791 --> 00:07:03,791
Child, oh, child!

113
00:07:03,875 --> 00:07:05,708
- Your father's here!
- Mr. Dan!

114
00:07:05,791 --> 00:07:07,000
Why are you here?

115
00:07:07,083 --> 00:07:08,250
I'm escorting my daughter!

116
00:07:08,333 --> 00:07:10,250
A ghost! A ghost!

117
00:07:10,333 --> 00:07:11,416
Curse you, man!

118
00:07:11,500 --> 00:07:14,166
Retrieve the bride without a mask

119
00:07:14,250 --> 00:07:16,458
and the fireflies will get your soul!

120
00:07:17,208 --> 00:07:18,041
Let's go.

121
00:07:18,125 --> 00:07:20,500
If we miss the blessed hour,
the village chief will be angry!

122
00:07:21,916 --> 00:07:23,625
Come on, dearest.

123
00:07:23,708 --> 00:07:25,291
Father and the villagers are waiting.

124
00:07:25,916 --> 00:07:27,000
Go on.

125
00:07:27,083 --> 00:07:28,333
We must continue.

126
00:07:45,375 --> 00:07:46,208
A ghost.

127
00:07:51,166 --> 00:07:52,000
A ghost.

128
00:07:53,625 --> 00:07:54,750
A ghost...

129
00:07:57,625 --> 00:07:59,666
The newlyweds are back!

130
00:08:03,500 --> 00:08:05,458
The newlyweds are here!

131
00:08:07,208 --> 00:08:09,416
The newlyweds are here, everyone!

132
00:08:14,250 --> 00:08:16,416
The bride is beautiful!

133
00:08:16,500 --> 00:08:18,458
So gorgeous, Chief!

134
00:08:28,041 --> 00:08:29,416
Hellbound Village,

135
00:08:29,500 --> 00:08:32,333
ever since, has followed the tradition

136
00:08:32,416 --> 00:08:36,208
to only celebrate at night
while wearing rat masks.

137
00:08:41,791 --> 00:08:43,375
I give thanks to all the attendees

138
00:08:43,458 --> 00:08:47,666
of the wedding
of Trieu Thi Phong and Tran Sang,

139
00:08:47,750 --> 00:08:49,916
my daughter and my son-in-law.

140
00:08:50,000 --> 00:08:52,375
- Rejoice, rejoice!
- The union of these youths

141
00:08:52,458 --> 00:08:55,250
is also a great beginning
for us villagers.

142
00:08:56,375 --> 00:08:57,541
You both

143
00:08:58,541 --> 00:09:00,833
must be dutiful to all

144
00:09:00,916 --> 00:09:02,875
and not act on wicked thoughts

145
00:09:02,958 --> 00:09:05,250
that could sully your families' names.

146
00:09:05,333 --> 00:09:06,250
Do you understand clearly?

147
00:09:06,333 --> 00:09:07,791
- Yes, Father!
- Yes!

148
00:09:15,166 --> 00:09:16,958
Today is a happy day for you both.

149
00:09:17,625 --> 00:09:19,708
I have prepared a gift,

150
00:09:19,791 --> 00:09:23,583
these twin bracelets
which I made from the spores of ferns

151
00:09:23,666 --> 00:09:26,000
to soothe and bless you

152
00:09:26,083 --> 00:09:29,000
and to protect you

153
00:09:29,083 --> 00:09:31,166
and the villagers. Do you understand?

154
00:09:32,000 --> 00:09:34,083
To the bride and groom!

155
00:09:34,166 --> 00:09:35,875
- We thank you, sir!
- We thank you!

156
00:09:53,458 --> 00:09:55,000
It's the woman in red again!

157
00:09:55,083 --> 00:09:56,583
She is here right now!

158
00:09:57,291 --> 00:09:58,625
- A ghost! A demon!
- Who? Where is she?

159
00:09:58,708 --> 00:10:00,125
Demon, demon!

160
00:10:00,708 --> 00:10:02,041
- Ghost! Ghoul!
- Mr. Dan!

161
00:10:02,125 --> 00:10:02,958
Demon, ghoul!

162
00:10:03,041 --> 00:10:03,916
- Dan!
- Mr. Dan!

163
00:10:05,041 --> 00:10:07,250
You're drinking and blabbering on again.

164
00:10:07,333 --> 00:10:08,375
My child said she saw it.

165
00:10:08,458 --> 00:10:09,875
A ghost, a ghost!

166
00:10:09,958 --> 00:10:11,333
Mr. Dan!

167
00:10:11,416 --> 00:10:12,750
No more nonsense.

168
00:10:12,833 --> 00:10:14,583
My daughter said she saw one.

169
00:10:14,666 --> 00:10:15,541
- Hello, sir!
- Mr. Dan!

170
00:10:15,625 --> 00:10:16,541
On the way back,

171
00:10:16,625 --> 00:10:18,541
I saw a woman who frightened me terribly.

172
00:10:18,625 --> 00:10:20,291
She was not from our village.

173
00:10:21,583 --> 00:10:23,958
- Not from our village?
- Is that so?

174
00:10:24,041 --> 00:10:25,916
What brat or bitch dares to enter here?

175
00:10:26,000 --> 00:10:28,333
- That's right!
- How dare they!

176
00:10:28,416 --> 00:10:29,791
How could an outsider know about us?

177
00:10:29,875 --> 00:10:31,666
Sang, we have to get to the village gate.

178
00:10:31,750 --> 00:10:33,833
- Phong, but no one's there.
- Sang!

179
00:10:33,916 --> 00:10:35,166
What is it?

180
00:10:36,833 --> 00:10:39,041
Father! Please let me handle this.

181
00:10:40,958 --> 00:10:42,333
Everyone!

182
00:10:42,416 --> 00:10:44,958
We do not know if an outsider has entered.

183
00:10:45,041 --> 00:10:46,333
But to ensure your safety,

184
00:10:46,416 --> 00:10:49,375
I, together with some others,
will take a look around.

185
00:10:50,416 --> 00:10:52,125
- That's right!
- You should!

186
00:10:52,208 --> 00:10:53,458
You stay home with your father.

187
00:10:53,541 --> 00:10:54,625
I will go.

188
00:10:55,125 --> 00:10:56,750
Go! Move!

189
00:10:56,833 --> 00:10:57,875
- Move!
- Wait, wait...

190
00:10:57,958 --> 00:10:59,333
- I didn't want to go.
- A ghost, a ghost!

191
00:10:59,416 --> 00:11:00,791
A ghost, a ghost!

192
00:11:00,875 --> 00:11:01,791
A ghost, a ghost!

193
00:11:07,791 --> 00:11:08,791
No one is here.

194
00:11:09,291 --> 00:11:10,958
Is Phong seeing things?

195
00:11:11,041 --> 00:11:13,958
Honestly, if someone's here
with no torch or no light,

196
00:11:14,041 --> 00:11:16,291
if the demons don't get them,
the fireflies will.

197
00:11:20,208 --> 00:11:22,875
All right, how about we all
do another round?

198
00:11:24,458 --> 00:11:25,416
Hey!

199
00:11:26,708 --> 00:11:28,708
You've only been
the chief's son-in-law for half a day

200
00:11:29,583 --> 00:11:30,500
and already you're barking orders?

201
00:11:32,041 --> 00:11:34,458
- Miss Can, you're misunders...
- Enough!

202
00:11:36,833 --> 00:11:38,291
We've been searching

203
00:11:38,375 --> 00:11:39,500
and haven't seen a damn thing.

204
00:11:41,125 --> 00:11:43,625
If we stay here any longer,
our torches will go out,

205
00:11:43,708 --> 00:11:45,500
the fireflies will come,

206
00:11:46,500 --> 00:11:47,500
and we'll all die.

207
00:11:49,958 --> 00:11:51,250
Let's go home!

208
00:12:02,125 --> 00:12:04,458
I think some people are drunk today,

209
00:12:04,541 --> 00:12:06,083
so they'd be feistier than usual.

210
00:12:06,166 --> 00:12:07,625
Nothing personal, sir.

211
00:12:35,000 --> 00:12:36,041
Phong!

212
00:12:36,708 --> 00:12:37,958
Kham!

213
00:12:43,625 --> 00:12:44,541
Ah!

214
00:12:45,083 --> 00:12:46,625
I heard there was an outsider here,

215
00:12:47,916 --> 00:12:49,708
so I'm here to check things out.

216
00:12:50,708 --> 00:12:51,958
Is everything well?

217
00:12:52,666 --> 00:12:53,916
I'm not so sure.

218
00:12:55,083 --> 00:12:57,125
But why is it that I didn't see you
at the village square?

219
00:12:59,375 --> 00:13:00,625
I felt a bit unwell.

220
00:13:02,250 --> 00:13:04,291
And I was afraid

221
00:13:04,916 --> 00:13:06,333
if something might have happened

222
00:13:06,416 --> 00:13:08,875
that I'd upset your big day with Sang.

223
00:13:16,750 --> 00:13:18,333
- Phong!
- Phong!

224
00:13:19,208 --> 00:13:20,458
Are you well, dear?

225
00:13:21,041 --> 00:13:21,875
Phong.

226
00:13:22,375 --> 00:13:23,958
I heard you are unwell, Kham?

227
00:13:24,875 --> 00:13:26,833
Yes, but I also heard the villager say

228
00:13:26,916 --> 00:13:28,333
that a stranger is in the village.

229
00:13:28,416 --> 00:13:29,625
I plan to search for them.

230
00:13:29,708 --> 00:13:31,083
There is no one here.

231
00:13:32,250 --> 00:13:34,791
Some other villagers and I looked around,

232
00:13:34,875 --> 00:13:36,125
but we didn't see anyone.

233
00:13:37,125 --> 00:13:38,125
But I swear,

234
00:13:38,208 --> 00:13:40,500
I've seen the woman in red twice

235
00:13:41,083 --> 00:13:42,250
and the girl too,

236
00:13:42,333 --> 00:13:43,708
once in the cypress woods

237
00:13:43,791 --> 00:13:44,750
and once in the village square.

238
00:13:45,875 --> 00:13:47,166
She was so terrifying.

239
00:13:48,875 --> 00:13:50,125
Don't worry, darling.

240
00:13:50,625 --> 00:13:52,000
I'm certain you're mistaken.

241
00:13:56,583 --> 00:13:59,625
But it is also possible
that someone has planned this

242
00:14:00,666 --> 00:14:02,500
to ruin our wedding ceremony.

243
00:14:03,250 --> 00:14:04,500
If it's true

244
00:14:04,583 --> 00:14:06,500
that an outsider is here,

245
00:14:06,583 --> 00:14:08,166
it will be a grave matter.

246
00:14:08,958 --> 00:14:10,208
Greetings, sir!

247
00:14:10,916 --> 00:14:12,083
All right, Kham.

248
00:14:12,750 --> 00:14:14,125
You go home and rest.

249
00:14:15,333 --> 00:14:17,375
Our household will handle this.

250
00:14:18,166 --> 00:14:19,666
- Yes!
- Let's go inside.

251
00:14:21,125 --> 00:14:22,291
Come on!

252
00:14:46,041 --> 00:14:50,958
<i>Oh, soul! Climb aboard!</i>

253
00:14:57,500 --> 00:15:02,333
<i>Oh, soul! Climb aboard!</i>

254
00:15:04,708 --> 00:15:06,125
Sang! Sang!

255
00:15:06,208 --> 00:15:07,291
Wake up!

256
00:15:12,041 --> 00:15:13,250
It's the ferry woman.

257
00:15:16,083 --> 00:15:17,041
Phong!

258
00:15:17,583 --> 00:15:20,250
I know you've been worried
these past days about our special day.

259
00:15:23,083 --> 00:15:24,916
I'd like to rest more.

260
00:15:25,833 --> 00:15:27,458
Stop running away with your thoughts.

261
00:15:31,458 --> 00:15:32,333
Darling.

262
00:15:40,833 --> 00:15:41,750
Sleep, my dear.

263
00:15:45,416 --> 00:15:46,333
Sleep now.

264
00:16:07,250 --> 00:16:08,291
Duong!

265
00:16:08,375 --> 00:16:10,666
Come get firewood with me!

266
00:16:15,125 --> 00:16:17,583
It's pouring rain today!

267
00:16:17,666 --> 00:16:18,791
You're...

268
00:16:18,875 --> 00:16:20,708
not entering until it's dry?

269
00:16:22,666 --> 00:16:24,333
You shouldn't drink so much.

270
00:16:24,416 --> 00:16:26,041
You're lucky it rained today.

271
00:16:26,125 --> 00:16:29,041
Otherwise, since you're sleeping in,
I might have to hit you!

272
00:16:55,750 --> 00:16:57,625
Oh, Duong!

273
00:16:57,708 --> 00:16:58,958
Duong!

274
00:16:59,041 --> 00:17:01,333
Duong!

275
00:17:01,416 --> 00:17:03,666
Duong, child! Wake up!

276
00:17:06,208 --> 00:17:07,416
Duong!

277
00:17:08,375 --> 00:17:09,666
Duong...

278
00:17:10,416 --> 00:17:12,291
Oh, Duong! Duong!

279
00:17:24,250 --> 00:17:25,291
Duong was strangled to death,

280
00:17:25,375 --> 00:17:27,250
and both his hands were chopped off.

281
00:17:27,333 --> 00:17:29,500
They might have been removed postmortem.

282
00:17:30,541 --> 00:17:33,083
But who could have killed him
so gruesomely, sir?

283
00:17:33,583 --> 00:17:35,083
The cut was not clean,

284
00:17:36,041 --> 00:17:38,125
meaning the culprit
is not skilled with a knife.

285
00:17:49,375 --> 00:17:50,625
Look here!

286
00:17:52,041 --> 00:17:53,750
The puppet's hands are also gone.

287
00:17:53,833 --> 00:17:54,916
Oh, sir...

288
00:17:58,583 --> 00:18:00,416
Sir Chan, I must ask,
have you finished inspecting the body?

289
00:18:01,250 --> 00:18:03,333
The villagers would like to enshroud him.

290
00:18:04,208 --> 00:18:05,916
It's unkind to leave Duong like that.

291
00:18:16,041 --> 00:18:16,875
Mr. Dan!

292
00:18:21,500 --> 00:18:23,250
It's the work of demons.

293
00:18:25,125 --> 00:18:27,250
Demons will kill all of you.

294
00:18:28,541 --> 00:18:29,583
You did it, didn't you?

295
00:18:32,458 --> 00:18:33,541
How about you?

296
00:18:36,000 --> 00:18:37,416
Or are you the killer?

297
00:18:38,083 --> 00:18:39,500
You're the killer!

298
00:18:39,583 --> 00:18:41,125
Grab Mr. Dan right now.

299
00:18:41,833 --> 00:18:43,458
Slap him once to shut him up!

300
00:18:44,375 --> 00:18:47,666
Yes, hit me, like you did
to your father and mother!

301
00:18:47,750 --> 00:18:49,791
- Be silent!
- Demons will kill all of you!

302
00:18:49,875 --> 00:18:51,833
Demons will kill all of you!

303
00:18:51,916 --> 00:18:52,916
Murderer!

304
00:18:53,000 --> 00:18:54,916
Demons will kill you all, murderers!

305
00:19:12,208 --> 00:19:13,583
<i>Six spells of day,</i>

306
00:19:14,583 --> 00:19:16,333
<i>then five come at night.</i>

307
00:19:16,416 --> 00:19:17,958
<i>Ghouls are outside,</i>

308
00:19:18,666 --> 00:19:19,958
<i>so watch your souls.</i>

309
00:19:27,750 --> 00:19:28,875
What is it, my dear?

310
00:19:29,541 --> 00:19:30,958
I'm not quite sure.

311
00:19:31,041 --> 00:19:32,750
What are these scratches on your body?

312
00:19:34,166 --> 00:19:35,416
I was careless, I think.

313
00:19:50,791 --> 00:19:54,125
Our union was supposed
to bring good omens to this place.

314
00:19:56,125 --> 00:19:58,166
But it took just one night for...

315
00:19:58,250 --> 00:20:00,125
Nobody wanted those things to happen.

316
00:20:01,541 --> 00:20:03,125
- Also, it is not your f...
- Sang!

317
00:20:03,916 --> 00:20:06,041
Could it be that the woman I saw yesterday

318
00:20:06,750 --> 00:20:08,541
has something to do with Duong's death?

319
00:20:11,083 --> 00:20:12,125
Phong!

320
00:20:14,125 --> 00:20:15,583
You must think rationally now.

321
00:20:16,541 --> 00:20:18,791
How could outsiders find our village?

322
00:20:19,666 --> 00:20:21,125
As for the death of Duong,

323
00:20:22,166 --> 00:20:24,250
I don't have any idea
who could have killed him.

324
00:20:24,333 --> 00:20:26,500
But I'm certain it wasn't an outsider.

325
00:20:27,833 --> 00:20:29,708
Duong tends to steal here and there!

326
00:20:30,458 --> 00:20:32,791
But I don't think
that warrants such a death.

327
00:20:37,458 --> 00:20:39,291
It's all speculation
at this point, darling.

328
00:20:41,375 --> 00:20:43,125
But you shouldn't overthink it.

329
00:20:50,500 --> 00:20:52,375
We are now husband and wife.

330
00:20:57,541 --> 00:20:59,833
Remember when were we little,
I made a promise to you?

331
00:21:01,583 --> 00:21:02,625
Yes.

332
00:21:03,500 --> 00:21:06,333
You said that when we were older,
you would marry me.

333
00:21:34,291 --> 00:21:35,666
Madam Tam's puppets sure are pretty.

334
00:21:41,166 --> 00:21:44,166
Every time I look at these things here,

335
00:21:44,250 --> 00:21:46,333
I miss Duong so much.

336
00:21:48,083 --> 00:21:49,375
That poor boy...

337
00:21:50,375 --> 00:21:51,916
what a kind heart,

338
00:21:54,500 --> 00:21:56,333
what a grim end.

339
00:21:57,291 --> 00:22:00,125
At the wedding,
did Duong act strange, ma'am?

340
00:22:02,250 --> 00:22:03,291
No!

341
00:22:04,750 --> 00:22:06,666
He was still playing with the youngsters.

342
00:22:07,250 --> 00:22:10,375
That day, Duong made this puppet for me.

343
00:22:10,458 --> 00:22:12,041
He promised us

344
00:22:12,125 --> 00:22:14,166
he would ask the elders

345
00:22:14,250 --> 00:22:16,875
for permission to perform puppet shows.

346
00:22:19,083 --> 00:22:21,375
Now that he's gone...

347
00:22:22,000 --> 00:22:24,666
I think the puppets will miss him!

348
00:22:33,083 --> 00:22:34,666
I feel sorry for Minh.

349
00:22:35,416 --> 00:22:36,958
That child is always ill.

350
00:22:37,500 --> 00:22:38,708
It really makes me worry.

351
00:22:52,958 --> 00:22:54,750
- Kham!
- Oh, Phong?

352
00:22:56,333 --> 00:22:57,583
Be with you in a bit!

353
00:23:01,333 --> 00:23:02,208
What is afflicting Minh

354
00:23:02,291 --> 00:23:04,958
must be treated slowly
before it can leave, ma'am.

355
00:23:05,833 --> 00:23:07,166
I thank you.

356
00:23:08,291 --> 00:23:10,916
My illness troubles you so, Kham!

357
00:23:11,000 --> 00:23:12,416
Miss Minh, you're too formal.

358
00:23:13,791 --> 00:23:15,125
Healing the villagers

359
00:23:15,208 --> 00:23:17,208
has been the duty of my household.

360
00:23:18,791 --> 00:23:20,083
Please drop the "Miss", Kham.

361
00:23:22,208 --> 00:23:23,375
It makes us strangers.

362
00:23:25,875 --> 00:23:27,458
- Sister Minh!
- Huh?

363
00:23:27,541 --> 00:23:29,708
It's fun when Kham is here, right?

364
00:23:30,291 --> 00:23:32,708
Kham is plenty busy.

365
00:23:35,291 --> 00:23:36,958
I see that Minh is a good soul.

366
00:23:37,750 --> 00:23:39,375
She has eyes for you.

367
00:23:39,458 --> 00:23:41,125
You better not let the moment pass you by.

368
00:23:48,416 --> 00:23:50,291
I once did just that to someone else.

369
00:23:53,583 --> 00:23:54,875
And now,

370
00:23:57,125 --> 00:23:59,166
frankly, I've stopped thinking about love.

371
00:24:12,083 --> 00:24:13,375
My daughter.

372
00:24:13,458 --> 00:24:14,666
Where are you off to now?

373
00:24:15,541 --> 00:24:17,541
The ghosts might get you. Go!

374
00:24:17,625 --> 00:24:19,958
- Come with your father!
- Mr. Dan!

375
00:24:20,041 --> 00:24:22,458
I am Phong, not your daughter, sir.

376
00:24:22,541 --> 00:24:25,875
- Come! Come with me!
- Mr. Dan!

377
00:24:25,958 --> 00:24:27,000
Are you all right, Phong?

378
00:24:30,375 --> 00:24:31,625
You bullied me.

379
00:24:33,250 --> 00:24:34,833
You all bullied me.

380
00:24:34,916 --> 00:24:36,375
I will tell the ghosts.

381
00:24:36,458 --> 00:24:37,583
They'll get you all.

382
00:24:44,166 --> 00:24:45,750
Phong is a married woman.

383
00:24:47,791 --> 00:24:49,166
Kham, do you understand that?

384
00:24:51,208 --> 00:24:53,416
Phong and I met at Madam Tam's place.

385
00:24:54,208 --> 00:24:56,541
We were both heading the same way,

386
00:24:56,625 --> 00:24:58,833
chatting about what happened to Duong.

387
00:24:59,458 --> 00:25:00,833
Please don't misunderstand.

388
00:25:06,333 --> 00:25:08,000
Regarding the death of Duong,

389
00:25:08,916 --> 00:25:10,708
you needn't mind it, Kham.

390
00:25:13,625 --> 00:25:14,916
Moreover,

391
00:25:15,000 --> 00:25:16,500
touch not what is not yours.

392
00:25:17,166 --> 00:25:19,708
Your actions may be thoughtless,
but they'll have people thinking.

393
00:25:21,291 --> 00:25:23,333
What do you mean by
"touch not what is not yours"?

394
00:25:24,250 --> 00:25:26,833
I was on the same road as Kham,
and we were just talking.

395
00:25:28,916 --> 00:25:30,875
Kham is our friend!

396
00:25:47,458 --> 00:25:48,291
Phong!

397
00:25:51,208 --> 00:25:53,125
I'm very sorry about earlier.

398
00:25:56,250 --> 00:25:57,500
But honestly,

399
00:25:58,500 --> 00:26:00,375
I don't think
we should stay here any longer.

400
00:26:01,166 --> 00:26:02,333
Someone we know just died.

401
00:26:02,416 --> 00:26:03,708
How could we get up and leave?

402
00:26:06,500 --> 00:26:08,458
I could never guess
what you're thinking, dear.

403
00:26:20,416 --> 00:26:22,541
It's only because I care for you

404
00:26:24,000 --> 00:26:26,916
that I'm thinking of a way
for us both to leave this place.

405
00:26:30,708 --> 00:26:33,333
Life out there,
it'll be better than in here.

406
00:26:35,208 --> 00:26:36,375
But my father has spoken.

407
00:26:36,458 --> 00:26:39,000
No one except my family
can descend the mountain.

408
00:26:41,083 --> 00:26:42,333
Even though

409
00:26:44,125 --> 00:26:45,250
I have become your husband,

410
00:26:48,541 --> 00:26:50,208
I'm still an outsider?

411
00:26:52,041 --> 00:26:53,166
Sang!

412
00:27:47,666 --> 00:27:49,333
<i>Kham!</i>

413
00:27:50,708 --> 00:27:53,583
<i>Kham, Kham!</i>

414
00:27:55,208 --> 00:27:58,375
<i>Oh, Kham!</i>

415
00:28:00,166 --> 00:28:02,125
<i>You are Kham, correct?</i>

416
00:28:02,208 --> 00:28:04,750
<i>What are you holding in your hand?</i>

417
00:28:07,125 --> 00:28:08,500
Kham!

418
00:28:10,916 --> 00:28:12,291
This is yours!

419
00:28:12,375 --> 00:28:13,875
Remember your doses.

420
00:28:13,958 --> 00:28:15,583
Don't forget any, you hear?

421
00:28:24,166 --> 00:28:26,041
- I'll be off!
- All right.

422
00:29:06,708 --> 00:29:08,875
Mother, please help me!

423
00:29:10,875 --> 00:29:12,416
Sister Minh, help!

424
00:29:20,666 --> 00:29:21,750
Mother!

425
00:29:22,375 --> 00:29:24,208
Sister Minh, help!

426
00:29:25,666 --> 00:29:26,916
Mother!

427
00:29:57,041 --> 00:30:02,333
<i>Oh, soul! Climb aboard!</i>

428
00:30:04,458 --> 00:30:09,000
<i>Oh, soul! Climb aboard!</i>

429
00:30:18,833 --> 00:30:20,125
Sang!

430
00:30:21,000 --> 00:30:22,041
Sang!

431
00:30:25,041 --> 00:30:27,166
I just saw little Huong
in front of our house.

432
00:30:28,041 --> 00:30:29,291
But it was strange!

433
00:30:30,833 --> 00:30:33,291
It was quite late,
so why would she be there?

434
00:30:57,333 --> 00:31:00,250
Little Huong is missing!
Quickly, let's find her.

435
00:31:00,333 --> 00:31:02,541
Little Huong is missing!
Quickly, let's find her.

436
00:31:02,625 --> 00:31:05,791
Little Huong is missing.
Madam Tam has searched all over.

437
00:31:07,208 --> 00:31:08,458
I'll join the rest to look for her.

438
00:31:08,541 --> 00:31:09,916
- Move out, all!
- Let's go! Let's go!

439
00:31:10,000 --> 00:31:12,583
Little Huong is missing!
Quickly, let's find her.

440
00:31:12,666 --> 00:31:14,208
- Little Huong is missing!
- Huong!

441
00:31:14,291 --> 00:31:15,291
Quickly, let's find her.

442
00:31:15,375 --> 00:31:17,458
Huong!

443
00:31:28,125 --> 00:31:30,333
- Huong!
- Huong!

444
00:31:30,416 --> 00:31:32,958
- Huong!
- Huong!

445
00:31:33,041 --> 00:31:35,583
- Oh, Huong!
- Huong...

446
00:31:36,208 --> 00:31:39,500
- Huong!
- Oh, Huong! Where are you?

447
00:31:39,583 --> 00:31:41,333
Little Huong is dead!

448
00:31:41,416 --> 00:31:44,875
- Little Huong is dead!
- Heavens, why here?

449
00:31:44,958 --> 00:31:47,083
- Huong, my child!
- Huong!

450
00:31:48,916 --> 00:31:50,000
My daughter!

451
00:31:50,083 --> 00:31:52,125
- My child!
- Madam Tam, please come with me.

452
00:31:52,208 --> 00:31:54,291
You had better take
Huong's family home right away.

453
00:31:54,375 --> 00:31:56,500
Why must you suffer so much, my child?

454
00:31:56,583 --> 00:31:57,583
Let's go!

455
00:31:57,666 --> 00:31:59,333
Child, come back to me!

456
00:31:59,416 --> 00:32:02,208
- Leave, let's go all.
- Please let me die!

457
00:32:02,291 --> 00:32:03,916
My child!

458
00:32:05,541 --> 00:32:07,916
- Madam Tam...
- My child!

459
00:32:08,000 --> 00:32:08,958
Oh, child!

460
00:32:09,041 --> 00:32:12,041
- Return to your mother!
- Madam Tam, listen here...

461
00:32:12,875 --> 00:32:15,708
How could little Huong die so horribly?

462
00:32:19,708 --> 00:32:21,541
Little Huong was strangled to death.

463
00:32:22,458 --> 00:32:23,791
Her eyes were gouged out.

464
00:32:23,875 --> 00:32:25,625
Her legs were also severed.

465
00:32:25,708 --> 00:32:27,500
They're the same type of cuts
as those on Duong's body.

466
00:32:28,333 --> 00:32:31,250
Perhaps she died just a few hours ago.

467
00:32:32,583 --> 00:32:35,875
- Huong! Oh, Huong!
- Who, who killed my child?

468
00:32:35,958 --> 00:32:38,916
Who here killed my child?

469
00:32:40,166 --> 00:32:41,083
My dear!

470
00:32:41,166 --> 00:32:42,791
Let me go!

471
00:32:42,875 --> 00:32:44,458
Let me go! I want to be with her.

472
00:32:44,541 --> 00:32:46,541
Huong, you're moving on without us, dear!

473
00:32:47,958 --> 00:32:49,375
My child!

474
00:32:49,875 --> 00:32:52,666
My child! Why must you leave us so soon?!

475
00:32:57,666 --> 00:32:58,875
Huong!

476
00:33:03,708 --> 00:33:04,958
Little Huong's puppet

477
00:33:05,750 --> 00:33:07,708
is also legless.

478
00:33:07,791 --> 00:33:10,041
Duong's also had parts missing.

479
00:33:12,250 --> 00:33:13,666
Damn it all!

480
00:33:14,166 --> 00:33:16,083
She was only a child!

481
00:33:16,583 --> 00:33:18,500
Who? Which one of you?

482
00:33:19,083 --> 00:33:21,583
Show yourself and face my fists.

483
00:33:28,458 --> 00:33:31,750
Such joy! Two lives are now gone.

484
00:33:32,750 --> 00:33:33,833
You deserve it!

485
00:33:33,916 --> 00:33:34,875
You deserve it!

486
00:33:35,791 --> 00:33:37,583
Everyone, grab him!

487
00:33:38,166 --> 00:33:39,375
You deserve it!

488
00:33:44,666 --> 00:33:45,583
My child!

489
00:33:52,416 --> 00:33:54,625
The girl died,
precisely as my son had said.

490
00:33:55,458 --> 00:33:56,875
I am afraid

491
00:33:56,958 --> 00:33:59,333
all these deaths have to do with...

492
00:33:59,958 --> 00:34:00,916
Go on.

493
00:34:03,041 --> 00:34:04,083
resurrection through murder.

494
00:34:05,166 --> 00:34:08,500
Though witchcraft was said
to be lost to time,

495
00:34:08,583 --> 00:34:11,500
wicked forces could possess the living
to achieve their goals.

496
00:34:12,666 --> 00:34:15,208
But what dark art could be this cruel?

497
00:34:20,250 --> 00:34:21,916
I'm not sure.

498
00:34:22,958 --> 00:34:25,416
It's also possible that these two deaths

499
00:34:25,500 --> 00:34:26,750
were the work of one person.

500
00:34:27,916 --> 00:34:30,083
As village chief, you must do something!

501
00:34:33,791 --> 00:34:34,875
Could we all leave?

502
00:34:35,750 --> 00:34:38,125
It has only been a few days,
and two people are dead.

503
00:34:38,208 --> 00:34:39,333
Maybe tomorrow,

504
00:34:39,416 --> 00:34:41,750
any one of us would be the next to fall.

505
00:34:41,833 --> 00:34:43,708
If we stay, there is only death.

506
00:34:43,791 --> 00:34:45,375
Staying here will doom us all.

507
00:34:47,666 --> 00:34:49,208
I have told you.

508
00:34:51,333 --> 00:34:52,583
Not just anyone can leave.

509
00:34:53,416 --> 00:34:55,708
If you doubt me, try and go.

510
00:34:56,708 --> 00:34:57,916
My child!

511
00:34:58,625 --> 00:35:00,250
Return to me!

512
00:35:00,958 --> 00:35:02,666
Come back to your family.

513
00:35:21,916 --> 00:35:24,541
Mother, have some congee.

514
00:35:32,541 --> 00:35:33,791
Minh!

515
00:35:53,666 --> 00:35:54,708
Phong.

516
00:36:00,500 --> 00:36:02,833
This is for little Huong's eyes.

517
00:36:05,333 --> 00:36:06,750
Help me out.

518
00:36:07,958 --> 00:36:10,250
I don't want her soul to suffer.

519
00:36:11,458 --> 00:36:12,833
I thank you, Phong.

520
00:36:19,500 --> 00:36:21,375
Puppets draw near.

521
00:36:22,125 --> 00:36:23,833
Puppets draw near.

522
00:36:28,291 --> 00:36:29,916
<i>Listen to the singing cicada.</i>

523
00:36:40,041 --> 00:36:42,375
If you're wicked,

524
00:36:46,083 --> 00:36:47,958
puppets draw near.

525
00:36:49,041 --> 00:36:50,333
Drown and die here.

526
00:36:50,416 --> 00:36:52,458
Rest still on stones.

527
00:36:54,375 --> 00:36:56,458
Too fast you've gone.

528
00:36:56,541 --> 00:36:58,416
Trees hide your bones.

529
00:36:59,958 --> 00:37:01,708
Dangle at home,

530
00:37:03,291 --> 00:37:05,458
dry like an ore.

531
00:37:06,458 --> 00:37:08,416
Thoughts nevermore.

532
00:37:08,500 --> 00:37:10,333
For head is off.

533
00:37:10,958 --> 00:37:12,875
The wicked scoffs.

534
00:37:12,958 --> 00:37:14,750
The heart gets lopped.

535
00:37:38,666 --> 00:37:40,166
Poor child.

536
00:37:41,250 --> 00:37:43,125
Everyone has stayed in.

537
00:37:43,208 --> 00:37:44,416
They're afraid that if they come out,

538
00:37:44,500 --> 00:37:46,333
- they'll meet badness.
- Oh.

539
00:37:46,916 --> 00:37:48,791
Can we call this a funeral

540
00:37:48,875 --> 00:37:50,041
when so few are attending?

541
00:37:51,125 --> 00:37:52,708
- A ghost.
- My gods!

542
00:37:53,625 --> 00:37:55,791
- A ghost.
- Heavens!

543
00:37:56,666 --> 00:37:57,833
Mr. Dan!

544
00:37:57,916 --> 00:37:59,833
Soon, you'll scare me to death!

545
00:37:59,916 --> 00:38:01,375
It's not your turn yet.

546
00:38:01,458 --> 00:38:02,458
What'd you say?

547
00:38:02,541 --> 00:38:04,291
Eventually, all will fall.

548
00:38:04,375 --> 00:38:05,458
Quiet, quiet, quiet!

549
00:38:05,541 --> 00:38:08,208
If you don't leave, you'll die and dead!

550
00:38:08,291 --> 00:38:09,750
Die and dead!

551
00:38:09,833 --> 00:38:11,583
Badness, badness, badness!

552
00:38:11,666 --> 00:38:12,583
Begone, begone, begone!

553
00:38:13,166 --> 00:38:15,125
- Die and dead!
- Badness, badness!

554
00:38:16,666 --> 00:38:18,666
How could you utter
such nonsense, such drivel.

555
00:38:18,750 --> 00:38:19,791
Yes!

556
00:38:20,375 --> 00:38:21,416
- But he has a point, sir!
- Huh?

557
00:38:22,708 --> 00:38:24,583
If we remain here,

558
00:38:24,666 --> 00:38:26,333
sooner or later, it will be our turn.

559
00:38:29,833 --> 00:38:31,375
You have to come with me now.

560
00:38:31,916 --> 00:38:33,833
Both of us have to do something.

561
00:38:33,916 --> 00:38:35,041
Let's go!

562
00:38:40,666 --> 00:38:43,625
<i>We're leaving, we're leaving!</i>

563
00:38:43,708 --> 00:38:46,041
We're leaving!

564
00:38:46,125 --> 00:38:48,958
- We're leaving, we're leaving!
- We're leaving, we're leaving!

565
00:38:49,916 --> 00:38:51,791
- We're leaving!
- We're leaving!

566
00:38:51,875 --> 00:38:54,000
Little Huong
hasn't even been laid to rest.

567
00:38:54,083 --> 00:38:55,166
We're leaving, we're leaving!

568
00:38:55,250 --> 00:38:56,791
- So why are you all here?
- We're leaving, we're leaving!

569
00:38:56,875 --> 00:38:58,416
We want to leave the village.

570
00:38:58,500 --> 00:39:00,791
- You must lead the way.
- We're leaving, we're leaving!

571
00:39:00,875 --> 00:39:02,666
Dan, you must stop.

572
00:39:03,666 --> 00:39:06,958
If you continue being angry,
you'll only make yourselves suffer.

573
00:39:08,375 --> 00:39:10,000
Your child died, do you remember?

574
00:39:10,083 --> 00:39:12,041
My daughter's there! My daughter's there!

575
00:39:12,125 --> 00:39:13,250
I must be with my daughter.

576
00:39:13,333 --> 00:39:14,666
- I...
- Stop now!

577
00:39:16,333 --> 00:39:17,458
My child's not dead.

578
00:39:17,541 --> 00:39:18,416
She is not dead!

579
00:39:19,000 --> 00:39:20,625
She's not dead!

580
00:39:20,708 --> 00:39:21,583
- Village Chief!
- My child's not dead!

581
00:39:22,333 --> 00:39:23,958
You must help us descend.

582
00:39:24,041 --> 00:39:25,583
There's a killer among us.

583
00:39:25,666 --> 00:39:27,333
Who knows whom they'll target next?

584
00:39:27,416 --> 00:39:28,375
- That's correct!
- We're leaving, we're leaving!

585
00:39:28,458 --> 00:39:29,291
Enough!

586
00:39:31,791 --> 00:39:33,375
The way down the mountain is treacherous.

587
00:39:34,916 --> 00:39:36,791
Don't you dare try to scare us.

588
00:39:36,875 --> 00:39:38,708
If you won't show the way,
we'll find our own.

589
00:39:38,791 --> 00:39:39,875
Ngo!

590
00:39:39,958 --> 00:39:41,083
Everyone!

591
00:39:41,166 --> 00:39:42,458
Please do not leave.

592
00:39:43,041 --> 00:39:45,500
My father is saying the way
is not as easy as we think.

593
00:39:48,458 --> 00:39:50,958
What if we let the people
descend just once, sir?

594
00:39:51,958 --> 00:39:53,458
- That's right!
- I have spoken.

595
00:39:54,500 --> 00:39:55,958
I will lead no one.

596
00:39:56,041 --> 00:39:57,750
Not a single soul.

597
00:39:57,833 --> 00:39:58,833
Fine!

598
00:39:58,916 --> 00:40:01,125
We'll go by ourselves.

599
00:40:01,208 --> 00:40:02,583
Let's move, everyone.

600
00:40:02,666 --> 00:40:04,750
Humans or demons, I don't give a damn.

601
00:40:04,833 --> 00:40:06,375
There's only death here if we stay.

602
00:40:06,458 --> 00:40:08,000
- Yes!
- Indeed!

603
00:40:08,083 --> 00:40:10,083
If his family can go, so can we.

604
00:40:10,166 --> 00:40:11,000
Move!

605
00:40:11,083 --> 00:40:14,541
- We're leaving, we're leaving!
- We're leaving, we're leaving!

606
00:40:14,625 --> 00:40:17,916
- We're leaving, we're leaving!
- We're leaving, we're leaving!

607
00:40:18,625 --> 00:40:21,375
We're leaving, we're leaving!

608
00:40:21,458 --> 00:40:23,583
- Don't go, everyone!
- We're leaving!

609
00:40:24,250 --> 00:40:25,750
- We're leaving!
- Sir Moc Tang!

610
00:40:25,833 --> 00:40:26,958
We're leaving!

611
00:40:27,041 --> 00:40:28,791
- Sir Moc Tang, please stay.
- We're leaving!

612
00:40:28,875 --> 00:40:29,708
Phong, dear.

613
00:40:30,583 --> 00:40:32,833
My whole life, I've never been bold,

614
00:40:33,375 --> 00:40:34,875
but at this moment,

615
00:40:34,958 --> 00:40:35,875
I have no choice.

616
00:40:35,958 --> 00:40:38,083
No, sir! Please listen to me.

617
00:40:38,166 --> 00:40:39,541
No!

618
00:40:39,625 --> 00:40:42,166
You stay and be well.

619
00:40:42,250 --> 00:40:43,625
I have to leave.

620
00:40:43,708 --> 00:40:45,083
- I must go.
- Sir!

621
00:40:48,250 --> 00:40:53,166
We're leaving, we're leaving!

622
00:40:56,458 --> 00:40:57,458
For you, stepmother.

623
00:41:04,833 --> 00:41:05,958
Where's that boy, Sang?

624
00:41:08,416 --> 00:41:10,416
He told me he wanted a moment to himself.

625
00:41:12,791 --> 00:41:13,625
My dear!

626
00:41:15,625 --> 00:41:18,750
More than half
of the villagers have descended.

627
00:41:20,416 --> 00:41:22,250
I'm so afraid to once more witness

628
00:41:23,125 --> 00:41:25,458
the same sight as before.

629
00:41:30,125 --> 00:41:31,291
What is it, sir?

630
00:41:37,541 --> 00:41:38,791
<i>Our villagers,</i>

631
00:41:39,625 --> 00:41:41,958
<i>none of them can leave this place.</i>

632
00:41:42,916 --> 00:41:44,083
<i>If they aren't killed,</i>

633
00:41:44,166 --> 00:41:45,875
<i>they would go insane.</i>

634
00:41:46,708 --> 00:41:48,666
<i>Day in and day out,</i>

635
00:41:48,750 --> 00:41:49,875
<i>saying that</i>

636
00:41:49,958 --> 00:41:51,833
<i>spirits are out there</i>

637
00:41:51,916 --> 00:41:53,291
<i>in great numbers.</i>

638
00:42:03,291 --> 00:42:06,250
<i>At the end of that year,
when you suddenly became ill,</i>

639
00:42:06,333 --> 00:42:08,666
<i>you were so feverish that
I thought you would die.</i>

640
00:42:08,750 --> 00:42:10,708
- Phong!
- Phong! Oh, Phong!

641
00:42:11,958 --> 00:42:16,791
<i>At one point, your mother and I
both dreamt of a woman in red</i>

642
00:42:16,875 --> 00:42:19,625
<i>who showed our family
the way down the mountain.</i>

643
00:42:20,833 --> 00:42:21,916
<i>We woke up,</i>

644
00:42:22,416 --> 00:42:25,541
<i>and we decided to try and descend.</i>

645
00:42:26,500 --> 00:42:27,666
<i>And then,</i>

646
00:42:27,750 --> 00:42:30,416
<i>everything we dreamt happened.</i>

647
00:42:31,291 --> 00:42:33,750
<i>You got better.
We returned to the village.</i>

648
00:42:34,375 --> 00:42:37,208
<i>Then the woman in red
again appeared to us,</i>

649
00:42:37,291 --> 00:42:41,041
<i>saying only our bloodline
could come and go safely.</i>

650
00:42:41,750 --> 00:42:43,458
<i>Even so, your mother led Madam Lan,</i>

651
00:42:43,541 --> 00:42:45,750
<i>or Sang's mother, down the mountain.</i>

652
00:42:47,041 --> 00:42:51,583
<i>When they descended midway,
they both caught the crimson sweat.</i>

653
00:43:00,875 --> 00:43:02,666
Why didn't you tell everyone that, Father?

654
00:43:06,708 --> 00:43:08,291
I told them,

655
00:43:09,791 --> 00:43:11,583
but no one believed me.

656
00:43:15,083 --> 00:43:16,791
They all agreed that

657
00:43:17,583 --> 00:43:19,500
the crimson sweat was just a sickness

658
00:43:20,041 --> 00:43:21,541
that anyone could catch.

659
00:43:25,208 --> 00:43:26,958
Eventually, the elders told us to stop,

660
00:43:27,500 --> 00:43:30,166
to never again tell that story.

661
00:43:32,916 --> 00:43:34,375
But Sang,

662
00:43:34,458 --> 00:43:36,375
he is now part of our family.

663
00:43:36,458 --> 00:43:38,000
You wouldn't even tell him?

664
00:43:40,541 --> 00:43:41,833
In the end, your husband

665
00:43:41,916 --> 00:43:43,375
is only our family in name.

666
00:43:44,833 --> 00:43:46,833
I also doubt that
he would believe the story.

667
00:43:50,625 --> 00:43:51,541
Sir!

668
00:43:52,541 --> 00:43:53,750
What's that noise?

669
00:43:58,000 --> 00:44:00,833
It hurts so much! It hurts... hurts...

670
00:44:13,000 --> 00:44:14,250
Return to the village! The village!

671
00:44:14,333 --> 00:44:16,333
Quickly! Return to the village!
To the village!

672
00:44:16,916 --> 00:44:18,458
To the village, now!

673
00:44:18,541 --> 00:44:20,791
- To the village!
- Run!

674
00:44:31,916 --> 00:44:32,750
Everyone!

675
00:44:32,833 --> 00:44:34,541
Keep the torches lit!

676
00:44:35,250 --> 00:44:36,541
Watch out for the fireflies.

677
00:44:36,625 --> 00:44:39,333
Everyone, we're close to the gate.

678
00:44:39,416 --> 00:44:41,083
Don't let the light go out.

679
00:45:23,416 --> 00:45:25,666
The woman in red you saw in your dreams

680
00:45:26,750 --> 00:45:29,625
and the woman in red I saw at my wedding,

681
00:45:30,333 --> 00:45:32,083
they might be the same person.

682
00:45:33,041 --> 00:45:35,416
Do you think she is some demonic spirit?

683
00:45:37,083 --> 00:45:39,666
I'm not certain that
the crimson sweat is a natural illness.

684
00:45:39,750 --> 00:45:42,208
Without the woman in red,

685
00:45:42,291 --> 00:45:44,375
you'd already be dead.

686
00:45:45,291 --> 00:45:46,750
And given your place in the house,

687
00:45:47,375 --> 00:45:48,625
what do you know?

688
00:45:54,666 --> 00:45:58,041
Because of the woman in red,
you could descend to trade goods.

689
00:45:59,833 --> 00:46:01,416
Because of her, you became the chief.

690
00:46:02,666 --> 00:46:03,875
You wouldn't want
things to change, correct?

691
00:46:03,958 --> 00:46:05,125
Silence!

692
00:46:05,833 --> 00:46:07,541
Don't you dare make assumptions.

693
00:46:10,666 --> 00:46:11,916
If the story gets told,

694
00:46:12,708 --> 00:46:14,375
the villagers might think

695
00:46:14,458 --> 00:46:17,416
I hold the power to command spirits,

696
00:46:17,500 --> 00:46:20,250
to control demons and to hurt people.

697
00:46:25,458 --> 00:46:26,375
Phong!

698
00:46:28,666 --> 00:46:29,500
Oh, Phong!

699
00:46:30,250 --> 00:46:31,500
Listen to your stepmother here.

700
00:46:32,666 --> 00:46:33,958
All you've heard,

701
00:46:34,041 --> 00:46:35,333
mute it as you live,

702
00:46:35,875 --> 00:46:36,958
bring it as you die.

703
00:46:38,291 --> 00:46:39,875
If this becomes known,

704
00:46:39,958 --> 00:46:41,916
we'll break a promise

705
00:46:42,000 --> 00:46:44,083
we made to the woman in red.

706
00:46:45,541 --> 00:46:46,375
It could be deadly.

707
00:46:47,333 --> 00:46:48,166
Child!

708
00:46:49,708 --> 00:46:50,750
Oh, child!

709
00:46:52,125 --> 00:46:53,125
Child...

710
00:48:01,083 --> 00:48:02,291
- Kham!
- Yes?

711
00:48:02,375 --> 00:48:03,833
Go and check on them.

712
00:48:03,916 --> 00:48:05,583
- Yes.
- Check their pulses, child.

713
00:48:05,666 --> 00:48:06,625
Yes.

714
00:48:09,041 --> 00:48:11,333
Sir Moc Tang! Sir Moc Tang!

715
00:48:11,416 --> 00:48:12,916
What is all this, sir?

716
00:48:13,000 --> 00:48:14,583
Sir, oh, sir!

717
00:48:17,416 --> 00:48:19,083
- Sir!
- It hurts!

718
00:48:19,166 --> 00:48:20,500
Sir, how are you feeling?

719
00:48:20,583 --> 00:48:22,375
Our village...

720
00:48:22,458 --> 00:48:25,125
we can't leave this place.

721
00:48:25,958 --> 00:48:29,791
- Sir!
- This village is cursed.

722
00:48:29,875 --> 00:48:30,708
Sir!

723
00:48:30,791 --> 00:48:32,833
- Oh, sir!
- Sir!

724
00:48:39,375 --> 00:48:40,625
A ghost!

725
00:48:41,291 --> 00:48:43,333
A... a... a ghost is out here!

726
00:49:01,708 --> 00:49:04,125
I can't believe this scene
is happening again.

727
00:49:05,916 --> 00:49:07,750
More than 15 years have passed,

728
00:49:10,375 --> 00:49:12,750
but the death of my mother then
remains clear as ever.

729
00:49:17,416 --> 00:49:19,250
They were adamant about leaving.

730
00:49:21,500 --> 00:49:23,458
My father said they shouldn't.

731
00:49:27,791 --> 00:49:28,875
Phong!

732
00:49:30,208 --> 00:49:31,458
They were just looking for freedom.

733
00:49:32,500 --> 00:49:34,166
Life is still good here.

734
00:49:36,291 --> 00:49:38,041
You think there's a good life
in a place like this?

735
00:49:39,625 --> 00:49:41,000
Does a "good life" mean that
when night comes around,

736
00:49:41,083 --> 00:49:43,083
people are afraid to leave their homes?

737
00:49:43,625 --> 00:49:46,833
That the villagers are
on the verge of going crazy?

738
00:49:50,333 --> 00:49:52,333
Did you see what happened last night?

739
00:49:53,375 --> 00:49:54,750
If you leave, you die.

740
00:49:55,625 --> 00:49:57,166
I'm fine with death,

741
00:49:59,500 --> 00:50:01,250
as long as it's not here.

742
00:50:23,125 --> 00:50:24,250
Ngo!

743
00:50:24,333 --> 00:50:25,750
Why are you playing with fire?

744
00:50:25,833 --> 00:50:26,750
Huh?

745
00:50:31,666 --> 00:50:32,583
Hey!

746
00:50:33,250 --> 00:50:34,375
Tell me something.

747
00:50:34,458 --> 00:50:35,958
What happened in the village

748
00:50:36,041 --> 00:50:38,083
that caused you
all a million miles away, huh?

749
00:50:38,666 --> 00:50:39,875
- Ngo!
- Huh...

750
00:50:40,625 --> 00:50:42,500
Tell me what happened.

751
00:51:01,750 --> 00:51:03,041
Her child died.

752
00:51:03,125 --> 00:51:04,791
She went crazy like Mr. Dan,

753
00:51:06,916 --> 00:51:08,958
always acting like a possessed person.

754
00:51:13,000 --> 00:51:15,208
I must descend the mountain

755
00:51:15,291 --> 00:51:16,541
to...

756
00:51:16,625 --> 00:51:18,500
find more medicine for us.

757
00:51:19,166 --> 00:51:21,541
But if you go now, I worry that...

758
00:51:21,625 --> 00:51:22,916
The lack of medicine,

759
00:51:23,916 --> 00:51:26,250
what could be worse for us than that?

760
00:51:27,541 --> 00:51:28,916
I have spoken,

761
00:51:29,000 --> 00:51:30,250
so I'll get to it.

762
00:51:30,916 --> 00:51:32,166
Enough idle chatter.

763
00:51:42,625 --> 00:51:43,750
Oh, little Huong!

764
00:51:43,833 --> 00:51:44,666
The crazy woman!

765
00:51:44,750 --> 00:51:46,958
- Come home to me, dear.
- Crazy, the crazy woman!

766
00:51:47,041 --> 00:51:48,416
- Huong!
- Run, it's the crazy woman!

767
00:51:48,500 --> 00:51:49,416
- The crazy woman!
- Huong!

768
00:51:49,500 --> 00:51:51,166
- The crazy woman!
- Oh, Huong!

769
00:52:07,166 --> 00:52:08,291
Mother!

770
00:52:08,375 --> 00:52:09,500
Mother!

771
00:52:11,833 --> 00:52:13,666
Come with me to the village chief's place!

772
00:52:16,375 --> 00:52:18,458
I will retrieve Huong's puppet for you.

773
00:52:21,958 --> 00:52:22,833
Come on!

774
00:52:25,125 --> 00:52:27,083
- Mother!
<i>- Listening to the singing cicada,</i>

775
00:52:30,583 --> 00:52:32,125
the poem of Hellbound.

776
00:52:34,416 --> 00:52:36,166
Eggplants turn round.

777
00:52:37,500 --> 00:52:39,291
Bamboos flower.

778
00:52:40,208 --> 00:52:41,500
Endless wonder.

779
00:52:47,125 --> 00:52:48,833
<i>Too fast you've gone.</i>

780
00:52:48,916 --> 00:52:50,583
<i>Trees hide your bones.</i>

781
00:52:50,666 --> 00:52:52,416
<i>Dangle at home,</i>

782
00:52:52,500 --> 00:52:53,625
<i>dry like an ore.</i>

783
00:52:53,708 --> 00:52:55,333
<i>For head is off.</i>

784
00:52:55,416 --> 00:52:56,291
<i>The wicked scoffs.</i>

785
00:52:56,375 --> 00:52:58,166
<i>The heart gets lopped.</i>

786
00:53:03,541 --> 00:53:05,875
<i>Listen to the singing cicada,</i>

787
00:53:05,958 --> 00:53:09,041
<i>the poem of Hellbound.</i>

788
00:53:09,125 --> 00:53:11,708
<i>Eggplants turn round.</i>

789
00:53:11,791 --> 00:53:14,833
<i>Bamboos flower.</i>

790
00:53:14,916 --> 00:53:17,250
<i>Endless wonder.</i>

791
00:53:17,333 --> 00:53:20,208
<i>Risky to tread.</i>

792
00:53:20,291 --> 00:53:22,666
<i>If you're wicked,</i>

793
00:53:22,750 --> 00:53:26,041
<i>puppets draw near.</i>

794
00:53:41,000 --> 00:53:42,166
Where have you been since this afternoon?

795
00:53:46,083 --> 00:53:47,458
I followed your father.

796
00:53:49,375 --> 00:53:50,958
But the trail was challenging,

797
00:53:51,916 --> 00:53:53,916
and so I lost track of him at one point.

798
00:53:57,958 --> 00:53:59,291
Why are you so stubborn?

799
00:54:02,791 --> 00:54:04,833
Is leaving the village a must for you?

800
00:54:06,041 --> 00:54:07,333
Sang!

801
00:54:07,416 --> 00:54:08,916
There is no descending this mountain.

802
00:54:09,000 --> 00:54:10,250
It is dangerous.

803
00:54:11,375 --> 00:54:12,458
The crimson sweat,

804
00:54:12,541 --> 00:54:14,416
then the fact that these woods are lethal.

805
00:54:14,500 --> 00:54:15,541
Aren't you afraid at all?

806
00:54:17,875 --> 00:54:19,833
If you want to know, I will tell you now

807
00:54:19,916 --> 00:54:22,166
why only my bloodline
can descend this mountain.

808
00:54:24,333 --> 00:54:25,333
In the past...

809
00:54:27,333 --> 00:54:28,166
Everyone!

810
00:54:29,000 --> 00:54:30,916
Have any of you seen my daughter?

811
00:54:31,000 --> 00:54:32,791
- Where is my daughter?
- What is wrong, Mr. Tam?

812
00:54:32,875 --> 00:54:34,333
- You mean Minh?
- Yes!

813
00:54:34,416 --> 00:54:36,000
She... she vanished!

814
00:54:36,083 --> 00:54:37,625
- Oh, Minh!
- Where has Minh gone?

815
00:54:37,708 --> 00:54:38,916
Minh!

816
00:54:39,000 --> 00:54:40,500
Daughter, dear!

817
00:54:40,583 --> 00:54:42,000
Minh!

818
00:54:43,000 --> 00:54:44,250
My child!

819
00:54:45,000 --> 00:54:46,833
Minh!

820
00:54:49,000 --> 00:54:50,375
Phong! Phong!

821
00:54:50,458 --> 00:54:51,875
- Minh!
- Minh!

822
00:54:51,958 --> 00:54:54,000
Oh, Minh!

823
00:54:54,083 --> 00:54:56,791
- Minh!
- Minh!

824
00:54:56,875 --> 00:54:58,291
Minh!

825
00:54:58,375 --> 00:54:59,250
Minh!

826
00:54:59,833 --> 00:55:01,291
Minh!

827
00:55:01,375 --> 00:55:03,625
- Minh, oh!
- Minh!

828
00:55:04,875 --> 00:55:07,125
- Oh, Minh!
- Minh!

829
00:55:12,750 --> 00:55:13,666
Are you afraid?

830
00:55:14,958 --> 00:55:16,791
The youngsters in this village,

831
00:55:17,375 --> 00:55:19,666
every single one of them is a coward.

832
00:55:21,250 --> 00:55:22,666
If you're scared,

833
00:55:22,750 --> 00:55:24,166
go the hell home.

834
00:55:36,916 --> 00:55:38,916
<i>Trieu Thi Phong...</i>

835
00:55:39,500 --> 00:55:41,333
<i>Trieu Thi Phong...</i>

836
00:55:41,416 --> 00:55:43,958
<i>Trieu Thi Phong...</i>

837
00:56:18,708 --> 00:56:19,708
Minh!

838
00:56:19,791 --> 00:56:21,041
Minh!

839
00:56:21,125 --> 00:56:22,333
Where are you?

840
00:56:23,208 --> 00:56:24,458
Minh!

841
00:56:27,041 --> 00:56:28,083
Oh, Minh, where are you?

842
00:56:28,166 --> 00:56:29,791
Come and I'll return your puppet.

843
00:56:32,166 --> 00:56:33,666
Please come home to me.

844
00:56:35,916 --> 00:56:37,000
Minh!

845
00:56:38,875 --> 00:56:40,708
Oh, Minh, where are you, dear?

846
00:56:59,250 --> 00:57:00,083
Oh, gods!

847
00:57:00,166 --> 00:57:01,791
That is not Minh. That is...

848
00:57:01,875 --> 00:57:03,041
Miss Can.

849
00:57:03,125 --> 00:57:05,166
Miss Can is dead.

850
00:57:05,958 --> 00:57:07,500
Minh! Minh!

851
00:57:07,583 --> 00:57:08,708
Where is Minh then?

852
00:57:08,791 --> 00:57:11,041
- Where is Minh?
- Where has she gone?

853
00:57:18,541 --> 00:57:19,875
Another puppet.

854
00:57:54,500 --> 00:57:56,000
Her liver is gone!

855
00:58:04,000 --> 00:58:06,500
Sir, I've carefully inspected her.

856
00:58:07,791 --> 00:58:10,041
Miss Can was stabbed from the back.

857
00:58:10,125 --> 00:58:12,041
But that only got her guard down.

858
00:58:13,291 --> 00:58:14,833
The actual cause of death

859
00:58:14,916 --> 00:58:15,791
was drowning.

860
00:58:18,666 --> 00:58:20,083
The puppet, again.

861
00:58:20,166 --> 00:58:21,375
All of you, look at it.

862
00:58:22,625 --> 00:58:23,791
All of you, look at it.

863
00:58:24,791 --> 00:58:27,166
Out of everyone, only Duong makes puppets.

864
00:58:27,250 --> 00:58:28,750
But he is dead.

865
00:58:30,041 --> 00:58:31,291
- Maybe he...
- Dong!

866
00:58:31,375 --> 00:58:33,750
- Yes?
- Rush to Duong's place now,

867
00:58:33,833 --> 00:58:36,083
gather all the puppets,
and bring them to my place.

868
00:58:36,666 --> 00:58:38,291
I'll see if they've become demonic,

869
00:58:38,375 --> 00:58:40,750
or if someone else is behind all this.

870
00:58:41,500 --> 00:58:42,541
Yes, sir!

871
00:58:43,333 --> 00:58:45,000
Since the chief has said so,

872
00:58:45,625 --> 00:58:47,000
then it shall be done.

873
00:58:47,708 --> 00:58:49,166
I hope

874
00:58:49,250 --> 00:58:50,375
it will soon be over.

875
00:58:51,625 --> 00:58:52,791
If not,

876
00:58:52,875 --> 00:58:54,166
your whole family...

877
00:58:59,291 --> 00:59:00,333
will pay with your lives.

878
00:59:00,416 --> 00:59:02,875
Yes! Pay with your lives.

879
00:59:24,333 --> 00:59:25,458
Who's there?

880
00:59:26,416 --> 00:59:27,333
Stepmother?

881
00:59:34,666 --> 00:59:35,916
Stepmother?

882
01:01:11,250 --> 01:01:13,958
Phong! Phong! Phong!

883
01:01:14,791 --> 01:01:15,833
What happened, dear?

884
01:01:16,875 --> 01:01:17,833
Dear?

885
01:01:19,041 --> 01:01:20,416
Again, it was the woman in red

886
01:01:20,500 --> 01:01:22,041
and those puppets.

887
01:01:23,125 --> 01:01:24,250
Where?

888
01:01:25,291 --> 01:01:26,666
I don't see anything, child.

889
01:01:28,875 --> 01:01:29,916
Never mind!

890
01:01:30,000 --> 01:01:31,250
Get in the house.

891
01:01:31,750 --> 01:01:33,000
Come in with me.

892
01:01:33,083 --> 01:01:34,166
Go!

893
01:01:35,083 --> 01:01:35,916
Now!

894
01:01:37,291 --> 01:01:38,333
Come!

895
01:01:49,666 --> 01:01:51,583
It's dark out.
Where were you going, Phong?

896
01:01:51,666 --> 01:01:52,875
Sang!

897
01:01:52,958 --> 01:01:54,791
You must keep an eye on your wife.

898
01:01:54,875 --> 01:01:56,875
You have no idea where she went?

899
01:01:58,291 --> 01:01:59,583
Forgive me.

900
01:02:10,750 --> 01:02:12,166
It's late now.

901
01:02:12,250 --> 01:02:13,500
You had better go to bed.

902
01:02:14,666 --> 01:02:15,625
Yes.

903
01:02:29,875 --> 01:02:31,291
Where were you going, Phong?

904
01:02:32,750 --> 01:02:33,875
Sang,

905
01:02:34,916 --> 01:02:37,625
if I were to tell you I can see spirits,

906
01:02:37,708 --> 01:02:39,166
the dead, and the wicked,

907
01:02:39,250 --> 01:02:40,333
would you believe me?

908
01:02:49,250 --> 01:02:51,375
There is something I've never told you.

909
01:02:52,291 --> 01:02:53,416
When I was born,

910
01:02:53,500 --> 01:02:55,333
hard karma was in my blood.

911
01:02:56,125 --> 01:02:58,041
That is how I can see the unseen.

912
01:02:58,625 --> 01:03:00,375
You must stop speaking like this.

913
01:03:01,583 --> 01:03:02,583
Do you remember

914
01:03:02,666 --> 01:03:04,625
how people still talk

915
01:03:04,708 --> 01:03:06,166
about a place called hell?

916
01:03:06,708 --> 01:03:08,000
It is a real place.

917
01:03:08,666 --> 01:03:10,875
I have seen the spirit of my mother

918
01:03:10,958 --> 01:03:13,583
and of the other villagers
going there with the ferry woman.

919
01:03:14,375 --> 01:03:16,041
But all of the recently deceased,

920
01:03:16,125 --> 01:03:18,041
I don't see any
of their souls on the ferry.

921
01:03:19,291 --> 01:03:21,208
And by their bodies,
there is always a puppet.

922
01:03:21,291 --> 01:03:22,125
Correct?

923
01:03:23,125 --> 01:03:25,333
Those puppets may have trapped
the souls of Duong,

924
01:03:25,416 --> 01:03:26,833
little Huong and Miss Can.

925
01:03:30,000 --> 01:03:31,000
You...

926
01:03:32,583 --> 01:03:33,416
Phong!

927
01:03:34,458 --> 01:03:35,583
Do you remember the woman in red

928
01:03:35,666 --> 01:03:37,958
that I saw during our wedding?

929
01:03:41,291 --> 01:03:43,458
Just now, I saw her
reaping the puppets' souls

930
01:03:43,541 --> 01:03:44,875
with my own eyes.

931
01:03:46,958 --> 01:03:47,958
I swear that my words are true.

932
01:03:48,041 --> 01:03:48,916
I wasn't at all dreaming.

933
01:03:49,000 --> 01:03:50,583
Are you well or not, Phong?

934
01:03:51,541 --> 01:03:52,625
What is "reaping souls"?

935
01:03:52,708 --> 01:03:55,916
I'm sure someone is practicing
dark magic here in this village.

936
01:03:56,000 --> 01:03:58,500
It's possible that the puppets
besides the bodies

937
01:03:58,583 --> 01:04:00,500
- are a part of them.
- Enough, Phong!

938
01:04:01,041 --> 01:04:03,208
If you feel that staying here
is becoming too dangerous,

939
01:04:03,291 --> 01:04:04,791
then we can always leave here.

940
01:04:08,291 --> 01:04:09,833
Don't you get the situation here?

941
01:04:10,958 --> 01:04:12,416
How in the world can we leave?

942
01:04:12,500 --> 01:04:14,166
Why are you refusing to solve this with me

943
01:04:14,250 --> 01:04:15,791
and are so set on running away?

944
01:04:15,875 --> 01:04:17,708
Or am I not the person
you would want to leave with?

945
01:04:29,875 --> 01:04:31,125
Listen closely, dear.

946
01:04:32,333 --> 01:04:34,083
I will leave this place.

947
01:04:35,375 --> 01:04:36,500
If you and your father can do it,

948
01:04:36,583 --> 01:04:38,333
then so can I.

949
01:04:46,583 --> 01:04:48,375
So orders the chief...

950
01:04:48,958 --> 01:04:51,250
Unless in cases of emergency,

951
01:04:51,333 --> 01:04:53,333
women and the elderly

952
01:04:53,416 --> 01:04:55,500
must remain indoors.

953
01:05:04,875 --> 01:05:05,708
Phong!

954
01:05:06,666 --> 01:05:07,875
Where are you going?

955
01:05:08,500 --> 01:05:09,875
Return at once.

956
01:05:09,958 --> 01:05:12,166
It has been ordered that
no one can be outside.

957
01:05:13,166 --> 01:05:14,708
I'm looking for your father.

958
01:05:16,333 --> 01:05:18,000
<i>Listen to the singing cicada,</i>

959
01:05:18,500 --> 01:05:20,083
the poem of Hellbound.

960
01:05:20,166 --> 01:05:22,541
Eggplants turn round.

961
01:05:22,625 --> 01:05:24,208
Bamboos flower.

962
01:05:24,750 --> 01:05:26,500
Endless wonder.

963
01:05:27,125 --> 01:05:29,791
Risky to tread.

964
01:05:32,291 --> 01:05:33,541
Hold on, Kham.

965
01:05:34,166 --> 01:05:35,166
What is Madam Tam singing?

966
01:05:35,750 --> 01:05:37,666
A poem we used to recite together
when we were young.

967
01:05:38,875 --> 01:05:39,875
We used to recite it?

968
01:05:42,750 --> 01:05:44,333
How come I have no memory of it?

969
01:05:45,625 --> 01:05:47,000
I think there's something in the poem.

970
01:05:47,083 --> 01:05:49,083
If you're wicked,

971
01:05:51,666 --> 01:05:53,625
puppets draw near.

972
01:05:55,666 --> 01:05:57,041
Drown and die here.

973
01:05:57,125 --> 01:05:58,958
Rest still on stones.

974
01:06:00,000 --> 01:06:01,500
Too fast you've gone.

975
01:06:02,291 --> 01:06:04,125
Trees hide your bones.

976
01:06:06,666 --> 01:06:09,041
Dangle at home,

977
01:06:09,666 --> 01:06:11,791
dry like an ore.

978
01:06:12,375 --> 01:06:13,583
Maiden's fresh red

979
01:06:13,666 --> 01:06:15,375
to serve things dread.

980
01:06:15,458 --> 01:06:18,541
Madam Tam!

981
01:06:18,625 --> 01:06:21,000
Madam Tam!

982
01:06:21,833 --> 01:06:23,833
She fainted from exhaustion.

983
01:06:23,916 --> 01:06:25,916
Just let her rest and she'll come to.

984
01:06:29,166 --> 01:06:30,666
As for the poem,

985
01:06:30,750 --> 01:06:32,333
it's been sung

986
01:06:32,416 --> 01:06:34,250
since your father and I were kids.

987
01:06:34,333 --> 01:06:36,916
Every child in Hellbound Village

988
01:06:37,000 --> 01:06:38,583
knows it by heart.

989
01:06:40,916 --> 01:06:42,791
Sir Chan and Kham, listen.

990
01:06:43,583 --> 01:06:45,375
Puppeteer Duong was missing his hands.

991
01:06:46,291 --> 01:06:47,208
Little Huong,

992
01:06:47,291 --> 01:06:49,791
a known fast runner, was missing her legs.

993
01:06:49,875 --> 01:06:51,833
Miss Can now has no liver.

994
01:06:51,916 --> 01:06:53,666
That's three lives, gone.

995
01:06:54,750 --> 01:06:56,416
And next to their bodies

996
01:06:56,500 --> 01:06:58,666
was a puppet with similar wounds.

997
01:06:59,250 --> 01:07:00,625
If we listen to the poem,

998
01:07:02,625 --> 01:07:04,166
it means two more shall die.

999
01:07:06,291 --> 01:07:07,458
Thoughts nevermore.

1000
01:07:08,791 --> 01:07:10,208
For head is off.

1001
01:07:10,750 --> 01:07:12,291
The wicked scoffs.

1002
01:07:13,375 --> 01:07:14,708
Lost be your heart.

1003
01:07:16,500 --> 01:07:19,458
The killer still needs a head and a heart,

1004
01:07:20,041 --> 01:07:21,541
then they'll have a complete body.

1005
01:07:22,541 --> 01:07:24,041
Maiden's fresh red

1006
01:07:26,250 --> 01:07:27,416
to serve things dread.

1007
01:07:28,750 --> 01:07:29,583
Minh is "the maiden".

1008
01:07:30,541 --> 01:07:32,125
Minh might still be alive.

1009
01:07:32,750 --> 01:07:33,625
True.

1010
01:07:35,791 --> 01:07:38,333
The killer has abducted Minh
to use her blood.

1011
01:07:39,125 --> 01:07:40,875
So before all the five are murdered,

1012
01:07:40,958 --> 01:07:42,375
the killer will keep Minh alive.

1013
01:07:53,125 --> 01:07:54,375
What this means

1014
01:07:54,958 --> 01:07:56,833
is that someone is practicing dark magic.

1015
01:07:57,458 --> 01:07:59,083
Sooner or later,

1016
01:07:59,166 --> 01:08:01,250
another villager will fall.

1017
01:08:02,125 --> 01:08:03,083
Phong!

1018
01:08:04,000 --> 01:08:06,000
Rush home and tell your father

1019
01:08:06,083 --> 01:08:07,583
to gather everyone together

1020
01:08:07,666 --> 01:08:09,958
and allow no one
to roam around on their own.

1021
01:08:26,000 --> 01:08:27,041
Mr. Dan!

1022
01:08:27,125 --> 01:08:29,000
- Why are you out in the sun?
- Who's there?

1023
01:08:29,083 --> 01:08:30,666
- Which one?
- Mr. Dan...

1024
01:08:30,750 --> 01:08:32,166
Why are you here?

1025
01:08:32,250 --> 01:08:34,375
It's dangerous to have a knife, sir.
Please hand it over.

1026
01:08:43,416 --> 01:08:44,250
Daughter.

1027
01:08:45,833 --> 01:08:47,208
Where are you going, dear?

1028
01:08:47,291 --> 01:08:48,458
Come dine with me.

1029
01:08:49,500 --> 01:08:51,291
Dine with your father,
dine with your father.

1030
01:08:53,125 --> 01:08:54,000
Dine... dine with your father!

1031
01:08:54,083 --> 01:08:56,000
- Eat up, it's good!
- Mr. Dan! Mr. Dan!

1032
01:08:59,416 --> 01:09:01,375
Calm yourself, sir, and listen to me!

1033
01:09:05,416 --> 01:09:06,875
Your daughter is dead.

1034
01:09:10,333 --> 01:09:12,125
This woman is not your own blood.

1035
01:09:12,958 --> 01:09:14,083
This is Phong.

1036
01:09:15,166 --> 01:09:16,583
You lie!

1037
01:09:17,500 --> 01:09:18,500
Where's my girl?

1038
01:09:19,083 --> 01:09:21,041
Daughter! Daughter!

1039
01:09:21,125 --> 01:09:22,708
Where has she gone?

1040
01:09:23,750 --> 01:09:25,416
Child, don't leave me!

1041
01:09:25,500 --> 01:09:27,000
Daughter!

1042
01:09:34,166 --> 01:09:35,625
- Village Chief.
- Father!

1043
01:09:36,208 --> 01:09:38,333
Phong and I would like to share
something vital with you.

1044
01:09:41,333 --> 01:09:42,583
How fortunate I am

1045
01:09:43,666 --> 01:09:46,000
to see Kham willing to assist me,

1046
01:09:47,291 --> 01:09:49,458
with my daughter by his side too.

1047
01:09:51,916 --> 01:09:53,458
Father, Sang...

1048
01:09:53,541 --> 01:09:54,958
- he is...
- Go home!

1049
01:10:13,208 --> 01:10:14,583
I have ordered all villagers

1050
01:10:15,708 --> 01:10:19,166
to close their doors and stay inside.

1051
01:10:20,833 --> 01:10:22,458
How dare you be out

1052
01:10:23,250 --> 01:10:25,833
and be following another man!

1053
01:10:25,916 --> 01:10:26,833
Dear husband...

1054
01:10:27,625 --> 01:10:29,041
if our child has done this deed,

1055
01:10:29,125 --> 01:10:31,458
- there must be a good reason.
- Shut your mouth!

1056
01:10:32,041 --> 01:10:35,208
You're not her birth mother.
How the hell would you know?

1057
01:10:38,500 --> 01:10:39,625
Father!

1058
01:10:39,708 --> 01:10:41,708
A killer is performing dark arts
within our village.

1059
01:10:42,333 --> 01:10:44,666
We must let everyone know,
so it can be stopped.

1060
01:10:44,750 --> 01:10:46,125
Otherwise, more people will die,

1061
01:10:46,208 --> 01:10:47,625
exactly the way the children's poem g...

1062
01:10:47,708 --> 01:10:49,416
Quiet, quiet, quiet!

1063
01:10:52,166 --> 01:10:53,541
Do you trust me now, sir?

1064
01:10:56,750 --> 01:10:59,833
Your daughter goes on and on
about a villager practicing dark magic.

1065
01:11:03,500 --> 01:11:05,791
It's all a pretext to hang around Kham.

1066
01:11:07,875 --> 01:11:08,916
Correct?

1067
01:11:12,291 --> 01:11:13,750
What dark magic?

1068
01:11:14,416 --> 01:11:15,916
What children's poem?

1069
01:11:17,208 --> 01:11:19,250
More villagers died here back then.

1070
01:11:21,083 --> 01:11:22,250
Are these stories

1071
01:11:22,333 --> 01:11:24,125
meant to make me a laughingstock?

1072
01:11:25,250 --> 01:11:27,000
Are you placing your pride
above others' lives?

1073
01:11:27,083 --> 01:11:28,333
Insolence!

1074
01:11:29,000 --> 01:11:30,166
My child!

1075
01:11:31,375 --> 01:11:32,625
Husband... my dear!

1076
01:11:49,833 --> 01:11:51,083
Don't be sad.

1077
01:11:53,458 --> 01:11:55,000
The way your father is

1078
01:11:56,208 --> 01:11:57,833
has always been clear.

1079
01:12:01,791 --> 01:12:03,041
And so...

1080
01:12:03,750 --> 01:12:06,333
we should avoid
getting into their affairs, child.

1081
01:12:12,125 --> 01:12:13,958
I will take care of things myself.

1082
01:12:14,541 --> 01:12:16,833
If he won't act, then I will.

1083
01:13:16,458 --> 01:13:19,166
Did you do all this, Phong?

1084
01:14:41,083 --> 01:14:45,083
<i>Trieu Thi Phong...</i>

1085
01:14:45,166 --> 01:14:46,791
<i>Trieu Thi Phong...</i>

1086
01:15:09,458 --> 01:15:10,541
Father!

1087
01:15:11,958 --> 01:15:13,875
I found the medicine you need.

1088
01:15:55,666 --> 01:15:57,916
No, no, no...

1089
01:16:01,583 --> 01:16:02,833
No...

1090
01:16:02,916 --> 01:16:04,541
No, no, no...

1091
01:16:08,541 --> 01:16:10,000
No, no, no!

1092
01:17:06,083 --> 01:17:07,083
- Where's the chief?
- Sir Khoi!

1093
01:17:07,166 --> 01:17:09,583
- Come quick, Sir Khoi!
- Come here, Chief!

1094
01:17:09,666 --> 01:17:10,875
Come here, Chief!

1095
01:17:13,208 --> 01:17:14,250
There he is!

1096
01:17:20,500 --> 01:17:22,166
My father is dead!

1097
01:17:23,875 --> 01:17:25,958
I locked those puppets up.

1098
01:17:29,000 --> 01:17:31,208
So how are they on my grounds now...

1099
01:17:32,000 --> 01:17:33,541
next to my father's corpse?!

1100
01:18:05,208 --> 01:18:06,625
Kham...

1101
01:18:06,708 --> 01:18:08,041
Kham, calm yourself.

1102
01:18:13,208 --> 01:18:14,083
Don't!

1103
01:18:15,500 --> 01:18:17,208
What did you promise us?

1104
01:18:19,083 --> 01:18:20,958
What did you promise the entire village?

1105
01:18:21,833 --> 01:18:22,958
Oh, oh...

1106
01:18:23,041 --> 01:18:25,125
Husband! Dear!

1107
01:18:25,750 --> 01:18:28,041
- You...
- Or are you the dark art practitioner?

1108
01:18:29,291 --> 01:18:31,583
Killing people based on the poem?

1109
01:18:38,375 --> 01:18:39,208
Sir Khoi!

1110
01:18:39,291 --> 01:18:41,791
Do you remember your promise to us?

1111
01:18:45,000 --> 01:18:48,666
That if anything else happened
to us villagers,

1112
01:18:51,750 --> 01:18:53,791
that you would all pay with your lives?

1113
01:18:54,291 --> 01:18:55,333
- Pay up!
- Pay up!

1114
01:18:55,416 --> 01:18:56,875
- With your lives!
- Pay up!

1115
01:18:56,958 --> 01:18:58,208
With your lives!

1116
01:18:58,291 --> 01:19:00,416
- Pay up! Pay up!
- Pay up!

1117
01:19:00,500 --> 01:19:01,333
- With your lives!
- How is it

1118
01:19:01,416 --> 01:19:03,791
that only his household
can leave this place?

1119
01:19:03,875 --> 01:19:05,791
Since we're all barred from leaving,

1120
01:19:05,875 --> 01:19:09,083
how the hell could we know
about the demons he's befriended?

1121
01:19:09,166 --> 01:19:10,458
Everyone!

1122
01:19:11,000 --> 01:19:13,583
There are still unanswered questions,
so please wait and listen to me.

1123
01:19:14,291 --> 01:19:17,041
Even now, you still refuse
to confess, Phong?

1124
01:19:26,333 --> 01:19:28,541
Take another look at your wounds.

1125
01:19:32,125 --> 01:19:33,375
You forget how you got them?

1126
01:19:44,250 --> 01:19:46,333
What? What did she do?

1127
01:19:49,750 --> 01:19:52,125
<i>Last night, you went wild
and knocked me out.</i>

1128
01:19:54,166 --> 01:19:56,583
<i>When I came to,
these things were in the house.</i>

1129
01:20:27,833 --> 01:20:30,958
Each item is evidence against you, Phong.

1130
01:20:33,458 --> 01:20:36,125
The killings are her family's plan.

1131
01:20:36,916 --> 01:20:39,041
That's right, it's her family.

1132
01:20:40,041 --> 01:20:41,416
Steal a life, pay a life!

1133
01:20:41,500 --> 01:20:43,000
Steal a life, pay a life!

1134
01:20:43,583 --> 01:20:44,666
Steal a life, pay a life!

1135
01:20:44,750 --> 01:20:46,583
Your household must pay!

1136
01:20:46,666 --> 01:20:47,541
Murderers!

1137
01:20:47,625 --> 01:20:48,916
Damn your family!

1138
01:20:49,708 --> 01:20:51,250
Steal a life, pay a life!

1139
01:20:51,333 --> 01:20:53,083
Steal a life, pay a life!

1140
01:20:54,125 --> 01:20:55,750
- Steal a life, pay a life!
- Murderers!

1141
01:20:55,833 --> 01:20:57,541
Return my daughters!

1142
01:20:57,625 --> 01:20:59,208
Return them both!

1143
01:20:59,291 --> 01:21:00,708
Madam Tam!

1144
01:21:00,791 --> 01:21:03,416
What did my Huong do to be killed by you?

1145
01:21:03,500 --> 01:21:06,291
Devils, all of you! Go to hell!

1146
01:21:06,375 --> 01:21:08,833
- Wicked bunch!
- Return my child to me.

1147
01:21:11,166 --> 01:21:12,666
Evildoers!

1148
01:21:16,791 --> 01:21:19,000
You've been so wicked, Phong.

1149
01:21:21,708 --> 01:21:23,333
I can never save you again.

1150
01:21:29,916 --> 01:21:31,625
Round up these killers.

1151
01:22:53,125 --> 01:22:55,375
<i>Oh, Kham!</i>

1152
01:23:00,000 --> 01:23:02,291
<i>Let me have a peek.</i>

1153
01:23:12,666 --> 01:23:13,708
Kill it!

1154
01:23:13,791 --> 01:23:15,625
- Monsters!
- You scoundrel!

1155
01:23:17,208 --> 01:23:19,083
- Die!
- Go die!

1156
01:23:19,791 --> 01:23:21,041
Burn her!

1157
01:23:33,250 --> 01:23:35,166
Mr. Dan, where is my father?

1158
01:23:36,583 --> 01:23:38,208
I'm here, here to save my daughter.

1159
01:23:39,000 --> 01:23:40,208
Hang on, hang on...

1160
01:23:41,958 --> 01:23:43,750
Crazy Dan! I've had enough of you.

1161
01:23:43,833 --> 01:23:45,458
I'll get rid of you both in one shot.

1162
01:23:47,291 --> 01:23:48,708
Lay your hands on my girl

1163
01:23:48,791 --> 01:23:49,833
and I'll bite the fuck out of you.

1164
01:23:49,916 --> 01:23:51,250
Do you dare?

1165
01:24:00,166 --> 01:24:01,166
Go, Phong!

1166
01:24:01,250 --> 01:24:02,833
- Go!
- Just run!

1167
01:24:08,583 --> 01:24:09,583
Phong!

1168
01:24:10,500 --> 01:24:14,250
This is the formal dress we wore
to mark our union.

1169
01:24:14,958 --> 01:24:16,458
But today,

1170
01:24:17,500 --> 01:24:19,791
I'm wearing mine to banish
your house to hell.

1171
01:24:21,666 --> 01:24:23,166
Revenge for the village!

1172
01:24:23,250 --> 01:24:24,500
- Revenge!
- Revenge!

1173
01:24:24,583 --> 01:24:26,833
- Get Phong out here now!
- Revenge!

1174
01:24:26,916 --> 01:24:28,750
- Revenge...
- Everyone!

1175
01:24:28,833 --> 01:24:30,625
None of this is my family's doing.

1176
01:24:31,791 --> 01:24:33,416
Phong!

1177
01:24:33,500 --> 01:24:34,750
Your father's here!

1178
01:24:34,833 --> 01:24:37,375
- Phong!
- Oh, child!

1179
01:24:48,875 --> 01:24:49,791
Kham!

1180
01:24:49,875 --> 01:24:52,333
She has fooled you and killed your father.

1181
01:24:54,583 --> 01:24:55,833
But you remain stupid,

1182
01:24:57,916 --> 01:24:59,625
stupid enough to still protect her.

1183
01:25:04,291 --> 01:25:06,041
The wicked scoffs.

1184
01:25:07,625 --> 01:25:09,250
Lost be your heart.

1185
01:25:11,166 --> 01:25:12,958
Maiden's fresh red

1186
01:25:13,625 --> 01:25:15,416
to serve things dread.

1187
01:25:16,291 --> 01:25:18,250
Brew up some wine

1188
01:25:19,583 --> 01:25:21,125
to command the guards,

1189
01:25:22,250 --> 01:25:23,583
to live again.

1190
01:25:28,000 --> 01:25:30,916
When did you first decide
to do this, Sang?

1191
01:25:34,458 --> 01:25:35,958
Everyone, think.

1192
01:25:37,625 --> 01:25:39,916
If I'm really the murderer,

1193
01:25:40,000 --> 01:25:42,458
would I be careless enough
to leave evidence around my place

1194
01:25:42,541 --> 01:25:44,375
for others to be able
to charge me so easily?

1195
01:25:45,041 --> 01:25:45,875
- That's right!
- True!

1196
01:25:45,958 --> 01:25:47,041
- True, true!
- That's right!

1197
01:25:47,125 --> 01:25:49,625
Everything is this scum's doing.

1198
01:25:55,916 --> 01:25:57,166
What are you saying, Phong?

1199
01:26:02,625 --> 01:26:04,166
Can you hear your words right now?

1200
01:26:05,208 --> 01:26:06,833
Do you have any proof?

1201
01:26:07,416 --> 01:26:10,333
Or will you once again use the poem
to call me wicked?

1202
01:26:11,416 --> 01:26:12,666
Huh?

1203
01:26:13,291 --> 01:26:14,625
My mother used her last words

1204
01:26:14,708 --> 01:26:17,375
to talk about the Skull Wine.

1205
01:26:18,083 --> 01:26:20,208
<i>Keep this book</i>

1206
01:26:20,291 --> 01:26:21,541
<i>then give it</i>

1207
01:26:22,416 --> 01:26:24,208
<i>to Phong.</i>

1208
01:26:28,166 --> 01:26:29,416
<i>Oh, Phong!</i>

1209
01:26:29,500 --> 01:26:31,041
<i>I used to be a priestess.</i>

1210
01:26:31,875 --> 01:26:34,291
<i>That year, our bandit ancestors</i>

1211
01:26:34,375 --> 01:26:36,125
<i>murdered a clan.</i>

1212
01:26:36,208 --> 01:26:39,291
<i>All were killed except an expecting woman.</i>

1213
01:26:39,791 --> 01:26:42,083
<i>I've always had a feeling that</i>

1214
01:26:42,166 --> 01:26:44,625
<i>she would return to take revenge.</i>

1215
01:26:44,708 --> 01:26:46,500
<i>When I arrived at Hellbound,</i>

1216
01:26:46,583 --> 01:26:50,416
<i>I blessed the gate
so no lost soul could enter.</i>

1217
01:26:50,500 --> 01:26:54,083
<i>But your hard karma may cause
the safeguards to dissolve.</i>

1218
01:26:56,708 --> 01:26:58,000
<i>How many lives you took,</i>

1219
01:26:58,083 --> 01:27:00,250
<i>that much cost you'll pay.</i>

1220
01:27:00,791 --> 01:27:03,250
<i>I will curse your seeds and heirs.</i>

1221
01:27:03,333 --> 01:27:05,916
<i>One will let me enter the village.</i>

1222
01:27:06,000 --> 01:27:07,958
<i>One will help me kill.</i>

1223
01:27:08,041 --> 01:27:12,375
<i>And one will forget about my past.</i>

1224
01:27:12,458 --> 01:27:15,625
<i>The darkest art of my whole clan</i>

1225
01:27:15,708 --> 01:27:19,625
<i>will ensure you stay empty, stay barren.</i>

1226
01:27:22,958 --> 01:27:25,666
<i>She will need the souls of five people,</i>

1227
01:27:25,750 --> 01:27:28,083
<i>and to obscure the ferry woman,</i>

1228
01:27:28,166 --> 01:27:30,833
<i>she will trap the soul inside an object</i>

1229
01:27:30,916 --> 01:27:34,291
<i>then wait for the right time
to show up and reap it.</i>

1230
01:27:36,833 --> 01:27:38,125
<i>You must take care.</i>

1231
01:27:38,208 --> 01:27:41,041
<i>For once she has arrived,
she will find only you</i>

1232
01:27:41,125 --> 01:27:44,250
<i>and possess you so you will kill
with no awareness of it.</i>

1233
01:27:48,916 --> 01:27:51,625
<i>My son and I shall meet again,</i>

1234
01:27:51,708 --> 01:27:54,500
<i>in flesh and soul.</i>

1235
01:28:06,583 --> 01:28:08,458
And the final killing would be to retrieve

1236
01:28:08,541 --> 01:28:10,083
the heart of a wicked soul.

1237
01:28:10,166 --> 01:28:12,458
Killing my family will be useless.

1238
01:28:13,958 --> 01:28:15,750
For the heart that is wicked

1239
01:28:15,833 --> 01:28:17,333
is the one inside you.

1240
01:28:18,958 --> 01:28:20,708
You think I believe this book?

1241
01:28:21,958 --> 01:28:22,791
Huh?

1242
01:28:23,375 --> 01:28:24,750
You think I'm still a child?

1243
01:28:25,333 --> 01:28:26,166
Huh?

1244
01:28:30,333 --> 01:28:31,541
Where is your fern bracelet?

1245
01:28:36,208 --> 01:28:38,208
Please spare me my life!

1246
01:28:39,291 --> 01:28:41,416
You killed my father.

1247
01:28:42,166 --> 01:28:45,125
You animal! You killed my father!

1248
01:28:48,125 --> 01:28:50,833
<i>Kham.</i>

1249
01:29:02,583 --> 01:29:03,750
It was him!

1250
01:29:07,583 --> 01:29:10,291
- Monster.
- Murderer.

1251
01:29:20,458 --> 01:29:23,041
- Demon!
- Scoundrel!

1252
01:29:25,000 --> 01:29:26,416
Return my daughters!

1253
01:29:34,083 --> 01:29:35,458
Mother!

1254
01:29:35,541 --> 01:29:38,166
Oh, mother!

1255
01:29:40,250 --> 01:29:42,541
Sir Chan! Sir Chan...

1256
01:29:42,625 --> 01:29:44,291
please save my mother!

1257
01:29:44,375 --> 01:29:45,500
Let go!

1258
01:29:45,583 --> 01:29:47,208
What is there to save?

1259
01:29:47,291 --> 01:29:49,083
You all will die soon.

1260
01:29:49,750 --> 01:29:51,291
Why ask for my help?

1261
01:29:51,875 --> 01:29:53,291
Do you want me to be cursed too?

1262
01:29:55,000 --> 01:29:56,708
Crimson sweat!

1263
01:30:06,041 --> 01:30:07,541
On this day,

1264
01:30:09,500 --> 01:30:11,833
I will kill all you dogs,

1265
01:30:15,083 --> 01:30:16,791
I will take your heads,

1266
01:30:18,541 --> 01:30:20,375
I will have your livers,

1267
01:30:21,166 --> 01:30:23,416
I will gouge out your eyes...

1268
01:30:24,333 --> 01:30:26,291
all for my mother.

1269
01:30:28,375 --> 01:30:29,958
The Skull Wine

1270
01:30:31,041 --> 01:30:32,500
will bring me to you, child.

1271
01:30:34,875 --> 01:30:36,208
Five souls total

1272
01:30:36,791 --> 01:30:38,333
for one hallowed wine.

1273
01:30:39,791 --> 01:30:41,041
You take the flesh,

1274
01:30:42,083 --> 01:30:43,208
I reap the soul.

1275
01:30:43,791 --> 01:30:47,250
You must marry someone with hard karma,

1276
01:30:47,333 --> 01:30:51,666
so that they
will locate the body parts for you.

1277
01:30:52,333 --> 01:30:53,458
The soul reaper...

1278
01:30:54,083 --> 01:30:56,041
...will assist the brewer.

1279
01:30:58,791 --> 01:30:59,875
At this point then,
does anyone still wonder

1280
01:30:59,958 --> 01:31:03,375
who has been killing
based on a children's poem?

1281
01:31:05,500 --> 01:31:07,333
- It's me!
- You monster!

1282
01:31:07,416 --> 01:31:08,458
Give me back my daughters!

1283
01:31:08,541 --> 01:31:12,250
Do you know who
the Skull Wine brewer here is?

1284
01:31:13,125 --> 01:31:14,750
It's me!

1285
01:31:21,666 --> 01:31:24,541
<i>I wish I knew where the five parts were,</i>

1286
01:31:24,625 --> 01:31:25,833
<i>so I didn't need to use you.</i>

1287
01:31:28,666 --> 01:31:30,958
<i>All you are is a meek woman,</i>

1288
01:31:31,625 --> 01:31:33,958
<i>unable to do something so basic as kill.</i>

1289
01:31:40,833 --> 01:31:42,833
Sang, please help me!

1290
01:31:50,958 --> 01:31:52,458
<i>The hand of a skilled soul.</i>

1291
01:31:54,500 --> 01:31:56,083
<i>The feet of a fast soul.</i>

1292
01:32:06,250 --> 01:32:07,416
Phong, run!

1293
01:32:09,166 --> 01:32:10,833
<i>The liver of a brave soul.</i>

1294
01:32:16,208 --> 01:32:17,625
<i>The head of a smart soul.</i>

1295
01:32:24,166 --> 01:32:25,291
Lady Thap!

1296
01:32:27,125 --> 01:32:30,333
Without my help, how will you
get those five souls, am I right?

1297
01:32:30,833 --> 01:32:32,208
You need me!

1298
01:32:33,458 --> 01:32:36,416
The Skull Wine is mine!

1299
01:32:36,500 --> 01:32:38,958
All mine!

1300
01:32:39,041 --> 01:32:40,166
Sang!

1301
01:32:40,250 --> 01:32:41,625
Heavens, Sang has become demonic.

1302
01:32:41,708 --> 01:32:44,708
- Animal!
- Everyone, run!

1303
01:32:44,791 --> 01:32:46,333
He is planning to kill us all.

1304
01:32:46,416 --> 01:32:48,291
- Run!
- Run away!

1305
01:32:48,375 --> 01:32:51,291
- Run!
- Shut your mouth, old man.

1306
01:32:51,375 --> 01:32:54,625
You all really think
your lives are worth living?

1307
01:32:55,416 --> 01:32:57,708
One is a thief. One is an adulterer.

1308
01:32:57,791 --> 01:32:59,000
One is a liar.

1309
01:32:59,083 --> 01:33:00,166
But you are a murderer.

1310
01:33:00,250 --> 01:33:02,291
Let my daughter go!

1311
01:33:10,916 --> 01:33:12,291
Murderer where?

1312
01:33:12,375 --> 01:33:13,375
Who is the murderer?

1313
01:33:13,458 --> 01:33:15,250
Who? Who is it?

1314
01:33:15,333 --> 01:33:16,625
Who is it? Who is the murderer?

1315
01:33:16,708 --> 01:33:19,083
Murderer! Murderer!

1316
01:33:46,041 --> 01:33:47,416
Daughter!

1317
01:33:48,750 --> 01:33:49,791
Where are you going, dear?

1318
01:33:50,666 --> 01:33:53,708
Lay your hands on my girl
and I'll bite the fuck out of you!

1319
01:33:53,791 --> 01:33:55,875
Your daughter is dead!

1320
01:33:58,333 --> 01:33:59,333
You lie!

1321
01:34:00,500 --> 01:34:01,750
Where's my girl?

1322
01:34:04,875 --> 01:34:06,083
Where has she gone?

1323
01:34:07,125 --> 01:34:08,333
Child, don't leave me!

1324
01:34:08,416 --> 01:34:09,708
Father!

1325
01:34:34,541 --> 01:34:35,708
Phong!

1326
01:34:42,250 --> 01:34:43,541
Run now, Phong!

1327
01:34:43,625 --> 01:34:45,375
Phong! Run! Get away!

1328
01:35:54,250 --> 01:35:57,625
Phong! I know you are here.

1329
01:36:03,625 --> 01:36:04,625
Minh!

1330
01:36:08,375 --> 01:36:09,250
Sister Phong!

1331
01:36:11,250 --> 01:36:12,166
Run!

1332
01:36:16,041 --> 01:36:17,500
Run away, Minh!

1333
01:36:32,250 --> 01:36:33,583
Die! Die!

1334
01:37:11,916 --> 01:37:12,750
Minh!

1335
01:37:12,833 --> 01:37:14,250
Run now!

1336
01:38:22,166 --> 01:38:23,125
Your mother's here!

1337
01:38:24,000 --> 01:38:25,000
Sang!

1338
01:38:25,083 --> 01:38:26,833
Quiet down, bitch!

1339
01:38:28,833 --> 01:38:30,750
Did you forget that I can see the unseen?

1340
01:38:30,833 --> 01:38:32,416
Your mother is looking at you!

1341
01:38:35,916 --> 01:38:37,166
Mother!

1342
01:38:38,625 --> 01:38:40,166
Mother!

1343
01:38:41,666 --> 01:38:43,041
Mother!

1344
01:38:43,666 --> 01:38:44,833
Mother!

1345
01:38:45,500 --> 01:38:46,791
Mother!

1346
01:38:48,833 --> 01:38:50,166
Mother!

1347
01:39:01,750 --> 01:39:03,041
Where is she?

1348
01:39:05,375 --> 01:39:06,875
Where is she?

1349
01:39:30,541 --> 01:39:31,875
What Lady Thap needs

1350
01:39:31,958 --> 01:39:34,125
is your wicked heart and your rotten soul.

1351
01:39:35,375 --> 01:39:37,958
Since the start,
Lady Thap has blinded you.

1352
01:39:38,541 --> 01:39:41,208
The Skull Wine
only asks for five body parts,

1353
01:39:42,416 --> 01:39:44,625
but she desires more.

1354
01:39:44,708 --> 01:39:47,625
She also needs five souls
to be able to return in the flesh.

1355
01:39:48,458 --> 01:39:51,458
You are just a puppet
to Lady Thap, dear Sang!

1356
01:40:00,125 --> 01:40:03,000
So it turns out that when you said

1357
01:40:05,708 --> 01:40:07,625
that you saw the soul reaper,

1358
01:40:10,583 --> 01:40:11,750
you weren't lying.

1359
01:40:18,083 --> 01:40:23,541
<i>Oh, soul! Climb aboard!</i>

1360
01:40:27,125 --> 01:40:32,375
<i>Oh, soul! Climb aboard!</i>

1361
01:40:42,708 --> 01:40:44,291
<i>Trieu Thi Phong.</i>

1362
01:40:45,666 --> 01:40:46,500
Why now...

1363
01:40:47,416 --> 01:40:49,291
are you here all on your own?

1364
01:40:49,875 --> 01:40:51,500
My father won't let me go down.

1365
01:40:51,583 --> 01:40:53,458
I've asked and asked again.

1366
01:40:55,000 --> 01:40:56,750
I bet it's fun down the mountain.

1367
01:41:00,916 --> 01:41:02,166
How about...

1368
01:41:04,625 --> 01:41:06,416
you take me into the village?

1369
01:41:07,666 --> 01:41:08,708
I promise

1370
01:41:09,333 --> 01:41:11,625
I'll lead your family down.

1371
01:41:16,000 --> 01:41:17,125
What is your name?

1372
01:41:17,916 --> 01:41:19,541
It is Lady Thap.

1373
01:41:21,416 --> 01:41:22,916
We will

1374
01:41:23,000 --> 01:41:24,916
soon meet each other.

1375
01:42:04,541 --> 01:42:07,500
This soul here is mine.

1376
01:42:07,583 --> 01:42:09,416
All you evildoers

1377
01:42:09,500 --> 01:42:12,916
will never be ferried to the hereafter.

1378
01:42:16,250 --> 01:42:20,958
<i>Oh, soul! Climb aboard!</i>

1379
01:42:51,666 --> 01:42:54,000
Don't ever think that
only you can reap souls.

1380
01:42:56,833 --> 01:42:59,541
Don't forget that you yourself
are a soul, Lady Thap!

1381
01:43:01,416 --> 01:43:03,250
I shall die with you.

1382
01:43:19,875 --> 01:43:21,541
I resent you all!

1383
01:43:22,458 --> 01:43:24,916
I resent you all!

1384
01:43:25,000 --> 01:43:27,083
I resent you all!

1385
01:43:34,416 --> 01:43:36,041
Come and take my life.

1386
01:43:37,083 --> 01:43:39,416
All I am is just a murderer.

1387
01:43:48,583 --> 01:43:49,666
Phong!

1388
01:43:50,208 --> 01:43:51,375
Phong!

1389
01:44:03,041 --> 01:44:05,000
Oh, Kham, something's wrong with Sang!

1390
01:44:07,083 --> 01:44:08,875
Sang! Sang! Please wake up, Sang!

1391
01:44:08,958 --> 01:44:09,791
Sang!

1392
01:44:10,625 --> 01:44:12,416
You were that worried
that I had died, Phong?

1393
01:44:12,500 --> 01:44:14,875
What if I died for real? Would you be sad?

1394
01:44:14,958 --> 01:44:17,541
You promised me you would marry me,

1395
01:44:17,625 --> 01:44:18,750
at night, wearing rat masks.

1396
01:44:18,833 --> 01:44:19,750
How can you die before then?

1397
01:44:24,250 --> 01:44:26,708
If in the future we are to face hardship,

1398
01:44:27,625 --> 01:44:28,958
we will face it together, yes?

1399
01:44:46,208 --> 01:44:48,125
At times, I have asked

1400
01:44:48,833 --> 01:44:51,958
if death was the only way
for someone to leave Hellbound.

1401
01:44:53,208 --> 01:44:58,250
<i>Oh, soul! Climb aboard!</i>

1402
01:45:32,000 --> 01:45:34,166
<i>The villagers once said that</i>

1403
01:45:35,041 --> 01:45:37,375
<i>if there were any more deaths,</i>

1404
01:45:39,083 --> 01:45:41,583
<i>Phong's family would have
to pay with their lives.</i>

1405
01:45:43,125 --> 01:45:46,208
<i>But now, we ask
for no more death around us.</i>

1406
01:45:47,625 --> 01:45:51,000
<i>Phong must live
to be punished by the villagers,</i>

1407
01:45:51,541 --> 01:45:54,375
<i>even when she didn't mean
to commit the crime.</i>

1408
01:45:57,250 --> 01:45:59,416
<i>Some villagers have also left,</i>

1409
01:46:00,625 --> 01:46:01,916
<i>for Lady Thap has disappeared,</i>

1410
01:46:03,333 --> 01:46:05,708
<i>and the protective charm has waned.</i>

1411
01:46:07,708 --> 01:46:10,416
<i>Only we have chosen to stay.</i>

1412
01:46:12,500 --> 01:46:15,291
<i>I will marry Minh</i>

1413
01:46:16,500 --> 01:46:18,750
<i>and create our future here.</i>

1414
01:46:19,666 --> 01:46:24,500
<i>In the end, life goes on.</i>
