Look here! Singapore. In the south of Malaya.

550,000 inhabitants. University, shipbuilding, and major ports.

And they d0n't list any of the 32 night clubs?

Have you ever worked in Singapore?

N0, but I once had a friend, an oil sheik, and we went there.

He was a great guy.

That's one with a turban?

D0n't worry, when he drops his turban he's just like every other man.

Got a light?

Are you looking forward to Singapore?

I don't care where I work, as long as the money is good.

That's him!

- Hi, Kate! - Hi!

I've been to Singapore before, boss.

I can tell from your looks.

Hello, Gary! Hello, Georgia! How do you do that? You get prettier every time!

- Mike? - Yeah?

Did you tell the girls what this is about?

Sure, Gary! A dance tour for the group.

First stop, Singapore. I have 12 girls for you to look at.

Okay, let's start, Georgia. Get the girls in, we d0n't have much time.

- Can we see the girls, Mr. Blackwood? - Yeah.

- But separately, please. - Yeah.

May?

- Smile! - Hello.

This is Mr. Webster, the boss of the ballet.

And this is May, one of my most reliable dancers.

- Where did you work before? - At the Blue Stars for a year.

A first-class group!

Légs?

Excuse me?

Mr. Webster wants to see her legs.

Thank you, y0u're hired. Please wait outside.

Oh, thank you!

This is Rhonda Hunter.

Dancer?

Not really. But I learn very fast.

Thanks, but we're just looking for experienced dancers.

- I thought we were going to Singapore? - Come on, girl. Don't slow us down.

This is Babs. Her legs are pure gold.

Can these golden legs dance too?

I was a solo dancer in the Apollo Variety.

Why did you stop there?

Her legs pleased the boss, but not so much his wife.

You can work with us. But no business with men! Our boss is very strict.

I have enough of them anyway.

Come.

This girl is from the opera ballet.

Can you show us something?

Sure! I even brought a record.

Let's see.

Thanks, Caroline. You dance excellently.

But unfortunately we're only looking for club dancers.

Oh, d0n't be sad, kid.

- Come back tomorrow! - Yeah?

- I have something else for you! - Thank you!

Hello, Cat! Come in.

Hello, Gary! Hi, Georgia!

- Well, Cat? Lost some weight? - I hardly eat anything anymore.

Well done, Cat. Just d0n't put on any weight again. Please wait outside.

I'm looking forward to working with both of you again!

Next! Hello!

This is Gladys and Jorene.

I wanted to see them separately.

These two have always danced together as a solo act.

We really want to stay together.

With us you have to dance in the group.

That's fine. As long as we can be together.

Y0u're both hired. Please send in the next one.

- Will do. - Thank you!

Goodbye.

Linda, come on!

Hello.

Hm, what are you doing?

You d0n't know that?

Ha, didn't you do the same thing in the Kit Kat Club?

Y0u're right, boss.

And why did you quit there?

The boss had special plans, but I didn't.

Tell me, are you always so stubborn?

That depends on the boss, boss. Should I audition?

- Not necessary. You're hired. - Okay.

Wait outside.

Next!

My name is Nelly Hastings.

A new one! I haven't seen her yet, but she was in great groups. She'll audition.

Please.

Thank you! You're hired. Please wait outside.

We're done here, Mr. Blackwood.

Good, Georgia. G0 and tell the girls when the costume and dance rehearsals are, yes?

Okay.

Tell me, Gary, who's the boss again, now that Georgia hires all the girls?

I'm hiring the girls!

You? You haven't said a word!

I have a little trick. When I put my legs side by side, I'm not interested.

But if I cross them, I hire them.

You crazy guy. When do you start?

Um... in ten days.

Well then, break a leg, Gary!

Thank you.

We're flying over the silent ocean at the height of Honolulu.

Altitude 5000 meters.

Mayday! Mayday! Clipper 247! Clipper 247!

Losing constant altitude. We only have 2000 meters left.

An engine is burning. Our... position is...

Come in! Come in!

Damn, he's not answering! Clipper 247!

Mr. Hastings, I repeat, there is no reason to fear the worst.

S0 far we only know that the plane caught fire and we lost radio contact.

Yes, I'll call you immediately with any news.

Blackwood Agency.

N0, Mr. Gable, I d0n't have any new information yet.

Of course! There's a search operation. Aircraft are searching the sea, and all ships are notified.

After 4 days there's still hope!

Yes! I'll call you right away when I hear anything.

Stop crying! You're driving us crazy.

Water! Just a sip of water, please.

There's nothing left for today.

You'll get a new ration tomorrow.

Gary, give me water!

G0 to hell!

The fifth night! We w0n't last much longer.

Now d0n't you start, too.

There has to be a ship or an island somewhere in this damn ocean!

Water! Just a sip of water!

A bird!

When there's a bird, there must be land!

You pig! Give it to me!

There! Gary! There!

Land!

There is land! Help me row! Row with your hands!

D0n't give in! We can do it. We'll be saved!

It's not far anymore!

- I can't do it... - Come! Work together!

- Georgia, lie down. - I'll help you. We're almost there!

Babs!

Kate!

Georgia.

Water!

Water! Water! Water! Come here! Come!

Water!

Water!

Come, Gladys!

Come here!

Here! Here!

Fasfl

Come on, that's enough.

Let's see where we are. Come, come. G0, go.

Georgia!

And the others too. Let's go!

Ah, that was good.

- D0 you feel better now? D0n't dawdle. - Damn shoes!

Thanks!

They're a bit high for here.

- Hello, Cat! Your scarf! - Keep it!

Come on!

- Oh, this is like paradise. - Yeah!

In any case, we're safe here.

Wait a minute! Did you hear that?

N0.

Well, let's move on.

I didn't hear anything either.

I like it here.

Who would have thought of this yesterday?

- Ouch! That stings. - Help!

Hold on!

Thanks.

Come. Let's get over there.

Ow!

Be careful girls, there are thorns.

Ow! Ow!

Gary! What a strange silence.

Let's go on.

Come.

- Wait. - Come on.

Oh, my shoe!

Gary! Look what I've found.

A hammer? Then someone else has to be on the island.

A hammer with a long handle?

That could mean that someone is looking for metal here on the island.

Or even uranium.

Can you eat that?

You can give it a try! Come on, maybe we'll find someone.

G0 on.

Come! Come!

Come!

Acabin!

Come, Anne...

Horrible! A dead man in a web!

- I have to get him down. - Gary!

It's not working!

I need something.

Gary, there!

- My Bag! I have to get it. - Are you crazy?

I wouldn't be seen dead in a place like that.

Maybe we're safer in the cabin.

I'm so scared!

Hello!

- Come. - I don't know.

Come on.

Blackwood Agency. Yes, that's me.

What?

Did you find them?

N0 trace of them?

S0 they could still be alive?

What? The search is canceled?

You can't just give up if you haven't found them yet!

After all, nine lives are at stake.

I'll take every step to force you to continue the search!

The poor Professor.

When he wrote his last journal entry he didn't know how he'd die.

Yeah.

His big discovery of the uranium deposit didn't help him much.

Although it is valuable.

We can't tell the girls that the Professor might have foreseen his fate.

Yes, it's here in the last paragraph.

He felt that something terrible was about t0 happen.

He felt a great danger.

Where does the eerie hiss he describes come from?

Oh Gary, I'm so afraid!

D0n't worry, Georgia. As long as I'm with you, I'll protect you.

Nothing will happen to you.

- Georgia! - l m SQ hungry!

I made you something to eat. I found some canned food.

Think about it, this spider has to be huge to spin such a large web.

- Maybe there are more of them. - A single spider couldn't spin that web alone.

- Stop it, y0u're spoiling my appetite. - Not mine!

- Aren't you scared at all? - Scared? Why? That doesn't help.

I'm scared something terrible might happen again.

There!

We found things from the Professor.

We can use them!

One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine... okay!

If we ration the food, it'll last for one month.

What are you saying, Georgia? A month?

You think that we'll still be here then?

I d0n't know.

We have to start a fire in the morning.

From the highest place on this island.

Maybe a ship will see us.

Ten, eleven, twelve...

- Give me that shirt! - N0, that's mine!

I found it in the first place!

But my dress is the most torn!

- N0, I want it! - Let it go!

Hey!

Stop arguing. Give me the shirt.

Here, Georgia.

Thanks, Gary.

I knew that Georgia would get it.

Have you ever noticed that she's always Gary's favorite?

Well, what's that? Where'd you get this sweater from?

- I found it, if you don't mind. - Stupid cow.

This stops immediately, or I'll lose my temper.

Please, Gladys.

D0n't be so hard on us, Gary.

We're just nervous. Who could blame us?

Believe me, I'd rather sit at a bar in Singapore with a nice cold drink,

than here in this godforsaken place.

With this nasty stuff.

Damned heat!

Watch out! You're making too much noise!

If you d0n't like it, why d0n't you wash the dishes?

Or do you think I'm doing this for fun?

Geez, leave me alone!

This heat is truly unbearable.

Throw your dirty blouse somewhere else, I'm trying to sleep here!

I hope you d0n't lose your lipstick.

You w0n't survive without it.

Hello, I'm done!

It's about time! I'm taking a shower. Give it to me.

Okay, kids. Let's go to sleep. Come on.

- I'm going to sleep outside. - Goodnight.

- Me too. - Goodnight.

- Goodnight. - Goodnight.

Great! I found the Pr0fess0r's revolver.

You should sleep too, Gary.

I can't. I'm going to take a walk outside.

D0n't worry, I'll be back soon.

Gary.

Gary.

That damn heat! I don't even know what I'm doing anymore.

Those were shots! I heard them!

I hope Gary's okay!

I'm going! Whether you come or not!

- Stay here! D0n't leave us! - You w0n't be able to find him!

Stop everything y0u're doing. We have to find Gary!

Babs and Em! You go in that direction. Where's Cat?

- Here, Georgia! - You two go in the opposite direction.

May and Cat, you come with me.

I'm so scared...

Quick, come!

And what do I do?

You? You stay here. You take care of the cabin until we come back.

Hmph.

Gary!

- Stop whistling! - I don't hear anything.

- Gary! - Gary!

- Gary! - Gary!

- Gary! - Gary!

Gary!

Come on, we have to keep looking!

Without me. I'm staying here.

- Shhh! D0 you hear that? - N0.

- There's something moving. - I don't hear anything.

Gary!

- Gladys, wait! - Then keep moving!

- Gary! - Gary!

- Gary! - Gary!

Gary!

- Gary! - Gary!

Gary!

Gary!

Someone screamed! I heard it, all right!

I heard it too!

Yeah, the scream came from over there!

Linda!

Help me!

This is terrible.

She was strangled.

The spider!

Ann! Ann!

Oh, Georgia! It's terrible! The Professor is dead!

Gary disappeared! We buried Linda!

Who will be next? I don't want to die!

- Not me! - Ann! Ann! Calm down!

Y0u'll drive us all crazy.

I d0n't...

They'll never find us! Never!

The police will do everything they can to find us!

The police! I know them well.

If y0u're driving too fast or you're drunk, they'll stop you in a second.

But when you need help, they won't lift a finger.

D0 you think they'll get off their asses for some lost dancing girls?

How would they know we saved ourselves 0n this island in the middle 0f nowhere?

Saved? Who's saved? Us?

Show me the island on a map! Where is it? Yeah, show me!

We'll be dead when they find us. You, you and you! One after the other.

Babs!

Pull yourself together! You're scaring the girls!

Ms. Georgia! Of all people!

Gary and Linda's fate is all your fault!

Babs! D0 you know what you're saying?

Of course! lt's your jealousy!

You sh0uld've never left Linda alone in the cabin.

Shut up! lt's not Ge0rgia's fault that Linda's dead!

D0n't touch me! Or I'll kill you!

Try it, you beast!

' Nelly! _ away!

Stop! Babs, Nelly, stop!

- Babs! - Stay here! Leave them alone!

Come here.

Come! Come!

- Is the ship approaching? - I don't know.

- Should I get more? - N0, that's enough.

They have to see us. They can't just leave us here. Hello!

Stop screaming! I'm going crazy!

Get off! Hello! Take us with you!

Hello! We're here!

We're here! Don't leave us!

You have to yell! Hello!

Hello! Take us with you! Hello!

It's passed. lt's gone.

Oh, May, we'll never get home.

It's been 28 days now. 28 long days and nights.

And nobody knows where we are!

And now a ship goes by! Our rescue! S0 close!

Ann! May!

Oh, Georgia! A ship! There was a ship!

It's leaving! Terrible! And we only have food left for 3 more days!

Ann!

Ann! Come on, Ann. Ann.

You can start, and I'll take care of the rudders.

Okay.

Why do you take them so far away?

D0 you think a mermaid will steal our boat?

Oh man! Let's not talk about women on this goddamn island.

You sh0uld've brought one as a weekly ration.

I wanted to! But it wasn't approved.

T00 bad!

- Come here. - Yeah, I'm coming.

Grab that.

Front, yes?

Slowly, slowly!

Man, that stuff is heavy!

You know, Robby, I'm still glad the Professor picked us as his co-workers,

even if it's a bit lonely here.

Give me the box of whiskey.

If there are no girls, at least we have whiskey.

You only think of booze and women. It's time for you to grow up.

You're starting t0 get on my nerves with your moral sermons.

Take the Professor, for example.

The old man is always so lucky.

While we search all the islands for half a year,

he comes along just once and immediately finds uranium.

Even on this goddamn island!

Hey! D0n't get so angry!

I'm going to look for the Professor now.

Okay, I'll unload the stuff.

- Have fun! - Huh?

N0 way.

Help!

Gladys!

Gladys! Gladys!

Quick! Get out! I'm scared!

But we have to help her!

S0 we'll all get killed? Come on!

Look, there!

Terrible!

The web in the cabin.

The revolver!

Gary took it along that night.

And his bracelet!

But where's Gary?

Oh Georgia, let's go, please. I'm so scared!

Maybe there are more spiders here.

Come on, sweetheart. Sit next to me.

What do you want from me?

You can have three guesses.

Originally, I wanted to ask you the time.

- Georgia! - Georgia!

- Georgia! - Georgia!

- Hello! Here! - Gladys is gone, down by the lagoon!

We waited, but she was pulled into the reeds!

- She screamed terribly! - Who was it? Did you see anyone?

N0, it all happened so fast.

Maybe it was the same spider who killed the Professor and Linda.

We found a huge spider. Dead!

Shot with the Professor's revolver.

And Gary's bracelet was there, too.

Shhhh! D0n't you hear that?

Stop! Hands up!

- Oh, hello, baby. - Hands up!

As you wish.

G0 to the cabin!

What a coincidence. That's exactly where I wanted to go.

Shut up and go!

Mm, okay.

Was it him? He d0esn't look so bad.

- Those are always the worst! - T00 bad.

Turn around!

Where's Gladys?

What did you do to her?

Let me talk to him.

Where's Gladys?

Gladys? N0 idea. Unfortunately, I d0n't know the lady.

I just arrived, down at the lagoon.

- You hear that, Georgia? - That's where we were bathing.

And where Gladys disappeared.

At the lagoon...

Oh...

Lose the smile! It'll pass soon!

I hardly believe that. Just turn around slowly.

Gladys!

Finally! There you are! Oh, I'm so happy!

Who is that?

My friend Robin. We work for Professor Green.

He's a great uranium explorer. I met him earlier at the ship.

An exploring explorer!

You were luckier than me. I almost got shot...

If the revolver had been loaded.

And you? Are you here for summer vacation?

Beautiful summer resort. If we hadn't found this island, we w0uldn't be alive.

We crashed on a flight to Singapore.

Oh, then you're the American dance group that disappeared.

How did you know that?

The press is covering your disappearance all over the world.

Well, I can imagine Professor Green's eyes when they turned up here.

Professor Green is... dead.

- What's up with the Professor? - Dead?

He was hanging in a big spider web. That's how we found him.

Linda is dead and Gary, our manager, has also disappeared.

- A spider web? - D0 you believe that?

Listen, our ship'll be here in two days.

We need t0 get in touch with them immediately,

so a task force can solve this case.

- Is that true? A ship is coming? - Yeah, our expedition ship.

- Please take us with you! - Of course!

We're saved!

Look, this 0ne's pretty!

The b0ys'll be surprised when they see what kind

of hula girls we've become.

And they've promised us real whiskey!

Girls, how I look forward to that!

Hold this. Should I put that in my hair?

You look gorgeous! Like a real islander.

Because I am one. After all, I've been here for four weeks.

Babs, I can't believe we'll be back in New York in a few days.

N0 one will believe it when when we tell

the world what's happened t0 us in this short time.

Where are Georgia and Ann?

Outside on the porch.

They're with Joe, trying to reach the ship by radio.

Will a lot of reporters be at the quay?

Hopefully!

L'm just looking forward to seeing James again.

Who's James?

My boyfriend. We want to get married this Christmas.

What if he's found another girl in the meantime?

You d0n't believe that, do you? I'd scratch his eyes out,

and he knows it.

Children, we got radio contact with the ship!

They'll pick us up tomorrow!

Tonight we'll dance!

What kind of girl is Ann?

A bit quiet, but she's one of the nicest.

That little girl is away from home for the first time.

Her parents live in New York.

I've never seen her so happy.

I want to dance with her.

Come, Robby, I want to be alone with you.

Yeah, let's go to the cabin.

Not in there. Some place where we can be all by ourselves.

You know what? Let's go to the lagoon.

But no one can know about this.

Good. We'll meet in 15 minutes on the small path down t0 the water.

I can't wait.

But be on time. I don't like to wait.

Thank you.

Have fun with that doll.

Shut up.

Hello? Did you catch fire?

Thanks.

Tell me. Are you always this quiet?

Oh, you know, when you live on lonely islands for so many years,

you forget how to talk to young ladies.

Try it.

Actually, I'm quite happy that your plane crashed.

Are you out of your mind?

But I mean... I mean... otherwise I wouldn't have met you at all.

S0 I'm happy about that.

You say that to all the girls.

Oh, Ann, I hardly know any.

And the ones I do know, I prefer my work over them.

I have to say, you know how to compliment.

Maybe you're right, and I need to deal more with young ladies.

You know, sometimes I envy Robby. He's always so carefree and playful.

Robby...

He likes all of them.

A real man is only interested in one woman.

Then I'm a real man.

Why?

Because there's only one woman that I care about.

Who is she? What does she look like? Pretty? Elegant?

Elegant? The opposite.

A bit run down and scruffy. But very pretty. Her name is Ann.

Look!

You do know how to make a compliment!

N0, no compliment. I really like you.

If you go back to New York, please take this,

so you w0n't forget me.

Joe,

please d0n't keep me waiting too long.

12 minutes left.

What's in 12 minutes?

My next rendezvous.

Hello!

Gosh!

Not bad either.

I really can't decide where to start first.

- Hello, Gladys! - Oh, it's you.

What's up?

Nothing.

Inlove?

D0 you really think that R0bby's the right man for you?

L'm not so sure.

I only know one thing. I love him.

I hope he d0esn't disappoint you.

I'd feel so sorry for you.

Other mothers also have pretty daughters.

Or d0n't you like me, sonny boy?

But my angel, y0u're just what the doctor ordered.

- Come on Gladys, forget him. - Oh, leave me alone!

Oh, Georgia, give me one too.

- Thanks.

- Robby? - Yeah?

D0 you have to turn the head of every single girl?

What? They turn mine!

Hello, Georgia!

Dancing made me thirsty.

Georgia, aren't you happy that we'll be home soon?

- Let's have a drink to that! - Yes!

- Cheers!

You think they're still talking about us today?

Of course! Especially now that we've found you.

D0 you think we'll be in the papers?

Kid, the press will tell your stories, the newspapers will

print your pictures, and you can only imagine what radio and television will do.

You'll be amazed at what's going on in New York when you come back.

Maybe they'll take us to Broadway!

With confetti!

You've certainly become a world-famous group.

Who knows, maybe you'll even end up in Hollywood.

Oh, Robby, maybe I can still make it.

Thank God, I've only got a few minutes left.

Because my next rendezvous is very important.

And who's the lucky one this time?

You can't tell anyone. lt's Gladys.

Robby, Gladys is a fine gal. But she has no experience with men yet.

Please, leave her alone.

But that's it! I've always looked for a girl like her and never found one.

Crap. Why am I telling you this?

- Oh Joe, I'm so happy. - That was my intention.

Here we go again. As soon as you're nice to a man, he gets cheeky.

Ann, I have something important to tell you. Come with me.

Hey, Ann?

Let her go.

They're all no good.

One like the other.

Come on, let's go have a drink.

Gladys, what did I tell you earlier?

D0n't you see that R0bby's shallow, and only plays with the girls?

He has no serious feelings.

- I d0n't want to see him anymore! - Gladys!

Listen, Robby. Your stupid remarks about Ann are way out of line.

You can't be serious. Did you develop a tender heart for this dancer? Well, then cheers.

And if so?

Then I feel sorry for you.

They're dancers. Hot goods for cold nights.

Or do you think your Ann is different?

For a guy like you, even the lousiest girl is still too good.

Not here. Come.

Hey.

Listen, l'm running out 0f time. I have to go to my next rendezvous.

- Hello, Gladys. - Leave me alone!

Are you crazy? What's up with you?

You really want to know?

You may think so! N0 man's safe from you, not even your best friend's man!

D0 you mean Robby?

Oh, yeah! But you can keep him! I'm done with him!

Then you're pretty stupid.

He just told me in the cabin that he always wanted a girl like you.

Is that really true, Babs?

D0 you think I would've left him otherwise?

Oh, Babs!

G0 on. He's waiting for you.

Robby?

But that was... a scream!

That was Gladys!

- R0bby's gone too! - I'm going to look for them!

Get dressed and follow me!

Damn it!

G0 and help Gladys. I'm getting the bullets. Quick!

Robby? Robby?

- Joe! - Georgia! Quick!

- Where are the bullets? - I don't know. Maybe there.

Quick, or we're lost! I found Robby in the woods, strangled!

R0bby's dead, too?

Where's the ammo?

Gary!

' Gemsia! " N0!

Stop! Everyone take a torch, then we'll hunt him.

- Give one to me! - Here.

Only fire can destroy him!

Let's go! Come!

Come! Fast! We have to surround him.

Two take the Liana path, two take the fishermen path there,

the rest can come with me.

Always stay together. Never walk alone. Come on!

Come on, he's over here!

Come on!

Look out!

Stop! Stand still! This is the beginning of the swamp!

Better dead than living like that.

Come. Babs, Cat.
