All language subtitles for Population Purge - 2024.eng

I suppose no one saw it coming.

Or perhaps we should have.

This wasn't some viral outbreak
of a deadly new disease.

May I have your
attention, please?

This is a reminder
from the district.

It was a government program.

If you know of any
unregistered citizen

with AB positive blood,
selling unregistered blood

is illegal and
punishable by death.

All in the name of
population management.

The government poisoned
every man, woman and child.

Genetically engineered
to only spare those with

the rarest blood
type, AB positive.

And now the few chosen ones must
share this wretched new world

with the last of these
hemocide survivors,

who only can survive
as long as they receive

regular infusions of
AB positive blood.

Government rations.

We are now accepting all
individuals who hold a red

or green blood ration card.

You must have a card in order
for you to participate in

the government's
blood ration program.

If you or anyone you
know is buying blood

on the underground market,
please report them immediately.

Purchasing blood outside
the government system

is not only harmful,
but illegal,

and may result in being put
to death if apprehended.

Remember, this
program is only for

those who survived the
recent governmental purge.

Steady, son.

Now, when I tell you,

I want you to point this where
the sound is coming from.

Number three.

Number three, I cannot hear you.

Speak up, please.

You hear that, son?

No plea, no seeking forgiveness.

Just his last words before hell
itself becomes his eternal home.

Well, welcome to the new
world order, Mr. Cooper.

Don't you just love
it? New world order.

Has a nice ring to
it, don't you think?

I suppose we should call you

by your proper
title, shouldn't we?

Bishop Cooper.

Members of the jury,
your verdict, please.

Oh, I love it when we all agree!

Justice...

is served on this here day,

Mr. Cooper.

Concentrate, son.

May I have your
attention, please?

If a member of your
family is being purged,

we ask that you remain in

our bereavement
room until called.

The governmental
purge is painless

and the entire process will
only last a few minutes.

To the remaining citizens

of the once fair
town, East River...

designated district 22.

As you all know, it
has been some time now

since the day of the poison.

And as they say, that
which does not kill us...

makes us stronger.

We will persevere and
we will remain steadfast

and I will do everything
in my power...

as your district warden to
get you back up on your feet.

I stand ready to lead
you into a new future

where we will rebuild
our infrastructure

to reverse what they did to us.

Come on, get up.

Come on!

- Come on!
- Get up!

Come on.

Run!

Stand down, soldier.

Let Tobias handle her..

Three pints of blood

for the person that
brings the girl to me.

Yeah!

No!

Let me remind you

that you were left for dead.

Because of me,
you're a survivor.

So the way I see it,

every breath you take is mine.

Go!

Go!

Let's just get on with it.

Music, please?

I am so tired of this.

Just think about all the
people you're saving, grandpa.

I'm no savior.

Just a cash cow
for those vultures

who run the blood underground.

You think they give
a damn about me?

Or any of those
miserable vampires

they got lining up
for their next fix?

Trust me, if we didn't
leave the money,

I'd be keeping my liquid
gold where it belongs.

I could maybe just go to
town for you to do the draw.

No, Maya, no.

You are not leaving the park.

The woods are full of scalpers

just waiting to get
their hands on us.

Be careful.

You must be Naomi.

Judging from the voice,
you must be Onslow.

Oh. I'm sorry. The warden.

Can you save my boy?

Put him on the gurney.

According to our sources,

it's only a matter of
time before things get

completely out of control.

A government spokesperson
told us that there's

nothing to worry about,
that everyone should relax,

and have an optimistic...

In other news, district
warden also spent

two days taking the
law into his own hands,

which he calls his
personal agenda.

Apart from what the
government has set aside...

What do you think?

More than likely the
disease is spreading.

Once it gets to the
eyes, it's in the brain.

Is there anything
you can do for him?

I...

I'm running on fumes as it is.

A couple of boxes of stolen
medical supplies only go so far.

Whatever you need,
just let me know.

I'll... I'll send my men
to go scavenge for it.

What he needs is clean
blood. AB positive.

What do you think
I've been giving him?

He's gone through all of his
rations and half of mine!

That's not enough anymore.

Full transfusion?

I'm afraid so.

Come in.

You're late, Charlie.

That it?

If you had brought
me double the blood,

I could bring you
double the gold.

Look, Charlie,
you gotta earn it.

If that granddaughter
of yours turns of age,

then we could talk about
more additional gold.

Anybody lay a hand on her

and I'll blow their brains out!

You hear me?

Charlie, Charlie,
Charlie, Charlie...

You'll never change, will you?

Except the fact government
had gone made us all puppets.

Feel them tugging on
your strings, Charlie?

So serious.

Here.

Take this and relax.

What is it?

A little concoction of my own.

Herbs and mushrooms
from the garden.

You'll be back, Charlie.

The underground blood
auction is going to be

the last chance any
of us get to survive.

Do you think I haven't
thought of that?

Do you know what the
government would do to me

if they found out that I am
buying off of the black market?

I'd lose my... my title,
my rations, everything!

You just might lose a
lot more if you don't.

Look, even if I
could afford to bid,

they're just selling
marked up mini infusions.

It's not enough to save him.

I need to cut out the
middle men, find the source.

What kind of, uh,
source would that be?

An unregistered AB
positive survivor.

Look, I want to help
your boy. I really do.

May I have your
attention, please...

He's got his whole
life ahead of him.

Reminds me of my granddaughter.

Please report them now

to the government health tip
line for a sizeable reward.

If you think of
anything, please,

please let me know.

Wait.

There's a woman.
Her name is Jade.

We used to work together before

the government
attempted the purge.

Unfortunately, she
works for them now.

The underground.

She gets the blood
ready for distribution.

Here's her address.

Tell her I sent you.

Consider it a humanitarian gift.

♪ Once upon a time I
dreamt how it would be ♪

♪ When far beyond the forest
green I'd hear your song to me ♪

Honey...

Elijah is dying.

Maybe today, maybe
tomorrow. Who knows?

And for the first time in my
life, I feel totally helpless.

And I'm angry.

I'm angry as hell.

I am angry at the world.

I'm angry at the system.

I'm angry at God.

And in a selfish
way, I am angry...

with you for leaving us so soon.

And I guess I'm angry at myself

for allowing the system
to use me as a pawn

for their authoritarian agenda.

And I will swear to you this:

I will fight for our son.

I will fight for our boy

with whatever it takes.

I love you, Lydia.

I'll see you soon.

I want you to know

that Abraham Lincoln
is very much alive.

I'm here to remind you, be free.

- Be happy.
- Be happy.

And if you can't be
yourself, be somebody else.

But be the best somebody
else that you can be.

- Boo!
- You suck, Charlie.

You got a problem, bud?

I don't remember inviting
you to my screening.

Who asked you
here? Was it Molly?

Molly?

Did he come with you?

Ah!

Frank? Bet it was
your idea, huh?

You hang out with all
the lowlifes around here.

Next time, hang out with
somebody that's got some class,

who knows good acting
from a hole in the ground!

And as for you...

Son of a bitch!

Demand is high,

supply is low,

so bids are higher than ever.

You know, getting top dollar
and all is great, boss,

But it can't be
good for business

when our customers are
dropping off like flies.

True, eventually,
we're going to need

some fresh inventory to
keep this operation afloat.

And a lot of it.

From what Jade tells me,

the old coot is getting
long in the tooth.

Perhaps his veins are drying up.

We're going to need to start
looking for fresh donors.

What do we have here?

How did he get in?

We need this place secure
or they'll all want in.

Handle it.

I'm gonna stop by Jade's to
pick up tonight's deposit.

Hey, man, you're trespassing
on private property.

I... I just need
my blood ration.

We don't do the rations.

Come on, man, give it to me.

This is your last chance.
Walk out or get carried out.

I'm not leaving here without it.

The blood's not ready yet.

Cutting it a little
close, aren't we?

Don't you think I
know that, Roberto?

He was late.

Again.

Then don't waste your
time talking to me.

Finish up your little ritual.

Do you worship God or the devil?

Nature is my religion.

Well, I suppose we all
gotta worship something.

Drop it off as soon
as you're finished.

Good evening, Jade.

Let's make this somewhat
easy on all of us.

I will ask you a question,

and you will tell me exactly
what it is I need to hear.

Who is the source, and
where do I find him?

Charlie.

His name is Charlie.

- That's all I know, I swear.
- Was he here recently?

Yes.

Please, will you let me go now?

I told you everything.

I suppose the
auctioneer knows him.

Yes, I'm sure they do.

Go see them. There's
an auction tonight.

- It's at the...
- We know the location.

Do you have any blood inside?

Uncut.

Take it.

Take it all. Just go.

I'm curious.

Do you use what you sell, Jade?

Are you...

Double dipping?

Just what I need to survive.

Finish her off.

Jade seemed overly concerned.

Does it buy him some time?

A few days.

Maybe more.

I told you, don't
leave the park.

Do not leave the park!

Why didn't you listen to me?

Look at yourself, man!

Take my blood. Get
me out of here.

I'm tired, Grandpa, I'm tired!

Feel it tugging on
your strings, Charlie?

Oh, no, no, no, no.

This is not the way it goes.

No, no. Somebody, stop this.

He doesn't die.

Stop this. Somebody stop this!

For God's sake!

I've been saying for
you to stop this!

Don't take her
blood. Take my blood.

We thank you for your patience.

Unfortunately, we were expecting
a few extra vials to arrive,

but there seems to be
a distribution issue.

And it appears we've come
up short for tonight.

As they say, the
show must go on.

Isn't that right, warden?

I trust you're not
here to arrest us, sir.

We run a free enterprise system,

meaning no harm to anyone.

Only a little hope,
if you're lucky.

I'm here for personal reasons.

Well, good luck to you, sir.

Let the bidding begin.

Our first bag on the block.

About the size of two
government rations.

Good for one person to
get an extra health boost.

Do I hear two bags of gold?

- Two bags.
- Very good.

Who will go to three bags?

- Three bags.
- Bags. Thank you.

Who will go to four?

- Four bags.
- Four bags.

Thank you very much. Who
will give me five bags?

- Five bags.
- Thank you, sir.

How much will this get me?

That's Jade's lockbox.

How did you get it?

Jade has donated
to a good cause.

Don't worry.

You get to keep the gold.

If you tell me what
I want to know.

Where...

is...

the source?

If I knew that, do you think
I'd be auctioning vials?

I'd be selling pints.

I'll just find
someone who does know.

No, no, hang on.

Supposedly, he does a
drop-off twice a week.

And Jade does her magic.

And two pints make four.
Four pints make eight.

I suppose it's the
American system

of checks and balances.

You know I can shut this
whole place down if I want to.

Can't have any illegal activity

in my district.

Then there'd be a trial.

My trial.

A warden's day in court...

if you get my drift.

Whatever it takes,
you bring him to me.

Understood?

♪ I'm so glad you loved me ♪

♪ 'Cause now I get to
spend some more time ♪

♪ With my mannequin friends ♪

♪ I love my mannequin friends ♪

♪ I love my mannequin friends ♪

♪ I love my mannequin friends ♪

So, did you go to
class or anything?

No, I'm mostly self taught.

You can learn to be good at
anything if you gotta be, kid.

Uh, I guess I'm
still looking, then.

It will come.

One day, you'll just wake up,
and realize what you're good at.

That, in turn, will
often be your purpose.

Just... Yeah, okay.

I guess my purpose is
pissing people off.

You're not that bad.

Okay.

Yeah, uh, tell that to Mom.

It's not easy
being a single mom.

It's not that hard being
a good... a good kid.

Or person, even.

I guess I just
missed the lesson.

I... I don't know.

I mean, all she got
was this tomboy.

Hand me that wrench, please.

Are you kidding me? It's...

Yeah, it's right there.

I... I know it's right there.

Yeah, that's it.

Thanks.

Um...

you know...

as much as I...

don't want to...

um...

um...

okay.

Hmm!

You, um...

You... you, I guess,
still are kinda, um...

kinda like the dad that
I never got to have.

We had some fun, didn't we?

Good times.

When you weren't grounded
for getting into mischief.

Fights, you mean.

Those boys in your neighborhood

didn't get anything
they didn't deserve.

I... I didn't really
care, anyways.

I mean, being grounded
was hardly torture.

It was just watching a
bunch of your old movies.

- Really?
- Yeah.

Truth be told, Maya, my
films were all flops.

I eventually became a street
performer just to survive.

Then I came here.

"Presenting Charles Flint,
and his mannequin friends."

You put on a good show, Charlie.

Welcome, ladies and gentlemen...

Don't go too far, Charlie.

To the most messed-up
show on earth,

the human race.

Did you take your
medicine, Charlie?

Featuring, the dead.

A moment of silence
for the dead.

What good is my sanity,

when I cannot do my art?

That's long enough.

You're gonna be such a big star.

And also starring, the living.

Me.

And my beautiful
granddaughter, Maya.

Parade around

for all your government
and corporate ringmasters

pulling your strings.

That's what you do,
isn't it, Charlie?

Yes.

You're freaks. Mm-hmm!

I'm sick of it!

Do you hear me?

Be good all the time.

We can't let out our
evil side, can we?

I'm not gonna be good
old Charles anymore.

No.

I'm gonna be something else.

My dear audience.

Who I have given
my heart's blood,

who has drained me dry,

drip by drip, drop by drop,

over the years.

Ah, yes.

I'm gonna be the Ringmaster!

And I'm gonna be in control.

How do you like that? Yes!

Let's dance.

Let's play... for
the bloodletting.

Yes, it is. Ha, ha!

General, have you seen
any vampires about?

Grandpa!

Just stop!

Huh?

No!

Help me!

I was just going...

- Oh God, what's...
- You're safe now.

What are you doing?

What am I doing?

You just tried to kill me.

That was just an act.

An act? Well, it felt
pretty damn real to me.

You didn't like my performance?

No, I didn't like
your performance.

I thought you'd gone crazy!

Maya!

No, you can't go "Maya-ing" me.

I don't know if
you went into town,

and sucked in some
of that madness.

I'm fine, really.

Our type can't get sick.

You know that.

Do I, though? Do I
really know that?

You know I would never
do anything to hurt you.

Are you sure we should really
be going back out there?

What choice have we got?

The generator
won't power itself.

Keep that shotgun close by.

Jade?

Charlie.

Charlie.

No!

No, no, no!

No...

That's far enough, Charlie.

You seem to be the
man in the hour.

It's Charlie, isn't it?

You two must be the
bastards who killed Jade.

That's none of your concern.

Trouble is, the market
is running a little bare,

and we're seeking the source.

You understand our dilemma,
don't you, Charlie?

Another step...

I'll blow your kneecap off.

No reason to get excited.

Not when I got the
real stuff here.

Yeah, check it out.

One pint of uncut, clean blood.

Just for you!

Grandpa! Go!

Hmm.

It doesn't look so bad.

So what's the plan now?

Stay inside the park, I guess.

There's nothing
for us out there.

So that's... that's your plan?

To just stay in this
rat's nest, and what?

Wait for us to just die here?

N-no. Yeah, no, I...

I can't... I can't do that.

You got your purpose, and
I just gotta find mine.

I gotta... I gotta find my life.

They sucked the
blood out of Jade.

Do you want that
to happen to us?

Do ya?

I don't wanna scare
you, but, it's over.

The world as we used
to know it, it's gone.

Poisoned, along with
everything else.

So you want me to just,
what, give up, like you?

I can't do that.

Look, I don't want
to crush your dreams,

but you gotta see the reality
that I'm seeing, okay?

Yeah, you're calling
this reality?

We're living in a bubble of
the past, buster, all right?

We're watching old movies
over, and over again.

And not to mention
the... the mannequins.

You've got me going
crazy. The mannequins?

We have creepy...
I just... I just...

I just... I don't understand.

I don't understand your madness.

And then... And then
you have the gall...

You have the damn gall
to go treating this place

you're so hell-bent
on calling our home,

you treat it as a
shooting gallery!

I apologized!

That doesn't take it back!

It doesn't. Sorry,
sorry, sorry.

It doesn't stop it.

It doesn't just erase it all.

It's not like magic.

This isn't like a fantasy realm.

And then, you know what?
We can't forget now.

We can't forget,
Gramps, that you dressed

like a freaky ringmaster,
for God's sake.

Enough, okay? Enough of that.

We can't just bury
our heads in the sand

and expect the rest of
the world to disappear.

But we can disappear and
never let them get to us.

Trust me, Maya.

Trust you?

No.

This. This isn't life.

Maya.

Maya!

How long's he got?

What if I told you where
to find the source?

Jade told you?

No.

His name is Charlie.

You know him?

And you kept this from me?

My son is dying and
all along, you knew?

Look, come off your high horse.

I've no more respect for
you than any other survivor.

Who is he?

My husband.

Your husband?

All this time, you knew?

Naomi.

For my son...

For his future, please.

Tell me where I can find him.

On one condition.

You don't hurt him.

Hurt him?

He's my last hope.

The thing with Charlie
is he needs help.

What kind of help?

He's almost 80,
and he's not well,

and he really needs to
be in an institution,

not out there in the
wilderness, indulging in his...

in his foolish fantasies.

Okay, I am totally confused.

He was doing one
of his performances

over in the old
amusement park...

and it got out of hand.

People were scared.

I was scared.

The judge ordered

a psychiatric evaluation
after he got arrested,

and eventually they let him go.

Oh, to be placed under my care.

One day I woke...

and he was missing.

I knew.

He went to the one place
where he could find hope.

His home away from home.

The stage.

The old theme park
just outside of town.

He's been there ever since.

What do you mean,
he's been there?

It's been shut down for years.

To the public, yes...

but not to Charlie.

In his mind, it's still open.

In his mind, he's
still performing.

We need to bring him back
before the scalpers find him.

Then I'll send my
men to get him.

Charlie is not in control
of his own person.

He is a danger to himself
and to everyone around him.

Then go with them.

He doesn't listen
to me. He never has.

Maybe seeing a familiar
face will help.

Please.

Is there any relative
that he would listen to?

Our granddaughter...

Maya.

Tomorrow and tomorrow...

creeps in this petty
pace from day to day,

and all our yesterdays

have lighted fools the way

to dusty death.

Out, out, brief candle.

Life's but a walking shadow,

a poor player that struts

and frets his hour
upon the stage

and then is heard no more.

It is a tale...

told by an idiot...

full of sound and fury...

signifying nothing.

Well, I see we have
some uninvited guests

out there in the dark.

We do ask that once
inside the park,

that you obey all rules.

For your own safety, of course.

Now, the activities can begin

if you will direct your
attention to that young man

behind you.

♪ She'll be coming 'round
the mountain when she comes ♪

- Charlie?
- ♪ She'll be comin' ♪

Charlie!

Naomi.

What the hell are you
doing in my world?

Oh, my God, Charlie. We
gotta get you out of here.

Where are we going to go, Naomi?

It's not safe out there anymore.

Let me take you back to town.

- We'll get you some help.
- Help?

Is that what those men with
guns are trying to do? Help me?

Charlie, when did you decide
to give up on reality?

Reality?

Is the population
purge not real?

Or will you only care
when they come for you?

No, when did you decide
to give up on me?

You and I were a
great team, Charlie.

Yeah, we were.

But now you're on the
Warden's team, I see.

He has a son who's dying.

We're all dying, Naomi.

Now, if you will excuse me,

I have some visitors
to entertain.

Charlie. Charlie!

Freaky!

♪ Mannequin friends ♪

♪ I love my mannequin friends ♪

♪ They are the only ones
with whom I pretend ♪

♪ I'm so glad you... ♪

You have got to stop this.

You have lost all
sense of what is real.

This isn't one of your movies.

This is reality.

These men are evil.

They're trying to kill me.

And you led them to me!

Listen to me. Listen
to me, Charlie.

I thought they were
here to help you.

I was wrong.

They went rogue.

But the warden, he promised
me that he wouldn't harm you.

First rule of thumb, Naomi.

We don't put trust in the
government, only ourselves.

You remember that time we walked
across the Brooklyn Bridge?

We found that little
joint, had a band playing?

Yeah, I remember.

What was the name of that place?

Sam's?

Something like that.

Yeah, Sam's Hideaway.

Yeah.

Yeah, Sam's.

I think we danced
all night long.

I think I wore a hole
in my shoe that night.

♪ You've been so good to me ♪

May I have this dance, my lady?

I gave you one...

task.

Bring me...

the blood...

of a crazy old man.

And you failed!

Onslow.

Sir, please.

Please, you say?

What is that, begging I hear?

I also begged!

I beg God to save my son!

And yet he died
from their purge.

So now...

a true purge is coming.

Mine!

If he dies, you die!

We all die!

Killing Charlie will
not bring Elijah back.

No.

But it will put an
end to this charade.

Naomi!

Say your prayers, old man.

I did.

And they've been answered.

That's my girl.

May I have your
attention, please?

If a member of your
family is being purged,

we ask that you remain in

our bereavement
room until called.

The governmental
purge is painless.

And the entire process...

And it's my birthday.

Happy birthday.

Time to go, Charlie.

May I have your
attention, please?

If a member of your
family is being purged,

we ask that you remain

in our bereavement
room until called.

The governmental
purge is painless,

and the entire process will
only last a few minutes.

If you have any questions,

please ask your local
district warden.

Good afternoon, Charlie.

Let me be the first to thank
you for your patriotism

and your role as an outstanding
citizen to the system.

Charlie, let me explain
what's going to happen

during your purge experience.

We're going to give you
a drug that will slowly

decrease your heartrate
until it eventually stops.

You will feel no pain.

It's simply like falling asleep.

Time until death will be
approximately 15 to 20 minutes.

We hope you have
chosen someone special

to be with you at
your departure.

If you have loved ones waiting
in our bereavement room,

you can request
visitation at this time.

Damn you and your government!

Comply with all laws
governed by this democracy

into the ones that have been
set forth for the purging

of all citizens who have
made it to 80 years of age.

To each and everyone
who passes, you...

And your government burn in
hell for what you're doing.

You're to exterminate us!

Who made you God?

Of the expense of keeping
its elderly citizens alive.

Let the procedure begin.

Can you get these straps off me?

Send my friend in.

Are you afraid?

Not anymore.

Read this with me.

- What's this?
- Just the last scene.

Please?

Charlie, we don't
have much time.

Please. Please.

Oh, my God, Charlie.

Oh, my God, Charlie!

Charlie, wake up.

Please, wake up.

You got shot.

You gotta help me, honey.

I have to get
ready for the show.

I never wanted this to happen.

Please, just...

Just open your eyes, just...

This can't be the
end. It can't be.

I'm so sorry.

Sorry that I drove you away
when I needed you most.

I'm sorry I wasn't
there for you...

when you needed me most.

And most of all, I'm
sorry I'm leaving you now.

Oh, Charlie.

I don't know what the
future holds for you

or everybody else...

but don't give up.

Never give up hope.

I'm not giving up
on you, Charlie.

Just...

You need to understand,

I created this
character of Charlie

because the world didn't
feel safe or normal anymore.

And I surrounded
myself with people...

who would make my life complete.

- Oh...
- That's it.

Keep talking. Stay
with me, Charlie.

Our granddaughter, Maya,

she was terrified of the
craziness at the park.

And yet I tried to protect
her from the real horrors,

the horrors of reality
that are so much worse.

Yet, she showed me.

When she finally faced
the outside world,

she showed me she's

way tougher and braver than
ever I could have imagined.

Onslow...

the warden.

Every story needs its nemesis.

And he became mine.

My judge. My executioner.

Naomi...

you're the love of my life.

My leading lady,

here at the end,
for my big goodbye.

Don't say that, Charlie.

This isn't goodbye.

Not yet.

My blood might not be
perfect like yours,

but it'll buy us some
more time together.

The record.

Would you mind...
playing the record?

Yeah. Hold on.

Don't cry, my sweetheart.

Don't cry.

This isn't real.

The only thing that's real...

is love.
