All language subtitles for Woods Are Wet (1973)

She was accused of
murdering her mistress.

Following the murder,
Sachiko went on the run
for three days.

After a while,
she began to feel better.

She believed that if she could
get to town, she would be safe.

Then she would be able
to forget about the terrible murder.

- Stop the car.
- Yes.

Young lady, you seem to be
exhausted from walking, right?

Yes.

You look very tired.

I'm all right.

I wonder where you are going.

Perhaps I could give you a lift.

lt's too much trouble...

Besides, l wouldn't
feel comfortable riding with you.

I know it's none of my business,

but l'm worried about you.

You seem to be in trouble.

No, l've been walking for three days.

You've had a troubled life, haven't you?

You don't have to hide anything.

Tell me if I'm wrong.

Don't be angry at me.

You and I have something in common.
We both have a tragic fate.

That's why...
l feel a certain oneness with you.

I run that hotel
over there in the mountains.

Once a week I have a chance
to leave for shopping in town.

lt's only then
l can become myself and feel free.

The rest of the week,

l live submissively
with my husband, with no way out.

Living like a
rare fish in a glass aquarium.

That's the extent of my life.

WOODS ARE WET: WOMAN'S HELL

Thank you very much for the ride.

It's nothing.

When l see your face,
I can't believe we're not related.

Excuse me.

lf you don't mind,
you're welcome to stay with us...

for a day or two.

Because of the Depression,
there's no electricity available here.

My life would be happier
if you would stay here a while.

You can help me.

l'd feel stronger.

lndeed, it's a bad society out there.

When l was 10, l lost my parents.

Before that, my life was happy.

Since then,
horrible things keep happening to me.

But you haven't
done anything wrong. I can tell.

You look innocent and pure.

As long as people live honest lives,

eventually,
good things will happen to them.

Here we are.

We rarely have guests,
being so deep in the woods.

My misfortune...

It isn't as complicated as yours.

But as a woman,
mine might be more devastating.

Since my marriage at 19,
l've been hideously lonely.

My husband is incredibly cruel.

I'm forced to live
with the most brutal man imaginable.

Please, have a seat.

Young lady, l'm the
most unhappy woman in the world.

lf someone like you would stay with me...

To share womanly ideas,
not as a servant, but as a friend,

I would be very happy.

Pretty young lady,
if you can relate to my sadness,

to my unfortunate destiny,

l would give you half my legacy.

Also, my two maids
would serve you like they serve me.

I will accept your
offer to be your companion.

Wife, you are the best
for bringing such a pretty girl here.

You are wonderful.
Look at her face, so innocent and pure.

She will be very good for our business.

l want to try her right away.

By the way, Wife,
l have a surprise for you too.

The girl's name is
Sachiko Murai, 19 years old.

Master, how did you know about me?

You brought an amazing girl to our house.

Can you imagine such a tender face has...

What are you talking about?
This sounds very intriguing.

She's wanted for murdering her mistress.

ls that true?

This angelic girl
could do something like that?

Mistress, listen to my story.

I've been falsely accused of murder.

Master, believe me.

I was working for a lady,
at her mansion...

She helped me with some troubles in my life.

Please believe me.

How could l kill someone like her?

I was... framed by her son.

How dramatic!

You are quite an actress.

So you want me
to believe the son is the murderer?

That's right. lt's horrible.

I'm not making this up.

I just received notice
of the murder this morning.

Now I'm getting
excited over this situation.

I can't wait to
punish this beautiful liar.

I can't believe this has happened.

This little girl fooled me!
Isn't it amazing?

Mistress, please believe me.

I am innocent. l was framed.

Don't misunderstand.

We aren't going to give you to the police.

Not if you co-operate with us.

The master and l...

might believe your story, afterwards.

Yes, what should l...?

You certainly don't look like someone...

who would commit a cold-blooded murder.

Maybe l should assume your innocence.

Yes.

Give her a bath.

- And give her a dress from my closet.
- Yes.

This way.

Guests have arrived.

Oh? What great timing!

Tell us more.

Seems to be a couple of
wealthy hunters looking for lodging.

You will be useful right away.

What should I do?

We run a hotel here,
but not to make money.

We're already rich.
We have enough money.

Excuse me.

Our purpose is something else.

This resort is for our amusement.

We enjoy fleecing our guests.
But don't take me wrong...

l'm not asking you to rob anybody.

We're not asking you to
join in our wrongful operation.

l heard your sad story,
and I know you are very honest.

lt would be impossible for you
to join with us. I understand that.

So l'd rather ask
for you to help the guests.

You can tell them this is
a nest of thieves ready to rob them.

Warning them would be
a suitable job for a good girl, right?

Such a task would ease your conscience,
and it doesn't go against your ethics.

Don't you dare think
about running away from here.

If you try that,
l will call the police immediately.

The phone.

You would be arrested.

By the way, why would the
police believe the words of a fugitive?

lf you told them about this hotel,
they wouldn't listen to you.

I should also tell you...

You can tell the guests anything about us.

We won't hurt you.

You can trust me about this.

There seems to be no other choice for you.

Try your best to rescue these guests.

Otherwise we might kill them,
or who knows what else...

If you successfully rescue them,
you may also leave.

We promise we won't report to the police.

This is a perfect task
for such an honest, compassionate girl.

Go now.

What else could you ask for?

You can help the guests in crisis,
plus you can obtain your freedom.

Of course, if you don't
accept this offer to save the guests,

you will feel
responsible for their murders.

Your tender mind would
suffer pangs of regret, eh?

Wife, we must assume she agrees,
so now we're going to have fun with her.

l'm excited as well!
l love it when we get visitors!

Mistress, this is a terrible situation.

You planned this since you picked me up.

l was willing
to do anything to capture you.

Don't be depressed.
You'll get used to the games.

I'm also certain that in a
couple of months, you won't want to leave.

l think you are truly pretty.

l'm mesmerized whenever I see your face.

We should be very good together.

Are you also involved in
your husband's brutal business?

There's nothing wrong with
a husband and wife sharing hobbies.

We always enjoy doing whatever we want.

That's why we're so good for each other.

I'll never get used to doing bad things.

l can't... control myself
from loving you any longer.

Mistress, this isn't
the behavior of someone like you.

Stop treating me like nobility.

What we do here is very simple.

We are merely
honest to our desires and lust.

Well, it's time for your performance.
Get undressed.

It's showtime!

They are eating now.

Go and amuse them.
Tell them of the danger they're in.

I don't want to do this!

What? Go on!

Go and tell them about the
thieves and murderers in their midst.

Go to Room #11.

Come in.

Oh? This girl is quite attractive.
The master was right.

How lovely she is.

Don't just stand there. Join us.

l'm only half-dressed,
but this isn't by my choice.

That's a very entertaining scene.

Don't be shy.
Come over here and serve us some tea.

l am here to tell you
about the danger at hand.

That's all right.
We're finishing our dinner. Just relax.

Some tea.

But if you don't hurry,
something horrible will happen.

What are you saying?

You look so virginal.

Why are you so anxious to rush us?

Or could it be that
you're actually a nymphomaniac?

Wet and ready, eh?

What are you doing?

Because of your insistence,
my tool is ready for action!

Wait, I'm not that kind of woman!
You misunderstood what l said!

No, don't!

What are you doing?

It's very important...

She's a real diamond in the rough.

We haven't seen
action like this in a long time.

Wife, you out-did yourself this time.

Thank you, my husband.

She's terrific.

Please, listen to me.

l must tell you:
your lives are in danger.

You're so dramatic!

So go ahead, tell us your story.

Let me go,
and l will tell you everything.

No way, just talk!

You're going to be killed.

Anything can happen in these bad times.

The master and
his wife aren't normal people.

They're planning to rob and kill you.

What? Tell me more.

They will take everything you have.

Do you think they will
let you live after such a robbery?

What? Are you lying to us?

Why would l lie about this?

Do you have anything
to protect yourself with?

We have hunting guns.

lf you want to run away,
I can show you the way out.

I don't want to stay here either.

I'll go with you two.

I'll be back after l get dressed.

I need to check the premises.

I don't know
how they're planning to do it.

Please be careful.

Bitch! This is part of the trick!

Why didn't you let the other man fuck you?

Didn't l tell you that's
my favorite part of the game?

But this wasn't so bad.

I think you'll be a good teammate.

Now, wait here.
l'll show you some real entertainment.

Ah! How about this song?

Let's have a party! Party!

No time to take a breath!
One thing after another!

Let's have a party! Party!

Like a donkey fucking a hippopotamus!
Time for a party!

They're like animals in a trap.

What's going on here?

l will show you
my expertise in vice. Come.

Why didn't you heed the warning?

You two are stupid.

What happened to your weapons? Eh?

You left your guns up there.
What kind of hunters are you?

But l kinda like the way you look at me.

I'll give you fellas
one more chance to get out.

Don't be so scared and listen to me.

There are two ladies here.

One is my wife.
She's still beautiful.

And the other one...
is this lovely girl you already enjoyed.

If you two can fuck
these two ladies before my very eyes,

I would admire your
stamina and grant your freedom.

However, if your body
betrays you and you can't perform,

then sorry, you will not survive.

Young lady,
do you remember what l told you?

lf you refuse him,
you destroy his chance for survival.

My guest, now she's ready.

Fuck her and live.

Don't stop!
If you stop l'll kill you!

Keep it up.

Don't stop. Are you ready to die?

Why did you stop?

I told you not to stop.
l told you I will kill you!

This is the ultimate pleasure.
This is the sacred pleasure.

You, what are you doing?

Can you move this guy?

His penis doesn't
know that his body is dead.

Maybe he'll stay like that.

No, this is horrible. I want out!

l love violence.

When l see my victim covered in blood,
I can't control my excitement!

Girls! Lay on the dead bodies.

I'll give everyone a good fuck!

Why don't these ladies run away?

We raised the girls
since they were very small.

They're used to the way we live.

It's normal for them.

These girls are
furnished with shelter and good food.

Why would they want
to live in the outside world?

Those unhappy ladies,
incapable of having human feelings.

l don't think so.

There are so many people without
feelings who are struggling in poverty.

My life has
been full of terrible circumstances.

But l have never
experienced such savage brutality.

You two are worse than the devil.

How can you
continue this horrible behavior?

Why aren't you afraid of
God or your own conscience?

Taking human life so easily...

Don't worry. Rigor mortis is setting in.

Throughout history, there are no examples
of the strong succumbing to the weak.

Can you point to anybody
who hasn't victimized weaker people?

You realize how wonderful
it is to have control over others...

once you reach a position of power.

The pleasure of control...

You can't understand it
unless you believe these things.

Happiness is not absolute.

lt's based on comparing your
life with that of a pathetic weakling.

That's the only way
to understand true happiness.

Happiness isn't in the so-called heaven.

l'm in heaven now.

Happiness is a relative concept.

I disagree! l can't be happy
unless everybody else is happy.

ln that case,
you must be very happy now.

Because my husband and I are very happy.

No, you misunderstand.

The happiness must come
from a state of correctness.

Absolute correctness
doesn't exist in this world.

What you accept as ethical
is contrived by those in authority,

in order for them to control people.

ln the natural world,
nobody blames a lion for eating a zebra.

A human should be able to
be honest to his desires and instincts,

by whatever methods
he chooses to satisfy himself.

The measure of human lust
is determined by human desire.

When deciding what's necessary,
you listen to your body's desire.

Your body should be
the judge of what is ultimately right.

lf you are punished
as a result of your behavior,

you may also turn around and
do the same thing to your punisher.

lt's all stacked against the common man.
lt's a plot to keep people in line.

To keep them obedient and correct,
for a stupid society ruled by authority.

Why should my behavior
fit into their rules and regulations?

Why must l obey the law imposed by
authorities when l don't agree with them?

When my appetite is satisfied,
my sexual hunger returns.

l agree with you.
My flame of lust was burning.

But while I was eating,
food seemed so much more important.

Now the little flame
of sex has ignited again.

l wish those dead men would return
so l could enjoy them one more time.

Then we should go back to
our room and wait for their ghosts.

Come on! Let's go!

Let's have a party!
No time to wait, party!...

There is no guarantee
that you won't be the next victim.

There's no reason for us not to kill you.

Nobody, including me,
knows what my lust wants.

l'd rather die than live in this hell!

Those words are not very original.

That's a routine line. But next,
the victim is begging me for life.

But unfortunately,
when they start begging, it's too late.

But, as long as you are useful to me...

As long as you do your job
and keep exciting me, like tonight,

l will let you live.

[gibberish]

You are part of our team.

No, I'm not!

You helped us kill those men.

Help. Help. You helped...

Ah, what a beautiful day.

- Watch your step.
- Yes.

We'll be there soon.
I feel so good.

You are very beautiful.
Becoming more beautiful.

Good morning, people of Japan!

I hope you stay here with us forever.

If you stay with us,
l won't be bad to you again. l promise.

You'll get used to living happily with us.

No, l won't.
