Original subtitles

I had the perfect life until I was in a coma for six years,

and then I woke up and found my fianc�e

married to another man.

My son doesn't know who I am.

Everything has changed...

including me.

One touch, and I can see things...

things that happened, things that will happen.

You should see what I see.

(po p so ng playlng)

All right, yeah.

50-mile mark. Time for my music.

Man, we've been listening to The Outcasts

all the way down to Boston.

Time for you to suffer on the way back?

Okay, first of all, it is "Outkast," all right?

No "the", no plural...

No more, please. If you hate it so much,

just pull out one of my other CDs.

Wow.

(laughlng)

"Highway to Hell"?

Ancient history.

I'm trying to bring you up to speed on the music of today.

That is a classic, okay?

Bruce, you didn't know me before the accident.

I was never up to speed. It was part of my charm.

Okay, yeah, but you're so far behind now,

it's like you're going in reverse.

You've got to get with the new, with the now.

The new, the now, huh?

Okay, well...

may I present the latest technology,

utilized by top doctors at the most cutting-edge labs.

This is not your dad's CAT scan.

All right, all right, enough.

They still don't know what's wrong with me.

That's because there is nothing wrong.

Besides my taste in music.

Yeah, besides your taste in music.

All right, I'm hungry. You hungry?

Yeah, I'm hungry.

Let's grab something to eat up here.

Hey, how're you doing?

I'll have a cup of chowder

and a half turkey sandwich.

I'll have a cheeseburger and a glass of water, please.

Glass of water for me, too, please.

Thank you.

Burn in hell!

(croWd yelllng)

No!

Excuse me, ma'am?

Can we have that order to go, please?

(the me musl c playlng)

Oooh

Fall in love, fall in love, fall in love

Fall in love...

Feel no shame for what you are

Feel no shame for what you are

Feel no shame for what you are...

Fall in love, fall in love

Fall in love.

- What is it? - I'll tell you in a few miles.

Oh, no, no. Excuse me?

Is this a red zone?

Ma'am, we were just leaving.

You fellas have any identification?

Yeah.

Is there a problem, Officer?

Deputy Simmons.

I guess you guys haven't heard.

We had a double homicide last night.

Mother and her eight-year-old daughter. Out in the woods.

Oh, man.

Second daughter is still missing. 13 years old.

This town has been walking the woods all night.

We're hoping to still find her alive.

Well, if she is... John, maybe you could...

Could what?

My friend is...

He's helped the police up in Maine every now and then.

- Helped how? - I guess you'd call me a psychic.

A psychic?

Like, with supernatural powers?

I can sense things sometimes, Deputy.

Look, we...

we could use any help we could get,

psychic or otherwise.

Why don't you guys come on in and we could talk about it?

Follow me.

Bruce: You should talk with the sheriff

of Penobscot County, Walt Bannerman.

He can tell you all about John.

He helped catch a serial killer.

Serial killer? With your psychic powers?

No kidding?

I'm going to bring in the evidence in this case.

Who knows, you might pick up some psychic vibrations,

- or whatever you call it. - Okay. Sure.

You want to tell me what's going on?

Nothing.

You're right.

I should help if I can.

People here are scared out of their skins.

The last thing they need to hear

is we're soliciting a psychic

to help in our investigation.

Jim, I don't believe he's got mental powers.

- What? - Four women aged 18 to 31.

Serial killer up in Maine.

This Smith fellow led the sheriff straight

to the suspect,

a deputy named Dodd. But Dodd never confessed.

He killed himself before they could question him.

Where are you going with this?

What are the chances this psychic

is in Hobbs Landing the day after

Mary Reed and her daughter are killed?

What if he led the Bangor Sheriff

to arrest someone else to cover up his own tracks,

then decides he's not finished,

shows up here to help us out?

Nancy...

I want you to stop.

I want you to get some rest, okay?

We have a crime scene with ritual Satanic elements.

Here's a guy who claims to have supernatural powers,

and he's been jumpy since the first moment he met me.

We'd be foolish not to hear what he's going to say.

Okay.

Okay.

Three women were in the woods,

apparently coming home late from an all-day hike.

The mother, Mary Reed,

the daughters, Cathy and little Suzy.

Now, we found Mary and Suzy, but Cathy is still missing.

This is her shoe.

She runs a lot.

JV girls track.

Running through the trees.

She's terrified.

I can't see where she is.

(Wo lves hoWllng)

Mommy!

Baphomet! Baphomet!

Come again?

This was used to cut down branches...

that formed the shape of a pentagram...

before the killings.

This was the murder weapon...

but in only one of the murders.

(recltlng archal c lang uag e)

(breathlng heavlly)

Suzy.

This knife killed Suzy.

Oh, dear God.

- Oh my God. - Enough.

John, it's okay.

It's okay. That's enough.

The killer?

All I can tell you...

is that this was a sacrifice.

A ritual sacrifice.

- You think he did it? - He knows things,

things we haven't released yet, things that I didn't even know.

What about his friend?

I need time.

Time to tie them to some real evidence.

You find me something I can hold Smith on.

A parking ticket, a broken taillight, anything.

If you can do that,

then I can impound the Cruiser,

and the other one won't go anywhere.

I'll come up with something.

Even if it won't stick, it might buy you a couple days.

Well, find it quick, 'cause he's going

- to get suspicious soon. - Of course he is.

He's psychic.

This was found at the murder scene?

It must have been Susan's.

Where was their father when all of this...

- At a church meeting. - Without his family?

They were going through a divorce.

A divorce?

And you're sure that he was at that church?

With over a hundred witnesses.

What's wrong, man?

We really have to be on our way.

Mr. Smith, we're not done here.

- Mr. Lewis? - I'm sorry.

I've told you everything I can.

If you need to get in touch with me, that's fine.

I'm afraid I can't let you leave Hobbs Landing, Mr. Smith.

Nancy, could you place Mr. Smith under arrest, please?

For what?

Violation of local ordinance 65...

the practice of witchcraft.

(pho ne rlnglng)

Penobscot County Sheriff's Office.

Roscoe, it's John Smith. Is Walt there?

Boss man's camping with the wife and kid.

- I thought you knew that. - I did. I just...

Did they take their cell phones with them?

Yeah, but they don't work in the mountains.

He calls in every night.

By the way, I got a call from some place

in Massachusetts asking about you. Where is it?

- I've got it some place. - Hobbs Landing?

Yeah, that's it. You in some kind of trouble?

I've been charged with witchcraft.

(laughlng)

They finally caught you, did they?

Listen, I'm a suspect in a double homicide.

I need Walt to vouch for me.

I'll try to track him down, but I don't know where...

Roscoe, I don't have a lot of time.

One phone call.

Let's go.

Call Purdy.

Call him from out of town.

John, there is no way I'm leaving you here.

Call him. I mean it. Out of town.

This...

this is so...

wrong!

We were in Boston all weekend.

We were seeing the doctor about Johnny's brain,

which is fine...

his brain, I mean...

but we just drove into town today.

Yeah, well, I'll need the keys to your Cruiser.

We're impounding it during the investigation.

You're making a big mistake.

You'll be making a bigger one if you try to leave.

Witchcraft?

It's the best they could do for now.

Are they serious? They really think he's a witch?

Guys are called warlocks, aren't they?

Doug Martin says he can prove it in a court of law.

Hey, look, there's the other one.

What's with that guy's hair, anyway?

- They're called dreadlocks. - Dreadlocks, warlocks.

Fellow travelers if you ask me.

The only thing that matters is that we find

Tom Reed's little girl.

Yes, Bruce. Thank you.

Tell Johnny to stay put and not to worry.

I will be there in an hour. This will all be cleared up.

Bye. See you soon.

Johnny, Johnny, Johnny.

Helen, get the Governor of Massachusetts on the line,

will you? And call Gerald.

Have him get the helicopter ready. Raoul, helipad, please.

And I'll hold. Who should we retain?

Jimmy Turner?

I wouldn't send any of our lawyers.

I wouldn't get near this thing.

Helping to clear an innocent man

of murder charges is hardly controversial.

No, but "witchcraft,"

that's a word spin doctors dreams about.

Now, I don't think we can take risks

with your reputation, particularly in light

of our new political alliances.

The campaigns are just around the corner.

The boy is in trouble. He asked for my help.

Ask him to hold, please.

I can't just turn my back on him.

I'm only suggesting we keep a close eye on this for a while.

See how things plays out.

Why don't we send our friend Dana Bright down there?

Put him on.

Angus!

Just called to see if we're still on for Saturday.

Well, we'll just increase your handicap, then.

So, the court informed me you don't have an attorney,

They need to take you before the judge to set bail.

What are the bail parameters for witchcraft here?

You'll want someone of your own choosing to represent you.

I don't have time for a change of counsel, Mr. Barnes.

I'm sorry to tell you, but I don't think

this is going to be resolved too quickly.

Let me ask you a few things.

Are you a witch, Mr. Smith?

No.

I didn't kill anyone, in case you were wondering.

Do you have an alibi?

We checked out of our hotel in Boston yesterday.

We've been driving along the coast since then.

You understand this witchcraft charge

is just a tactic to hold you while they search for evidence.

Mr. Barnes, in a very short time...

some of your neighbors are going to burn me at the stake.

I beg your pardon?

I'm not a witch, Mr. Barnes,

but I know what's going to happen to me here.

Guess what.

Right now, you are my only hope to prevent it.

Look, Mr. Smith, this is not a dumb fish town.

The people here are warm, intelligent human beings.

Right now, yes, they're a little more scared

than I've seen them before, but we aren't the kind of people

who would ever, ever do such a thing.

Tom, it's okay. We'll get to the bottom of this now.

Where's his daughter Cathy?

Where is she?

(chatterlng ang rlly)

(g avel rapplng)

This is a preliminary hearing

of the Commonwealth versus John Smith.

Your Honor,

the people of Hobbs Landing charge the defendant

with violation of local ordinance 65,

the practicing of witchcraft.

We request that he be held pending trial.

Excuse me, Doug, I missed that.

I thought you said witchcraft.

Your Honor, the defense moves

to dismiss this case as preposterous.

The prosecution of witchcraft as a criminal charge

was dismissed over 200 years ago.

Counsel, approach the bench, both of you, now.

Your Honor, the sheriff and prosecutor

have clearly trumped up a bogus charge

to unlawfully detain this man.

This is a violation of his civil rights.

Frankly, Doug, I think it mocks this court.

I won't lie.

The defendant is the leading suspect in the Reed murders,

and the sheriff needs more time to gather evidence,

but the outcome of this hearing is evidence in its own right.

There are elements of Satanism in the Reed murders.

And a conviction on witchcraft is a key element

in the prosecution of that case.

All right, I'm willing to see where this goes,

but if I don't like it, we're all going home.

Local ordinance 65 defines witchcraft

as "the practice of or belief in supernatural abilities."

Supernatural abilities such as

"the divination of future and past events,

the corruption or sickening of others

through incantations, spells,

motions of the hand or eye.

It is a communion with the Devil."

I have here newspaper reports from Bangor, Maine,

chronicling Mr. Smith's supernatural abilities.

Your Honor, my client does not deny that he's a psychic.

We've all heard about psychics.

We've seen them on TV.

"Supernatural abilities

such as the divination of future and past events."

That's what the ordinance says.

That's what Mr. Smith does, according to these reports.

I would also like to present into evidence

these items found in the car Mr. Smith was traveling in

that have a decidedly supernatural slant...

"The paranormal abilities of the human mind."

"Psychokinesis and you."

An x-ray of a human skull.

Not the most common item to be found in one's car.

And a CD of the heavy metal group AC/DC,

known for their Satanic lyrics

on songs like "Highway to Hell" and "Hell's Bells."

Your Honor, the x-rays are of Mr. Smith himself,

and were taken at the Boston Medical Center yesterday.

None of these personal items substantiate the claim

that my client engages in witchcraft.

If you're going to arrest anyone who listens to AC/DC,

you'll have to arrest other folks in this courtroom,

starting with me.

(laughter)

Johnny Smith.

You had to go and piss off Mayberry.

Bruce: By touching people or objects.

Like once, he touched a nurse

and saw that her daughter was in danger.

So, Mr. Lewis...

you admit to witnessing Mr. Smith's powers.

Is it accurate to say

that he divined future and past events?

I don't think he divined anything.

Really?

So how does he do it?

Medical science can't explain it.

I sure can't.

So you can't categorically dismiss

non-scientific explanations, can you?

For example, spiritual explanations?

I don't believe they come from the devil,

if that's what you're getting at.

But you have no alternative explanation to offer, do you?

Science has no alternative explanation.

You said so yourself.

I think that what Johnny has is a very...

new human ability.

- Or a very old one. - Objection. Leading.

Sustained. Watch it, Doug.

Just one more question, Mr. Lewis.

What do the doctors at your hospital call

the area of Mr. Smith's brain

that give him his supernatural powers?

- I'm not a doctor. - You must have heard it.

I mean, I called there this morning,

and it came up in conversation. What do they call it?

The dead zone.

The dead zone. Interesting.

Thank you, sir.

Mr. Lewis, the ordinance requires

"the corrupting or sickening of others."

Have you ever seen Mr. Smith

corrupt anyone or make someone sick?

- Never. - Have you ever seen him boil

an eye of newt or a wing of bat

- in a large cauldron? - Not to my knowledge, no.

No further questions.

Your Honor, may we have a brief recess, please?

- Back in 15. - Thank you.

Gene Purdy called me after you called him.

Called you? Where's he?!

Something urgent came up.

The truth is he's home, making sure his hands don't get dirty.

He asked me to keep him well informed

and express his deep concern for your well-being.

Great. We call for the cavalry, and he sends us a press release.

They can't expect this witchcraft charge

to hold up in court.

It doesn't have to hold up in court.

People hear what the prosecution is saying.

They know Satanism is involved in these murders.

I still think that the girls' father

- had something to do with this. - He's got an iron-clad alibi.

- I know, but we can... - Listen.

They found a doll of a man at that murder site.

When I touched it,

I got a vision of the father, Tom Reed.

There's something about him I can't put my finger on.

You and I should go over and talk to...

No, no. I need you to give me your word

that you're going to get the hell out of here, okay?

- I'll go home when you... - Listen!

There's nothing that you can do except get into more trouble,

serious trouble.

I can't concentrate when you're here, Bruce.

I need you gone.

They impounded the Cruiser.

Do you have a car?

Sebring convertible parked out front.

Take it.

- Man, I'm... - Please.

Take it.

Take care of yourself.

Gabe, I want to take the stand.

Oh, no. They haven't proven anything.

I don't think...

I don't have to convince the judge. I need to convince the people

of this town they don't have to be afraid of me.

I want them to hear my voice.

And I want them to see me as a human being.

I may not get another chance, Gabe.

Mr. Reed?

I'm Dana Bright from the "Bangor Daily News."

I was wondering if I might ask you

a few questions about your family?

I don't have anything to say.

Johnny: Believe me, there are times

I wish I didn't have this psychic ability,

but I have tried my best to use it in positive ways,

to help people.

I wouldn't even know how to begin to use it

in a harmful manner.

All right, thank you.

Mr. Smith,

I have here a report

of your interview with deputy Nancy Simmons.

It says here that by touching

certain key pieces of evidence,

you were able to see the crime scene in great detail.

It also says that you handled

a ritual dagger,

like that used in Satanic ritual,

and that you began to speak words

in a strange language.

What language did you speak?

I don't know.

- What did you see? - Objection.

That is not relevant to these proceedings.

I'll allow it.

Answer the question, Mr. Smith.

I saw the murder of Susan Reed.

(croWd chatterlng)

And when you saw the murder,

who did you see holding the knife?

- Objection. - Overruled.

You have to understand how these visions work.

In your vision, Mr. Smith,

Who was holding the knife?!

I was.

(croWd g asps, chatters)

Is it possible your vision was accurate?

That you killed Susan Reed,

that you've blocked it from your memory?

- Objection! - Sustained.

What have you done with Cathy?

- Get him out of here. - Where is she?!

(g avel bang s)

One more outburst like that from anyone,

and I will clear this court.

Your Honor, it's described in the newspaper articles

how Mr. Smith's psychic visions often place him

in the roles of other people during events he sees.

This line of questioning is deliberately inflammatory.

Doug, maybe you'd better fast-forward to your point.

My point, Your Honor, is very simple.

Either Mr. Smith possesses attributes

which meet the definition of witchcraft

under ordinance 65,

"Supernatural abilities,

including the divination of past and future events,"

or he lied to the investigators,

and was present at the scene of the murders.

- Yeah! - Yeah!

Order.

What's this guy doing, man?

No!

Oh, man, this isn't even my car.

Look, let's just talk about this.

(laughs)

(g ro ans)

Your Honor, this is a piece of evidence

reco vered fro m the crl me scene...

a hair clip belonging to Cathy Reed,

which was not touched by Mr. Smith

during his interview.

I'd like him to touch it now.

I will not allow my client to...

I'm giving him a chance to demonstrate

in the eyes of this court that his abilities

are what he claims them to be.

Otherwise, we have no choice

but to believe he's a murderer.

She's alive.

Just tell us what you've done with her, you freak!

Where is she? Where's Cathy?

I have no further questions.

That's it. Clear the court.

Get them out of here!

Bailiffs, clear the court.

A boat.

She's on a boat.

We'll find her.

The judge just tossed everybody out.

I'm beginning to be sorry we started this.

- Sheriff? - Yes.

I'm a reporter from Johnny Smith's hometown.

He just told me he thinks the missing girl might be on a boat.

Have you checked the harbor?

No, we've been looking in the woods all day.

That sounds an awful lot like a confession to me.

You just don't get it, do you?

I have seen Johnny Smith's powers.

Call it witchcraft or anything else you like,

but if I were you,

I'd sure as hell start searching boats.

She's alive.

He just admitted it on the stand.

We want to have a word with John Smith.

Go home, Eddie... all of you.

Nancy, you brought him in, he lied to your face,

and you arrested him.

You did the right thing then. You'll do it now.

He knows where Cathy is.

We just want to talk to the man.

That's right.

Judge: And while Mr. Smith possesses

an uncanny knowledge of recent events in this town,

he does not appear to have used his... powers

for personal gain or to harm others.

Therefore, he's broken no enforceable law.

- Man: Come on, let's go! - (door opens)

- Woman: Come on! - Man: Come in here.

Get out of here. Get out of my court!

Get your hands off me.

- Bailiff! - Man: Take him outside!

Come on, let's go. Move.

Eddie: It's too late for you now, boy!

Linda, what are you doing?

This is not the way we do things,

not in this town!

Man: We'll take care of it!

No!

(screa mlng)

What psychic motivation do you need to say where Cathy is?

I need to go to the crime scene.

Yeah, I figured you would. Isn't that what they say,

you always return to the scene of the crime?

This will all be over soon, Tom.

We don't know if anybody's here with her or not,

or even if she's alive or dead,

but if she is alive,

I don't want anybody doing anything stupid

to get that little girl killed.

Do I make myself clear?

Does Tom Reed have a boat?

No, he has an alibi.

Does he have a boat?

No, but...

But what?

He used to take care of the Vanderheim boat

over on dock five...

when the family wasn't here on vacation.

Are they here now?

No.

(sho utlng, jeerlng)

Mommy...

Well?

Bring me Daddy.

What are you doing?

Bring me Daddy.

Put it on the altar where he can watch.

- (Susan chanting) - Mommy, I'm scared.

This isn't fun.

Mommy.

Mommy, I don't want to play this game anymore.

(chanting in archaic language)

- Mommy. - Mom, what are you doing?

(chantlng co ntlnulng)

No!

No!

Mommy!

- Cathy? - Oh God, sweetie... oh.

Oh God. Oh...

Are you okay? Are you all right?

Sheriff!

Get him away from me!

Did you know how unstable your wife was?

You're out of your mind.

You've been hiding Cathy, haven't you?

Ever since she killed her mother.

She killed her own mother?

You didn't want anyone to know...

after her mother killed Suzy.

You knew!

You expect us to believe this cock and bull?

- Man: Burn him. - Johnny: You knew!

- That's it. - Linda: That's a lie!

You're going to tell us where she is.

Johnny: You know!

- You knew! - Right now!

Nancy, pick up.

- Sheriff: Pick up. - (clicks off)

Tie him up.

Here's how we do this.

You tell us where the girl is,

or we send you straight back to hell.

You can stop this.

Tell the truth!

Shut up!

You're all under arrest, damn it,

every one of you!

Holy Judas, mother of God.

What have you people done?

What have you done?

I tried to stay quiet, Daddy,

but they busted in. I'm sorry.

Johnny, "I'm sorry," doesn't even begin to cover it.

At least one man was willing to stand by me, so thank you.

You know, this town...

my father grew up here, my father's father.

We go all the way back to the American Revolution.

This town has always been a place

of ideals and principles.

I just wish I knew when we lost that.

Today.

- No. - Yes.

- No. - Yes.

You're grounded.
