What's he doing up there?

- Hey! Jimmy!
- Hang on a minute.

Can't see.

It's foggy.

Gone cold too.

What do you say?!

I tell you it's foggy!

Cloud, or something...

Hey! Wait a minute.

There's someone coming.

Who is it, Jim, the
Abominable Snowman?

I tell you, there's
someone coming.

I can't see a thing.

Who is it? Who is it?

No... no...!

Nooo...!

Gerald!

- Help.
- Right.

Take the strands.
Haul it quick.

Stand by. Now pick it up.

- Heave.
- Hold.

Heave!

Can you see him?

Not yet. He's just
below the lip.

Here he is. Jim?

No!

Come on! Come on!

You idiot, we nearly had him.
Why did you let him go?

Didn't you see it?
What are you taking about?
His head...

It was torn off!

Hey...? Anne?

- Huh?
- Were you dreaming?

No, I don't think so. Why?

You were talking in your sleep.

Did I give away any secrets?

Not really. I didn't quite
catch his last name.

Silly.

- Would you like some tea?
- No, thank you.

You sure you feel all right?

Yeah, I feel wonderful.
I wish everybody would stop
treating me like an invalid.

I'm sorry.

Look. Anne, there
are the mountains.

Anne...

- What happened? Did I faint?
- Now don't worry. It's all right.

Is there anything I can do?

Oh, ah... my name
is Alan Brooks.

Oh... I'm Anne Pilgrim and...

- this is my sister, Sarah.
- Hello.

How do you do?

There we are.

I'm sorry about your
newspaper, Mr. Brooks.

Oh, that's all right. I've
read the baseball scores.

There you are. Spot of that
will bring the color back.

- You look like you might do with one.
- No, thanks.

- You have far to go?
- Geneva.

That's quite a run.

[Conductor] Trollenberg.

Next... Trollenberg.

Trollenberg?

Sarah, we're getting
off at Trollenberg.

That's my stop.

What's the matter, Anne? You
know we have to go on to Gen...

No! I really can't go
any further today.

We can stop at the Hotel Europa.

Hotel Europa? We've never been
to this place. How do you know
about the Hotel Europa?

I don't know.

Anne, what's got into you?!

We're getting off at Trollenberg.
Please, Sarah!

Herr Brooks, I'm sorry I'm late.

Did you have a
nice trip, I hope?

Herr Klein, nice
to see you again.

Oh, I'd like you to meet
Miss Anne and Sarah Pilgrim.

Herr Klein. He's the proprietor
of the Hotel Europa.

I wonder if you can help us out.
These young ladies have arrived
without any reservations.

- I thought perhaps you
could put them up.
- Yes...

- it will be all right.
- Good.

- Thank you very much.
- The car is outside.

It's very good of you to put
us up on such short notice.

Well, this is not yet our
season, you understand.

- Oh? I thought now would have
been about your busiest time.
- Normally yes, but ahh...

Oh, is... is Hans still
working for you?

Yes, Hans is still working for
us, Herr Brooks. Thank You.

- Cigarette, Sarah?
- No, thank you.

Anne?

No, thank you.

- How about you, Herr Klein?
- Thank you. I don't smoke.

They shouldn't have
started the climb.

- What are you talking about?
- An accident.

Last week. Twelve hundred
feet up the south col.

Three English students.
One of them was killed.

Was there an accident,
Mr. Klein?

On a mountain, these
things sometime happen.

What else do you know
about the Trollenberg?

Peasants are leaving
the mountain.

They say it's bad luck.

The mountain people
are very simple.

They are superstitious.

All these stories are nonsense.

What stories?

Climbers, disappearing into the
mist and never seen again.

- Hans, we have guests.
- Yes, sir.

Hello. You must be Mr. Brooks.

Klein told us you were coming. My
name's Truscott, Philip Truscott.

How are you Mr. Truscott?

Klein, you didn't tell us we
were expecting other guests.

Oh, this is Miss Sarah Pilgrim
and Miss Anne Pilgrim.

Pilgrim? Sarah and Anne Pilgrim?

I'm sure we've met before.

- The name rings a bell.
- Does it?

Would you mind if we went
up to our rooms now?

It's all there:

Observatory at the
foot of the mountain.

Cable car.

There's a small hut the climbers use.
You can see it from the observatory.

It's all there.
Just like...

Just like what, Anne?

Well, just like...

Sarah, why did
I want to come here?

What is there about this place?
Why do I feel I've seen it all before?

Don't worry about it, darling. Lots
of people get a feeling like that.

Perhaps you read about it in a book,
or saw a picture in a travel folder.

You mustn't let it upset you.

No... no, I mustn't.

Yes, you're right.

I've probably read about it.

Come in.

- Hi.
- How are you?

Give you a hand?

Oh, I think I can manage.

Lovely spot this, isn't it?

- It certainly is.
- You've been here
before, haven't you?

Yes, once, a couple years ago.

Good climbing.

- So they tell me.
- Don't you climb?

Not if I can help it.

Funny place to come
for a holiday.

If you don't climb.

Yes, isn't it?

Attractive, those two
girls, aren't they?

They certainly are.

Pilgrim sisters, Sarah and Anne...

Of course, I knew I'd seen
them before somewhere.

On the Palladium, about a month ago.
They're a mind-reading act.

Funny they didn't say anything.

Well, perhaps they ah...

they wanted some privacy.

Can I buy you a drink later?

- All right.
- Good.

Give me zero-x-6-4-6-8,
will you?

I want you to check
on someone for me.

Brooks, Alan Brooks.
He's just arrived here.

He's American. He's about
40, I should think.

Well, I should try New York first,
then Los Angeles, and then Washington.

OK.

Right.

Hello there. You'll be Brooks.

- That's right.
- I'm Dewhurst. This is Brett.

- How do you do?
- How you doing?

- Looks like you're going for a climb.
- Yes, we're going up the Trollenberg.

Gonna have a noggin' before we start.
Care to join us?

All right.

- What's it gonna be?
- Scotch, please.

Scotch and the two brandies.

Better give me a bottle of
brandy to take with us.

Keep the cold out tonight.

You gonna stay the night?

No, there's a hut at the
foot of the south col.

We'll sleep there tonight and attack
the mountain proper tomorrow.

Hello, Truscott.

You must be Miss Pilgrim.

- Yes, that's right.
- Oh, this is Mr. Dewhurst, Sarah...

and Mr...

- Brett.
- Brett. Yes.

Do you care for a drink?
I appear to be in the chair.

Wish us bon voyage.

Thank you. I'll have a Campari.

- Truscott?
- Scotch, please.

Campari and another
scotch, Hans, please.

Sit down, Sarah.

Your sisters here with you, isn't she?
Klein told us.

- Would she care to join us?
- No, she's having a rest just now.

Quite an occasion for me.

My first climb up a mountain.

Well, yours too, Mr. Brett?

Oh, no.

He's a big voice in
the Alpine Club.

How'd you come to take
up mountaineering?

Wanted to see if we can't
find some good reason for
all these accidents.

I'm a geologist, I know all about rock
formations and that sort of thing.

Welp, here we are.

Cheers.

- Good Luck.
- To a good climb.

Keep an eye on your
roping, won't you.

Why roping, particularly?

- The student business last week.
- That's right, nasty business.

Very nasty.

What was that?

Some kids,

climbing on the south col,
and one of them fell.

They shouldn't have been
climbing without a guide!

Seems he wasn't roped up
correctly and the rope got
caught up around his neck.

- Strangled him?
- Worse than that.

Tore his head off.

You don't know the half of it.

Tell him what the
villagers say, Hans.

It's not for me to...

What do they say, Hans?

Well...

the guides who found him,

also his friends,

they swear the rope
was around his waist.

You understand,

it was still tied.

But,

how could it have...?

The villagers have something
to say about that too.

Haven't they, Hans?

Excuse me.

What do the villagers
say, Truscott?

They say that it
happened before he fell.

As I said, they shouldn't allow
inexperienced climbers up the
Trollenberg without a guide.

- There are bound to be accidents.
- Nevertheless, you watch your roping.

We ought to be moving, if we want
to make the hut before nightfall.

[German]

Oh, ah, I'm going up
to the observatory.

I'll hitch a ride with
you in the cable car.

That is, unless you're going
to climb the whole way.

Climb the whole way?
Not if I can help it!

See, there are certain
chemical changes that can
take place inside rock...

which cause a physical
alteration to its structure.

At times it can become like
chalk, break away in hand.

- What do you think of that, Brett?
- Huh?

Oh, I don't think it's like that.
A mountains a mountain.

Some people can climb
it and some can't.

Those that can't, shouldn't try.

I'm here under sufferance.

How long do you think it
will take you to reach the
hut from the observatory?

I don't know.

Oh, about three and half hours.
It's an easy climb.

Professor.

Professor.

How many more times do I tell you?
I'm not to be interrupted.

I'm sorry sir, but there's
someone outside to see you.

I don't care. Tell
him to go away.

- He says his name is Brooks.
- Tell him to...

- Alan Brooks?
- Yes, sir.

Well, bring him
in, bring him in!

No. Wait. Wait.

I bring him in myself.

Alan, my dear Alan.

They all get the sack for leaving
you out here. Come in. Come in.

It's good of you to come and see me.
And on your holidays too.

- I was lucky it was in Europe.
You got my letter?
- Yes.

Well, you don't say very much.
What's the matter? You're not
pleased to see your old friend?

- [German], professor.
- And how are you, Alan?

Come in. Come in.

Well, Alan, what do you think
of our little observatory, huh?

Yes, indeed.

You know, the government gives
me as much money as I want.

Come here.
I show you something.

Television?

Better than windows.
Now look.

- Hmm.
- Do you see?

Television cameras on the roof.
We watch everywhere!

You know,

the government,

the government, they
say to me, "Professor,

do you have to have
such expensive things?

Windows are much cheaper!"

And I say, "I have to have",
and I have!

That over there.
That is the only window.

And even for that,
we have protection.

Look.

That will stand up to any avalanche.

But that too was very expensive.

All this to study cosmic rays.

Well, Alan, come into my office.

Well, Alan, here we are.

Same old mess, huh?

Well, you're looking very fit.

Fit?

I look the same as always.

Come on, quit your stalling, professor.
You forget I know you.

You said in your letter that it
was urgent I see you right away.

What's so urgent?

Well, how long you been
here in Trollenberg, Alan?

Got here this morning.
Came right up to see you.

You haven't heard about
the accidents then?

Yes, I heard about the students.

Yeah, that was one
of them, but...

but there have been others.

Many others!

Where people climb mountains
there are lots of accidents.

That's true.

And sometimes, the bodies,
they disappear.

But here,

the search parties go out,
and always they find nothing.

Now why is that?

I don't know.

- And then there is the cloud.
- What cloud?

Come on, Alan, you know
what I'm talking about.

The cloud where there
should be no cloud.

Where there are mountains,
there are always clouds.

But this one remains static,
on the side of the Trollenberg.

It never moves.

A freak of nature.

A radioactive freak of nature?

- Radioactive?
- Uh huh.

Can we see it from here?

Come, I'll show you.

There you are. On the south
side of the Trollenberg.

Alan. Come here.

You see.

Here... here's a map of the area.

This is the Trollenberg.

Now that...

that is the scanner.
It's up on the roof here.

Now, you see, at the moment...

nothing, no reaction, nothing.

Now remember, here is the cloud.

I turn on the scanner... so.

Now watch when it passes the cloud.

Watch up here on the dials.

Uh huh. Now you see it's
past the cloud... nothing.

Watch it go around again.

Watch here.

Well, what do you think of that?

Alan, I ask you to think
back 3 years ago,

to what happened in the Andes.

- But... but this can't be the same!
- Why not?

We have the accidents like before.
We have the cloud like before.

- Why can't it be the same?
- Too many things missing.

- The mental compulsion...
- What is it?

The girl on the train.

She... she suddenly decided she
had to get off at Trollenberg.

She was booked for Geneva.

But she had to get
off at Trollenberg!

And did she?

Yes.

She's at the hotel.

There's climbers on
the Trollenberg, sir!

Climbers? I thought they
were all scared away.

- Where are they?
- 16 degrees west of true north.

2000 meters.

Oh, it's Brett and Dewhurst.

- You know them?
- Just from the hotel.

They came up with
me on the cable car.

Well...

They should be all right as long
as they stick to their present track.

The cloud is well to
the west of the path.

Alan... will you do something
about what I've told you?

The cloud? Do what?

Inform the authorities.

Look, I'm on a holiday.

Besides, you haven't told me
anything that can be proved.

I've told you about the cloud.
I've told you about the accidents.
What more do you want?

Facts. Proof.

Something that'll look real in black
and white on a committee's desk.

Oh no, I'm not gonna
stick my neck out again
like I did in the Andes.

But why? You were employed
by the United Nations.
It was all in the report.

Look, by the time the Andes report
was in, there wasn't anything left...

in the area, explained
or otherwise.

They practically accused me
of dreaming the whole thing up.

If I was to take a hand here,
I'd have to have a list...

of documented facts and they'd
have to be pretty conclusive.

You're an important man.
Why don't you get through to Bern.

Important! I'm only important if
I say something about cosmic rays.

If I say anything else, they tell
me to mind my own business.

Maybe... maybe you
should speak to Klein.

- The hotel proprietor?
- Well, he's also the mayor of Trollenberg.

Perhaps he could help.

Anyway, he could supply
a list of the accidents.

Then perhaps you do
something yourself.

You all right?

Take your pack off, man.
You can't relax like that.

Hello?
Yes, Herr Brett.

You're arrived all right!
Good... good.

A nights sleep will set you right.

Yes, all right.

Good-bye.

It was Herr Brett.

They have arrived at the hut.

You see, there's nothing
to worry about.

It is just unfortunate that
this year we have had many
inexperienced climbers.

And what about the
rumors in the village?

Well! You know these people, professor.
They are superstitious.

They like to believe in...
in fairy stories.

Gentlemen, you understand,

officially,

there's nothing I can do.

We should be able to make
the summit and back tomorrow,
if we travel light.

I must have a sack
for rock samples.

I think we can manage that.

You can take your sack.

Hmm... visibilities not to good.

- Hope it'll clear.
- Fog? Up here?

No. A cloud,

moving down from the peak.

- Will this do, Miss Pilgrim?
- Oh, this'll be fine.

It's quite a collection
you have there.

- Now would somebody
bring Anne in, please?
- Oh, yes.

Now you'll see that I make no
signals to Anne and say nothing.

So it's impossible for any
sort of code to be used.

Well done, Alan.

It's a bank note,
French, 500 francs.

There's a number on it.

H...

Oh...

One...

One...

Eight...

Eight!

Well done... very good... ya...

And, who does it
belong to, young lady?

- Philip.
- Well done!

It's a rounded sort of object
about the size of a tennis ball.

Made of glass.

I think it's used as a paper weight.

There's a model inside it.

A mountain and a little hut.

And when you shake it
there's a snow storm.

Snow...

mountains...

a little hut...

- Two men in the hut.
- Anne!

- Leave her alone.
- The fat one, he's asleep.

Yes, the fat one, he's asleep.

But he's not the one.

It's the other one,

sitting at a table,

smoking,

writing in a book.

He's the one.

He's getting up,

he's coming toward the door.

He's reached the door.

He's opening it.

He's coming out.

Up the slope.

Up the slope!

Walking slowly!

No...

Mountains...

Paperweight.

Glass paperweight.

- Please, don't crowd.
- Take her up to her room.

- Hello.
- Hello, Brett?

- Dewhurst here. What do you want?
- Are you all right?

Yes, why?

- Is Brett there?
- Of course he is.

Wouldn't go wandering off
in the middle of the night...

Just a minute... hold on.

Dewhurst!

Dewhurst, is Brett there?
Can you hear me? Dewhurst?

Are you there?
Hello? Hello?

Hello? You're right, he's not here.
He must have just gone out.
I better go and look for him.

No, don't do that.
You'll be lost in 5 seconds.
Just sit tight where you are.

I think I should go. There
may be something wrong.

No! You're not to move.
Stay in the hut!

- What's the weather like?
- Not very good.

Some heavy cloud coming down.

Well then, stay where you are,
there'll be somebody at this
end of the phone all night.

If Brett show up, or if you need
us, ring us here, will you?

All right. Bye.

Bye.

Brett!

Brett!

[Echoes]

She's coming around, I think.

- Where am I? What happened?
- It's all right, darling.

You passed out.

Now we need something
to relax you sister.

A sedative, perhaps?
You have such a thing?

I may have some sleeping
pills in my room. Shall I
see if I can find them?

Oh, please.
Thank you.

Sarah, could I speak with
you for a minute, please?

All right.

I shan't be a minute.

Now, Miss Sarah, I don't want
you to upset yourself...

Are these any good?

Oh.

Yes, that's fine.

Now, you give her 2 of these,
then come downstairs, please.

All right.

So Mr. Brett decides to take a walk.

- That is not so strange.
- Hope you're right.

How is she?

Well, she'll be all right, I think.

- Did you get through to the hut?
- Yes.

Brett isn't there.

Did you notice how she said...

he was coming out of the hut,
coming up the mountain side?

It was as though she
was watching from on
the Trollenberg itself.

Well, Miss Sarah, I wanted
to ask you something.

This act of yours, you've
been doing it for how long?

About 2 years now.

You don't use a code, do you?

Well, we used to.

And hen we found that Anne
could guess what I was thinking
before I started speaking.

- But I don't see what
this has got to do...
- Please, please...

Your sister's telepathic, no?

Yes, she is.

- I wanted to give up the act.
- Why?

Well, you saw what happened tonight.
It's a dreadful mental strain.

That's really why we're
taking this holiday.

Nevertheless,

you will take her away from here
first thing tomorrow, please.

Take her aw... But why?!

It's not good for her here.

You will take her away first
thing in the morning, all right?

If you say so.

Good.

Hello?

Yes.

Yes, he's here.

It's for you, professor.

Thank you.

Hello.

- Hello, Crevett here.
- Professor?

I thought I'd better
contact you.

That cloud has started moving.

Yes. It's variation
is about 6 degrees.

Radioactivity increasing.

The radioactivity
is increasing too, sir.

Wait a minute and I'll find out.

Yes.

Yes, I understand.

I'll be up in the morning.

The cloud has moved.

It is at the foot of the south col.

Where the hut is!

Hello!

Oh, hello Alan.

No, no sign of him yet.

It's foggy as hell outside.
Anyway, I can't see far.

Perishing cold too.

Yes.

Yes.

Hold on a minute.

There's someone outside.
Hang on.

Brett?
Brett, is that you?

False alarm, I guess.

Hang on a minute, I'm
just gonna close the door.

Dewhurst, can you hear me?

Dewhurst?

Dewhurst? Hello? Hello?

Dewhurst?

Well?

The phones gone dead.

Hello.

Yes, speaking.

Yes...

I see.

All right.

All right.

It was the observatory.

The cloud has moved
away from the hut.

Back up the Trollenberg.

[SPEAKS GERMAN]

We better start now.
It will be light soon.

[SPEAKS GERMAN]

I though the locals were afraid
of going up that mountain.

They are afraid.

It's an unwritten law here.

At a time like this, they go
up, no matter what.

I have called a spotter plane,

but it will not be
up until morning.

We will be well
on our way by then.

Ready?

- All right, Herr Klein.
- Good.

Look after yourself, Alan.

Don't worry.

I'll stop by the observatory
on the way down.

Good.

Be careful everyone.

Here they come.

Professor?

Here they come.

Men,

They're climbing the ledge.

They'll be here soon.

Soon they'll be at the hut.

Keep them away.

Keep them away from the hut.

Away from the hut!
Away from the hut!

Professor?

What's the matter?
Why does she behave like this?

Well...

Well, it's...

It's like a radio receiver.

You see...

your sister's mind is capable
of receiving signals sent
out by other minds,

by yours for example.

Now...

now there is a stronger signal,
I think, a stronger mind.

It's jamming the wavelength.

But who is it?

Well, we shall know
more about that, I think,
when they reach the hut.

In the meantime, I say to you
again, get your sister out of
here before it is too late.

Too late for what?

Well, it's time I was getting
back to the observatory.

Too late for what, professor?

When they reach the hut,

then we shall know
for sure, I think.

The door's locked from the inside.
They must be there.

Mr. Brett! Mr. Dewhurst!

I just looked in through the window.
The place seems deserted.

Philip.

Come here.

These blankets...

frozen stiff.

Where are they?

That door was barred
on the inside.

- Yeah...
- Herr Brooks!

[SPEAKS GERMAN]

It's Dewhurst.

His head's been torn off.

Anne, we're leaving here today.

No, Sarah.

But Anne, why not?
Look, after last night...

I just want to stay
here, that's all.

Now, Anne, I really mean this!
We're leaving Trollenberg today!

All right?

All right.

Now, don't you worry
about anything at all.

And I'll go and fix things up.

[SPEAKS GERMAN]

You know these
mountains, Herr Klein.

What do you think of our
chances of finding him?

Herr Brett is an experienced climber
so we can only assume that he's hurt.

[Indistinct] ...the spotter plane
should be here any minute.

[SPEAKS GERMAN]

Hey, Alan.

This is why the telephone
went dead.

The wires are broken.

What do you make of it?

Never seen that happen before.

I have.

I saw some experiments
with excessive cold once.

If wire like this is subjected
to sufficient cold, it crystallizes,
the structure breaks down.

- Just like this here.
- It hasn't been cold!

- Not cold enough for this.
- Yeah, I know it.

Spotter.

Plane to party. Plane to party.
Are you receiving me?
Are you receiving me?

Party to plane.
Receiving you loud and clear.

What is your position?
What is your position?

Our position:
map reference 2-6-5-8-4-3.
Over.

Roger, party. I can see you now.

I shall fly north

for 5 miles, then turn
west for 5 miles,

- then south.
- Uh huh.

- I shall cover this search area first.
- Roger, plane!

Anne, I...

Hello?

Hello, I want to speak
to the observatory,

Professor Crevett.

Hello, party. This is the plane.

I have spotted him.
I have spotted him.

He's approximately half a mile
due north of your position.

- Above the north face.
- Roger, plane.

Miss Pilgrim, my name's Wilde.

Professor Crevett sent me to
bring you to the observatory.

But I'm not to go
to the observatory.

Well, there's nowhere else to go.
It's only a couple hundred yards.

I'm to go up the mountain.

I don't think so, Miss Pilgrim.

I think you ought to wait
a while at the observatory.

[SPEAKS GERMAN]

Herr Brett! [Echoes]

[SPEAKS GERMAN]

Swing it 30 degrees west.

- How about that?
- Negative.

- Hugo?
- Negative.

Swing another 30 degrees.

Negative.

Negative.

Try the other circuit.

No. Wait.

Switch back to the first circuit
and reverse the scanner.

Now...

Well, hello Anne.
What are you doing up here?

I must go.

- Please excuse me.
- Go? Go where?

To the Trollenberg.
I must go, now.

- Don't let her go, sir.
- Don't worry.

Come along.

Oh, good.

- Alan, I want to speak with you.
- Yeah, I've got news for you too.

Hans, when's the next cable
car go down the mountain?

- It shouldn't be long, sir.
- Good. I...

I want you to take Anne down.
Don't let her out of your sight.

Anne, I want you to go with Hans.
He'll take care of you.

Thank you, Hans.

- Well, I've been to the hut.
- And?

Dewhurst is dead.
Brett's missing.

Not that I'm surprised, mind you.

The cloud has started moving again.

What cloud?

Oh, I don't think you'd
understand, Philip.

Like that time in the
Andes, do you mean?

How do you know about that?

All right, I'm a newspaper man.
It's my job to know about these things.

I see.

I chased that story when we
got a wind of your report, Alan.

When I got there it was too late.

Looks as if I'm going to be more
fortunate this time, doesn't it?

Yeah. Fine. Fine. That's...
that's just what we need.

You haven't answered
my question, professor.

- What question?
- Is this the same as it was then?

Seems to be.

So what happens now?

The United Nations
have a special team for
investigating phenomenon.

I call them in.

Does the... theory that you
put forward last time
still hold, professor?

What theory?

Visitors from outer space.
That was it, wasn't it?

- Well, what else?
- Well, what are they?
What do they want?

Look, Philip,

there are many galaxies besides ours.

Now, who knows what is happening
millions of miles out in space.

Perhaps the world that these creatures
inhabit is coming to an end.

Perhaps the need to find
somewhere else to live.

- Well why pick on us?
- We don't know it's just us.

Maybe it's also Mars, Venus, Jupiter.
Who can tell?

Do you go along with this?

Until someone comes
up with a better theory...

Yes... yes I do.

All right.

All right, while we're theorizing...

Why, do you think, do they
always happen to land on
the tops of mountains?

First the Andes, and
now the Trollenberg.

Well, it's the atmosphere, I think.

You see, it gets much thinner high up.

Well, perhaps these
creatures need that.

The cloud would seem
to indicate this too.

Creating their own atmosphere.

Well, if they can only exist
on the tops of mountains

they're hardly likely to
inherit the earth, are they?

You see, anyone can get
used to anything, in time.

Now these movements we
have recorded here, each
time lower down the mountain.

Acclimatization perhaps?

What next, professor?

The next move is up to you, Alan.

You must inform the authorities!

Have you seen the professor?

He's in the office with Alan Brooks.
They're telephoning Zurich.

Any sign of Mr. Brett yet?

Well, the plane spotted someone
he thought was him, and 2 of the
searchers went to meet him.

The others are back.
They saw nothing.

Well, if it was Brett, they
aught to be back by now.

- Where's your sister?
- She's in her room.

Good.

You think she's safe from
our "friends" up there?

Well, I don't think they'll
try the same thing again.

Trouble is...

what will they try?

Herr Brett... you all right?

A bit tired,

otherwise all right.

Where have you been?
We had search parties out for you.

I was lost.

- Dewhurst get back all right?
- When did you see him last?

- Dewhurst?
- Yes.

- Last night I saw him.
- At the hut?

Yes, at the hut.

It's a bit hot in here.

Pour me a drink, Klein.

Have one on me.

- Let me help you.
- Sorry.

Thank you.

- How's your sister, Miss Pilgrim?
- She's all right now.

Where is she?

- She's in...
- Here...

have a cigarette.

Bit nervous, I'm afraid.

Pretty scary up
there on your own.

Were you all on your own?

After I lost Dewhurst.

I'm sorry to be a
nuisance, but may...

Look at his head.

There's no blood.

That should take care of him
until the morning, I think.

Good.

The UNO team will be here
tomorrow and Dr. Frekard
can have a look at him.

Do we tell the others what
he was trying to do?

I don't know.

I don't know about you,
but I could use a drink.

Alan, what is this all about?

Brett behaving like that, I mean.

You read the Andes report.
Don't you know?

Do you mean to say something
like this has happened before?

Oh, that part of the
report was hushed up.

There was an old woman down there.
She was clairvoyant.

The villagers thought
she was a witch.

Actually, it was case of more
than ordinary sensory powers.

Crevett was able
to hypnotize her.

She was remarkably sensitive
to outside suggestion.

You know, mental suggestion.

Under hypnosis, one
can tell these things.

Well... it was about the same time
as we first observed the cloud.

She started having these trances.

It was a though some mental
compulsion was working on her.

She began seeing things.

We planned a course of hypnosis to try
and find where these compulsions
were coming from, but...

we never did start it.

There was a man...
he went up the mountain.

He'd been missing for 24 hours
and then he came down.

His co-ordinations
were not quite right.

Just like Brett.

The first opportunity he got, he
took a meat axe to the old woman.

We got there about
10 minutes later.

Both dead.

How did the man die?

Crevett...

The man had been
dead already 24 hours.

I know, I know, it's
impossible, of course.

But you see, there are certain
changes which take place in
the body after death.

They follow a pattern
that can not be altered.

The man had been dead already,
24 hours. There was no doubt!

I was unfortunately unable
to perform the autopsy.

The police took over.

Are you trying to tell me
that Brett is like that?

That...

we've just been fighting a...

dead man?

We believe that he was sent
down that mountain by...

whatever's up there, for the express
purpose of killing Anne Pilgrim.

They can't afford for
Anne to be alive.

She's a threat to their security.

They tried to entice her up there.

Now they've tried this.

- Neither's worked.
- So what do they try now?

I don't know.

- Professor?
- I don't know, either.

But whatever it is, we won't
have to wait long to find out.

Alan!

Alan!

Alan!

Oh, Alan!

Alan!

Wake up! Please!

Alan! Please!

Alan!

Alan! Come quickly!

Alan!

- Alan, look at this.
- What?

Hans, bring the light closer.

Now put it lower. Lower.

Put it on the floor.

You see the way the
flesh reflects the light?

It's almost as though
it was crystallized.

Like meat that's
been deep frozen.

I still don't understand
how such a...

Alan, the observatory's
just been on...

That clouds moving again.
It's coming down the Trollenberg,
towards the village.

Hans, I've told you, you're wasting
your time. That phone is dead.
The wires have been cut.

- We gotta get up to the observatory.
- But we must...

You heard what the professor said.
That place is built like a fort.

If we're going to have any direct
contact with these things, at least
we'll have some kind of chance up there.

It's insane!
We should try to get out...

- to the valley!
- The road is blocked. The cloud
stretches right across it.

Alan?

- We'd better get moving, eh?
- Yes. Yes. You.. you go in the
next cable car with the girls.

- You got everyone?
- Nearly everyone.

Got 12 left.

One has all ready gone up and the
other one will be down in 10 minutes.

- Who is that?
- It's Hans.

All right everybody, let's get up to
the cable car as quickly as we can.

We haven't got very much time.

- Got everything, Philip?
- Yep.

- Hey, what about Hans?
- He's driving through that cloud!

Professor, are you sure
we're doing the right thing,
coming up to your observatory?

Right or wrong?
I don't know.

What I do know is it's wrong
to stay down in the village.

Up there, we stand
some chance, at least.

Professor, look,

on the lower slopes, the cloud!
It's moving faster.

I hope they see it down there.

The operator says it
is 5 minutes now.

Good.

Alan!

The clouds moving pretty fast now.

Please folks, I'd like for you
all to be ready to load in the
car as soon as it gets down.

We haven't got
a second to spare.

It's nearly at the hotel.

If only we could see into that
cloud at least we'd know
what we were dealing with.

Well, we'll know soon enough.

It seems to have
stopped at the hotel.

Yeah, well, as long as it
stays there, we're all right.

At least that cloud lets
us see where it moves.

Let's get aboard as quickly
as possible, please.

That's it.
Hurry along.

Please, ma'am, please.

[SPEAKS GERMAN]

Of course... the child!

If that cloud starts to move
this way before I get back,
take the car up, understand?

- What about you?
- Do as you're told!

Stay!

[SPEAKS GERMAN]

Tell her that Mr...

All right, let's get
in the cable car.

That's it.

- That was a close shave.
- It was.

We're not through yet.

Remember the telephone
wires at the hut?

Yeah.

This contraption operate
in extreme cold?

- We work the cable car at 30 below.
- Colder than that?

It never gets colder than that.

The cable, it will snap!

All right, quick, everybody out!

That's it.

We're leaving the villagers out
here, sir. It's just as safe, and
they won't get in the way.

- Are the radios still working?
- We checked it about 15 minutes ago.

Oh, Alan, come here.

- Alan, we are in big trouble.
- What now?

- The cloud is splitting up..,
- Splitting up?!

There are 4 of them now.
And all moving this way.

- How long before they get here?
- An hour, maybe.

Then we've got just an hour to
decide what we're gonna do.

Better check that radio again.

- You're going to signal the authorities?
- To tell them what?!

What do you use
against these things?

- High explosives?
- Bombs?

The time the plane get here,
those things will be all over us.
How do they drop their bombs then?

- Sets still working OK, sir.
- Good.

Let me see that thing again.

There's someone knocking at
the outside door, Herr Wilde.

- It's Hans, from the hotel.
- I'll let him in.

There are 5 of them now.
And all moving.

Well, if we don't make up our minds
pretty soon, they'll be made up for us.

Hans, what's the matter?

What happened?

The cloud, it was
straight across the road.

I turned the car and came back.

You all right?

Yes.

I'm all right.
Thank you.

It is so hot in here!

Stay here with the others, Hans.
You'll be all right soon.

Thank you.

[SPEAKS GERMAN]

I know it's a lot to ask, Sarah,
but I don't see any other way.

Anne, where're you going?

- I'm just going to sit
down in the office.
- All right.

But how can Anne help?
She doesn't know anything.

We don't for sure that
she can. But Sarah, we've
got to try something.

Obviously, she has some kind
of contact with these things,
whether she know it of not.

I thought perhaps with you
controlling her thinking, we...

we might be able to learn something
about what we're dealing with.

I suppose we could try.

Professor, it's the
thermometer on the south col,
it's going down all the time.

- It's 45 below.
- And still dropping.

- It's a cloud location, isn't it?
- There is a cloud there, yes.

Wait a minute.
Say it's cold they need.

They live in cold. Remember
the phone wires at the hut?

And Brett complained of being
hot after he was infected.

- Yes.
- And Hans too, he
complained of the heat.

Supposing that...
Hans? What about him?

He arrived a few moments ago,
said he changed his mind about
trying to escape. He complained...

- Where is he?!
- Out in the corridor.

- Where's Hans?
- He went inside a minute ago.

- He came in here.
- Well, where can he... Anne!

No, Sarah, no!

Wait, my dear, please.

Poor devil.

- Anne!
- She'll be all right, I think.

Wilde. Better take care of him.

How thick are these walls?

- I don't know, 2, 3 feet, maybe.
- Fireproof?

Well, yes, they're reinforced
concrete against the avalanche.

Good. Hugo, get on the radio,
United Nations in Bern. I want
to talk to Colonel Spellman.

Now that Anne can't help us anymore,
there's only one thing left.

- What's that?
- What I said before.

Every time we've come up
against these things there's
been this intense cold.

Remember you said that Brett looked
like he'd been in a deep freeze.

Heat! That's what we've got to use.
I'm going to ask for a bombing raid.

- You said that was impossible.
- Fire bombs, that's our answer.

Through to Bern, Mr. Brooks.

- Got any petrol?
- Yes.

Fine. Get it. And all the jars
and bottles you've got.

I think a bit more in that one.

That's fine.

Be sure and get that rag stuffed in
there tight so the petrol won't leak.

May I have your attention, please?

I don't want anyone to leave this
corridor unless I say so. Understood?

In the meantime, get as many of
these ready as you can, and be
careful of them, they're dangerous.

And I can tell you that help's
on its way. Thank you.

- Alan?
- Yeah?

How we gonna use
these "bombs" of yours?

You light the rags and throw them
at those things in the cloud.

Alan, come here, quickly.

Look at this.

- Cute little things, aren't they?
- Yeah.

I'm gonna throw a bomb
at that one. You watch on the
screen and see what happens.

Would you all go up to the
far end of the corridor, please?
Except you, you come with me.

I want you to slam this door
behind me and wait for me
to knock to come back in.

If I don't knock,
don't open it, right?

All right.

Get me a couple
more of those bottles.

- I saw it on the screen.
- Those things can really move.

We really got to get a direct
hit or surround them with so
much flame they can't get out.

- Let me try one.
- All right.

Alan, there's one on the roof!
It's taken Philip!

Thanks.

- You all right?
- Yes.

Thank, Alan.

- Now what?
- I don't know.

We can't go out that door
again, that's for sure.

It's the only way in or out of
this observatory, I've checked.

No more bombs then.

Not these.

- Well, what do we do then?
- I don't know.

There's nothing much we can do,
but wait for that airplane.

What are they doing now?

- Can't tell anymore. They block
out the cameras, you see?
- Yeah.

Jolly Roger to observatory.
Jolly Roger to observatory.

Receiving you loud and clear.
ETA in 5 minutes. Over.

Mr. Brooks, I'm through to the plane.
He says ETA in about 5 minutes.

Good. Tell him to make a straight
run over the observatory and
drop his bombs on the roof.

I hope he knows what he's doing.

Hello, Jolly Roger.

- Hello, Jolly Roger.
- Jolly Roger to observatory...

- No change?
- None.

Repeat. Waiting your instructions.
Over.

Hello, observatory. I can just
make you out through a great
deal of low hanging cloud. Over.

Tell him to bomb the cloud.

Hello, Jolly Roger.

Drop first stick across observatory
and cloud. Understand?

Bomb the cloud as well.
Over.

Wilco, observatory. Sounds crazy
to me, bombing a cloud. Over.

- Do as you're told! Over.
- Yes, sir. Out.

Stand by, everyone.
The target is that cloud.

I'm going in to
take another look.

Now all we can hope is these wall
will stand the heat of those bombs.

Well, we shall know soon enough.

I'm gonna try a high
level attack first.

Here we go.

Steady.

Steady.
To your right.

Visual on.
Steady.

Bombs away.

Standby for low level attack.

Oh, Wilde, tell the villagers
they can go down the
mountain any time they'd like.

Yes, sir.

How about a breath of fresh air?

- I'd love a breath of fresh air.
- Come on.

Well, Sarah, doesn't look
as though you'll have to
worry about her any longer.

- No, it doesn't.
- Cigarette?

Well, Alan, for the
first time in weeks,

the Trollenberg is
free from cloud.
