Original subtitles

Yo, Washington.

You're pushing the old girl too hard.

There's oil all over the place down there.

Let me take the wheel.

I know this area pretty well.

All them rocks out there.

Go down there and wake up them peaceniks.

Do it gently.

Yes, sir.

Hey man, time to shake your sleepy head.

Miss?

Get ready to walk on dry land again.

All right.

Good morning, bless.

Ready for it?

Shit!

Washington!

You are in restricted waters.

You have 30 seconds to come about.

Jesus, what is this?

And clear the area.

Tell him no fuel.

No, let's try the empty water jug.

Right.

You can replenish your fresh water supplies

at the small island 15 miles to the east port.

You now have 25 seconds.

Go out there and show a little cleavage.

Jesus, Lee.

God, they're from E-CHEM.

Hey peaceniks get your asses in here on the double.

All right, all right, we'll go to that other island.

I knew something was wrong.

We getting the hell outta here.

What?

What's that?

Hey man.

Captain,

you got paid to take us to this island,

so why don't you just finish your job?

The job's finished.

You take us there, or we get our money back.

You know well I spent half the money on fuel and supplies.

Yeah, we saw your supplies.

Hey, it's not my fault that the bastards

tried to sink my boat.

And for that much little lady, you can swim to the island.

Just try not to stir up the sharks too much, okay?

This is really risky for a little girl like you.

Hell, I've got more balls than both of you.

Okay.

Give us this rubber boat.

You know what we're trying to do to those bastards?

I don't give a good goddamn

what you're trying to do with 'em.

And as for the rubber dinghy,

it'll cost you another 1000.

A thousand dollars for this flabby junk.

It doesn't even have a motor.

What? A motor?

You only have 1000.

With a motor it'd be 5,000.

Let's turn this old lady around.

Let's get the hell outta here.

Yes, sir.

Hey, you know damn well that's all the money we have.

Give him the money.

It will hurt your karma, you know.

He didn't even count it.

Didn't have to.

Anyway, it's 10 times the price.

Ya on there, Colonel?

Colonel, Ali's on the line for you.

Yeah, Ali.

Yeah, you were right.

Those characters are so Greenpeace,

you can smell the chlorophyll a mile away.

Just make sure they go and don't come back.

Understand, Ali?

Yeah, roger and out Colonel.

Now listen to you two.

Keep your heads down and your eyes open.

These E-CHEMers are nobody's fools.

Good luck.

Thank you for the warning, anyway.

Let's get moving.

It's truly active.

The plant should be on one side of the mountains,

and the village on the other side, maybe there.

Let's leave all that stuff here.

Might be a sign for a search team.

Are you afraid?

Yeah.

Come on.

Look out.

Hello, me Datu.

Friend.

Hi Datu.

Me Jane.

Did Dr. Van Velder, the missionary, send you?

Yes, come, I take you to him.

No, not there.

It's magic.

What are they doing?

Sumak, the volcano god, has big devil inside.

We make ceremony for devil to go away.

But I thought you were Christians here.

Very Christian, like you.

Good magic is good for our gods, no?

Well?

The gas pressure's still rising, Colonel.

The lava's at a hot point.

It's almost reached maximum.

Any chance of a serious eruption?

I'd say we're nearly in the middle of one right now.

Where's Dr. Geoffrey?

At the waste disposal plant.

Call him right now.

You got it.

No, nevermind.

I'll get it myself.

Take a reading.

Yes.

Did you stop the unloading process?

Of course, take a look.

Can you read a Geiger counter?

Everything was about to blow sky high.

Well, in case you've forgotten,

I'm the one that gives the orders around here.

Just pretend you gave the order,

and thank God if you believe in Him.

All I have to do is make one phone call to Houston

and your ass is outta here.

Houston? It's a long way away.

They don't understand or maybe they just don't want to.

Your barrack room report certainly never helps.

It'll be wiser to insist that they close this place.

We're dumping radioactive waste into the volcano.

We're creating a bomb of enormous power.

We can control it.

Yeah, you're kidding yourself

if you think you're gonna control a volcano.

We're sending pure energy into space.

Christian, number three, well.

What three sounds are mentioned

in which verse in the Bible?

The answer is the sound of roaring from the city.

The sound from the temple.

The sound of the the Lord

repaying his enemies their desserts.

Isaiah 66, verse 6.

We will now have some singing.

Welcome at last.

Good boy Datu.

Reverend Van Velder?

Well, I'm not Dr. Livingston.

I'm Jane, and this is Lee, our cameraman.

Please come upstairs.

We must thank the Lord that you arrived safely.

We heard some gunshots a while ago.

This way.

It's a shame really, what was once such a beautiful place

is slowly being destroyed by these people.

Please come in, take a seat.

Eat, drink. You'll need plenty

of nourishment to keep your strength up.

- Thanks, we just ate. - No thank you.

A refreshing drink then, perhaps?

That'd be nice.

Have you given any thought to how we can get into the plant

without being stopped?

Yes, I have.

And I hope my plan works.

In about half an hour.

Reverend, can you tell us anything at all

about the inside of the plant?

Very little.

You see, it was the unusual secrecy

surrounding this operation that first aroused my suspicions.

You mean you don't think they're really decontaminating

the waste material being shipped here?

No.

I've had previous experience of such things.

They've been using this whole archipelago

as an atomic testing ground for years.

We'll need proof if we're to get E-CHEM closed down.

Have any of your congregation

suffered any of the effects of radiation?

Fortunately not.

You see most of the population has moved to other islands.

Only a few have remained.

And I must find a way of evacuating them

if things get any worse.

And the volcano, how long has it been active?

Practically since E-CHEM built their plant here.

And I'm sure it's no coincidence.

But didn't you try talking to the authorities

before you got in touch with us?

Of course, and I was very persistent,

but it seems that E-CHEM bought more than just the island,

if you get what I mean.

Got it.

Father, they're coming.

All right, now you know what you have to do, don't you?

Sure.

This is it, get ready.

Two of the tribesmen will come along with the truck

as borders.

Stop.

Stop. There is American beer in there.

You can make a fortune in town.

Where is this beer?

Over there.

The snake hunter hasn't come yet.

So you could have some.

Good, maybe he finally got bitten by one.

Go check the load then let's pick up some beer.

You, come along with me.

Hey, let's hurry it up in there.

Hurry up what?

Pick up this stuff, we're leaving.

All right. All right.

Looks like this is our lucky day.

About goddamn time, we could use one.

You're a genius.

Hey, why don't you come with us?

Really?

Sure.

Okay, shake a leg, kid.

All aboard.

Lord, please help them.

- Here we go again. - Yeah.

This is the supply truck,

and we've got a lot of surprises.

Get ready to open the gate.

We must be there.

So it's settled then.

If they see us, we separate.

Okay.

We meet at the beach

where the boat is supposed to pick us up.

Dr. Shearing of the Engineering Department,

please call station 305 of physics lab.

Dr. Shearing of the Engineering Department,

please call station 305 of physics lab.

Hey, thanks for the beer.

Now go to the kitchen and get something to eat.

Yes, thank you.

Over there, over there.

They're actually producing electricity.

I guess the geothermal plant is the perfect cover

if you're trading in the hot stuff.

Let's get going.

It's through that corridor.

Thanks.

Be a good boy.

Get it?

How's it going?

It's looking better, Colonel.

Gas pressure, lava temperature,

almost back to normal.

Okay, start the dumping process again.

You know, Colonel, Dr. Geoffrey.

Hey, forget about Dr. Geoffrey.

I'm running this operation, now.

Bastards.

So this is how they decontaminate the waste.

Maybe they're running outta steam

and they're using it for firewood, huh?

- Closer, closer. - Yeah.

I can't believe it.

They're just dumping it all straight in the volcano.

This is the solution.

Remember Detroit?

When you used one of those bulldozers

against the scabs in the Teamsters strike?

You really wouldn't be out of character,

if you were just to step inside and waste this place.

I'd love to,

but this time with this tape,

I want the whole world to know

what kind of fucking criminals

these E-CHEM people really are.

Okay.

Anyway, I'm glad to be going.

With the radioactivity around here,

even your balls are gonna disintegrate in no time.

You're too kind.

That seems to be a way out.

Okay, let's try it.

Call Houston.

Same message, Colonel?

Yeah, word for word, and ask for reply.

Now let me know when it comes through.

Sure will.

The decontamination chamber.

It takes a minimum of two minutes.

Hey Bob, it's your turn today.

My turn tomorrow.

Colonel Kovacks, Colonel Kovacks.

We've got an emergency.

Two intruders in the decontamination tunnel right now.

Shit, they spotted us.

Better split up.

See you at the beach.

Okay.

Right here somewhere.

Hurry up and find 'em, goddamn it!

You guys about finished loading that stuff?

Two more seconds, Sarge.

Well, move your asses for Christ's sake.

I gotta get this crate off the ground 10 minutes ago.

Who is it?

A man and a woman.

They were using a video camera.

Goddamn it.

Security, this is Kovacks.

We got a man and a woman on the premises with a TV camera.

Now listen to me.

I want that camera and I want that tape.

I know.

If you can't capture them, kill them.

You think that's a wise policy

for the good name of our company?

Get outta here, Geoffrey.

You've been drinking.

You're damn right I have.

You had the dumping started up again, you lunatic.

Read this.

What is it?

Orders from Houston.

It's all in my hands now.

They must be even crazier than you are.

What do any of you know about nuclear physics?

This is Hansen, Sir.

Carlos wants to speak to you.

Shall I patch him in?

Go ahead Hansen, I've got a copy on you.

This is Carlos, sir.

I have a progress report.

Yeah?

We got the man.

He tried to escape into the jungle.

We also have the camera, but there is no tape inside.

This is Hansen, your patch fell through.

I've got another one for you, now repeat your message.

We got our hands on the man sir.

He was trying to make his way into the jungle.

You copy that Colonel?

Yeah, Hansen I copy.

Bring the boy here.

What about the girl?

No sign of her, sir.

Sending out a search party now.

Find her, goddamn it.

Will do sir.

Alive.

We'll take her any way we can get her.

Helicopter one, come in.

Read ya.

Any sign of the girl?

No sign of her, Colonel.

I'm heading out toward the water.

What about the guy?

We got the guy,

but the girl got past the guards at the pass.

Okay, got it.

I'll comb the pass.

Yeah, you do that, and listen Ali,

you promised me those Greenpeace people

would be out of here.

Don't you fuck up like that again.

Can you hear me, Ali?

Yeah, you got anything?

Nah, nothing yet.

Coming in the swampy area near the waterfall.

Keep going in the same direction.

I'll come down and have a look.

Hey!

Jesus Christ.

Shoot!

To kill?

Yeah, what do you think dummy,

she's getting away.

Come on.

Where the fuck is she?

Can you see where she's gone, Ali?

Right in front of your nose, dumbbell.

Listen, asshole, I told you already.

Don't call me dumbbell.

Then don't act like one, flea brain.

Hey Ali, you really think you're some kind of

hard-nosed, tough ass son of a bitch, don't you?

Right on, fathead,

and I got a clutch of bowling trophies to prove it.

Yeah, yeah, you can talk real big

when you're a mile up in the sky

and I can't get at you, right?

Why don't you push down button on that

elevator and come over here.

There she is!

Let's get her.

Shoot her!

Let's go!

Go!

Don't move!

After 'em, get after 'em!

Down!

Could I ask you a question?

What did you do to make those guys so angry?

Leave 'em to me.

I'll see you later.

Come on.

You okay?

Buck shot.

Get 'em!

Move.

Hey look.

Bastard!

Go.

You hear me, dumbbell?

Yeah, I can hear you, you fat shit.

They're heading towards the cave.

Down there. Hurry up.

Look, it's coming this way.

Move!

Bastards got me.

I'm losing oil.

Can you hear me, dumbbell?

They're all yours.

We're heading back to base.

Quick, come on, get down there.

Get 'em.

Do you think you can make it?

We'll be fine if we make a run for it.

That's for sure.

Let's go.

Over there.

I'm Bob.

Jane.

Okay, Jane.

Move your ass.

Where?

Over there.

Go inside.

Son of a-

- What's the matter now?

What did I do to deserve you?

We have no time, come on.

Come on, move it.

Stick close to me and we'll be all right.

Bob, will we...

Shh.

I saw their tracks, they're in there.

Drake to base.

Drake to base.

Colonel, can you hear me?

Yeah, go ahead Drake.

I got a copy.

We got 'em trapped.

The girl's with the snake hunter.

Snake hunter?

He never gave us any trouble before.

Listen Drake,

you're gonna be in trouble if you don't find that girl,

because she's got the tape, or at least knows where it is.

Stop.

Keeping the snakes right with tobacco now.

Watch.

Come.

Bastards.

When we shoot this American, he'll blow us to bits.

He won't have a chance if we gas him first.

Well what are you waiting for?

I'll go first.

Start climbing.

Move it kid.

Can you hear that pretty little hissing sound?

There are so many snakes down there,

we'd need a whole tobacco plantation to keep them away.

Move it.

Oh Jesus.

Come on.

Come on, move.

If they get out through another exit,

Kovacks will have our balls for breakfast.

Look out!

Stop fucking with me.

Watch out, there's snakes everywhere.

Ali, no!

Oh Jesus!

Oh Jesus!

Ali!

Ali!

Goddamn it, they're all over the place.

Ali?

Ali?

Fuckers!

Ah, you fuckers.

You fuckers.

What are you doing?

Taking a look down there.

All you have to do is tell me where that tape is,

you'll be outta here.

Oh, come on man.

You know what's going on in this plant.

This has to stop.

Okay, Greenpeace is gonna make that tape public.

But you're not gonna lose your job.

Your company will be back in business.

But this time, legally.

E-CHEM has nothing to hide.

Yeah, sure.

Why are you so concerned about that tape then?

Son,

I'm gonna give you until tomorrow morning

to tell me where that tape is.

If I don't get an answer by then,

you're gonna wish to God you were dead

when I get through with you.

Almost ready.

So am I.

Hey Bob, you never told me what you're doing here.

I'm a snake farmer.

You're kidding.

For the poison.

The pharmaceutical industry calls it venom,

and pays very well for it.

They use it in serums.

Maybe you're not kidding.

I'm from New York, how about you?

LA.

How can someone from the city live out here?

I hate traffic.

I hate the Rams.

Hmm? Come on, eat.

You twisted my arm.

What is this?

Try it and see what you think.

Even if it's snake, I'll eat it.

I'm starving.

Pretty good.

It's not right.

Here I am, having dinner by candlelight

while poor Lee is going through,

who knows what kind of hell?

Who is this Lee?

Your boyfriend?

He's my cameraman, just my cameraman.

Nothing else.

But ever since we were in college together,

he's been hoping.

You seem to have a lot of admirers.

Don't be afraid of Blossom, he's a pal.

Say hello to the nice lady, Blossom.

I send out helicopters, special squads.

I lose a hell of a lot of goddamn men,

and you can't even find a fucking snake hunter and a girl.

What's the matter with you, you losing your balls?

Now you listen to me.

At first light,

I want you out there in the jungle looking for 'em,

see if I made it to the village, you understand?

Yeah, later for that.

Right now I'm wasted and I'm gonna hit the sack.

Later, my ass.

Hey listen, you'll sleep when I tell you to sleep.

Now get your out there and fix that fuckin' helicopter.

I want it up tonight, you understand?

Do it!

This one has enough poison in it to knock out a buffalo.

Give me a hand, will you?

Me?

He won't to eat you.

Get hold of its tail.

So, when do we leave to rescue Lee?

We could do it quickly together.

I've always minded my own business

and never had any trouble with those guys,

until you came along.

No go.

They're so mad right now, thanks to you.

It's obviously time to beat a hasty retreat.

So I have no intention

of going looking for trouble with you.

I'm going back,

even if I have to go alone.

That's entirely up to you.

We'd be willing to pay for your help.

Now that you mention it, you owe me some money already.

I do?

That cartridge belt I lost back there in the jungle,

was full of vials of poison.

Took months to collect it all.

I was on my way down to the village to sell them

when I found you.

Do you realize how time consuming it is to milk snakes?

You'll get your damn money,

but what kind of a man are you?

I believe I told you what those E-CHEM people are up to.

Yeah, you told me.

Just think, today you saved my life.

Don't remind me of that.

Okay,

relax,

be nice.

All you need now is-

- Don't touch me, you a snake squeezer.

You're all alike.

Men like you think you're real men

just because you've got a pair of balls.

Oh, I could kill you.

You, what did you say your name was?

Ah yes, Bob.

Well Bob, you make me sick.

Now what was it you said I'd be needing?

I just meant that you should have a few hours of sleep.

If we stand any chance of getting into that place,

we should start early.

We?

We, mademoiselle.

You mean?

Yes.

Oh Bob, you're a,

you're a.

Snake squeezer?

Oh and an angel.

Hey hey hey, get a grip on yourself.

My glasses are fogging up.

Come on.

We have to cover as much ground as possible

before it gets too light.

Okay.

You do know which way to go, don't you?

Got the Michelin guide.

Where's the nearest three-star restaurant?

Colonel, we've got a lot of problems this morning.

Gas pressure is 80% over normal.

What caused it?

I don't know yet.

Last night something came down into the lake.

Couldn't even track it on radar,

too fast to get anything on it.

What the hell was that?

Radioactive for one thing.

The instruments have been going crazy since it came down,

and it's all coming from the lake.

I did send Joe on down there with the diving team.

They're waiting for your word.

Good.

Joe, this is Kovacks.

You got a copy?

Yeah, Colonel.

That goddamn flaming thing fell right into the lake.

Right now, we've equipped and are sending out

a couple of divers in a boat.

Start the operation,

'cause we'll be right out to you with a helicopter, okay.

Maybe it's a meteorite.

I wouldn't count on it if I were you.

Or it could be a manmade satellite.

They've been known to go out of orbit before,

but they usually give a warning when that happens.

I don't know if it'd be worth your while Kovacks,

a committee nosing around under your feet

at a time like that could be awkward.

You know what a bunch of shitheads

your military buddies can be.

Take a look at this.

What the hell do you want?

Look at those figures.

This is an immense mass of pure energy,

but it isn't activating the volcano,

it's activating all the waste being melted down.

Valve 2, condition B, standing by for instructions.

Steam pressure's too high.

Open release valves 6, 13, 11, and 8.

Steam pressure's till too high.

Open release valves 9, 12 and 17.

Opening release valves as ordered.

Down there.

- So long. - Go Jimmy.

What the hell do you think it is?

That's just what Kovacks wants to know.

So what'd you tell him?

That I'm gonna squirt so much fucking exogene

up that thing's ass, it's gonna burst.

You really have a lot of guts

going down there to look at it.

That baby Kovacks scares me more, I tell ya.

I know what you mean.

I'm going with them.

Better keep your eyes open.

Pressure is diminishing, sir.

Pressure diminished.

What are we waiting for?

There's too much going on down there.

So?

Look, for once in your life,

stop telling me what to do, will you?

You only trust yourself, right?

You're pretty good at asking questions,

but you never say anything about yourself,

who you are, for example.

You really wanna know?

I teach physics.

I'm single, Catholic, Anglo-Saxon,

and I don't trust men who milk snakes.

Need anything else?

Yeah,

a large slice of luck, come on girl.

The smoke from those stacks

will be our cover while we get in.

How do we find him, once we're inside?

There's a compound behind the main building,

an infirmary and some little rooms.

That's where I'd keep a prisoner if I had one.

Oh, you're so smart.

There.

We can do it, it's a pretty close thing.

Nolan, don't forget.

Get that camera set up, okay?

You got it.

UDT4 to base,

we are proceeding to 50 foot level as ordered, over.

Oh yeah?

You think you got a problem?

I'm here alone.

Nah, he's being a good boy.

He kept me hopping last night though,

wanting to know what all the action was

and what did it turn out to be?

A UFO.

Are you out of your mind?

What the fuck would a little green man want

in this shithole?

Yeah okay, talk to you later.

Did you put poison on those darts?

Just enough to paralyze for a while.

It won't kill him.

I know he's here.

Lee?

Speak to me.

Oh Lee, what have they done to you?

Lee?

What's in that shot?

They gave him a shot?

Ah Christ.

More than one.

All personnel return to your posts.

Emergency conditions are over.

The camera.

Do you know where the thing is, the tape?

No.

No.

I'll tell

nobody.

Nobody.

DT4 proceeding according to instructions.

Wait, there's something strange there.

Going over to get a better look.

Looks like, uh...

rocks.

Joe, can you hear me?

Just a second, Colonel.

Jesus Christ,

that's the weirdest thing I've ever seen.

I'm not sure there's something strange.

UGT, port of base.

UGT, port of base.

I don't like the looks of this one little bit.

I'm getting my ass out of here.

Preparing to surface, preparing to surface!

Christ.

I can't believe it, Colonel.

I think something happened.

Shit!

It's burning him, sir. Oh my God!

Down there.

What the fuck's going on?

Pull yourself together, Ellis.

Gotta get him onboard!

God.

Listen to me Colonel, the thing's moving.

It's moving toward the camera,

and there's part of it here in the boat.

I think it's some kind of claw, Colonel.

Take it down.

What?

I said, take it down.

Colonel, some days you can be a real son of a bitch.

Fear's contagious, you gotta nip it in the bud.

Firefighting group

proceed to dockside immediately.

Firefighting crew proceed to dockside immediately.

All other personnel stay clear of the area.

Come on.

This way.

Emergency procedure code six,

emergency procedure code six.

Firefighting unit proceed to dockside immediately.

Firefighting unit proceed to dockside immediately.

Let's try to get through the steam exhaust

into the jungle.

We'll try to get into the caverns down there.

Don't touch, don't remove anything.

Don't even get near it.

Leave it there. - What is it?

It looks like a kind of claw.

Good, we need some evidence to send back to Houston.

Okay, but first I need to make an examination of that thing.

In here.

Lee?

Lee, can you hear me?

Where did you hide the tape?

Oh, please Lee, where?

The decontamination chamber.

I put it on top.

Sure, sure, when we split up.

Not far from the entrance.

We've gotta go back for it.

You've gotta be joking.

No, I'm not joking.

Colonel, the prisoner escaped.

The guard got knocked down by poison.

Jesus Christ, go look for him.

Mac, Roundtree, move it.

Here.

Have some water.

Stay here and don't move, okay?

I'm coming, I'm okay now.

Forget it.

We'll be back soon.

Look out, we're in a patrolled area here.

What the hell is going on?

Jesus, look!

Watch out!

What was that?

I don't know.

It's like an earth boring machine or something.

- Are you okay? - My ankle.

Come on.

Let's go.

Wait for me.

Lee, Lee!

Lee, what the hell is it?

Bob, where are you?

Jesus.

Bob, I can't stand it, make it go away.

It's gone, it's gone!

The danger is gone, the danger is over!

It's gone!

Lee, Lee!

Oh Lee.

Oh my God.

Don't put anything on it.

Leave it open.

What's that?

An antidote to snake bite.

But it's also a pretty good tranquilizer.

Try to relax, Lee.

What was that?

What was that thing?

I just don't know.

It's something I didn't believe could exist on this Earth,

but I still don't.

An alien?

An alien.

I've tried everything.

Electric charges, every chemical.

I even think we could bombard it with plutonium,

but have no effect.

And you know why?

This peculiar kind of claw

was created in a high concentration of energy.

The sun?

No, it comes from much farther away.

What kinda life we talking about?

Androids, robots, huh?

Something much stranger, biochemical life.

Living cells and muscles made of an unknown base metal.

Call Houston Kovacks, we are in grave danger.

Hell with Houston.

I just veered that thing into a ton of rock.

How's your foot?

It's better now.

We'll rest here for a while.

Try to keep off your feet, now.

But we've got to get Lee to a doctor.

That's why we're going to rest here.

We'll carry him down to the village

as soon as it's a little bit darker.

Okay guards, put every available man on this.

Everybody, I want those spying son of a bitches found.

Kovacks?

What the hell do you want?

Haven't you arranged our departure yet?

You're insane.

You're not defending some ridge in Vietnam, now.

This isn't fucking Vietnam, okay?

But I said I'd stop the Greenpeace bastards, and I will.

Colonel, the thing,

it came out of the lake and then moved underground.

Where?

It seems to be heading east toward the plant.

Moving pretty quick too.

All right, go back to you post and keep your mouth shut.

Yes sir.

Still afraid E-CHEM will get into the papers?

I do what I'm paid to do.

Listen to me.

You can't stop that beast if he decides to attack.

Well, it's not acting like it had any specific objective.

Look,

it's trying to adapt its metabolism

to a different atmosphere.

And there's still all that enormous energy

in the atomic waste.

We have very little time left to escape.

Don't worry about it Geoffrey because this is war,

and that's something I know a lot about.

Guards, now listen to me carefully.

This is Kovacks,

I want you to mine the entire plant with exogene,

all the buildings, everything, now do it now.

We're gonna blow that son of a bitch to kingdom come.

Lee!

Don't move.

Don't touch it.

It's alive.

Can't you tell?

It lives.

Bob!

Bob?

It wants to live in you.

Stay away!

Stay where you are.

It'll infect you.

It'll infect all of us, stay there.

Stay there.

Don't you understand?

Lee, calm down.

Stop, stay there.

Lee.

Lee.

- Comb back. - Lee.

Get away from there.

No!

- Come back. - Lee.

All this for that goddamn fucking tape.

Now we'd better concentrate on saving our own lives.

That's all that matters.

Right?

Otherwise, he died for nothing.

Helicopters.

You know where they keep them.

It's our only hope.

Okay, this way.

Why'd you call me?

What the hell is that?

That's my secret weapon, to use for our guest.

It's a special gas that absorbs hydrogen.

Hydrogen?

Liquid hydrogen.

It can't live without it in our atmosphere.

That's why it goes underwater and underground

in damp surroundings.

Will it work?

Oh sure, I hope.

Well listen, we'll try my method first.

That exogene should go off like a small A-bomb.

And if it doesn't, we'll try that, all right?

We're going through the main transformer.

Isn't it dangerous?

What do we do now?

We have to wait till it lands.

We need a safe place to hide.

Hi.

Hi.

Where's the lady's room please?

Wait a minute, who the hell are you? What are you?

Shut up, if you know what's good for you.

Sure, sure.

Anything you say? Sure.

Anything you say. Be cool.

Ain't moving man.

Ain't moving.

What the hell is it?

Fuck.

Kader.

Hey you, come back here.

Open up!

- What is this? - I don't know.

Something came from that way.

I tried to shoot it, it went underground.

Ali!

Get inside.

Over there.

Get inside.

Hurry up for God's sake.

Hurry.

Move!

Wait for me.

Wait for me.

I'll show you the way.

Come on.

Let's get out over there.

Ali, this is Carlos.

Can you read me?

Yeah, what is it?

Something strange happened.

Is Colonel Kovacks with you.

We're landing right now.

Goddamn it.

Get that hose into place.

Move your asses!

Sir, sir,

we heard something was attacking the men at generator three.

Then nothing.

We tried to get in,

but the doors were sealed from the inside.

Whatever it was went underground.

Methane tanks exploded.

It was like it was moving in that direction.

Plant the exogene.

Yes sir.

You bring the men to me with a detonator, hurry up.

Do you think we'll be safe in here?

Let's just say it's our best chance.

Where are we?

The old construction yard.

Nobody comes here anymore.

God, what's this?

I can tell you that.

It's where they mixed the cement when they built the plant.

Where does it lead?

Straight into the mountain.

I insisted on this location.

Makes a good escape route.

So you're one of the E-CHEM people?

One of the worst.

And do you know what you and your people are doing?

We thought we'd be going on with this work

for another 20 years.

But goddamn it, you bastards.

Don't our children have a right to live

in as clean a world as we can give them?

I'm afraid that at the moment,

that's a secondary problem.

We have to concentrate on escaping.

Do you actually think it comes from space?

The alien? Of course.

It's here because it was attracted by the atomic waste.

Is there only one?

Please, one is more than enough.

Oh, the alien, hurry up!

Attention all E-CHEM personnel.

Open all gas valves and evacuate the plant.

Evacuate the plant.

Attention all personnel

in the engineering department,

orders have been given to evacuate the plant, on the double.

As far as I know, all the technicians are out sir.

All personnel are required to proceed

in an orderly fashion to the nearest exit.

This is not a drill, repeat, this is not a drill.

Let's get out of here.

Move, come on.

Jesus Christ, what are you waiting for?

Shut up.

Stand by to detonate.

Ready, sir.

That's right, come on.

Now!

Yeah.

The heat.

What does it mean?

The alien is getting closer, or maybe just passing.

There he is.

Christ.

God.

We're trapped.

Let's try to get out, over there.

Forget it, let's go.

Don't touch him.

We've gotta get higher.

Come back here.

Goddamn you, Colonel.

Come back here.

Jane!

Don't touch her.

Don't touch her.

Hurry, get into the decontamination chamber.

It's down there.

Straight to the right.

Please, go ahead.

That's it, to the right.

Now go.

Don't waste time.

Good.

Come on, punch the number code.

Ready? 6, 4, 5, 2, 1.

Go on, get inside.

And now?

Colonel, Colonel,

we've got the modified 203 with the chemical grenades.

Is it loaded?

Yes, Colonel.

Let's get outta here.

Back to the armory, go, go.

Turn loose, you son of a bitch.

No!

Don't put that on me!

Zero.

The decontamination is completed now.

Lee, that's where he hid it.

That's the place.

The what?

The decontamination chamber.

What the hell are you doing?

The tape.

The tape.

The tape.

Let's get out of here quickly, let's go.

Maybe we'll make it,

then you can show the world what we found here.

The tape.

Forget it, come with us.

I want the tape.

No.

Go on.

Give it to him.

Don't come any closer.

Geoffrey, if I don't stop this son of a bitch,

you're gonna get a chance to use your new toy.

Geoffrey,

your friends will be in the final disposal area.

Go.

That way, move, now.

And now we don't even have the tape.

And there's that horrible thing.

Oh no, Christ, it's closed.

Let's try the other door.

Stay away.

Maybe I can use one of those.

Now, make a run for it.

We'll both go.

Be careful.

Okay.

Here I go.

I'm here.

I'm here.

Hang on.

Go back.

Go back.

Hurry.

Go back.

Good shot, boy.

You must be on the right side.

That's gotta be the end of it.

It's gotta be finished.

We're safe.

Yeah, but if it was just a warning,

who would want to believe it?
