Mountain Shark (2024) Movie Script
1
Hold on.
No!
Can't be.
Jennifer.
You need to get down here quick.
Are you sure?
The tracking device
has been activated.
The only problem is it's
not picking up its location.
It must have been
damaged somehow.
You think it's still alive?
Well, there's nothing
natural out there
that could take it out.
Hell, we built it to survive.
My only guess is the tracker
must have been
deactivated somehow.
Jesus, if it's still out
in the open like that,
there's no telling what
carnage it could create.
There's no other choice.
We have to terminate it.
You're serious.
And how do you
propose we do that?
We bring in trained soldiers.
Military who experienced in
taking down advanced weaponry.
This whole project is
supposed to be kept hidden.
Then we won't tell them
what they're hunting.
If we play this right, we
can keep them off the scent.
At least until the
inevitable time comes.
And then what happens?
Then we reveal it
for what it is.
An experiment that
got out of control.
How you doing, you twat?
Good to see, prick.
Yeah, how are you?
God, I'm trying
to find this place
without a signals a
fucking nightmare.
Mm-hmm.
Looks like we're
gonna have to navigate
this the old fashioned way.
Have they even told us
what the fuck we're
looking for yet?
Have they fuck.
Brooks, if anyone was to
be given a map, it'd be me
'cause I've proven myself
to be a leader in every
situation I've been in.
Really?
I don't think you've ever
mentioned this before.
Winters, you agree
with me, don't ya?
We shouldn't even be here.
This whole thing is suspect.
What are you on about?
There's nothing to be
scared of out here.
Funny place to be loitering.
Well, at least we here on time.
We were just trying to make sure
we didn't stray from the map.
Why did you get given a map?
I'm the same rank as you.
Let's be honest.
You're not the same rank as me.
It's just a fucking map.
Yeah, don't get your
knickers and a twist, mate.
Come on.
You've got a job to do.
So, uh, which way is this base?
That way.
Other side of the hills.
They'll be there.
Right.
Let's go then.
I'm gonna lead the way.
You all right?
I've got a bad
feeling about this.
Yeah, honestly, I'm not
feeling great myself about it.
But we're together now, yeah?
So strong as a unit.
Come on.
Why are you wearing trainers?
Oh, fuck off.
Major Hawkes.
We were worried we'd have
to come looking for you.
Well, it would've
be more beneficial
if we had more than one map.
Shut up.
I'm pleased to meet you all.
We were very keen
to get you in once we'd
looked at your track records
in this field and we both agreed
that you were exactly
the right people
that we needed for this mission.
Who's we, ma'am?
Myself and Dr. Eric Nesbitt,
who heads up the
research program here.
Both of us have
been stationed here
since the base was closed down.
Yes, we were interested
to know why that happened.
Yeah, and what we're hunting.
I mean, we haven't
been told anything.
Don't worry.
We'll answer all of your
questions in due time.
But for now, if you'd
like to follow me.
So you're saying it
just escaped on its own?
That's right.
How?
Well truth is, during
our experiments,
we trained it to
think for itself.
That's what makes
it so dangerous
and that's why we
need to take it down
before it wreaks
havoc out there.
It sounds more like some
kind of animal than a weapon.
Yeah, could you give us
some more information on
what we're against?
It'd be good to
have some specifics
before we go running
around hunting this thing.
I'm afraid that's not possible.
As you now all know,
the weapon has a
conscious mind of its own.
And the more knowledge
that you have of it,
the quicker it will learn
to use that against you
and eliminate you
all one by one.
This is Dr. Eric Nesbitt,
our head of research.
It's a pleasure to meet you all.
Even though the base
is inactive now,
there's still a great amount
of confidential documentation
that I'm responsible
for keeping secure.
And whilst I do
this, Dr. Nesbitt
can continue to
further our research.
Makes sense I guess.
So as it's getting
late, we'll prepare you
with all of your equipment
first thing in the morning.
But for now, best for
you to get early night.
We'll need you all to be ready.
You do.
What are
you doing in here?
Major, I, uh, I got lost.
Lost enough to be rifling
through private documents.
I was just curious.
I didn't see anything
confidential.
Everything here is confidential,
which is why you
shouldn't be in this room
or any other that we
haven't authorized.
Yes, ma'am.
I won't do it again.
See that you don't.
These will be your only means
of communicating back to us.
So anything happens you
let us know immediately.
Everyone clear on that?
Everyone understand
what she just said?
Yes, yes.
Brooks?
Yes, Walker, I
heard what she said.
Good.
Make sure to keep
this on at all times.
It's a tracking device.
It'll help you pick up
the weapons location.
And believe me, you will
need to be prepared.
We'll be ready.
Well, it goes without saying,
but be careful out there.
I do not say that lightly.
So stay vigilant and
good luck to you all.
Anything here?
All this unoccupied land
we could be tracking
for a while.
Geez.
How do we know if
we've gone too far?
When we
run out of food.
Fuck.
Well, if the shit hits the fan,
we can always kill
and eat Walker.
You seem anxious, Winters.
Don't think I'm cut out
for this of thing anymore.
That's bullshit.
You don't feel the rush of
being on the front line.
Going face to face with danger.
I've seen enough of danger.
I just wanna go live
a, a simple life.
You gotta be joking.
Mate, you gotta do whatever
feels right for you, okay?
It's your life.
Don't let anyone else
tell you how to live it.
You haven't faced a big
enough challenge here,
that's the problem.
Trust me, when you do
and you overcome it,
you'll be hungry for more.
I don't understand why
we've not seen any sign
of this thing yet in
all this open space.
Maybe it's a stealth weapon.
Well what's it doing then?
Hiding behind the rock?
-Fuck.
-Holy shit.
What the hell happened?
What the fuck are
we up against here?
Walker to base.
This is Walker to base.
Do you read me?
Over.
This is Major
Hawkes receiving you clearly.
Over.
Major Hawkes, we've got
some good news and bad news.
The good news is we found
this tracking device.
The bad news is it's not
attached to the weapon.
It's not there?
Nope.
It must have got rid
of the tracking device
when it was busy mutilating
these bodies were found.
You found bodies.
What's left of them, yeah.
Christ.
So what do you want
us to do with them?
Because if you want
us to bury them,
we're gonna need a shovel.
And even if we've got a shovel,
it's gonna take too long.
We need one of
the bodies back at the base
so that we can carry
out an autopsy.
An autopsy?
Why do we need an autopsy?
It's
like I said before,
the weapon has a
mind of its own.
We need to find out if
its patterns have changed
and that way it'll be easier
to take out its defenses.
To clarify, you want us
to bring the body
back to the base?
Not all of you.
We still need to
track down the weapon.
So we'd only need one or
two of you to bring it back.
I'll do it.
I'm done.
I don't wanna be
doing this anyway.
It's best if I take it back.
How are you gonna carry it?
I've got some body bags,
you know, just in case.
Never the optimist,
aren't you, Winters?
Thanks
for volunteering.
It'll be useful
for our research.
The rest of you'll have to carry
on without the tracker now,
but if you find anything,
call it in immediately.
Over.
We will.
I'll lead the way.
Over and out.
Winters, I can come with you.
No, I specified going alone.
I'm only gonna slow you down.
This is insane.
We've been searching all day.
I mean, do we even know
this thing's even out here?
I'd say the corpses are
a bit of a giveaway.
Yes, but that could
have happened days ago,
which means this thing could
be a hundred miles away by now.
Yeah, it feels like we've
been walking that far already.
Yeah, let's call it a night
and set up camp
before it gets dark.
Fine by me.
Right as squadron leader,
I'm gonna supervise whilst
you guys set up camp.
Right, let's get on with it.
You okay?
Yeah.
You know, I just
kind of feel like
I'm not prepared
enough for this.
You guys, you know you've,
you've seen a lot
worse than this shit.
Trust me, it doesn't
make it any easier.
You've got to just
detach yourself from it
and the more you experience
the easier it will be.
Yeah, I guess.
There's something else as well.
Back at base, I
went into this room
and I found these documents
of sea creatures and weaponry.
I had no idea what they, the
two had to do with one another.
It just seemed fucking
strange, you know?
Sea creatures?
Yeah, it just
seems really strange.
Anyway, it's getting dark,
let's set up our camp.
Oh, shit.
Winters to Walker, come in.
Oh, shit.
Shit.
I don't know why you're
finding this so difficult?
Well, are you gonna
help me or what?
No, you need to learn.
This reminds me when me
and my dad went camping
and he'd set up a tent and
it'd be beautiful inside
and he'd make me set up my tent
and if I didn't set up
my tent, I'd freeze.
So you've done
your army training,
you've gone through
all the tests.
Apparently now you need
to learn to set up a tent.
Oh, can you just fuck off?
Hey guys, calm down, all right?
We're on the same team here.
I'm not on the same team as her.
Like she can't
even set up a tent.
What use are you in the army?
You shouldn't even
be in the army
if you can't set
up a fucking tent.
Can't do something so simple.
You know what?
I think we all know
who's the one here
who shouldn't be in the army.
What do you mean by that?
You are the only one
out of all of us here
who's left a man behind to die.
How dare you bring that up.
All right, you weren't there.
You don't even
know what happened.
I know exactly how it went down
because I know what you're like.
Oh yeah.
Well I'd like to know
how you would've reacted
if you were there.
You act like you're
so fucking brave,
but you haven't got a clue
what you do when
the shits going down
and you've got no time
to make a decision!
Winters to Walker.
Winters to Walker.
Winters to Walker.
I wonder how Jim's doing.
Oh yeah, I tried to
contact him on the radio,
but it was just
spitting out static.
The radios aren't working.
No, it doesn't look like it.
That's not good.
We're already vulnerable
out here enough as it is.
Are you scared?
Don't be scared.
You know, you've just
gotta keep your gun close
and if you hear anything,
make sure your finger's
on the trigger.
Okay, work rules.
Oh.
Fuck it.
Hello there.
Oh, fuck.
Sorry if I startled you.
What the fuck?
Who the fuck are you?
Sorry, I just saw your tent
so I thought I'll
come and say hello.
Why did you think that?
Hope I didn't wake you.
Of course you woke us up.
It's the middle of
the fucking night.
Sorry, I just haven't seen
many people around here.
Yeah, okay, get out of here.
Fair enough.
Fuck.
Some people fuckin' lunatic.
Fuck.
Jesus.
Good morning.
Did you sleep well?
What are you doing here?
I thought I'd make
you some breakfast.
You know, to kind of make up
for startling you last night.
Brooks.
Right, what's going on here?
You!
Whoa, whoa, whoa.
Hands up.
Hands up.
My name's Larry.
I was hiking in the area when
I came across your campsite.
I just wanted to make
you some breakfast
as a kind of peace offering.
Pretty intrusive, isn't it?
Pretty weird too.
What do you do with those?
We're all an army
drill in the area.
Oh, I thought you
with that man I saw.
Why?
I saw a man yesterday
carrying a large bag
over his shoulder.
It looked like a body,
but mind you my
eyesight's not that great.
It was probably a
tent bag or something.
The other thing I saw.
What other thing?
You're probably gonna think
I'm crazy when I say this,
but I swear I saw a shark
fin moving along the top
of the rocks just over there.
A shark fin?
I know it sounds mad but I
know I didn't imagine it.
I've heard all of
weird things going on
around these parts recently.
People going missing.
That weapon's base carrying
out all sorts of tests.
Makes you wonder if it's
something to do with them.
Surely that's not
what we're here for,
to kill a weaponized shark.
Those documents I found
about the aquatic species.
Well, what do
you mean aquatic species?
Back at base,
I found all these fuckin'
documents about like sea creatures
and weapons and.
You gotta be joking, right?
No.
Winters, are you receiving?
Over.
Oh mate, they're not working.
What is going on here?
I think it's coming.
Lock and load!
Get ready!
Get ready!
No bullets!
We're firing fucking blanks!
Run!
Help!
Help!
Come on!
Let's go!
Go, go, go!
Oh, thank you.
Take it easy.
Don't put any weight on it.
What the hell was that?
I think it was a shark.
Yes, Brooks, I know
it was a shark.
But what I wanna know
is what's it doing
out in the mountains
when it should be right out
there in the fucking sea?
What are you doing
all back here?
Well sorry we've
inconvenienced you
but we've just been
out there running away
from a killer shark.
-Oh.
-Oh.
What do you mean?
Don't pretend you
don't know about it.
You are the one that sent
us out there to kill it.
All right, there's
no point keeping
any more information from you.
You know what it is now,
and I hope you can
appreciate why we had
to keep it all a secret.
I don't think it's
gonna stay a secret
for very long, do you?
And what we don't
understand is why.
Why what?
Why you would turn a
fucking shark into a weapon!
It was
originally planned
as a project for the navy.
An unsuspecting sea creature
that could attack enemy subs,
battle cruisers from beneath.
And then during the
stages of our research,
we proposed an idea for a weapon
that could fight on
both land and sea.
A hybrid breed of warfare.
It was set to be
the most advanced
and versatile piece of
weaponry ever created.
That was until it escaped.
And we were hoping if you
were able to take it out,
that we could wrap
this whole thing up
and avoid anyone
else getting hurt.
Not to cause a fuss but
my knee is really fucked.
We really need to
get a first aid kit.
There's one in
that cupboard over there.
Okay, I'll get it.
You really shouldn't have
brought it back here.
Now that it knows where we are,
it'd be out there
looking for us.
Well, we would've killed
the fucking thing,
but our guns were firing blanks.
What?
Yeah, when we were
trying to shoot,
there were no
bullets in our gun.
It really feels like someone
wanted us to fail our mission.
But I don't understand.
Eric supplied you
all with everything.
He wouldn't have put in
the wrong ammunition.
You're right.
I never did.
Eric, what are you doing?
Get back!
All of you get back.
You get up.
Move, come on!
I made no mistake.
I put in exactly
what I intended to.
You put blanks in the guns.
Of course I couldn't
risk them hurting it.
What are
you talking about?
I couldn't believe it
when I heard you say it,
that you wanted to
destroy the greatest thing
that we have ever created.
What we spent all
those years perfecting.
Perfecting?
Eric, that thing is dangerous.
It's completely out of control.
That's because we
haven't trained it yet.
But now we have a chance to.
We could teach you how to combat
against different targets.
Targets?
Yes.
The ones we have right here.
You're not serious.
I'm deadly serious.
We have a chance to
improve its skills,
to make it learn how to
combat against each of you.
This is our playing field
to prepare it for warfare.
And what better way to do that
then against real soldiers.
So then it's ready
to be used in battle.
Eric, this is insane.
We brought them here to kill it.
Not to send them out like
lambs to the slaughter.
That's what you wanted.
But I always planned to get
them here for this very reason.
I just went along
with what you wanted
to get them here
in the first place.
Now here you are.
Everything's worked
out perfectly.
Shall we make a start?
Eric, please.
Hands up.
Who wants to go first?
I said hands up!
Now we know who's
in control here.
Everybody get down
on your knees.
Do it.
Come on!
You down!
I said down on your knees.
I can't.
My knee's fucked.
Yeah.
You're right.
You're the weakest one here.
So that means we
can use you first.
We start with a
vulnerable target.
Then we it up from there.
You're not gonna make me
go out there, are you?
I can't walk.
Here.
You can use this.
Eric, please don't do this.
Shut up!
Now you get up and
head over to the door.
But I-
Or you could choose
to die right here.
I'm always in need
of a fresh cadaver.
All right.
Don't make him do this.
He won't stand a
chance out there.
What does that matter?
This is all for a greater cause,
to get our weapon up to
its maximum potential.
Once it's fully developed
it can be indestructible.
Now move.
What is that?
It's a tracking device.
It will let me
know where you are
and when you've been terminated.
Terminated?
You didn't actually think
you were gonna make it
to freedom now did you?
Now move.
But where am I gonna go?
Anywhere.
Try and make it to
civilization if you wish.
Yeah, let's see how far you get.
Larry, hide, okay?
Don't let it find you.
That's a good idea.
A perfect way to train
up its tracking skills.
Yeah, you can find a
nice place out there.
Our first target
has been eliminated
and in record time.
Looks like a fishy friend
now has a taste for blood
and it's on the war path.
You killed him.
Correction.
I might have been
responsible for his death,
but I didn't kill
him personally.
There's a difference.
There's no difference,
you fucking psycho.
Please, I'm a scientist.
I have no interest
in your morality.
You're wrong.
A true scientist
cares about morality.
They care about right and wrong
'cause without it you're
just fucking inhumane.
Well, you know what?
I decided not long ago
that I really don't care
about humans anymore.
That the animal kingdom
has a far greater role
to play in this world
than mankind ever did.
And you know what my plans are?
I plan to use those
animals to destroy mankind.
Nation by nation.
Starting right here today,
you're to be part of history.
The last chapter in humanity.
Eric, what's happened to you?
This is not who you are.
You're acting like a
completely different person.
Wait, please tell
me you didn't test
those brain experiments
on yourself.
I had to.
I passed a few harmless
electromagnetic waves
through the old cerebral
cortex and it worked.
I've never felt so focused.
And whatever the hell you've
done has sent you insane.
No, I'm just trying to make
things right in the world.
So shall we move on?
Who are we going to choose next?
Clearly none of you are as weak
as our dear deceased
limping friend,
but we still need to
have some vulnerability.
Which one of you
has shown weakness?
It could be something physical
or even a flaw in their
mental well being.
Something like a
superiority complex.
What?
Me?
Yes, you.
I ain't got a
superiority complex.
I'm afraid you do.
I've been observing
you ordering everyone
around when you are
not the one in command.
Taking control of
everyone's decisions.
It all adds up.
I'm a natural leader.
All right, there's
nothing wrong with that.
Afraid it's more than just that.
I sense you were carrying
something from the past,
perhaps guilt of some kind.
Something you did in the army.
Something you just can't
forgive yourself for.
You see weakness
and that's why you're
next to go out there.
I ain't gonna do it.
Is that so?
Yeah.
You can threaten me all you like
'cause do you know what?
I know you are bluffing
'cause you haven't got the balls
to pull that trigger yourself.
I guess you're right.
Am I bluffing now?
In case you didn't hear
me before, you're next!
-All right.
-Go.
Where's my weapon?
Your weapon can be your
natural leadership qualities.
Eric, no, you can't send
him out without a weapon.
He won't stand a chance.
He'll be fine.
He's a soldier.
You should be prepared
for any situation.
Now get going.
Walker.
What?
Good luck out there.
Thanks.
Ah, come on.
Come on, savage.
Eat me you fucker.
Come on you fucker.
Come on.
Yeah, come on.
Get here, you piece of garbage.
You fucking piece of shit.
Ah!
Another heat signature
has gone gold,
Which means target number
two has been eliminated.
Such a shame.
I rather thought he would've
lasted a little longer.
Shall we move on to
our third target?
Do we have any volunteers?
Or would you like me
to choose for you?
Am I talking to myself here?
I'll go.
How very noble of you.
And we should
reward such bravery.
And indeed I shall reward it.
Therefore you will be
testing out its defenses.
Are you actually
gonna give me that
or is this some kind of joke?
No joke.
I told you we need
to prepare the weapon
for the battlefield.
So it has to learn how to defend
against different weapons.
I mean, if you really
want to test its defenses,
maybe you should give me a gun.
I think we all know
why I wouldn't do that.
I'm a scientist, not a moron.
Why you looking at
me with such hatred?
I'm not the reason
why you're here.
What does that mean?
I'm not the
one with the secrets.
What?
Now you get up.
Don't even think about
trying anything with it.
Or I'll shoot your friends
right here and now,
allowing them some time
to bleed out first.
Make sure you get some
good use out of it.
I'll make good use of it.
First I'm gonna kill
your little pet.
Then I'm gonna come back here,
I'm gonna shove this
down your throat
and I'm gonna cut out
your fucking heart,
you fucking psycho!
A living autopsy.
I'm looking forward to it.
Brooks, please don't do this.
I need to do this.
If I don't go out there
and kill this thing,
it's gonna get you.
I won't let that happen.
When I'm done, I'll
come back for you.
I won't leave you behind.
Oh, for fuck sake
just get going.
I've got another three
here to send out.
Don't worry, I'll get
this right back to you.
Good news, everyone.
Target number three
has been eliminated.
Paige.
Isn't that wonderful?
That proves that the
weapon is really learning.
It's fought against an
armed soldier and won.
It shows it's making
real progress.
So let's not give it
any time to regroup.
I think we should move
on to our next challenge.
Training it against two targets.
Eric, this has to stop.
You can't keep doing this.
We're already halfway
there, Jennifer.
It would be madness to stop now.
But think about this.
If you kill all
of us, what then?
What do you plan to do?
I've already told you my plans.
It's not my fault
if you don't listen.
So you're gonna take the weapon
and use it in war to
wipe out the human race.
-Correct.
-And how do you plan
to do that?
You and I both know it
can't be controlled.
It's one thing to send out
people one by one to be killed.
But when you try to come
to tame it for yourself,
you're not gonna stand a chance.
And I just know that
in spite of everything
that you've done,
you are just not
in your right state of mind.
I know that you could
still see reason.
Oh Jennifer, I
really am enjoying
your desperate attempt
to try and stop me.
The thing is, all that does
is show me your true colors,
how weak and pathetic
that you really are.
Eric, please.
And the thing is,
we're meant to be increasing
the threat to the weapon.
So you can see why I
have no use for you now.
Which makes you redundant.
Ah.
How emotional.
You look like you have
something you want to say.
Go on, say it.
I won't stop you.
Let it out how you feel.
No?
Nothing?
All right then.
Shall we carry on
where we were before?
Ah yes.
Together.
Were you really gonna leave
without saying goodbye?
Fuck.
Oh, you fucks!
You tried to fucking
melt my skin off.
You're fucking getting
it, you fucking bitches.
Fucking hell.
You think you'll get far do you?
Well, there is no
freedom for you!
My baby.
Hey, where you going?
We need to get to my car.
Reid.
Reid, would you fucking speak?
I knew about Hawkes.
I knew about Nesbitt.
I knew about that fucking
creature and their experiments.
I know Hawkes.
She said if I brought team
and I was successful,
she would promote me.
I didn't know it was this bad.
I'm sorry.
I'm sorry.
Reid!
Reid, Reid!
Come on, come on!
Come here!
Come at me!
You stupid shark!
Fuck you!
Come on, come on!
Go, go!
Come on.
Come on!
Come on, come on.
Paige!
Murphy!
Oh my God.
What happened?
Stuff.
I thought you were dead.
You know nothing could kill me.
Right.
We need to get back to my car.
Where's Reid?
She didn't make it.
Come on.
We need to go.
Fuck.
What the fuck?
Fuck.
What the fuck?
This fucking thing isn't
starting.
Fuck.
This fucking engine.
Paige, are you okay?
I'm scared.
It's okay.
It's fine.
You'll be all right.
Okay.
Gonna go and fix the engine.
Gina.
Gina.
Gina.
Hold on.
No!
Can't be.
Jennifer.
You need to get down here quick.
Are you sure?
The tracking device
has been activated.
The only problem is it's
not picking up its location.
It must have been
damaged somehow.
You think it's still alive?
Well, there's nothing
natural out there
that could take it out.
Hell, we built it to survive.
My only guess is the tracker
must have been
deactivated somehow.
Jesus, if it's still out
in the open like that,
there's no telling what
carnage it could create.
There's no other choice.
We have to terminate it.
You're serious.
And how do you
propose we do that?
We bring in trained soldiers.
Military who experienced in
taking down advanced weaponry.
This whole project is
supposed to be kept hidden.
Then we won't tell them
what they're hunting.
If we play this right, we
can keep them off the scent.
At least until the
inevitable time comes.
And then what happens?
Then we reveal it
for what it is.
An experiment that
got out of control.
How you doing, you twat?
Good to see, prick.
Yeah, how are you?
God, I'm trying
to find this place
without a signals a
fucking nightmare.
Mm-hmm.
Looks like we're
gonna have to navigate
this the old fashioned way.
Have they even told us
what the fuck we're
looking for yet?
Have they fuck.
Brooks, if anyone was to
be given a map, it'd be me
'cause I've proven myself
to be a leader in every
situation I've been in.
Really?
I don't think you've ever
mentioned this before.
Winters, you agree
with me, don't ya?
We shouldn't even be here.
This whole thing is suspect.
What are you on about?
There's nothing to be
scared of out here.
Funny place to be loitering.
Well, at least we here on time.
We were just trying to make sure
we didn't stray from the map.
Why did you get given a map?
I'm the same rank as you.
Let's be honest.
You're not the same rank as me.
It's just a fucking map.
Yeah, don't get your
knickers and a twist, mate.
Come on.
You've got a job to do.
So, uh, which way is this base?
That way.
Other side of the hills.
They'll be there.
Right.
Let's go then.
I'm gonna lead the way.
You all right?
I've got a bad
feeling about this.
Yeah, honestly, I'm not
feeling great myself about it.
But we're together now, yeah?
So strong as a unit.
Come on.
Why are you wearing trainers?
Oh, fuck off.
Major Hawkes.
We were worried we'd have
to come looking for you.
Well, it would've
be more beneficial
if we had more than one map.
Shut up.
I'm pleased to meet you all.
We were very keen
to get you in once we'd
looked at your track records
in this field and we both agreed
that you were exactly
the right people
that we needed for this mission.
Who's we, ma'am?
Myself and Dr. Eric Nesbitt,
who heads up the
research program here.
Both of us have
been stationed here
since the base was closed down.
Yes, we were interested
to know why that happened.
Yeah, and what we're hunting.
I mean, we haven't
been told anything.
Don't worry.
We'll answer all of your
questions in due time.
But for now, if you'd
like to follow me.
So you're saying it
just escaped on its own?
That's right.
How?
Well truth is, during
our experiments,
we trained it to
think for itself.
That's what makes
it so dangerous
and that's why we
need to take it down
before it wreaks
havoc out there.
It sounds more like some
kind of animal than a weapon.
Yeah, could you give us
some more information on
what we're against?
It'd be good to
have some specifics
before we go running
around hunting this thing.
I'm afraid that's not possible.
As you now all know,
the weapon has a
conscious mind of its own.
And the more knowledge
that you have of it,
the quicker it will learn
to use that against you
and eliminate you
all one by one.
This is Dr. Eric Nesbitt,
our head of research.
It's a pleasure to meet you all.
Even though the base
is inactive now,
there's still a great amount
of confidential documentation
that I'm responsible
for keeping secure.
And whilst I do
this, Dr. Nesbitt
can continue to
further our research.
Makes sense I guess.
So as it's getting
late, we'll prepare you
with all of your equipment
first thing in the morning.
But for now, best for
you to get early night.
We'll need you all to be ready.
You do.
What are
you doing in here?
Major, I, uh, I got lost.
Lost enough to be rifling
through private documents.
I was just curious.
I didn't see anything
confidential.
Everything here is confidential,
which is why you
shouldn't be in this room
or any other that we
haven't authorized.
Yes, ma'am.
I won't do it again.
See that you don't.
These will be your only means
of communicating back to us.
So anything happens you
let us know immediately.
Everyone clear on that?
Everyone understand
what she just said?
Yes, yes.
Brooks?
Yes, Walker, I
heard what she said.
Good.
Make sure to keep
this on at all times.
It's a tracking device.
It'll help you pick up
the weapons location.
And believe me, you will
need to be prepared.
We'll be ready.
Well, it goes without saying,
but be careful out there.
I do not say that lightly.
So stay vigilant and
good luck to you all.
Anything here?
All this unoccupied land
we could be tracking
for a while.
Geez.
How do we know if
we've gone too far?
When we
run out of food.
Fuck.
Well, if the shit hits the fan,
we can always kill
and eat Walker.
You seem anxious, Winters.
Don't think I'm cut out
for this of thing anymore.
That's bullshit.
You don't feel the rush of
being on the front line.
Going face to face with danger.
I've seen enough of danger.
I just wanna go live
a, a simple life.
You gotta be joking.
Mate, you gotta do whatever
feels right for you, okay?
It's your life.
Don't let anyone else
tell you how to live it.
You haven't faced a big
enough challenge here,
that's the problem.
Trust me, when you do
and you overcome it,
you'll be hungry for more.
I don't understand why
we've not seen any sign
of this thing yet in
all this open space.
Maybe it's a stealth weapon.
Well what's it doing then?
Hiding behind the rock?
-Fuck.
-Holy shit.
What the hell happened?
What the fuck are
we up against here?
Walker to base.
This is Walker to base.
Do you read me?
Over.
This is Major
Hawkes receiving you clearly.
Over.
Major Hawkes, we've got
some good news and bad news.
The good news is we found
this tracking device.
The bad news is it's not
attached to the weapon.
It's not there?
Nope.
It must have got rid
of the tracking device
when it was busy mutilating
these bodies were found.
You found bodies.
What's left of them, yeah.
Christ.
So what do you want
us to do with them?
Because if you want
us to bury them,
we're gonna need a shovel.
And even if we've got a shovel,
it's gonna take too long.
We need one of
the bodies back at the base
so that we can carry
out an autopsy.
An autopsy?
Why do we need an autopsy?
It's
like I said before,
the weapon has a
mind of its own.
We need to find out if
its patterns have changed
and that way it'll be easier
to take out its defenses.
To clarify, you want us
to bring the body
back to the base?
Not all of you.
We still need to
track down the weapon.
So we'd only need one or
two of you to bring it back.
I'll do it.
I'm done.
I don't wanna be
doing this anyway.
It's best if I take it back.
How are you gonna carry it?
I've got some body bags,
you know, just in case.
Never the optimist,
aren't you, Winters?
Thanks
for volunteering.
It'll be useful
for our research.
The rest of you'll have to carry
on without the tracker now,
but if you find anything,
call it in immediately.
Over.
We will.
I'll lead the way.
Over and out.
Winters, I can come with you.
No, I specified going alone.
I'm only gonna slow you down.
This is insane.
We've been searching all day.
I mean, do we even know
this thing's even out here?
I'd say the corpses are
a bit of a giveaway.
Yes, but that could
have happened days ago,
which means this thing could
be a hundred miles away by now.
Yeah, it feels like we've
been walking that far already.
Yeah, let's call it a night
and set up camp
before it gets dark.
Fine by me.
Right as squadron leader,
I'm gonna supervise whilst
you guys set up camp.
Right, let's get on with it.
You okay?
Yeah.
You know, I just
kind of feel like
I'm not prepared
enough for this.
You guys, you know you've,
you've seen a lot
worse than this shit.
Trust me, it doesn't
make it any easier.
You've got to just
detach yourself from it
and the more you experience
the easier it will be.
Yeah, I guess.
There's something else as well.
Back at base, I
went into this room
and I found these documents
of sea creatures and weaponry.
I had no idea what they, the
two had to do with one another.
It just seemed fucking
strange, you know?
Sea creatures?
Yeah, it just
seems really strange.
Anyway, it's getting dark,
let's set up our camp.
Oh, shit.
Winters to Walker, come in.
Oh, shit.
Shit.
I don't know why you're
finding this so difficult?
Well, are you gonna
help me or what?
No, you need to learn.
This reminds me when me
and my dad went camping
and he'd set up a tent and
it'd be beautiful inside
and he'd make me set up my tent
and if I didn't set up
my tent, I'd freeze.
So you've done
your army training,
you've gone through
all the tests.
Apparently now you need
to learn to set up a tent.
Oh, can you just fuck off?
Hey guys, calm down, all right?
We're on the same team here.
I'm not on the same team as her.
Like she can't
even set up a tent.
What use are you in the army?
You shouldn't even
be in the army
if you can't set
up a fucking tent.
Can't do something so simple.
You know what?
I think we all know
who's the one here
who shouldn't be in the army.
What do you mean by that?
You are the only one
out of all of us here
who's left a man behind to die.
How dare you bring that up.
All right, you weren't there.
You don't even
know what happened.
I know exactly how it went down
because I know what you're like.
Oh yeah.
Well I'd like to know
how you would've reacted
if you were there.
You act like you're
so fucking brave,
but you haven't got a clue
what you do when
the shits going down
and you've got no time
to make a decision!
Winters to Walker.
Winters to Walker.
Winters to Walker.
I wonder how Jim's doing.
Oh yeah, I tried to
contact him on the radio,
but it was just
spitting out static.
The radios aren't working.
No, it doesn't look like it.
That's not good.
We're already vulnerable
out here enough as it is.
Are you scared?
Don't be scared.
You know, you've just
gotta keep your gun close
and if you hear anything,
make sure your finger's
on the trigger.
Okay, work rules.
Oh.
Fuck it.
Hello there.
Oh, fuck.
Sorry if I startled you.
What the fuck?
Who the fuck are you?
Sorry, I just saw your tent
so I thought I'll
come and say hello.
Why did you think that?
Hope I didn't wake you.
Of course you woke us up.
It's the middle of
the fucking night.
Sorry, I just haven't seen
many people around here.
Yeah, okay, get out of here.
Fair enough.
Fuck.
Some people fuckin' lunatic.
Fuck.
Jesus.
Good morning.
Did you sleep well?
What are you doing here?
I thought I'd make
you some breakfast.
You know, to kind of make up
for startling you last night.
Brooks.
Right, what's going on here?
You!
Whoa, whoa, whoa.
Hands up.
Hands up.
My name's Larry.
I was hiking in the area when
I came across your campsite.
I just wanted to make
you some breakfast
as a kind of peace offering.
Pretty intrusive, isn't it?
Pretty weird too.
What do you do with those?
We're all an army
drill in the area.
Oh, I thought you
with that man I saw.
Why?
I saw a man yesterday
carrying a large bag
over his shoulder.
It looked like a body,
but mind you my
eyesight's not that great.
It was probably a
tent bag or something.
The other thing I saw.
What other thing?
You're probably gonna think
I'm crazy when I say this,
but I swear I saw a shark
fin moving along the top
of the rocks just over there.
A shark fin?
I know it sounds mad but I
know I didn't imagine it.
I've heard all of
weird things going on
around these parts recently.
People going missing.
That weapon's base carrying
out all sorts of tests.
Makes you wonder if it's
something to do with them.
Surely that's not
what we're here for,
to kill a weaponized shark.
Those documents I found
about the aquatic species.
Well, what do
you mean aquatic species?
Back at base,
I found all these fuckin'
documents about like sea creatures
and weapons and.
You gotta be joking, right?
No.
Winters, are you receiving?
Over.
Oh mate, they're not working.
What is going on here?
I think it's coming.
Lock and load!
Get ready!
Get ready!
No bullets!
We're firing fucking blanks!
Run!
Help!
Help!
Come on!
Let's go!
Go, go, go!
Oh, thank you.
Take it easy.
Don't put any weight on it.
What the hell was that?
I think it was a shark.
Yes, Brooks, I know
it was a shark.
But what I wanna know
is what's it doing
out in the mountains
when it should be right out
there in the fucking sea?
What are you doing
all back here?
Well sorry we've
inconvenienced you
but we've just been
out there running away
from a killer shark.
-Oh.
-Oh.
What do you mean?
Don't pretend you
don't know about it.
You are the one that sent
us out there to kill it.
All right, there's
no point keeping
any more information from you.
You know what it is now,
and I hope you can
appreciate why we had
to keep it all a secret.
I don't think it's
gonna stay a secret
for very long, do you?
And what we don't
understand is why.
Why what?
Why you would turn a
fucking shark into a weapon!
It was
originally planned
as a project for the navy.
An unsuspecting sea creature
that could attack enemy subs,
battle cruisers from beneath.
And then during the
stages of our research,
we proposed an idea for a weapon
that could fight on
both land and sea.
A hybrid breed of warfare.
It was set to be
the most advanced
and versatile piece of
weaponry ever created.
That was until it escaped.
And we were hoping if you
were able to take it out,
that we could wrap
this whole thing up
and avoid anyone
else getting hurt.
Not to cause a fuss but
my knee is really fucked.
We really need to
get a first aid kit.
There's one in
that cupboard over there.
Okay, I'll get it.
You really shouldn't have
brought it back here.
Now that it knows where we are,
it'd be out there
looking for us.
Well, we would've killed
the fucking thing,
but our guns were firing blanks.
What?
Yeah, when we were
trying to shoot,
there were no
bullets in our gun.
It really feels like someone
wanted us to fail our mission.
But I don't understand.
Eric supplied you
all with everything.
He wouldn't have put in
the wrong ammunition.
You're right.
I never did.
Eric, what are you doing?
Get back!
All of you get back.
You get up.
Move, come on!
I made no mistake.
I put in exactly
what I intended to.
You put blanks in the guns.
Of course I couldn't
risk them hurting it.
What are
you talking about?
I couldn't believe it
when I heard you say it,
that you wanted to
destroy the greatest thing
that we have ever created.
What we spent all
those years perfecting.
Perfecting?
Eric, that thing is dangerous.
It's completely out of control.
That's because we
haven't trained it yet.
But now we have a chance to.
We could teach you how to combat
against different targets.
Targets?
Yes.
The ones we have right here.
You're not serious.
I'm deadly serious.
We have a chance to
improve its skills,
to make it learn how to
combat against each of you.
This is our playing field
to prepare it for warfare.
And what better way to do that
then against real soldiers.
So then it's ready
to be used in battle.
Eric, this is insane.
We brought them here to kill it.
Not to send them out like
lambs to the slaughter.
That's what you wanted.
But I always planned to get
them here for this very reason.
I just went along
with what you wanted
to get them here
in the first place.
Now here you are.
Everything's worked
out perfectly.
Shall we make a start?
Eric, please.
Hands up.
Who wants to go first?
I said hands up!
Now we know who's
in control here.
Everybody get down
on your knees.
Do it.
Come on!
You down!
I said down on your knees.
I can't.
My knee's fucked.
Yeah.
You're right.
You're the weakest one here.
So that means we
can use you first.
We start with a
vulnerable target.
Then we it up from there.
You're not gonna make me
go out there, are you?
I can't walk.
Here.
You can use this.
Eric, please don't do this.
Shut up!
Now you get up and
head over to the door.
But I-
Or you could choose
to die right here.
I'm always in need
of a fresh cadaver.
All right.
Don't make him do this.
He won't stand a
chance out there.
What does that matter?
This is all for a greater cause,
to get our weapon up to
its maximum potential.
Once it's fully developed
it can be indestructible.
Now move.
What is that?
It's a tracking device.
It will let me
know where you are
and when you've been terminated.
Terminated?
You didn't actually think
you were gonna make it
to freedom now did you?
Now move.
But where am I gonna go?
Anywhere.
Try and make it to
civilization if you wish.
Yeah, let's see how far you get.
Larry, hide, okay?
Don't let it find you.
That's a good idea.
A perfect way to train
up its tracking skills.
Yeah, you can find a
nice place out there.
Our first target
has been eliminated
and in record time.
Looks like a fishy friend
now has a taste for blood
and it's on the war path.
You killed him.
Correction.
I might have been
responsible for his death,
but I didn't kill
him personally.
There's a difference.
There's no difference,
you fucking psycho.
Please, I'm a scientist.
I have no interest
in your morality.
You're wrong.
A true scientist
cares about morality.
They care about right and wrong
'cause without it you're
just fucking inhumane.
Well, you know what?
I decided not long ago
that I really don't care
about humans anymore.
That the animal kingdom
has a far greater role
to play in this world
than mankind ever did.
And you know what my plans are?
I plan to use those
animals to destroy mankind.
Nation by nation.
Starting right here today,
you're to be part of history.
The last chapter in humanity.
Eric, what's happened to you?
This is not who you are.
You're acting like a
completely different person.
Wait, please tell
me you didn't test
those brain experiments
on yourself.
I had to.
I passed a few harmless
electromagnetic waves
through the old cerebral
cortex and it worked.
I've never felt so focused.
And whatever the hell you've
done has sent you insane.
No, I'm just trying to make
things right in the world.
So shall we move on?
Who are we going to choose next?
Clearly none of you are as weak
as our dear deceased
limping friend,
but we still need to
have some vulnerability.
Which one of you
has shown weakness?
It could be something physical
or even a flaw in their
mental well being.
Something like a
superiority complex.
What?
Me?
Yes, you.
I ain't got a
superiority complex.
I'm afraid you do.
I've been observing
you ordering everyone
around when you are
not the one in command.
Taking control of
everyone's decisions.
It all adds up.
I'm a natural leader.
All right, there's
nothing wrong with that.
Afraid it's more than just that.
I sense you were carrying
something from the past,
perhaps guilt of some kind.
Something you did in the army.
Something you just can't
forgive yourself for.
You see weakness
and that's why you're
next to go out there.
I ain't gonna do it.
Is that so?
Yeah.
You can threaten me all you like
'cause do you know what?
I know you are bluffing
'cause you haven't got the balls
to pull that trigger yourself.
I guess you're right.
Am I bluffing now?
In case you didn't hear
me before, you're next!
-All right.
-Go.
Where's my weapon?
Your weapon can be your
natural leadership qualities.
Eric, no, you can't send
him out without a weapon.
He won't stand a chance.
He'll be fine.
He's a soldier.
You should be prepared
for any situation.
Now get going.
Walker.
What?
Good luck out there.
Thanks.
Ah, come on.
Come on, savage.
Eat me you fucker.
Come on you fucker.
Come on.
Yeah, come on.
Get here, you piece of garbage.
You fucking piece of shit.
Ah!
Another heat signature
has gone gold,
Which means target number
two has been eliminated.
Such a shame.
I rather thought he would've
lasted a little longer.
Shall we move on to
our third target?
Do we have any volunteers?
Or would you like me
to choose for you?
Am I talking to myself here?
I'll go.
How very noble of you.
And we should
reward such bravery.
And indeed I shall reward it.
Therefore you will be
testing out its defenses.
Are you actually
gonna give me that
or is this some kind of joke?
No joke.
I told you we need
to prepare the weapon
for the battlefield.
So it has to learn how to defend
against different weapons.
I mean, if you really
want to test its defenses,
maybe you should give me a gun.
I think we all know
why I wouldn't do that.
I'm a scientist, not a moron.
Why you looking at
me with such hatred?
I'm not the reason
why you're here.
What does that mean?
I'm not the
one with the secrets.
What?
Now you get up.
Don't even think about
trying anything with it.
Or I'll shoot your friends
right here and now,
allowing them some time
to bleed out first.
Make sure you get some
good use out of it.
I'll make good use of it.
First I'm gonna kill
your little pet.
Then I'm gonna come back here,
I'm gonna shove this
down your throat
and I'm gonna cut out
your fucking heart,
you fucking psycho!
A living autopsy.
I'm looking forward to it.
Brooks, please don't do this.
I need to do this.
If I don't go out there
and kill this thing,
it's gonna get you.
I won't let that happen.
When I'm done, I'll
come back for you.
I won't leave you behind.
Oh, for fuck sake
just get going.
I've got another three
here to send out.
Don't worry, I'll get
this right back to you.
Good news, everyone.
Target number three
has been eliminated.
Paige.
Isn't that wonderful?
That proves that the
weapon is really learning.
It's fought against an
armed soldier and won.
It shows it's making
real progress.
So let's not give it
any time to regroup.
I think we should move
on to our next challenge.
Training it against two targets.
Eric, this has to stop.
You can't keep doing this.
We're already halfway
there, Jennifer.
It would be madness to stop now.
But think about this.
If you kill all
of us, what then?
What do you plan to do?
I've already told you my plans.
It's not my fault
if you don't listen.
So you're gonna take the weapon
and use it in war to
wipe out the human race.
-Correct.
-And how do you plan
to do that?
You and I both know it
can't be controlled.
It's one thing to send out
people one by one to be killed.
But when you try to come
to tame it for yourself,
you're not gonna stand a chance.
And I just know that
in spite of everything
that you've done,
you are just not
in your right state of mind.
I know that you could
still see reason.
Oh Jennifer, I
really am enjoying
your desperate attempt
to try and stop me.
The thing is, all that does
is show me your true colors,
how weak and pathetic
that you really are.
Eric, please.
And the thing is,
we're meant to be increasing
the threat to the weapon.
So you can see why I
have no use for you now.
Which makes you redundant.
Ah.
How emotional.
You look like you have
something you want to say.
Go on, say it.
I won't stop you.
Let it out how you feel.
No?
Nothing?
All right then.
Shall we carry on
where we were before?
Ah yes.
Together.
Were you really gonna leave
without saying goodbye?
Fuck.
Oh, you fucks!
You tried to fucking
melt my skin off.
You're fucking getting
it, you fucking bitches.
Fucking hell.
You think you'll get far do you?
Well, there is no
freedom for you!
My baby.
Hey, where you going?
We need to get to my car.
Reid.
Reid, would you fucking speak?
I knew about Hawkes.
I knew about Nesbitt.
I knew about that fucking
creature and their experiments.
I know Hawkes.
She said if I brought team
and I was successful,
she would promote me.
I didn't know it was this bad.
I'm sorry.
I'm sorry.
Reid!
Reid, Reid!
Come on, come on!
Come here!
Come at me!
You stupid shark!
Fuck you!
Come on, come on!
Go, go!
Come on.
Come on!
Come on, come on.
Paige!
Murphy!
Oh my God.
What happened?
Stuff.
I thought you were dead.
You know nothing could kill me.
Right.
We need to get back to my car.
Where's Reid?
She didn't make it.
Come on.
We need to go.
Fuck.
What the fuck?
Fuck.
What the fuck?
This fucking thing isn't
starting.
Fuck.
This fucking engine.
Paige, are you okay?
I'm scared.
It's okay.
It's fine.
You'll be all right.
Okay.
Gonna go and fix the engine.
Gina.
Gina.
Gina.
