Ouija Castle (2024) Movie Script

1
- I am Princess Lily of Zilia.
You will untie me at once!
- You have no authority here, my dear.
And by the time I finish with you,
there'll be nothing
left for anyone to find.
- You called, Mother?
- We need to have the
discussion about your future.
- Mother, we have discussed
this over and over again.
- Your sister has left and
I'm not getting any younger.
You need to marry to form an
allegiance with another power
or we run the risk of ending
up like the Dura kingdom.
- I'm happy to be wed.
- You know why you cannot join with her.
- Why?
- Son, she has lost her status.
You have to take the
hand of a woman of value,
one that comes from a good
family and connections.
She is an orphan.
- What does that matter? I love her!
She loves me.
- I will not go in circles with you.
You need to solidify our raw lineage.
I'm sure she would agree,
she is aware of this.
- I don't want this.
I'll not be punished 'cause of traditions.
- One day you'll realize that being king
is not just about you,
but about your kingdom and their needs.
They come above your own.
- You're still young, Mother,
you're not going anywhere.
Why are you worrying about this now?
- Ruling is like having children.
I truly learned self-sacrifice
once I had you and your sister,
and I hope one day you
will learn the same.
I do not want you to rule on your own
like I or like King Alexander,
and we know how that ended.
- You're still here.
- One day I won't be.
I've arranged for Queen
Velma and her daughter
to come and meet you.
- The answer is still no.
- So it'll take my death for you to listen
and heed my warning?
This is not the end of this conversation!
- Hey!
- What was that for?
- I love you.
- I love you, too.
- Let's run away together.
- What has brought this on?
- My mother's broached the
topic of marriage again,
and I only want you.
- Edison.
- Don't say it.
- She's right and you know it.
- How can you say that?
Do you not love me?
Did last night mean nothing to you?
- Edison?
- We'll finish this conversation later.
- Would you help an old copper like me?
Perhaps you'll some of me fruit?
They're only a penny each.
- I'm sorry, I have no money of my own.
- A beauty like you surely
is not a lonely house.
- I used to be Princess Thalia
of the late King Alexander.
- Oh, well in that case,
these, have these script free of charge.
- Oh no, I mustn't deprive you.
- Oh, I exist.
- Thank you.
Let me repay the favor.
- Perhaps you could help
me find me way home.
- Of course.
- Here we are.
- You live here?
- Yes, been my family for generations.
- Do you live with her?
- Yes, that's my daughter, Sophia.
Come in for a cup of tea.
You can meet her.
- Oh, oh no, it's getting dark.
I really should be taking my leave.
- Oh, I insist to repay
you for all your kindness.
- And where have you been?
- Oh, hello, you must be Sophia
I'm Thalia.
- You have nice hair.
- Thank you.
I really should start heading back.
- Now, I know you are
Alexander's daughter.
I was working on something before he died.
- Oh, you just must see it.
It's a masterpiece.
- Come on.
Come.
- Just in here, dear.
- Go on, take a look.
- Oh, these are rare.
So where is the piece that
you made for my father?
- Why don't you take a
look behind that curtain.
Please.
Please, I don't want any trouble.
- Trouble?
No trouble at all my dear.
Just do as you're told.
Take a look.
- Please, please don't cut me.
- I got her bloody sweet.
- Thalia.
I miss you.
Ever since Thelma brought you
back to me, I've been praying.
I pray every day that you'll wake up.
The ladies are still growing.
I felt them move the other day.
- Gave me hope.
- Why couldn't you just run
away with me, like I said?
- This is where you are?
It's time for bed.
I am your fiance.
You should be spending the nights with me.
She is just a maid in a coma.
I am here.
- She's not just a maid.
- Sorry, I didn't mean to upset you.
- Why did you say it?
- I love you.
I just want you to love me back.
- I don't love you.
- Just give me a chance.
I'm so sure I can make you happy.
- How many times do I have to tell you?
The moment Thalia wakes
is the day you are gone.
I'll never love you.
- I call on you, All Dark One.
I hope you can hear me.
I need you once again.
- You summoned me?
- Thank you, all great one.
- Flattering me does not work.
What do you want?
- Syvia is the last
kingdom standing in my way
of having complete control over the land.
- I gave you the
power of eternal life.
I gave you the strength
of a woman half your age.
I gave you the gift of
beauty like your daughter.
I even helped move the young girl
into an endless sleep.
I've given you all these.
- At what cost?
- What more
could you possibly want?
- You may have given me
eternal life but I still age.
Why couldn't I have eternal beauty
- Even with my powers,
you can never disguise the
darkness that lurks within you,
no matter how hard you cry to hide it.
- What do you expect me to do?
The prince is still in love with Thalia,
and while the queen still reigns,
he will not wed my Sophia.
- Then you have your answer.
In return, I want a pure soul.
Otherwise, I'm going to take you.
You have until tomorrow
to deliver payment.
Is that clear?
- I don't understand.
- Who is it
that stands in your way?
- Queen Primrose.
To what do I owe this pleasure?
I want to talk to you
about this arrangement
between our two kingdoms.
- Yes, let's.
Bring some tea for me and the Queen.
- Oh, yes ma'am.
- What a wonderful pair our
two lovely children make.
- Although your daughter is wonderful
and I'm sure it would
be a great allegiance,
I cannot in good conscience allow them
to be joined in holy matrimony.
- I am sorry.
I don't understand.
- My son does not love her.
- And?
I did not love my husband,
but it was the right merger.
They will grow to love one another.
- Well, I did love my husband,
and as much as I want what
is right for the kingdom,
I cannot make my son
miserable in the process.
- Urge him to do the right thing.
- He will not love her
or learn to love her while
Thalia is still here.
Besides you were brought in to save her
and that is not happening.
- She will never
be of the same standing
as my daughter is.
- It is not important anymore.
She's clearly able to bear children,
and as far as my son is concerned,
he believes those babies are his.
I am sorry if this news upsets you,
but this marriage is not going
to go ahead under my watch.
- Under your watch, it shall,
just like your daughter.
- What do you mean by that?
- Where is your daughter, Primrose?
- She didn't want to take my
position so I had to let her go
and find her own path.
- And what path might that be?
- It is not fair for Edison
to take the responsibility
because I let her go.
Maybe she's had enough time
away and be ready to take over
once I pass.
- That won't happen.
- How do you know that.
- She isn't coming home?
- You do not know that.
Edison, when I tell him, will
search far and wide for her.
- He won't find her.
- What aren't you telling me?
- I thought I was making myself clear.
- Where is she?
What have you done with my daughter?
- Don't worry, you'll find her very soon.
- Where is she?
What?
What have you done to me?
- Don't fret.
Your kingdom is safe.
- No!
- Mummy, the prince is saying he refuses
to marry me because he doesn't love me.
This isn't fair.
- Calm down, sweetheart.
Now he shall have no choice.
- Hello, my darling.
How's your day been?
I hear the Prince came to visit you today.
That was nice of him, wasn't it?
But he doesn't care for
you like I do, does he?
Should we have a little look?
Oh wow.
Our babies are growing.
I think they will be born soon.
I can tell.
- Mother, mother it can't be.
- What is all this fuss about.
My son?
- Don't call me that.
- No boy should find his mother like this.
- Don't worry, mother.
Whoever has done this to you will rue
the day they crossed you.
- Come, take a seat.
Come, you're in shock.
We'll get some some water.
- Be quiet, you foolish girl.
Go and fetch the king some water.
- Did you just call me king?
- That's what you are.
- We haven't even buried her yet,
and all you can think about
is being on the throne.
- Sorry, I didn't mean anything by it.
- She's just in shock like all of us.
How could anybody subject your
mother to such a cruel fate?
- We all had dinner last
night and then we went to bed.
So when could this have happened?
- Someone poisoned her to weaken
her before they killed her.
It's in her tea.
Must have been the maid.
I'll snap her neck.
- Can't have the king going
around killing people.
It'll not look good.
- I can't let her get away with this.
- I will take care of the maid.
What will you do?
- It'll be handled discreetly.
No one will know.
You must concentrate on sending a message
to your kingdom's enemies.
- What can I do?
- You must marry Sophia.
- Oh, can't we right now,
so close to her death.
- That's exactly why.
It will bring the kingdom
together in celebration
instead of mourning.
We will show that nothing will weaken you.
- Plus, it'll show the
royal line is solidified
with the union of my strong kingdom.
- I need time to think.
This is all too much.
Will you be my wife?
- Yes, of course I will, my love.
- Sophia, take the king
out for some fresh air.
I shall take care of this mess.
- What are you crying about?
- I am so sorry, mom.
I know it's unprofessional of me.
- It's okay. Take a seat.
Let's talk.
- It is just, the queen's passing.
- Yes, it's sad state of affairs, indeed.
- I haven't seen anything
like it in my life.
- Yeah.
Shouldn't be so surprised.
- I'm so sorry but I don't understand.
- You caused her death.
- I did no such thing.
- You served us a tea last night, no?
- Tea wouldn't do this.
- No, but it could weaken her,
putting her in a state of
vulnerability to be attacked.
- I suppose.
But you had the same tea and
you're fine, so it couldn't be.
- You were the last
person to serve the tea.
It must have been you.
- I promise you, mistress,
I would never hurt her.
She was so kind.
She gave me a place when
I had nothing at all.
She was a just and fair queen.
- And you repaid her kindness
with such a treacherous end.
- You could've killed me!
Do you really believe you are
going to get away with this?
- Mistress, I would never--
- Shut your filthy, treasonous mouth.
I told you to be quiet.
If you not be silent on your end,
then I shall make you.
And finally you comply.
- My love, I have some tragic news.
The Queen has passed.
I know this hurts you.
But don't worry, my darling?
I'll protect you, as always.
She is awake.
She's awake, she's awake.
She's awake.
She's awake.
- She's awake.
- What?
I can't believe my eyes.
I must be dreaming.
Is it really you?
- I'm really here.
- I'm sorry about your mother.
The maids told me.
- It was sudden.
So is your waking.
Maybe it's a sign.
- A sign of what?
- Gods must have heard my prayers.
- How long have I been gone?
- Eight months.
Do you remember anything
about what happened to you?
- I remember walking
in an old lady's home.
- What old lady?
- I dunno.
I can't remember.
It's all so strange.
I dunno.
It's so much to comprehend.
- I know. It's okay.
- Just glad that you're back with me.
- Me too.
- What?
What?
- Nothing.
- Delia, do you believe in true love?
- True love is for
children and fairy tales.
- Well, I believe that Thalia's
Prince Edison's true love
and I think they deserve a
chance at real happiness.
- They very well may get it.
- But I know something
that might affect that
and I don't know if I should say.
- It is better we are seen and not heard.
- I have to tell someone.
I feel like this needs to be said.
- Well, what is it?
If I think it is important,
I will take it to the new mistress.
- Leland has been touching Thalia.
- I do not think this is wise to tell her.
- But the babies she's
carrying might be his.
- This is a very troubling thought,
- But the prince loves Thalia.
- This does not matter.
He's marrying Sophia.
Nothing will change that.
- Well, I don't think that's fair.
- This is the way things are.
- I think we need to tell her.
- Has the poor girl not
been through enough?
- But they do need to be told.
Leave it with me.
I will take it to the mistress
and we will have something done about it.
- What do you think she will do?
- Why do you concern
yourself with such things?
- I like Thalia and I feel sorry for her.
What are you two doing,
sitting around here
when there's work to do.
Get to it.
- Ma'am, may I speak
with you about something.
There has been some
chatter amongst the maids
and the information that
has come to my attention,
it's very disturbing.
- Pray tell.
- It is about Thalia.
- What about her?
- Leland has been touching her sexually.
- You are right, it is
very disturbing indeed.
I will deal with it.
Please go and see to my daughter.
I want to make sure the correct
preparations are in place.
You stay put.
This is gonna be worse for you.
See, you're just not for me.
- I am sorry.
- What are you sorry for?
- That. I couldn't protect you.
- How were you supposed to
know what was going to happen?
- Well, now that you're back,
I'll never let anything
happen to you ever again.
- I don't blame you.
I'm just a girl.
You are now King.
- I love you.
- I love you too.
But things haven't changed.
- You can't say that.
- Of course I can do.
You forget, I used to
be a princess myself.
I know what is required of you.
- Things are different now.
- How?
- You are pregnant with my babies.
- She's mine.
- Please, I want us to be a proper family.
I'll give up being king, the kingdom,
everything if it means I can be with you.
- I couldn't ask you for that.
- You're not asking me. I'm offering.
- You have to marry her.
Do what is right for the kingdom.
Please.
For me.
- You have been here all day.
- I'm sorry I kept him so long.
He was just discussing what he could do
to make your wedding special.
- You were?
- Yes, yes, I was.
- Oh, you are so sweet.
And since you have been so kind to help,
I will do something nice for you.
I will let you be my personal maid.
You can even do my hair.
How nice for you.
Now come on, you.
Let's go finish planning
the wedding of the century.
- Dark evil spirits,
accept his humble offering.
- They always taste
better when they're screaming.
- How is it?
- Delicious.
You leave the rest, take it for yourself.
- They're mine. They.
He can't have her.
She's mine.
- What are you doing?
Talking to yourself is the
first sign of madness, you know?
- You've got some nerve.
You better be careful who
you talk to like that.
- You don't scare me.
I am not asleep.
- What do you mean by that?
- I know what you've been doing
to that poor sleeping girl.
You are not going to get away with it.
- Oh yeah?
And who's gonna stop me?
- I am going to have words
with the King himself
and I'm sure he will have
a few choice words for you.
- What have we here then?
- I could ask the same.
- You are in no position to ask me that.
You are just a dirty rape peasant, killer.
- What happens now?
You're going to kill me?
- I could do.
It would wrap up this mess quite nicely.
- How do you figure?
- You killed these two girls
and then yourself?
- You're right.
That is a good story.
But I could be useful to you.
- Take care of the bodies,
and if you say anything,
I will tell everyone
about your little indiscretion.
- Do you think it's a good
idea, handing me a weapon?
- You will not kill me.
I'm too powerful and you
would not get away with it.
Do as you're told and this
could be a great start
to a wonderful partnership.
- What do you need that for?
- It's something for my remedy.
It keeps me feeling so young.
Waste not, want not.
- I'm not a rapist.
We're in love.
- Do you really believe that?
- I know it.
Once your daughter marries
him, I'll make her mine.
- I shall make sure of it.
- Dark spirits, keep me alive
and healthy so I can do
your work here on earth.
Dark spirits, keep me alive
and healthy so I can do
your work here on earth.
Dark spirits, keep me alive
and healthy so I can do
your work here on earth.
Dark spirits...
- What brings you to my
room at this late hour?
- Mother, I am so happy.
I really thought I'd lost
him when that bitch woke up.
- That won't happen, my sweetie.
This wedding is the
last phase of the plan.
- Is that all you care about
Is my happiness not important to you?
- Of course it is.
All this is to ensure
your future happiness.
- Do you know what would
really make me happy?
- I thought you had everything
- I want her babies gone.
Her, I can handle.
But if the babies are his,
he'll love them more than me
and our future children.
- Oh, sweetie, relax.
- Can I have some of your
special remedy for my hair?
I want it to look perfect.
- Anything for my queen?
Mm.
- So what can we do about the babies?
- Do you want to know a secret?
- Since when do you have secrets?
Tell me.
- It has just come to my attention,
but the baby she's carrying
are not the King's.
- What? You can't be serious.
Who's the father?
- Leland.
- The servant?
- The same.
- Are you okay?
- Yeah I am.
I've figured it out.
- Not this again.
- Just hear me out.
I've looked over the maps.
I think I've worked out
the route my sister took.
If I can find her, she can come back.
- It would be nice for her
to be here for the wedding.
- Not to be here for the
wedding, to take the throne.
- She left for a reason.
- She has as much duty
to the throne as I do.
You okay?
- Yes.
I thought I remembered
something, but I can't be sure.
I don't think this is a good idea.
- I'm going to do this.
It's the only way we can be together.
- I love you.
- Not as much as I love you.
I'll leave now and be back tonight.
Be careful til then.
It will be over soon.
Promise.
- It's heavier than it looks.
- You'll be helping me with the dress.
This was my wedding dress.
Sophia will be wearing it.
We just need to make some alterations.
Do you know how to spin thread?
- No ma'am, I was never taught.
- I shall teach you.
- Mother, you can't use Thalia.
She's my maid, not yours.
- She's helping me mend the dress.
- Can't you just have Iria to help you?
- Iria is not here.
What do you need Thalia for anyway?
You can use Divia.
- No, I wanted Thalia to do my hair.
I don't want an old lady toughing it up
and I don't want this old rag.
- Shite!
Just a drop.
Tastes very sweet.
It keeps me young.
- It was you.
You were the ones that attacked me.
- You must be confused.
Please, here, take a seat.
- Oh, look, the whore's water's broken.
- Huh? Great.
- Now we'll have to do
something about it, won't we?
- Let go!
- Turn over.
- Hold step.
- Please.
Please, don't do this.
I'm in labor. I need a doctor.
- You don't need a doctor.
I shall deliver your babies.
- What did I ever do to you?
- You stood in my way.
You won't get away with this.
What do you think the King
will do when he finds out
what you've done to me?
- Why would he care?
He loves me now.
These are his babies.
- The babies aren't his, you taut.
Leland's been having his way with you.
The babies are his.
- No, no, no.
That can't be true.
- And once I tell him,
you'll mean nothing to him.
Aw.
- No.
- Where have you been?
- I went to look for my sister.
- Oh, did you find anything?
- No, she's still missing.
- You have to tell me when you leave.
We are going to be married.
There shouldn't be any secrets between us.
- I know. I'm sorry.
Wanted to surprise you.
- Actually, I have a surprise for you.
Thalia has left.
- What? When?
- Earlier today.
She just said that she was going
to have her babies with the father.
- Did she say anything else?
- Just that she hopes we
have a wonderful wedding.
Sweet girl.
Come on, let's get you in the bath.
You've had a really long day.
- The head, the head's coming.
You need to push.
The second is coming.
You need to give a big push, Thalia.
Push!
Congratulations.
You are done.
- Please, please.
Lemme hold my babies.
- Your babies are not crying.
They are dead.
- Please, bring my babies back.
They need me!
- Don't worry. You'll see them soon.
I promise you.
This is good.
Told me it'd leave my
skin as tight as a drum.
I taught you well.
- I learned from the best, mother.
- Help me.
Help me!
Hello? Help me!
It's me!
Velma and Sophia tied me
and they took my babies.
- I cannot get your free.
These ropes are too tight.
- There's a knife somewhere down there.
Oh, thank you, thank you.
- Come on.
If someone finds you,
they will kill us both.
You must find the strength,
not just for you, but for your babies.
You have to save them.
- Don't be scared.
You know I wouldn't hurt you.
- Who are you?
- Don't be like that.
You know I love you.
- Why she kill Delia?
- She was in on your capture.
It's all a trick.
I promise I'll protect you.
- You must be Leland.
- You will be a beautiful blushing bride.
- That treatment there does me wonders.
- It's over!
- Yeah, and who's going to stop us?
You won't be able to hide
when everyone knows the truth.
- And what truth might that be then.
- You put me to sleep
and you killed my baby.
- Yeah?
That doesn't sound that believable.
I think you may have
left some details out.
- I think you're right.
The death of Iria.
- And then there's the death of the queen
and her daughter, Lily.
- And the death of your
father, King Alexander.
Am I missing anyone?
- Nope, no, don't think so.
- You are truly evil.
Where are your from, the pits of hell?
- It was not wise you
coming in here by yourself.
- When will you give up?
- You are done.
Your babies are gone.
Your face is gone.
You are nothing.
Just except your fate and die.
- Oh, sorry, I can't
wait to watch you die,
but I don't wanna be late for my wedding.
- Who are you?
- My name is Zazid.
I come from the.
What is it that you want?
- I need to exact revenge on the ones
that have done this to me.
- This is useless.
Are you sure you're ready?
- What is the matter?
You seem distracted.
- I'm fine.
- What did I tell you?
As wife and husband, there
should be no secrets.
- I just miss my sister.
- I understand, my love, but
you have a new family now.
We have a bright future ahead of us.
We are the most powerful family.
- Guess you're right.
- Whatcha looking at?
- Who is that?
- I don't think, it can't be.
- It can't be.
- Thalia, is that you?
I thought you left.
You came back.
Where are the babies?
- They're in a safe place.
- Why did you run off?
- I didn't.
- I'm sorry, I couldn't find my sister.
If I had, if I'd known you didn't run off,
I never would've married her.
- That was a purposeless endeavor.
- What are you saying?
- Ask your wife and mother-in-law.
They know.
- Thalia, you don't sound like you.
Thalia is no more.
They took her away.
All that's left is the
shell of who she was.
- It can't be.
- How is she still alive?
- Is it really you or an imposter?
- What is that monstrosity?
- Please, no!
- Mother! Please don't leave.
We have to...
- I will come back to you.
- No, please don't leave me!
Mother!
- Oh look, the family reunion.
Together at last.
- Thalia, you are not well.
Meet your babies.
There's no one here but us.
Take a look for yourself.
- What have you done?
I loved you, and look
what I've got for it.
- Please, Thalia, don't do this.
We love each other.
- Love?
If you loved me, why would
would you let them hurt me?
Edison?
Love that?
- Please, I love you.
- You will forever be mine, Edison?
- Edison?
Edison?
Get off me!
I said, get off me!
I said, get off me!
No!
Help me, mother!
- I'd stop right there if I was you.
- What have you got left?
- I am the queen of all the kingdoms now.
- Is that all you care about?
- You have lost more than me.
Now, you have no beauty.
You are worthless.
- You are an old haggard bitch.
What beauty do you possess?
- My beauty may have faded,
but when I needed it, I got it.
I got my daughter.
- It's all gone now, and
no power can bring it back.
- You and I are not so different.
- I am no monster like you.
I would've never killed for power.
- But you lost something
that kept you in the fold.
You're just like me,
but I still have my face.
- You really have no heart.
Now, you will have no face to match.
- Ah, but I have the one thing
you'll never have.
Zazid, take her away.
I think she will be a
nice, tasty little treat,
and she still has some spirit in her.
- Smells interesting.
The smell of a broken soul.
And me being there has helped.
Your torture is too bad.
It's overbearing.
I don't think I can.
- No, I demand you to.
- My loyalty lies with no one.
I just like, I just
like watching you humans
play your silly games.
- No, after everything I've done for you.
- Sophia, you're still alive.
Edison...
Kill me.
- Come on, I would never do that.
Don't say that.
- Please.
Please, just put me out of my misery.
Edison, please, I'm begging you.
- Sorry, I can't.
Thalia, what have you done?
- I did what I had to do
so we could be together.
- I'll never be with a
monster like you, a demon.
- You have no choice,
- One day, you'll
realize that being king's
not just about you, but about your kingdom
and their needs, they come above your own.
Do you remember that?
I have to stop you.
I'm sorry.
- You are my love forever.
