The Demon Disorder (2024) Movie Script

[Old time jazz music plays]

The Lord will plague
you with diseases
until he has destroyed you
from the land
you are entering to possess.

You will be struck
with wasting diseases.

Fever, inflammation
which will plague you
until you perish
because of the evil
you have done.
[Door creaks]
[Flies buzzing]
You're afraid.
[Flies buzzing]

[Mumbling quietly]
[Thumping in distance]
Better, better.
[Murmurs]
[Ominous music plays]
Ah!
Ahh!
[Gasps]

[Whistles]


[Whistles]


Jake?

[Gurgling]
Jake.
In here.
It's happened again.

[Flies buzzing,
cow breathing heavily]
[Cow moos]

[Gurgling]

[Cow breathing heavily]

[Cow moos]


[Cow breathing rapidly]

[Cow growls, gunshot]








[Exhales deeply]





- Sorry.
- You're late.
Yeah. I slept through my alarm.

Timing belt and alternator
arrived for the holdin'.
Good.
What?
Maybe you should stop
sleeping here.
It's not gonna be forever,
all right?
It's just a rough patch.
I'm fine.
Yeah, well, Dad keeps
asking about you,
and he said that if you do need
a place to stay,
the offer's always open.
Tell Max I said thanks,
but I'm okay.
You can tell him yourself.
Yeah, you're right.
I probably owe him a call.
Yeah. Can't hide
from the world forever.
Those parts.
- Mm-hmm?
- They clean or still soaking?
Still soaking.
See that box over there
on the shelf?
- Yes.
- Can you go through it?
Salvage what you can,
throw out the rest, all right?
Okay. Yes, sir.

Yeah.
Come on, you old buddy.
Yeah, yeah.


[Vehicle approaches]
[Engine stops]

[Sighs]

It's time we
tidied this place up.
One day you'll make a good
mechanic if you stick at it.
- All right?
- [Groans]
What if I don't want
to be a mechanic?
Shit!

Who are you?
You must be Cole.
Graham.
Huh? The thing's we see.

Put that down.
Now, Jake.
Careful.
You could really
hurt someone with this.
Cole, let's call it a day.
I'll walk you out.
Yeah. All right.


- Hey, Cole.
- Mm?
Sorry. My brother.
It's just not safe.
Family. It's all right.
You don't have to say. I get it.
I appreciate that.
Um, can I still use the workshop
for some of my own projects?
Yeah. After hours.
Now get.
- Ah. Thank you.
- Yeah.
Have fun
with angry garden gnome.
[Door closes]
Really? Hey.
You need a drink that bad?
- Oh, you want one?
- No, I'm drunk
from the tequila on your breath.
You shouldn't be driving.
Do you mind? Oh.
Mmm.
His favorite.
Nice touch.
- What do you want?
- Well...
call me crazy, but...
...I miss this place.
[Sniffles]
You remember when we were kids
and I used to pretend to be sick
and you'd trade Danny for work
instead of going to school?
Dad was great like that, eh?
Are you done?
What are you doing here?
I just thought
you might like a visit.
You need to leave.
- Now.
- Hey. Settle down. Relax.
You know,
we got a party going on.
We got beer, cake, candles.
28, eh?
Who would have thunk it?
You know, it only
seems like yesterday
that he was running around
annoying the shit out of us.
- And now...
- Uh-huh.
- ...here we are.
- Yeah.
- And what?
- I just...
I said I'd come down
and check on you.
And you're taking your tablets,
aren't you?
- Yeah.
- All right.
So this visit's your concern
about my well-being,
is that right?
Well, yes and no.
You need to come home.
That's not gonna happen.
Drink your beer and get out.
A blood oath.
Remember?
Don't.
That's what he said.
That's why I'm here.
[Cellphone clicks]
Jesus Christ, Phil,
put the hammer down.
Just... put the hammer...
[Snarls]
What the hell is that?
Honestly, I don't know.
First, I thought
it was a nightmares,
trauma maybe, but...
It's Dad all over again.
Yeah, right. Well, he needs
to see someone.
I can't help him.
Not until you see him first.
So are you coming or not?
Ahh!
First, the radios and the lights
started turning on
by themselves.
Then he became like dad.
One day he's fine,
the next he's trying to kill me.
Yeah? And what does
Phillip have to say?
He doesn't remember anything.
What do you expect me to do?
Maybe he'll open up to you.
He doesn't talk to me.
All I know is I can't do this
on my own anymore.




[Lock clicks]
[Door opens, keys jingle]
[Door closes]
Home sweet home.
If you say so.
I thought you would have enough
of all that stuff.
Well, they help sometimes.
I think he's scared of him now.
Phillip?
Hey, no. Um, Dad.
Dad's dead.
So what?
Where's Phillip?
Uh, it's late. He's asleep.
[Distant voice]
Dad.
Dad.

[Normal voice]
Dad.

Dad! It's Graham.
It's me. It's Graham.
Graham.
Graham.
I said, are you okay?

Memories.
Yeah. Too many.
Uh, look, your old room's
the, uh, storage room now,
so you all right with the couch?
- Yeah.
- Well, get some rest.
Got a lot to talk
about tomorrow.
Hey, Graycie.
I am glad you're here.
[Door opens]
[Door closes]



[Radio static]




[Distant screaming]
[Growl]
[Breathing heavily]

[Squelching]

[Squelching continues]




[Thump]
[Banging]
Oy.
Shush.
Why are you keeping
chickens in there, Jake?
Bad taste.
Maybe.
They're spooked.
Look at them, they...
they might just be chickens,
but they're not stupid.
What's that supposed to mean?
Can't you feel it?
No.
Sure you can.
He's still here.
Ever since Dad died,
the calves have been stillborn
or deformed.
This place is poison.
I told you to get the hell
out of here after he died.
Oh, yeah?
And go where?
With what money?
How long do you think
it'll be before people
started asking questions?
Anywhere is better than here.
- This is...
- Isn't?
Oh, well. Oh, what isn't right?
Isn't the right thing to do?
Well, what? For you?
For me? For Phillip?
You had no trouble fucking off
and forgetting us.
I was afraid, Jake.
And I still am.
I-I don't need to be here
to feel it.
Oh! Boo-hoo.
[Spits]
Oh, that's right. Yeah.
Walk away.
Yeah, you... Yeah,
you're good at that.
Coward.
All right, ladies,
who made me an egg?
Put your hand up.
Was it you?
[Tea kettle whistles]
Has it occurred to you
Phillip's just sick?
Traumatized by what happened?
Sure.
Whiskey in your coffee...
what could go wrong?
Whatever gets you
through the night.
Wouldn't be so sure about that.
I'll give it time.
It's only your first day.
Jesus Christ.
Did he ask you to come?
Scared the living shit
out of me.
Hey, buddy.
Happy birthday.
Oh, that's why you're here.
Yeah. Of course.
You're still full of shit.
[Chuckles] Yeah.
Come here.
Been too long.
Yeah.
You guys talking about me?
- No.
- Yes.
Mm. More bullshit.
Hey, hey, hey, whoa!
What the hell is that?
It's just an allergy.
Allergy to what?
I don't know.
Relax. It's fine.
I was just about
to make something to eat.
I'm gonna fix
the door of the coop.
Sit down.
Relax. It's already done.
Um, I'll make some of
my famous scrambled eggs, so.
I'm still getting
over the last batch.
Did you feed the chooks?
- No.
- Okay.
Seriously,
what the fuck is that?
Eggs?
Fuck me.
Need a hand, champ?
You too.
Me too. What?
I can't even take a piss
at the moment
without someone
looking over my shoulder.
Yeah, you got to get
the piss in the bowl.
Come on, loosen up.
I just thought we could talk.
We don't do that anymore.
- It's not like it used to be.
- Yeah, I know.
I know what you're gonna ask.
That night, I can't
remember any of it.
Okay?
It's a blur.
I'm here now if you want
to talk about it.
No you're not.
You bailed.
You left us to deal
with the mess.
I couldn't stay.
Hey, Phil!
Get your ass up here!
Coming?
Yeah.
I'll be right after you.

[Laughs]
Scared us.
Where's my bloody toothbrush?
Here.
- How you doing? All right?
- Yeah.
Don't talk with your mouth full.
[Chuckles]
Anyone who gets in my way
gets spat on.
[Spitting]
[Boys groan]
[Laughs]
Hey, I warned you.

Toothpaste in you.
It's disgusting.
I love you, boys.
Come on, let's go.

[Wood creaks]

[Whispering] Phillip.



Phillip.

Phillip. [Growls]

[Loudly] Phillip!

[Clock ticking]


[Thumping]

[Thumping continues]


[Thumping continues]
[Knock on door]
Phillip.
[Light switch clicks]
[Thumping continues]
[Shuffling]
[Animal crying]
[Thumping]
[Chicken crying]
[Crying continues]
[Crying stops]
[Graham breathing heavily]

[Chicken coos]







[Gasps]

[Bones cracking, squelching]

[Grunting]

Phillip.

Phillip.

Hey, champ.
[Squelching continues]

[Growls lightly]
[Growls]
Ah!
[Flesh breaking, Graham screams]
Ahhh!
[Clatter]
Fuck!
Ahhh!
Oh!

Ahh!
Stop!
[Phillip screaming]
Hold on, Phillip!
[Screaming continues]
- Call an ambulance!
- I'm not calling
- a fucking ambulance!
- Call a fucking ambulance!
No one's allowed here!
No one!
Jesus, look at that!
- What's that?!
- What is it?!
What is that?!
Oh! Get it out! What the fuck?
[Phillip choking]
Look, look at it.
[Graham and Jake groan]
What the hell is that?
- Fucking hell!
- What the hell is it?
[Phillips groaning]
Oh, my God!
Jesus!

I'll get it, I'll get it!

Ah!
- What is that?
- What the hell is that?
Ah! It's on my face!
It's on my face!
It's moving! Get it!
- [Jake gags]
- [Yells indistinctly]
I can't see!
Get it!
Get it!
[Indistinct yelling]
[Banging]
Open the door.
Where is it?
It's heading to Dad's room
Get it! Get it!
Ah!
- It's gone.
- Where's it gone?
I don't know.
What do you mean you don't know
where it's fucking gone, Jake?
I don't know. It's gone.
If I knew, I'd tell you,
wouldn't I?
- Just...
- The fuck it looks like.
- Just be quiet. Be quiet.
- Look for it.
I am looking for it.
What the hell is going on?
I don't know what's going on.
Jesus Christ.
Shut up!
Just be... Just be quiet.
The hell is happening?
Do I look like I know?
Shh. Just be quiet.
Just be quiet.

What the hell is going on?
What the bloody hell is it?
I don't know. Huh?
Just keep...
Just keep it down.
Just keep looking.
Just keep looking.
It's gotta be here somewhere.
- Jake, it's gone.
- It's gone.
It's go...
Jakey.
Graham.
What the hell is that?
What the fuck is that?
Stay there, Jakey, stay there.
Don't move. Stay there!
I'm not moving.
Hurry up. You...
Shut up.
- What have you got?
- Shut up, Jake.
Shut up.
Snap it.
[Shushing]
Wait a minute.
Get it! Go!
[Both yelling indistinctly]
[Creature squealching]

Oh, Jesus Christ!
It's still moving!
It's still moving!
What about Phillip?


Fuck, fuck, fuck!

Get it, put it in there.
We got you now.
Oh, Jesus.
Oh, Jesus.
Oh!
[Jake breathing heavily]

It looks like it's growing.

You really picked the worst
time to stop drinking.
You need to go back to meetings.
Yeah, whatever.
[Breathing heavily]
Isn't that the weirdest thing?
You see enough strange.
Weird shit.
It just starts to
feel normal after awhile.
This is normal, is it?
Well, what do you think?

- We need to be alert.
- I'm alert.
- Hey!
- We need to get help.
We don't even know
what's going on.
Who would?
Look, no one's better equipped
to handle this than us.
Equipped?
Look. [Breathing heavily]
Things are getting
worse by the minute.
We can't talk
our way through it.
- Have you tried?
- Have you?!
Well, nothing's working. Look!
No, you look!
No outsiders.
We handle it like
we've always done.
Well, we're sounding like Dad.
Don't we know
what we're dealing with?
Well, it's worked
in the past, hasn't it?
Yes.
Whatever you say, Jake.
I'll clean up, Phillip.
You take care of that?

[Radio static]
[Murmuring]

- [Knock on door]
- It's me.
I come with soup.

It's actually pretty good.
I tried some before.

You're afraid?
I'm not afraid of you, Dad.
Just make sure you eat, okay?
It'll help...
get your strength back.
- Make you feel better.
- Better.
Better. Better.
[Chuckles softly]
Better. [Mumbling]
Better. Better.
[Chuckles softly]

[Mumbling quietly]
He left it too long.
[Growls]

[Demonic growling]

[Laughing]
When I'm gone,
who do you think
it'll come for next?
[Demonic growling]

Phillip.
Come on.
I know you can hear me.
You shouldn't have come.
Why?
You know why.
I need to hear it from you.
Nothing's changed.
He's still with us.
Phillip.
What the hell
happened last night?
He's coming back.
Are you saying
that thing is Dad?
[Sighs]
I don't know.
It's just like a bad dream.
Jake says you're trying
to kill him.
I'm not!
Then why would he say that?
Listen, whatever it is,
it's out of me now.
I want to see it.
Untie me.

Let me help.

[Sniffles]




[Flies buzzing]

[Breathing shakily]


[Creature squelching]



[Breathing shakily]

Oh.

[Hammer drops]





[Indistinct whispering]

[Switches radio on]
[Radio static]




[Footsteps approaching]
Graycie.
What are you doing?
I don't know.

Yeah.
No one should be in here.

It still smells
like him in here.

Put it down.

There's nothing in here for us.









[Sighs]
I can hardly wait.



[Grunts]

Tell me exactly what you want.



Hello. Hello.


Hello.
[Radio static]

[Music plays from radio]
Is that you, Phil?



What are you doing in my room?



[Groans]


[Sobs]

[Growling]

Ah! Jake!
[Screaming]


Jake!
[Screaming]

[Laughing]


What did you...
Jake? Listen, listen.
Jake, Jake, listen!

Leave us alone,
you motherfucker!
Hey! Hey!
Stop it, Jake!
Jake! It's me, Jake!
It's me!

[Jake gasping]

[Choking] Fuck you!


Fuck.
[Both breathing heavily]

He wasn't himself.
What were you doing in here?

What now?

It's this house.
This is driving us all mad.
We got to get out of here.
Figure it out.
Okay.
What about him?
Little prick can sleep it off.
You all right?
- Yeah.
- You're gonna get up?
Yes.
Where are we going?
Just trust me.

[Groaning]
Phillip, Phillip, what is it?

Something's wrong.







["Pills for Kids"
plays on radio]
I was the life
of the party
Till I met that girl
I used to be good at school

Sticks and stones
never broke my bones
I'm just in the company
of my own
On the school bus with
the mean high schoolers
I grew an adults' mind
when I was just a child
The teacher said to me
I'll end up in the...
Oh, fuck me!
What are you doing?
Working. What are you doing?
I need you to
get out of here now.
Quick, now!

- Are you okay?
- Yeah, you can't be here.
You gotta go.
Oh.
I'm gonna call an ambulance.
- No!
- No!
He's okay. It'll be okay.
- Okay?
- Okay.
I need you to watch him.
Well, he needs
medical attention.
No, no, no, no.
Just watch him
for a minute, please.
Okay.
What is it? Food poisoning.
The heart is deceitful above
all things and desperately seek.
Who can understand it?

[Breathing heavily]


[Breathing shakily]


Oh.

No.
You can keep that.
Okay.

[Dialing]
[Line rings]
You've reached emergency.
Do you require police,
fire, or ambulance?
[Whispering] Hi.
I think I need an ambulance.
[Car radio glitches]
- [Phone line breaking]
- Sorry, ma'am...
Are you still there?

Do you need assistance?

Do you require police?

[Metal clangs]

Do you need assistance?
Ma'am. I can't hear anything.

[Squelching, Graham grunts]
[Door opens]
Stay there. Stay there.
What the hell is going on here?
You're hurt.
No. He... He bit me. That's it.
Let me... Let me help you.
No. I'm fine.
Let me see if it's bad.
Jake... Jake thinks
Phillip is possessed.
- Okay?
- Okay.
Cole, I'm being serious.
Well, what do you want me to...
[Rumbling]



[Bones cracking]

What was that?

Get under the desk.

Under the desk, Cole, now.





Are you okay?

Wait here.
Ah, Phil!

Phil!

Phillip!

What are you doing?
I was looking for my phone.

[Demonic voice]
I want you.

Phillip.

Cole. Come.
Okay.
Come.

Phil.




Phillip?

Phillip.
[Thud, metal clinks]
Shit.
Cole.
[Thud, metal creaks]
I'll get you out of here.

Quick!
Come on.
Come quick.
- Where is he?
- Leave her out of it.

Jake.
- Jake.
- Where is he?!
I don't know, Jake.
See, Cole, this is what happens
when you run.
I'm not gonna let you
hurt him anymore.
Hurt him?
I'm here to protect him.
I'm not the one who ran.
You left us no choice.
Why don't you listen to me?
Why don't you ever listen to me?
You are why we are here.
- No, no, no, no, no, no!
- You are why we are...
This isn't my fault!
- Well then do it.
- Graham, stop!
Do it.

Put us out of our misery, Jake.
You left us. You left us.
Why? Why did you...
- Do it!
- Why didn't you listen?
You can't do it, can you?
You couldn't do it then,
and you can't do it now,
can you?

[Growl]


Jake.
We have to find him.
What about her?
Cole, in the office now.
I'm gonna go. You guys
can sort your fucking shit out.
Cole. Please.
- I'm not asking.
- You're not my family.
Please, please.
For fuck's sakes.

What am I supposed to do?
It won't be for long.
It's for your protection.
- Trust me. Please.
- You didn't trust me.
Cole.
Just until this is over.

I'm sure.


This Phil?
The tongue got me thinking.
If we can get a bit of it out,
maybe we can draw it all out.
- Why would you want to do that?
- We need to trigger it.
Aggravate it.
Was thinking you could do that.
You're annoying.
No I'm not.

Why is he doing this?
It's not just Dad.
I think this thing
needs to grow inside us
until it's strong enough.
Strong enough for what?
To live on its own.
You got a plan B?
No, there's no plan B.
What are you gonna do?
Shoot him?
- What?
- It's still Phillip.

Much better.
[Radio static]

[Indistinct speaking over radio]

The disease and I
are now one.

Disease is...

When you are...

Will come... Next.
Who are you?!

Help me get him down.
[Breathing heavily,
bones cracking]

That's not Phillip.

Jesus.


[Growls]
Get him!
Get his legs!
[Phillip growling]

Tight, tight! Yeah, tight!

Phillip.
It's not Phillip!

Oh, Jake, come on!

[Growling continues]

Ahh!

Get up!


I'm sorry.

Can I see your arm?
What the fuck is that?
Oh! Oh, shit!
What the...

[Demonic voice]
You killed me.
Got out of him, now!
- Get out of him!
- The drink was yours,
wasn't it, Graham?
Dad, please let him go.


[Growls]

So he's in chains again.
Now what?
We need to build a crucifix.

A big one. Muffler.
Come.

Oh, shit.

[Growls]


What if Dad's death didn't
release him from the disease?
Do you really think that cross
is gonna work?
We're not believers.
No, but Dad was.
I thought that counts
for something.
[Chains rattle]

I just had a horrible thought.
What?

What if Dad has
no memory of dying?
[Breathing shakily]


You think this has
happened before?

How do I know?
I'm a mechanic.
Yeah. Not a very good one.

I mean, in the movies,
they get it from somewhere.

It's like, it's an...
not an exorcism so much, is it?
It's like pulling a parasite
from your skin.
Yeah, like that.
You want me to look at that?
Hey, hey!
Don't touch me.
It's fine.
I need a drink.
I haven't had a drink
in two years.
Well, you're a better man
than me.

You and I aren't going to have
any more problems, are we?
'Cause the only way through this
is if we do it together, Jake.
Mm.
He never should have asked.
It's too much.
Yeah.
But he did.

Phillip thinks
we left it too long,
that Dad's stuck
in his last memory of us.

You were right.

What?

I could...
I couldn't do it.

Whatever happens.
[Chains clanking]
[Gasping]
- Are you ready?
- No.
- [Grunts in distance]
- We'll count to three.
- Okay.
- Okay.
One.

What the fuck?
[Grunting, coughing]
Shit. Jesus.

Help me.
Don't do that.
Phillip. Phillip.
[Groans, whimpers]

Listen, Phillip.
[Groans]
[Pounding on door]

Jake. Jake. Jake.

[Grunting]
Shh. Be quiet. Be quiet.
- [Groans]
- Shut up.
[Whispers indistinctly]
[Police radio chatter]

It's the fucking cops.
Shit. Cole.
Wait.

You deal with her.
Don't. Wait.
Help me. Get him out.
Get him out. Get him out.
- [Pounding on door]
- [Groans]
Help me.
Hurry up, hurry up, hurry up.
[Groans, breathing heavily]
Shhhhh.
Okay. [Grunts]
Okay. Okay.

It's okay, Phillip.
We're going to help you,
We're going to help you.
You're okay.
You're okay.
I've got you.

Aw, fuck.
[All panting]

Fuck.
Okay.
Cole.
I'll deal with the cops.

You locked me in.

[Pulsating tone]
What the hell is wrong with you?

- [Pounding on door]
- Okay. Okay.

[Police radio chatter]

[Groans]
[Breathing heavily]

[Grunts]

[Groans]
[Gasps]
[Groans]
[Breathing heavily]

Good evening, officers.

Sounds like you have a problem.
Do you think you know
what's going on here?
You fucked us.
[Grunts]
Hello. I'm Officer Peters.
This is Officer Terry.
We received a call
from this address.
Really?
Uh, I never made a call.
Do you mind if we come inside?
[Breathing heavily]
[Groans]
Aah!
[Breathing heavily, grunting]

Aah!
Now's, uh, actually not
the best time.
Working awful late, aren't you?
Yeah, I live here.
- By yourself?
- Yes, just me.

Must get lonely.
Uh, look, officers, um,
there must have been a mistake.
I can reassure you
that everything is fine.

Wait.

You happy now?
- Oh, yeah.
- Yeah? Okay.
And you're going to keep
your mouth shut, aren't you?
Nod now if you understand me.
Nod. Nod.
You're going to get down.
Get down. Get down.
No, no. It's okay. It's okay.
Don't be scared.
Don't be scared.
I'm having some
technical issues with the main,
and, look, officers, I
appreciate you have a job to do,
but I don't really have
the time right now
to be giving you
a free tour of the garage.
[Grunting]

[Crying]



Look, no voice was on the line
when the call was answered.
It's remained off the hook.
We have a duty of care
to respond to all calls,
especially if they were made
by nobody.
So do you think perhaps
maybe we could just come inside
and take a look?
Peters? A-And Terry?
[Clattering in distance]

Thought you said
you lived alone.
Yeah, I just, um...
must've stacked a shelf wrong.
Yeah.
I'm afraid we're going
to have to insist.
It's not a safe space.
We'll be careful.
[Grunting]

[Breathing shakily]

Oh, fuck.

[Growls]


Yeah,
There's, uh, nothing down there.


Just a bit of art.


[Screeching]



Nice, old girl, this one.
Customer's?
Uh, it's my father's.

- Something wrong?
- No.

So if you didn't make the call,
then who did?
If I didn't make the call,
how would I know?
Came from a landline.
Right. Okay.

[Screeching]

[Wheezing]



Where's the phone?
Look, how many times do I have
to tell you the same thing?
I-I don't know
who made the call.

What's in there?

That's my office.
Are you good at paperwork?

Let's have a look.

There's no need.

[Sighs]
Let's go inside, mate.
Open it up.
- Uh, look, okay, guys...
- Come on, mate.
...I think
someone stitched you up.
- [Splat]
- Ugh.

[Breathing shakily]

Get out of here.

[Grunts]

After you.

Go.

See?
[Clanking]
It's just my office.
- Is there a phone in here?
- Keep quiet.
No, I have a fax.
[Screaming]

[Screeching]
Terry!

[Knocking on door]
Terry!
Terry, open it up!
It's locked on the other side.
What do you want me to do?
- [Yelling]
- Aah!

- Shit.
- [Crying]

Fuck this shit.
[Crying]

[Speaks indistinctly]
Hey, this cop is out cold.
[Grunting]

Shit.
[Indistinct talking]
Cole.
I'm sorry, Cole.

[Sighs]

Oh.

[Grunting]

I wouldn't have hurt you.

Mm?

- Oh.
- [Both grunt]
Aah.
[Grunts]

Phillip.

Oh, shit.

Hey, buddy.

It wasn't me.
I didn't do it.
It's okay. It's okay.
I got you.
- I got you. Come on.
- [Grunting]

I didn't do it.
[Speaks indistinctly]
Come on.
Oh, geez.
[Groans]

[Grunts]

It's me. You're safe.
Okay?
Oh, Jakey, are you alright?
- No.
- Okay.

Oh, hey.
- Huh?
- Hey.
Hey, dickhead.
Good to see you.
- My foot's fucked.
- What happened?
Stupid prick shot himself
in the foot.
Uh, it was an accident.
I didn't do it on purpose.
I'm getting a drink.
- Hey, Cole?
- Hm?
Can you get me something
to drink, please?
Whatever.
Hey, be careful.
Hey, Cole, be careful.

Did you get it?

W-What do you mean "get it"?
Him. He's here.


Give me the gun.

Well, I'm definitely
getting overtime now.


[Screeches]
[Growls]


[Screeching]

Guys.
[Screeching]

Cole, Cole, get back.
[Screeching]
Go.


[Screeching continues]


Dad?

[Screeches]
Finish this now.


Go.
I've got it.
No.
No, we all do this.


[Breathing shakily]

[Birds chirping]


Here you go, mate.
For your head.
Thank you.
Thank you, thank you, thank you.
Take my hand.

I'm so tired.
[Chuckles] So tired.
And I don't know how long
my thoughts will be my own.

Soon there will be nothing
left but the disease itself.

It has its own mind.
It knows no empathy.

Every day I look in the mirror,
I see a monster.

And as he grows, I disappear.

I want to die my way.

With my family.

A blood oath with my sons.
- Dad.
- Dad, please.
I don't want to see it coming.

The three of you will
take my life together.
- What?
- Dad.
I'm afraid of what I'll become
if you leave it too long.

I'm asking you this in clarity.

Dad, you don't know
what you're asking us.

Graham, look at me.
Look at me, son.

The time has come.

[Screeching]

[Gunshot]



[Grunts]

Cole, you should leave.

We'll be fine from here.
I will not.
Please.
This is your last chance.
I'm not going anywhere.


Graycie, what's wrong?
It's not over yet.

Look after them.

What are you doing?
What are you doing?
- Hey, careful.
- Hey.
Hey, hey, hey. Hey.
[Breathing heavily]
[Grunts]

Graycie...
Blood oath, remember?
That's what we said.

Phillip. [Speaks indistinctly]
[Crying]

[Indistinct shouting]
Hold him down.
Let me go!
[Indistinct shouting]
Get that thing out of his hand.
Aah!

[Speaks indistinctly]
You little mother!
- Ah! Ah!
- Okay, okay.
Oh, my God.
Jesus.
What the hell is that?
[Groans]
- [Screeching]
- It's moving.
[Speaks indistinctly]
- Get it out.
- I'm trying to get it out.
It's coming. It's coming.
- [Grunts]
- [Screeching continues]

[Crying]
Ah! Ah! Ah!
[Screeching continues]

Freaking squid on steroids.
Give me the gun.

Fuck you.

[Gunshot]
How do you like it, squidy?

[Men panting]

I thought my family
was fucked up.
[Chuckles]

[Siren wailing in distance]

Oh, no.
We need to get out of here.
[Wailing continues]
[Grunts]

[Grunts]
Jake, would you shut
the fuck up?
Dad just crawled out
of my armpit.
- Just drive.
- [Engine starts]
[Wailing continues]


Where we going?

Just keep driving, Cole.

Don't stop.




















[Flies buzzing]





["Pills for Kids" plays]


I was the life of the party
till I met that girl
I used to be good at school

Sticks and stones
never broke my bones
I'm just in the company
of my own
On the school bus
with the mean high schoolers
I grew an adult's mind
when I was just a child
The teacher said to me
I'll end up in the gutter
With a big grounding
from my suburban father

It's a true story
Of a pharmaceutical company
Only 9
when I tried the first time
Mother,
what have they done to me?

Ah!

Well, I'm a big girl now
I'll do things for myself
I don't need your pills,
and I don't need your help
I'm not as strange as I seem
It's all reactivity
Mother,
what have they done to me?

I've learned
a great many things
About the way
smart people think
It's never too late to start
To mend the life
they tore apart






Phillip!
