The Otherkind (2026) Movie Script

1
Blue-Flamer, are you there?
Aidan?
Are you still
on your cigarette run, buddy?
Talk to me, you idiot.
Hello.
This gotta be a nightmare.
Psst.
Crossing.
Aiden?
It's Martin.
Aidan?
You there?
Aidan?
Aidan, Aidan, hold!
What the Hell happened to you?
Back up! Back up!
Holy shit, Aidan, are you okay?
-Buddy?
-Call for help, call!
Okay, okay I call it
in, I'll call it in.
Oh, my God, are you okay, Aidan?
How could you do
this to yourself?
Come on, Aidan, wake up!
Wake up!
Talk to me!
Talk to me!
Sheriff's have
called off the 14-day search
for local school teacher
Elisabeth Sanders,
last seen at the lakeside
Fourth of July fireworks show.
The family thanks the divers
and rescue team for
their painstaking search.
Police are still
investigating the case.
Saw her sitting in
the back of the class
Then I got to know her,
could hardly make it last..
Thanks for driving up
here with me!
Mm-hmm.
Jack forgot his
paperwork for his new job.
Idiot
|
This bother you?
No.
Aye, if it gets dark later,
we can just crash in my car.
I only brought one blankey.
You want to cuddle?
No, no, no, jeez,
I don't want to fuck you.
Mm-hmm.
I don't know where
that mouth's been.
Hey.
Fuck you.
Being a ghost
inside your head
I guess that's
what I get for
being a ghost
inside your head
They don't feel me,
but they fear me
Take all their
secrets one by one
I guess that's what
I get for for calling
my home, the
devil's backbone
They don't feel me,
but they fear me
Take all their
secrets one by one
I guess that's what
I get for being
The devil's daughter,
the devil's advocate
Oh
Who'd want to work
in this shit hole?
What's up?
Hey.
Hey.
What's good, sis?
Here.
Ah, yeah, thank you.
I will make this up
to you, right now.
Something that will make
the world wash away.
Thank you.
It's good shit.
Oh, This is Rafer!
Camp director.
Hi, I'm Birdie, this is Mona.
You're different than I expected.
What'd you think I'd
look like, some old goat?
- No-
- Don't listen to her.
Shut up, Mona.
So, Jack, what
do I get in return?
Yeah!
Oh, ah, yeah, um,
maybe I can pick up
something special at Old
Freddy's or something.
Ooh, alcohol, goodie, yeah!
How about we meet you
guys at the lake, later?
Sounds like a class
time, little Bird.
-Eight?
-Eight?
Past your bedtime?
Birdie, you trying
to party tonight.
Birdie getting
freaky on me, okay.
Yeah, that's fine,
meet you there.
I'm starving', Marvin.
We'll see you later.
You're starving, huh?
Are you hungry for me?
Jack!
What, oh, come on,
I'm makin' moves.
Hey, don't hurt my car, either!
Shut your cake-hole,
you know how safe I am.
Yeah, about as safe
as you are with men!
-Mm!
-What?
You dick.
Hey, don't do that.
Bye, Birdie.
I love you.
Bye, Mona.
Oh, no.
Here's this.
I think you're officially
part of the camp now, my friend.
Oh, good.
He's such a bastard!
But, food!
Yeah, yeah I heard you.
Go buy some beer
and a pack of smokes
But babe, you haven't
been smoking lately
Ugh.
Everybody getting arrested today.
Oh, shit, fuck.
Hoping for someone
to show me a sign
Then in the pale, still sun
Hanging, the fireworks
fell from the sky
Must have been close
to the 4th of July
Miss you, bud.
Footsteps thudding
This some bullshit.
Cat meows
Okay, this one is kind of
the same as the other one,
but it's a little
different, um...
Birdie, yeah, Birdie, yeah
I like it.
You like it?
-Yeah.
-Nah, it's kind of stupid.
No, it's not stupid.
All right, cool, yeah, yeah.
Looks like you could use one.
-Ah, thanks.
-Yeah.
You guys think we're
like the only ones here?
What the heck are
you blabbing' about?
Like on Earth, dude,
on this pale blue dot.
There's so much universe
out there and we're here.
Don't you think there's like,
other things like among us?
Are you talking about
aliens or other organisms?
You know, there's an
unidentified human gene.
So how many beers has Jack had?
To be precise, more than a few.
-Mm-hmm.
-That explains his
stupid head.
That's so funny, dude?
Well, I'm going to sit
right here next to Birdie.
You all right, I'm sorry.
I'm sorry. I'm sorry.
Cheese.
Fine, I'm just going to blaze up.
Who's got next on uke?
-Me.
-Me!
Me!
Working at the camp
has got its benefits.
Birdie.
Hey, Birdie, Birdie?
Are you okay?
You okay?
My little Bird, it's just me.
Yeah.
I'm sorry.
What's wrong?
Mona?
Mona!
Mona?
Ugh!
Uh!
What is it?
You stink of piss.
My God!
Who the fuck did this to you?
-Mm?
-I don't know.
Birdie, this isn't right.
Ah.
Uh.
There we go.
I passed out.
I had to use the toilet,
and that's the last
thing I remember.
You, okay?
Come on, let's get you
outta here, little Bird.
Hey.
Hey, man.
-Hey.
-What the fuck are you doing?
Move the fuck on, go!
Yeah, sorry, yep, okay?
Another day in the line
of fucking duty.
The California
Department of Water Resources
has issued a danger advisory
after finding invasive
parasites in the water.
Officials have closed the lake
for swimming and fishing.
The warning urges people not
to allow contaminated
water to enter
-into the mouth or the nose.
-Miss you, bud.
Agh, ow, ah.
Ow.
There's your coffee.
Yes, all right, thanks.
Oh, man, when are you going
to get rid of this change?
I'm getting rid of it right now.
I'm sorry.
Hey, who's that
beautiful creature?
She's about half your age.
All right,
man, I'll see you later.
Right on.
I think I finally
found my perfect brew.
I had a good time
last night, man.
Yeah, I hope the girls
aren't upset we left early.
They'll figure it
out, they're smart.
Jack, did you want some coffee?
Sure.
Coming right up.
Yeah, so, ah. I wanted
to ask you something.
Yeah.
I was hoping that, uh,
I don't know, maybe I
could take your sister out
on a date sometime?
Hmm?
You want to take my
sister out on a date?
You're like asking me permission?
Nah, I just wanted, you know-
I don't really think that, like,
you're her type, you know?
More like she's not your type.
She's not like any
guy's type, you know?
She like a puss face.
I see.
I, I'm doing you a favor,
like, I'm, I'm helping you out.
Yeah, no worries.
You want to stick
it in my sister, bro?
No, man, it's not like that.
-Wow.
-I'm a good guy.
You know I would never
try to do something.
What happened last night?
Now I'm going to need
that cup of coffee, so...
Oh, yeah, yeah,
yeah, coming right up.
Fuckin' dude, what, man.
I forgot the sugar.
-I'm just...
-Ow!
Oh, I am so sorry, do you,
ah, do you need some ice?
Ah, fuck, dude.
Here, uh, use that.
Ah.
Jesus, dude, careful.
He did it, he really did it.
Yeah, that, that's
totally my fault.
Bah bah bah!
I think you should still try it.
Fine, dude, a-ask her out.
I don't know what
she's going to say,
but go for it, dude.
Dude, thank you so much, Jack,
honestly, this means a lot to me.
You know, I'm going to
treat her like a lady.
I'm going to be very respectful.
Yeah, no, no stop touching me,
but it's fine, it's
fine, you're fine, dude.
Yeah.
Just relax a
little bit, you know?
Yeah, for sure.
You're freaking me out.
Hey, lady
Won't you come round here
I've been waiting
all my life for you
You are a lucky mother fucker.
We have a call
over at the cross streets
of Lone Street and Pine.
A distressed woman,
possibly a domestic
problem regarding her son.
Got it.
It's the police.
Uh, hello, Ma'am,
I'm Officer Aidan.
We received a call about
a disturbance coming
from your house?
Hello, Officer, I'm Aisling.
Thank you so much for coming.
I don't know what to do
about my son.
I'll see what I can do.
Where is the kid now?
He's inside, follow me.
Baby
It's fine
Baby
There's a nice person
here to help you.
Okay.
Hey, Jerry.
It's fine
What's the story, buddy?
I saw this pretty
lady at the lake.
She was calling for
me to go with her.
It was probably
just your imagination.
You don't fucking believe me!
Hey, don't speak that way
in front of your mother.
Now listen to the nice
Police Officer, okay?
You did this!
You and those filthy
men you bring home!
Okay, come on.
Don't touch me!
Come on, let's move it.
Stop! Whore!
Okay, young man,
get your feet in.
No, my baby!
I'm a terrible mother.
No.
We'll take good
care of him, okay?
We'll make sure he's in
good hands at the clinic.
They'll give you a
call tomorrow, okay?
Thank you, take care of my baby.
Okay, whoa.
Okay, okay, thank you
for calling, all right?
Today,
hundreds of dead fish washed up
on the lake shore.
Clean-ups have begun
and volunteers have
opted to bury the fish
to contain the stench,
which locals are finding
quite overbearing.
Going off
Give me a break.
To Pioneertown
Going to write me a
song
Do you want to get that,
Councilor?
-Yeah.
-First call of the day,
lets see.
Hello, Camp Office.
Aye, it's me.
Oh, hey, Mona, what's up?
Birdie is seriously hurt.
She has these burn
marks all over her arms.
What, what happened?
What, you think I did that?
You were the last one with her.
Yeah, I was with her last night,
but I didn't fucking touch her.
Hi, hi, Mona, where
are you guys at?
Are you safe?
We're fine. We're
just at the bar.
Where else, Birdie
wanted some fries.
Well, stay right there.
We'll be there in
just a second, okay?
Okay, yeah.
I'll see you guys soon.
To write some cowboy
song
Sharing is caring.
Yes.
Mm.
Mm.
Kinda itchy.
You look like
a washed-out protester.
Old Gas Station clothing
has some charm after all.
Fuck the government, man!
Fuck the taxes!
Okay, that's enough.
The government can suck my-
Okay, all right.
I don't want to interrupt
your political stand,
but we should really
keep an eye out for Jack.
Even though you are showing
off all your little birdies.
-Mm.
-Okay.
Woo, woo!
Hey, Boys!
Are you guys okay?
-What's going on?
-Thank God, you're here.
Birdie, you all right?
I'm good.
Ugh.
Yeah, Mona, what
the Hell, she's fine.
Mm, hmm, mah, ma...
Mm, hmm, mah, ma...
Ah.
Ma, ma.
Mona?
Uh.
Please don't touch me!
It's all in my head.
It's all in my head.
It's all in my head.
Bert, one more
round for me, please.
And one for this
handsome fella, too.
So, um, what happened last night,
you know, with you and Birdie?
Nothing.
I don't know, man,
she's a little weird.
She's, ah, I don't know,
girls will do anything
for attention so you can't
really read into it, you know?
Looking at her, I mean
she looks like she's
beat up pretty bad.
Can we just stop
talking about it?
Can we stop talking about Birdie?
So, what was it
like growing up here?
What was it like growing up here?
Man, it was so cool.
So cool, what do you
think it was like, dude?
It fucking sucked.
My father fucking
fucked off somewhere,
when I was a kid.
Wow, way to lighten the mood.
Dude, you just know how
to bring up the room.
I'm sorry, man, you don't
have to talk about it.
When we were kids, we went
to the lake as a family.
It was all good.
And we were like happy.
I remember that day.
It was a great, great day, and...
All of a sudden,
our dad disappeared.
Daddy!
Hey, Mona, is
everything all right?
I don't know where Dad
is. I don't know Dad is.
Me and Mona were just kids.
And he was there,
and then he was gone.
Mona was crying, it was
a whole, whole thing.
We waited for him, he was just...
He was just gone.
How about you and your family?
Um, they're still
on the East Coast.
They've been together
for like 25 years.
Oh, dude, have they been?
Don't care!
I'm just messing with you, dude.
Zombie Telegram
where not coming back
Want another one?
-Nah, I'm good.
-I still got this beer, dude.
I don't need another one.
Hey, Bert, excuse me.
Jack, I love you, man,
you're in here all the time,
but this is your last round,
and then I'm cutting you off!
Jesus, Bert, all right.
We took all our medicine...
Go. Go sit down.
All right, thank you.
What a dick.
So annoying.
In fact, Bert, um...
You got a red flagger, man.
What a butt head?
-Some people, right?
-Are they talking about me?
-It's all good.
-Let me just-
Leave it be, leave it be.
-Hold on.
-I hope they sign out.
-Excuse me, hey!
-Just chill.
-Jesus Christ.
-Were you guys
just talking shit about me?
-Sorry.
-Step back.
He's a little drunk.
Can you get your
friend out of here?
There are no problems here.
Jack, Jack, Jack.
Jesus, did you say butt head.
Jack!
-Your head's a butt!
-Guys!
Your head's a big butt!
Hey!
Chill, what are you doing?
Fuck this, hey, fuck you, guys.
Why don't you put your butt
right on this
eight-point-five, right here?
-Fuck you, guys!
-Relax.
And your girlfriend
can go suck my dick
Jack! Get down.
-Let's go, let's go, bud.
-No, no, no.
We're leaving, guys, it's
okay, it's okay, we're leaving.
-Please leave, go.
-No, it's okay.
Man, let's go, let's go, come on.
We'll drink, we'll drink
back at the camp, dude.
I'm not leaving any...
Ah!
Everything okay in there?
Yeah, I'm fine.
You sure?
Yes, Mona, I'm
just trying to rinse.
Come on, Jesus Christ, move it.
Look what I got.
What you lookin' at, son?
Hey, how do you do?
-Let's go.
-Ah.
Is this all really necessary?
He was just messing
around, ma'am.
Jeez Raph. Ow!
It's Officer Martin to you,
and you can come back
in a couple of hours
once he's sobered up.
We take disorderly
conduct complaints
very seriously here,
don't we, Officer Aidan?
That is 100% correct, Martin!
You're looking like a wet dog.
You better get some
rest, you look like shit.
I get my beauty rest later.
The last couple hours is nothing.
Hey, Raph, you're not
going to leave, are you?
I'm gonna have to, just
relax for a little bit.
I'll be back in a
couple of hours.
Hey, man, um, can you not
tell Mona about this, please?
All right, let's go he can
survive in jail one night,
I hope...
What the Hell does that mean?
Uh, behave yourself.
I do. I always behave myself.
Moving right along, let's go.
All right, I'll
see you later, bud.
Peace.
There you go.
Later, Raf.
God, this sucks!
Calm down!
I'm gonna go grab some
coffee from Delma's.
Do you want something?
Yeah, coffee would be great.
Cough up the money.
Come on, it's your turn.
Thank you, kindly!
Don't go anywhere.
Got that, don't go
anywhere, be right back.
Uh Hum.
Hey!
Hey!
Hey!
Hey, I know you, dude.
You're the cop from
the other night, right?
Yo, when I saw you,
I was like, that,
I recognized you, and um, Aidan.
Aidan!
You lost your son.
You're the father that had a boy,
and um, your wife took him.
And she moved away.
She's probably your
ex-wife now, huh?
What did you just say to me?
It's a small town, Aidan.
Your, isn't that you?
Your, your, your
whole family left.
You started, um, drinking.
You got drunk.
You got thrown out of bars, too.
We've heard it all
before, poor coppy.
Coppy, coppy.
And why the fuck do you think
you can talk to me that way?
Ah, cause...
We're the same. You and me.
We're the same?
That's what you think?
Mm-hmm, takes one to
know one, my friend.
Mm.
You're free to go.
I'm free to go.
Yeah, all right, um...
You're funny, Aidan.
All right, thank you.
Pleasure.
Ah!
Help! Help!
In other
news, earlier this evening,
a young boy was found dead
after being admitted
to the hospital
for behavioral problems.
A CAT scan has revealed
parasitic damage in his brain.
Upon receiving the news,
his mother ran onto Chestnut Road
in front of an oncoming car
and was killed on impact.
He passed out.
I didn't know what to do.
The KMR Newsroom,
the time is 12 midnight.
I was in shock.
I checked his cell
as a precaution.
Blue Flamer, are you there?
Are you still on your
cigarette run, buddy?
Hey!
Mona, where's Daddy?
We got to take you to a doctor.
What are you doing
out here, anyways?
Left that pothead by himself.
Is he behaving?
Jack had a nervous breakdown.
He passed out right
in front of me.
I'll head back and check on him.
Hey, hey, hey, man.
I, I think, I think there's
something in that lake.
A monster, or something
like, I don't know...
A monster?
Come on, Aidan, there are
no monsters or mermaids,
or wizards, or leprechauns.
We need to take you to a doctor.
I'm telling you,
I went and saw that
kid on that house call,
he was scared out of his mind.
That, that kid, he saw it.
Look, I don't
know what you're on.
But you don't buy shrooms
from a guy named Lucifer.
Now, get your ass up, let's go.
So much truding water
And a long way to go
'Till I reach my shelter,
And it's getting cold
I'm talking
myself in circles
What the Hell are you doing?
Hey!
Somebody calling my
name on the megaphone
Run, run, run so far away,
their gonna hunt you down
We got to get away
From the road and
the street light
Run until they fade away,
legs don't fail me now
We gotta get away
I gotta get away
This is Highway Patrol
calling in for Harris, copy.
Birdie!
It's freezing!
What are you doing?
You know I can't swim!
This is, again, Officer
Martin calling in,
what's your ETA, Officer Harris?
Officer Harris!
God dammit.
What the fuck are you doing?
I'll prove it to you!
Aidan!
What in the fuck is going on?
You're a father that had a boy,
and your wife took him.
You are a lucky mother fucker.
Invasive
alien parasites in the water.
I saw this
pretty lady at the lake.
Come on, Aidan,
there are no monsters,
or mermaids, or...
Come on, Aidan, wake up!
You know I can't swim!
Hey, I'm here.
Hey, I'm here.
All right.
Okay.
Hold, all right.
We're close, okay?
Fuck!
Ah!
Fuck, fuck, fuck, fuck, fuck!
Hey!
Can I use your phone?
Yeah, I guess.
Oh, I was having a crazy dream.
Crazy good, if you know
what I mean.
Hey, uh-What?
Your friend, he just ran
right out of the car there.
What?
Fuck, shit.
Hey, I've only got one of these.
He looked like one Hell
of a ding-wop!
He was practically dead.
You should really
be careful about
what kind of boys you let
into your life, Missy.
Denver, can you just,
just call the
authorities, all right?
Where the fuck did he go?
Fuck.
Isn't he the authority?
Will do, buckaroo!
Shit.
What are you doing up, still?
Is this some sort
of fucking joke?
You make me worry about you
and then you show
up, out of nowhere.
If you were my friend, you
wouldn't have done that.
Get out of my place, now!
Go, Birdie go!
Leave!
Leave!
(footsteps shuffling
Hey.
Um, sorry, one second.
Um, this is Officer Harris.
Are you the sister
of Jack Stanton?
Yes, that's me.
Unfortunately, your brother had
to go to the Kind Hospital, um,
he's totally stable,
but um, they wanted me
to call and let
you know that, um,
he, he did have alcohol
poisoning late last night,
uh, technically,
early this morning.
Flying fuck.
I'll be there as soon as I can.
You don't need
to worry that much.
His buddy, Rafer Johnson,
is on the way over
to the hospital, so he won't
be alone for that long.
Okay, adios.
I'll be there soon.
"Live by yourself,
make more friends."
Fucking advice from a...
Come on!
Old piece of shit,
come on, come on!
The Water
Resources Control Board division
has issued an unsafe
drinking water,
and urgent boil water notice.
Come on, Jack.
Hey.
Yes, may I help you?
Dear, sign in on the sheet,
if you want to see the doc.
No, I, I'm here to see
my brother Jack Stanton.
I just really need to see him.
You really need to
sit and breathe, love.
This may take a minute.
My love, can you just tell me
what room Jack Stanton
currently is in?
Are you a visiting family member?
Yeah, I'm his fucking sister.
Now, can you just tell me
where he is?
Fuck!
It's room 105.
Thanks, that's all I needed.
Now wait, wait, wait.
Ah, here it is.
This is your visitor pass.
You need to wear this.
It's for the hospital's security.
-Okay.
-And mine.
Thanks.
You are most
welcome, sweetie pie!
Hello, Jack.
Jack, are you in here?
No, stop.
No.
No.
God, please, no.
Please.
Jack?
I'm sorry.
I am so sorry. I am so sorry.
No
No, no, no, Jack.
God, you fucking idiot!
I just...
I'd hoped you'd never do this.
Can we get some help in here?
A doctor, nurse!
Some help, please!
I know, I know I've been
an asshole lately, but
I love you.
I love you.
You silly, silly man.
(Rafer gasps and groans
You fucking did this, you fuck!
Fuck, fuck you!
Get off me!
Fuck you!
Hey, my dear,
I need that visitor's pass.
I'm sorry.
You know, for many Californians,
the best part of summer is
spending time on the water
with family and friends.
Experts are now
recommending safe practice
for water recreation,
to always scan for
potentially harmful substances
in any body of water.
Conditions can change
fast with wind, rain,
and fluctuating temperatures,
brought on by Climate Change.
So watch out for foreign
particles in the water,
color streaks in the
water, and or scum
on the surface of the shoreline.
Be safe, you'll see
signs alerting people not
to swim in contaminated waters.
Symptoms can include weakness,
difficulty breathing,
or even death.
Thank you for listening to
KMR FM on your drive home.
I don't care about
what they say about anything
Anything
That won't stop me from
Thinking that I
know everything
Everything, uh-huh
Not exactly ready for the prom.
I haven't been thinking
way too much these days
I haven't been drinking
too much these days
I don't care about
what they say about anything
Anything
That won't stop me from
thinking that I know
Everything
Everything, uh-huh
I haven't been drinking
too much these days
Are you badly missing
open roads and dusty things
Frigid like the mountains
Licking dew between my legs
Coldest season yet
in February
Losing sleep
Driving on the coastline
digging up the memories
Crying in the rain
You see my tears
and tell me that we're done
After all the miles
And all the years
we left back in the sun
Twilight on the highway
Not a street
light to be found
Missing January
When we packed
and left that town
Wrap you arms around me
Pull me closer, not a sound
Leaving under
big skies, baby
Now I'm feeling found
Crying in the rain...
