You like to stir up sh*t.

No cell phones,...

...in the middle of nowhere--

My brother's a coward, Mikey.

Use that pea brain of yours.

If you weren't Joe's brother,

I would kick your f***ing ass.

Hello?

What a f***ing joke.

- Stew, where are you going?

- Oh, let him go.

Prick.

Joe's coming.

Stew! Where are you going?

- Where is he going?

- I don't know.

He's just freaked out.

He's a dick.

What's this awol thing?

Why didn't you tell me?

I tell you everything.

You're right, Mikey.

I'm sorry about that.

Look, we can't talk about that

right now. We got bigger problems.

- What's the problem?

- Why? What's going on?

Something happened here.

There's bloody rags everywhere,...

...the windows are boarded up.

Whatever happened here, it's bad.

Is there anybody in there?

Not that I could see,...

...but I did find a phone,...

...so I'm gonna call the cops, I guess.

What? No. We just grab gas and we go.

It's locked.

Look, I have to do this.

Do you think the car that we saw

that was abandoned...

- ...had something to do with this?

- Yeah, probably.

I'm with Mikey on this one.

I think we should just go.

This place is creeping me out.

Okay.

Mikey, I'm gonna call it in.

You look for something

to cut that lock with.

Fine, and then you'll explain things.

When we get back on the road.

Can I talk to you for a sec over there?

Yeah, sure.

Hurry up.

You're just gonna leave me here?

You'll be fine.

I'll be right back.

Where are the horses?

So is that what you wanted to tell me?

Yeah.

- Sorry.

- No, don't be sorry, just--

I'm here for you.

We can talk about it whenever.

Thank you.

Look, when we get back home,

I'm gonna make it up to you.

- I promise.

- Yeah?

- Yeah.

- I might hold you to that.

Hey, hurry up.

Let's get out of here.

Okay.

Stew! Back in the car!

Yeah, I'm coming.

This is 911.

Hello, ma'am.

I'm so sorry.

We can't help you.

What do you mean?

Well, there's nothing

we can do. I'm sorry.

Just stay inside and

board up your windows.

I wanna go home.

Why would they leave us out here?

We need gas, Kyly.

Uh, wait. Hold on a second,...

...what are you--

What are you talking about?

- You don't know?

- No.

Look, I'm just trying to answer...

...as many calls to help people.

Help people? Ma'am?

Okay, first of all. Calm down.

Can you please explain to me

what's happening here?

Something bad happened.

Everyone is dead.

Where's Stew?

We gotta go. I have

a bad feeling about this.

You've gotta calm down.

Don't worry.

It's kind of hard not to worry.

Well, just try.

Ma'am, I'm on a farm

here with my friends--

Look, get inside.

Lock all the doors.

Board up your windows.

What if there's a murderer out there?

Stop.

If you or your friends

have been bitten...

Uh-huh?

...you need to lock them away or--

- Or what?

- Or you have to shoot them in the head.

We got a perimeter--

Whoa, whoa. Hold on a second.

This is crazy.

Open fire, now!

Get those civilians out of here!

Ma'am? Ma'am?

Jesus Christ, what the f***?

Hello?

Hey, I think there's someone in here.

Guys, you gotta see this.

Hello?

Oh, my God.

Guys, get over here.

I think she's hurt.

Get over here!

- What did he say?

- Oh, my God.

Ma'am, I am here to help you.

Oh, sh*t.

What happened?

- Is he bit?

- He's bleeding hard. What do I do?

Stew! Stew! Stew!

Did you call 911?

Joe, did you call?

What? No, the cops--

The cops ain't coming.

What? What do you mean

they're not coming?

What's happening?

I've never seen--

Why aren't they coming?

What the f*** did this?

What the--

Somebody's coming.

Oh, my God.

Jesus Christ. He's dead.

Oh, my God.

Please help us.

My brother's dead.

I'm so sorry.

No, it's all my fault.

There's something wrong

with these people.

Joe. Oh, God.

Kyly--

Get back, get back.

Stay away from them.

- Watch out, Kyly!

- Mikey!

Go get some help!

Go now!

Mikey, we're going on three.

- You go now.

- No, we go at the same time.

Joe! Go now, Joe.

Go! Go! Go!

- Oh, my God.

- Mikey, come on.

Come on, come on.

Let's go!

Quick, quick, quick, quick, quick.

- What's wrong with him?

- I don't know.

I thought he was dead.

He wasn't breathing.

I don't know.

Why are the windows boarded up?

Mikey, man, are you okay?

Mikey, are you going to be okay, man?

Yeah, yeah, it's just

I had to punch Stew.

I cut my hand on his damn teeth.

Are you sure?

Yeah. Yeah, it's just a scratch.

I wanna go home.

Yeah, I know. It's okay.

It's gonna be okay.

What are we going to do?

We're gonna have to

stay here, aren't we?

What if he gets inside?

Joe? Joe, Joe.

I'm really, really sorry

about your brother.

I'm really sorry, but we're

gonna have to do something.

We're gonna have

to sort something out.

The girls are scared.

I'm scared, Joe.

Joe, say something!

- Um--

- Joe.

Um... the phone call I made earlier.

Yeah, yeah?

You want me to call again?

No, no!

They can't help us.

- Why can't they help us?

- They... I don't know.

- Something happened.

- What happened?

There's people dying everywhere.

There's people dying,...

...and they said stay inside the house.

I don't know, man.

She got cut off, man.

- Aah!

- What?

There's so much blood!

Mikey, there was something

inside of there earlier.

Inside there.

No, no! From before.

I heard something.

- I swear to God.

- What the hell is going on?

What the hell is that?

What's the plan, Joe?

What's the plan?

I don't know!

I don't have a plan!

What are we gonna do?

I don't know! They said

board up the windows.

- I have no clue!

- What do we do about it?

We can't stay in here with that thing!

We can't go outside with stew!

Oh, my God.

Someone's here.

It's gonna be our way out.

They probably have

the same problem we do.

- Gas?

- Yeah.

But maybe not.

Where's Stew?

Sh*t.

Mikey, are you okay?

Yeah, yeah. It's just itchy.

Joe, we have to help them.

I'm gonna run out there.

I'll lead him away.

I'll go. I'll go.

I'm quicker than you.

- This is not a good idea.

- No, he's my brother.

He's my responsibility.

- Be careful.

- I will.

You get back here

in one piece, all right?

I will, all right?

Guys, that thing is still in here.

Don't touch that thing, all right?

Yeah, I don't think it's a problem.

It's too slow.

Oh, my God!

- I'll be right back, okay?

- Okay.

Three, two, one. Go!

Stew!

Guys, guys! Come on.

Quick, quick, quick.

Let's go, let's go.

Move it, move it, move it,

move it, move it!

- Come on, come on.

- Get in the house.

Come on, come on, come on.

Go.

You guys okay?

Thank you! Thank you.

I'm fine.

One of the fast ones bit me.

They bite hard.

You have no idea what

we've been through.

Looks like you've boarded up.

It was like this when we got here.

What's happening?

Where'd you come from?

We've been camping

for the last two weeks.

What was that?

Mikey, over there.

You let one of these in here with you?

We didn't let it in.

It was in here when we got here.
