As Above, So Below Page #5
the first time someone
has shined
a light in this tunnel
for over 500 years.
It's the f***ing way out.
The treasure.
The treasure!
Someone give me a boost.
Be careful.
Scarlett, please be careful!
It's fine.
Careful.
Yeah. I'm good.
Scarlett?
Yeah.
What do you see?
My God!
My God!
What?
George, you have to see this!
My God!
What is this place?
He's dead.
Yeah.
He's dead,
but how is he not rotting?
I have no idea.
George, look at this.
What is that?
"VITRIOL."
Why VITRIOL?
It's the motto of alchemy.
VITRIOL?
Visit the interior
parts of the Earth,
by rectification thou shalt
find the hidden stone.
The hidden stone.
F***!
Is he dead?
Yeah.
For 700 years.
My God!
It's creepy.
Wait. Visit the interior
parts of the Earth.
He's telling us to go deeper.
I think it means we're here. No.
This has got to be the
interior parts of the Earth.
No, there has got to be more.
"Winged vulture leads your way,
with brightest
light in darkest day."
Brightest light in darkest day.
Everyone turn
off your headlamps.
Nah, f*** that.
Benji, it will be okay. There
is a dead man right there.
It will be okay.
Everyone.
Okay.
Scarlett?
Holy sh*t.
- Look!
- Yeah.
Where's this light coming
from if that's a wall?
Benji, turn your camera light on.
Please.
Scarlett, what are you doing?
I reckon we can
get through there.
Scarlett, what are you doing?
There's a loose stone.
Okay.
Can you see anything down there?
What is it? ZED:
Is something in there?I'm going.
What? Scarlett, no!
Scarlett!
My God.
Sh*t!
Get out of the way.
You're going?
Yeah.
Zed.
What?
Give me my bag.
Is this it?
It's real.
It's real.
Holy sh*t!
Scarlett.
Benji.
Let's not celebrate
until we're out of here.
Scarlett, how are
these torches still lit?
The philosopher's stone can
fuel a lamp for eternity.
Where is it?
Where's the stone?
"Brightest light in darkest day."
Think about it.
Brightest light.
Yeah.
The Sun.
In ancient Egypt, they
said that the Earth god
and the sky goddess
were madly in love.
But when they had their
first child, the Sun,
affections that he pushed them apart
so that they were
only able to touch
Every morning, the sky
goddess gave birth
to the Sun,
and every evening
she would swallow him back up.
That's it!
My God.
It looks so ordinary.
most valuable stone ever known
than next to riches
you could never miss?
Wait. It's a trap.
Stop! It's a trap!
Stop! It's a trap! Wait!
Is everyone okay?
Yeah.
Yeah, I'm good.
I am, yes.
Benji?
Scarlett?
I'm good!
Zed?
Let me see.
Souxie?
Souxie?
Souxie?
Souxie?
Souxie?
Souxie!
Get those rocks! Get her!
Sh*t!
Are you okay?
I'm okay.
Are you okay?
Okay, get her.
Sit. Are you hurt?
La Taupe?
Where's La Taupe?
La Taupe!
La Taupe!
La Taupe!
La Taupe!
Help me dig!
I don't think
that's a good idea.
He can't breathe!
Don't disturb the rocks!
George, they might
collapse on us!
F***!
We can't move the rocks.
We can't.
There's no use.
There's no use.
No use, Papillon?
No!
I need the first-aid kit.
I have to clean it.
No, don't touch it!
The packs are buried.
What do you mean they're buried?
They're buried!
Do we have anything?
Sorry, I'm sorry.
Where's our water?
Our food?
Do we have any batteries?
For the lights?
Yeah, we should start
conserving the lights.
Sh*t!
What do I do?
Just keep it up, so
that it stops bleeding.
Okay.
Okay. It's all right. It's okay.
This might sting.
Just a sting.
It's okay. It's okay.
Holy sh*t!
It really worked.
How did you do that?
It's the stone.
You okay?
Yeah.
It will be okay.
like this without a back door,
in case it collapsed, right?
Never. There's
gotta be something else.
Look around.
Everybody look around.
What are we looking for?
I don't know.
Is there anything?
Some bones.
What is that?
Is that something?
Yes. Yes. Yes. George!
What is it?
It's the Porta Alchemica.
This is the door to the mystical!
Wait. This is a door?
That's a door?
No, not exactly. It works
in conjunction with this.
Here.
This is
"As above, so below."
That phrase is believed
to be the key to all magic.
It means that
what is within me
is outside of me.
As it is on Earth,
so it is in heaven.
As I am, so are my cells,
so are my atoms, so is God.
Basically,
as I believe the world
to be, so it is.
I'm not following.
As above, so below.
So if they carved
a door on the ceiling...
There has got to be a
door on the floor, too.
Yeah. Someone hand me a rock.
All right.
Wait. We are in the
bottom of the catacombs.
There's nothing
below us, Scarlett.
Sh*t.
If this is the floor then where
is all that water going?
There's a way out.
Are you okay?
Yeah. Yeah.
Guys, there's a passage
down here.
Come down. It's okay.
Souxie.
Watch out, Benji.
Can you read that?
What does it say?
"Abandon all hope,
ye who enter here."
What?
According to mythology,
that's the inscription
over the gates of Hell.
What?
I'm not going in there.
I thought you didn't
believe in any of this.
I don't.
"And they shall be made
to enter
the kingdom of darkness."
Yeah, that occurred to me, too.
Yeah.
Sh*t.
F***.
It's exactly the same.
No. No, it's not.
It's not exactly the same.
Everything's
the wrong way around.
This is upside down.
Wait. No!
What?
No.
What the f***?
What happened to the entrance?
Jesus.
Are we dead?
No.
We're not dead.
We should just keep moving.
Okay?
We have to find a way out.
Come on.
Sh*t. Okay.
I go.
Souxie!
Souxie!
Is everybody out?
Yeah.
I don't have a light.
Do you have a light?
I can't find my light, either.
Do you see that?
Get the camera.
Be careful. Careful!
What is that?
Jesus.
Souxie.
No.
Souxie.
La Taupe?
La Taupe!
Are you okay?
La Taupe?
What the f***?
Sh*t!
Souxie, stay back!
Stay back!
Careful,
Benji. Careful.
The f*** is wrong with him?
What's wrong with him?
Hey.
It's okay.
- It's me.
- No, no, don't.
- Okay? Hey.
- Souxie, be careful.
La Taupe.
Souxie, don't.
His eyes.
Hey.
Souxie!
Souxie, no!
Benji!
Get a light on La Taupe!
Benji! He's over here!
Where is he?
Hold her head.
Where is he?
Where the f*** did he go?
The stone!
Bring her back, please!
It won't work. Fix her!
It will fix her!
Please try!
Try it! Please!
I'm trying. I'm sorry.
Fix her. Fix her.
It can't bring back the dead.
I'm sorry.
I'm sorry.
Is she dead?
I'm so sorry, man.
I'm so sorry.
We have to keep moving.
Okay?
George, you follow me. Yeah.
Okay.
Okay.
Are you okay?
Yeah.
Scarlett.
What?
What?
Everything is like the mirror image
of what we have already done,
but somehow,
we keep going deeper.
How much deeper?
Another 100 meters.
Putting us
1,000 feet down.
