- No..no, it can't be him...

Fire into the window... Fire!

What's in the name of all

that is holy...

brought into our village?

- There he is! - Come on...

- After him both of you.

- Yes, sir! Let's go.

- He has gone into the woods.

I promised each and everyone

of you here now...

I will see justice delivered!

I, Count Rudolph of Breslau,

will destroy that beast.

Otto?

Otto, what's the matter?

- I've to...

- You've to what?

- ... talk to him.

- Who?

- I have to...

- Someone... help me!

Help me get him home.

There, we got him there.

And so they went off after

the Beast.

At the very minute when I could

do nothing to stop them.

I've been afraid of something

like these for years.

And now that it come,

I was helpless.

And without me, I knew...

... the Beast was doom.

You must rest.

He needs me...

He needs me...

What are you talking about?

That thing just killed Dr. Thorne.

No, no...

you don't...

you don't understand...

Please sheriff, get some rest.

What's going on?

Keep your eyes open, men!

Don't miss anything.

It won't get away.

There's no place.

This isn't a tea party, gentlemen!

Let's keep it moving!

Let's have a look over there.

Come on!

Alright, ... hold your place.

Come on... keep moving!

Got any water left

in your skin?

Yeah, I think so.

Hold on a second.

We've been out here a long time.

Come! Come on!

Let's have a look over

this side, come on!

Is anybody here?

The Beast killed the doctor.

I can't believe it!

I saw him tear a man head

right from his body.

- You see what?

- I saw the body.

Otto sent me.

Otto... Sheriff Otto, in the village.

- Otto?

- Yes, Otto.

He is very sick.

He couldn't come.

But he is worried about you.

He used to bring me food...

when I was small.

Come on, yah! Move on!

Come on... keep it moving.

Come on!

It was you who saved me

from the wolf, wasn't it?

With the crossbow.

Yes.

And then you turned and

fire a crossbow at me.

Why would you do that?

To make you... go away.

I did not want you to see me!

Why did you kill those people,

tear them to pieces?

What people?

I have kill no people.

Someone killed them.

- I saw Dr. Thorne torn apart.

- I kill to eat.

Only to eat!

- Ask Otto.

- Otto said you didn't kill them.

But he is sick. He is very ill.

That's why I came.

You've brought hunters to kill me,

haven't you?

No... no, I didn't!

You stay here!

- Stay here! Don't move!

- Please...

No! You got it all wrong! No!

Run!

Oh my God, no!

I had nothing to do with this.

It was a creature, a troll.

A troll?

Does this look like my work?

Does it?

I am a hunter, with a crossbow.

I don't have a speck of

blood on me.

I did not bring these men here.

I believe and trust you.

I wouldn't trust that ambitious

rat Rudolph though.

As fa as I am concerned,

Count Rudolph can rot in hell.

So who are you?

What's your name?

- Beast. - No, that's just

what they called you.

What's your real name?

Drink this.

You must have a name.

If i have,

I don't know what it is.

Well someone must know.

Perhaps Sheriff Otto.

- Did he bring you here?

- I don't know.

All I know is he used to come

here when I was small.

He taught me to hunt.

He was... he was good to me.

Did he give you this?

I don't know.

I don't think so.

I think I always had that,

since I was a baby.

What is this pattern around the rim?

My pattern.

You are very clever.

I have a lot of time on

my hands in the winter.

When the wind howls

and the snow falls...

I sit by the fire and carved.

The pattern of the Beast.

Don't call yourself that.

But it is what I am.

Sack them dog. Pour it!

Get out!

I hope that was for me,

but perhaps we could share it.

As a kind of...

loving cup.

A pledge of our future partnership.

- What the hell are you doing here?

- I've come to soothe you.

I understand you had

a very trying afternoon.

What the hell do you know

about my day?

Everything cousin.

You see that monster,

was my creation.

The Beast?

It wasn't the Beast that killed

the doctor or your men.

- Then what was it?

- It was my troll.

A vicious maniacal killing

machine control only by me.

With a little help from this.

- A troll?

- Yes!

And unless you pledge your

trust to me, dear Rudolph...

that troll will ensured

you never get anywhere

near the throne of our

beloved country.

So what are you going

to do now?

- Do?

- Well, you can't stay here anymore.

They'll just send more men

to kill you.

Do you've somewhere else

you can hide?

I have a shelter up between

the hills.

Yes... stay there hidden

until I come back.

- You'll never come back.

- Of course I will.

- Why?

- What do you mean, why?

You don't have to pretend

you want to see me again.

You have had some horrible

things happened to you.

I guess I feel like some of

it is my fault.

So Count, what will it be?

Are we partners or not?

Let's say I entertain the idea

and you call off the troll,

how's that help me get

the throne?

Well, hope you catch the Beast.

The Beast is famous...

If you were to bring him down, the

whole kingdom will look up to you.

And you and I will ascend

the throne.

How in the world can I

possibly trust you?

That's simple...

I need you.

They will not allowed a

woman to rule alone.

But with you by my side,

anything is possible.

And without me,

you don't stand a chance.

Here's to a great partnership.

I drink to success, milady.

I haven't decided on the

partnership yet.

- My lord?

- Come!

Sorry to disturb you, Count.

You told us to bring

any news as soon as it came.

We found this one coming

out of the forest.

Well, well, well... if it isn't

my little spitfire.

Washer woman daughter, right?

I believe you and I have

a little unfinished business.

You know this woman, Count?

She's the one who alerted us

to the Beast rampage.

Then had objection when I

took her with me to go find it.

What I objected to was

you fondling me

like some lecherous old goat.

Well, is that what you

think of him?

Let me look at you.

I can see why Count Rudolph

got so excited.

You're quite a beauty, ain't you?

And you saw the Beast?

- I said did you see the Beast.

- I've nothing to say to you!

How dare you speak to your

superior like that, you tramp?

What did you see?

I believe the "rack" might loosen

her tongue, milady.

Oh no, there's no need

for that, Count.

I have much better methods.

Oh yes...

show me more.

Is that possible?

What is it?

I thought it was dead!

You thought what was dead?

The monster?

What is this?

It is just a hair, milady.

But it's not one of her's.

I'm done with her now.

But I haven't yet. Take her to

the dungeon and secured her.

- I'll be down later.

- Alright you... come along.

She is still under, sir.

She'll comes around soon enough.

And then wish she hadn't.

Take her away.

- That beast must be killed.

- You speak the obvious, milady.

No, there is another reason.

It could be that the animal

known as the Beast,
