Things aren't happening fast.
I won't be gone vety long.
If anybody comes, honk. Okay?
Are we safe?
Yes. It's weird here,

Please!
Does He speak to you, Isaac?
He speaks to me always.
But today he's displeased.
He's displeased with you,
Malachai.
What have I done?
Question Him not in vain.
Do you not know you sacrificed
Joseph without an offering?
And did you not spill the blood
of the old man...
when his oil and gasoline
We have our own fuel now
from the corn.
Sow not your pride, Malachai.
We have not enough.
Maybe He's displeased
that we have not offered Him...
- Sarah and Jobe.
- Sarah has the gift of sight.
She warned us of the coming
of the interlopers.
Question not my judgment,
Malachai.
I am the giver of His word.
Go you and bring me the husband.
We must offerthem tonight
when Amos leaves.
Sarah, come on.
Tell me what happened to her.
Look at me!
Think!
- What?
- Malachai.
Who's Malachai?
What do you mean?
Vicky?
Vicky?
Vicky?
Kill! Kill! Kill!
Kill! Kill! Kill!
Kill! Kill! Kill!

Nowthe blood of Amos
will be shared.
Stop it!
Stop that!
Hold the outlander!
What the hell is going on here?
Are you crazy?
What do you think you're doing?
My passage.
It's my birthday.
You've got a pretty sick way
of celebrating it, pal.
Silence, interloper!
Your presence profanes
this holy place.
- He will wreck with you.
- Great. I don't know who He is.
Maybe He'd like to discuss
what's going on here with me.
- It says it should be...
- Amos!
- It says it is written.
- Speak no more to him!
He is an unbeliever.
Hurry, get Isaac!
No! Wait!
Bring Malachai.
What do you mean: "As it's
written? "Written where?
What? In this?
Are you rewriting the whole thing
orthe parts that suit your needs?
- Back off!
- Sit down!
What do we have here?
Nineteen, eighteen...
What is this?
- Not died.
We go to Him the first night
of our nineteenth year.
Who the hell is Him?
He Who Walks
Behind The Rows.
Malachai comes!
Seize him!
Back off!
Seize him.
Do not let him escape.
Where is he?
Come on!
There he is. Go get him!
You! Go that way!
I need your help!
Come on!
Come on, help me
Help me!
Outlander!
He's here.
- Got you.
- This isn't a game.
Back off!
Outlander!
Go get him!
Check the doors!
Check the doors!
You guys go back to the alley.
You, overthere. You two follow me.
Sh*t!
Damn it!
Hey, mister!
I know a place to hide.
But we gotta hurry.
- Who are you?
- Jobe. Stop asking questions.
Come on!
Will you come on?
Careful.
Don't be a scared cat.
- Come on. It's only me and Sarah.
- Sarah?
Yes, my sister.
Isn't that nice?
My dad built it...
when the communists launched
theirfirst strike.
I don't think it's the communists
we have to worty about.
Don't worty.
Nobody knows about this place.
It's secret.
- Those guys are friends of yours?
- No way!
They listen to Isaac
and Malachai.
- Who are Isaac and Malachai?
- Isaac started the whole thing.
If he hadn't come,
this would never have happened.
When he was young,
he was a preacher...
They thought he had
a great spirit.
I thought he was weird.
We must sacrifice
them both tonight.
Amos will satisfy Him.
We need the woman.
- She'll bring the man to us.
- No.
He must be taken
without her.
from this place. It is holy.
We'll bring the Lord two
by using one.
Do not blaspheme, Malachai.
You know not the laws.
He speaks them only to me.
I think not, Isaac.
You are the one who's lost
favor with Him.
He's a God of blood
and sacrifice, not ceremonies.
Sacrilege!
Down on your knees, heretic!
Shut your mouth, Isaac!
You've grown proud farfrom us.
will decide yourfate.
Don't you sit there, seize him!
Punish him, cut him down.
I command you!
I am the word and the giver
of His laws.
Disobedience to me
is disobedience to Him.
Do it now oryour punishment
will be a thousand times...
a thousand deaths, each more
horrible than the last.
They're tired of yourtalk.
I've showed them what I can do.
Cut the woman down.
Put Isaac in her place.
We'll see howthe Lord
favors you.
Dare not to blaspheme.
He will punish you.
The God of hell will devouryou.
All of you!
No! No!
No! No!
When my dad wouldn't get up
I ran from Hansen...
to get Officer Hodgekiss.
But it was too late.
Why?
What happened to him?
He got away at that time.
He went to the barn
after he talked to the minister.
Minister?
- What happened to the minister?
- Malachai.
Outlander!
Outlander!
You, overthere.
He's coming.
You, overthere.
Outlander!
Outlander!
We have your woman.
She still lives.
Outlander!
Maybe you don't hear so well.
Her blood will spill
unless you give yourself up.
We won't wait much longer.
The night is coming.
Night is His time.
Outlander!
Come on!
Come on, outlander!
- Yes, you know where she is?
- They took her out to the clearing.
- What clearing? Where?
- In the corn field.
- Are you sure?
- Of course I'm sure.
I followed them,
just like I followed you.
Show me.
- Okay.
- Come on, let's go.
Okay.
Quiet.
Come on.
Follow me to the barn.
Careful.
I'm ready to celebrate
my birthday.
Malachai!
