Yeah.

Are you ready for a cherry, sir?

I'll get you a good one.

Here you go, Pop.

You got a little chocolate here.

She was doing it with everyone.

You hear me?

With everyone.

She told me.

She did everyone!

Nurse!

Nurse!

Oh, my God!

- Leah.

Leah.

Leah?

Are you all right?

I know where it is.

What?

The devil's throat.

The kids found it

when we first moved in.

I got two speeding tickets

trying to get here.

And I'm so sorry

I didn't believe you.

God, we have brilliant children.

Yes, we do.

Annie.

I'm going for a smoke break.

All right.

Yeah, hi.

Yeah, this is Sheriff Ferguson.

I had a question for Dr. Roth.

No, I understand.

Are you his assistant?

What I wanted to know was did he

treat the Massie children,

Tammy and Grady?

Look.

There's an edge.

Hey. Look.

Take this off.

- Help me lift this.

Lift. Lift.

Oh!

Oh!

Oh, my God.

Oh.

- Be careful.

- Oh, Jesus.

Annie, I'm here.

Hey, Rose.

Where's Annie?

I don't know.

She must have stepped out.

- Have a good one.

I'm gonna lower

the video camera.

See what's down there.

[Camera beeps]

It's on.

Here.

You know, it's getting dark.

Maybe we should come back

tomorrow.

Just five more minutes,

all right?

Then we'll go.

Night vision.

Okay.

Hold the light.

Down.

Here.

Okay.

It's down.

- Wait.

- What?

- I saw something. Go back.

- Where?

- Back a few frames.

- Back?

What is that?

Oh, my...

Oh, my God.

Do you read me?

Yeah, sheriff.

Sheriff, I read you.

Listen.

We found the devil's throat.

They're down there.

The bodies.

I'm at the house.

Where are you?

Uh, we're close by.

Listen.

Just take the back road.

Cut across the first field.

You're gonna see my truck.

I'll come meet you.

Okay. Over.

Sheriff, I don't see you.

Oh, my God.

Oh!

Sheriff, do you read me?

What is your position?

Devil's throat, Mr. Tilson.

Hi, Leah.

Leah!

Cooper!

Cooper!

Hang on!

Cooper, it's Dale!

It's Dale! It's Dale!

Look out!

Oh, Cooper!

Leah!

You're gonna be all right.

Grab that vine.

Oh!

I'm here, honey.

I'm here.

- I'm not gonna let you go.

- Cooper, he's up there!

Don't worry about that.

Come on.

Just get out of here.

Take another step, honey.

That's it.

Come on, honey.

Grab the rope.

Keep hold of the rope.

That's it.

Come on, baby.

That's it.

I got you.

Come on.

Ow! Careful!

We'll take the Jeep.

We'll get to a pay phone.

Call the sheriff.

I saw them!

I saw them in there!

Oh!

Oh, my God!

Son of a b*tch!

Let's get in the house.

What are we gonna do?

It's out of our control

right now. Come on.

Get on the table.

Let me see.

Is it cut?

Sh*t.

Cooper!

Leah!

You motherfuckers!

Give me the flashlight.

Go upstairs.

Hide.

- Go! Go! Go!

- I'll never go without you.

Come on, motherf***er!

Cooper?

Shh.

It's me.

Shh.

Let's go this way.

You scared the sh*t out of me.

Shh.

- Open it!

- It won't open!

- We're trapped!

Up.

Come on!

You guys should have stayed

in New York.

This isn't the place for you.

You know nothing about farming.

Dale, what are you doing?

What do you want?

It's a little too late

for "want," Leah.

"Do" is something, though.

What am I gonna do?

I'm gonna smash

both your skulls in

and throw you down

the devil's throat.

That's what I'm gonna do.

How'd you like it down there?

Huh?

Did you see my family

down there?

Did you meet them?

What?

You gonna throw those at me?

Whoa!

Try and hit me, Leah.

Oh, f***!

No good, Cooper.

I could have f***ed her

anytime I wanted to.

Just like the rest of them.

Bunch of f***ing whores.

No!

Whoops.

Did I hear a bone crack, Coop?

Let me tell you

what's gonna happen.

It's only fair

that you should know.

It's gonna be real quick.

Real painless.

A blow to each of your heads.

And then I'm gonna throw

your bodies down that hole.

It's that simple.

I got a question for you,

though.

Do you think I'm nuts?

Quick.

Yes or no?

No.

Wrong.

I got another question.

Yeah.

You know what?

F*** it.

F*** it.

Let's just do this.

Get up.

I said get up!

Now!

You got anything

you want to say?

Any last words?

Keep it tight, Leah!

Looking for this?

Huh?

Keep those legs down!

What's the matter, Dale?

Did I hear a bone crack?

How's it feel, Dale?

You f***!

Get out of my house!

Richard Jefferies

John Richard Jefferies (6 November 1848 – 14 August 1887) was an English nature writer, noted for his depiction of English rural life in essays, books of natural history, and novels. His childhood on a small Wiltshire farm had a great influence on him and provides the background to all his major works of fiction. Jefferies's corpus of writings includes a diversity of genres and topics, including Bevis (1882), a classic children's book, and After London (1885), an early work of science fiction. For much of his adult life, he suffered from tuberculosis, and his struggles with the illness and with poverty also play a role in his writing. Jefferies valued and cultivated an intensity of feeling in his experience of the world around him, a cultivation that he describes in detail in The Story of My Heart (1883). This work, an introspective depiction of his thoughts and feelings on the world, gained him the reputation of a nature mystic at the time. But it is his success in conveying his awareness of nature and people within it, both in his fiction and in essay collections such as The Amateur Poacher (1879) and Round About a Great Estate (1880), that has drawn most admirers. Walter Besant wrote of his reaction on first reading Jefferies: "Why, we must have been blind all our lives; here were the most wonderful things possible going on under our very noses, but we saw them not." more…
