- Can I trust you?

- Obviously!

So here goes.

I need to kill someone.

What are you talking about?

I've got to kill someone

and you've got to help.

Who?

Someone. I'll tell you.

You're crazy, Alice!

Kill someone?

We'll need to talk about it later,

I've got class.

It's important. I'm not joking.

I'll explain. OK?

I don't know...

Tomorrow, my house.

Please, mister...

Please, mister...

Can't you see I'm reading?

We didn't do anything.

Dirty little liar.

You and your girlfriend will pay.

Alice, get a grip!

This isn't the time to lose it!

We've got to do something.

Why? We're f***ed now.

Come on, that's too easy.

You got us into this,

you've got to get us out.

Forget it.

He has my diary, he'll turn us in.

We're going to prison, Luc.

Get out of there!

No, first the boy!

What about me!

Open up!

- Shut up!

- Let me out!

Help me!

So, my little rabbit,

you think you're smart.

Don't be afraid.

Be a big boy and maybe

I'll let you and your girlfriend go.

Leave him alone,

he didn't do anything.

I'm the one.

Can I have something to drink?

Go ahead.

And heat up some water.

That's it.

Pass me the towel.

Dry me off.

Your turn.

But I'm not dirty...

Don't argue, get undressed!

Your name is Luc?

How old are you?

Seventeen.

Do you like rabbit?

You'll learn to like it.

What's his name?

Said. I'll show you his picture.

That's him.

Oh, I know him. He's a big a**hole.

More like a major dick!

Why?

Promise you'll never repeat

this secret?

I promise.

A month ago, Said dragged me

into the basement of his building.

What for?

Let me finish, you'll see.

We were already together!

OK, I won't tell you.

It was like a maze where he took me.

He started kissing me

and feeling me up.

I didn't want to anymore.

You mean you had wanted to?

Stop thinking about yourself.

This is serious, Luc.

What happened was terrible.

I'm sorry.

So, I didn't want Said

to touch me anymore.

I just wanted to leave,

go home.

But Said got upset.

He said not to move,

twisted my arm.

Four of his friends came,

wearing ski-masks.

What did they do?

They raped me.

All four. One after the other.

I struggled, but it was no use.

It just got them more excited.

They had me pinned down.

So I just let them. I was crying.

Did Said also...

No, he didn't touch me.

He watched and jacked off.

He had a camera.

He kept taking pictures.

- What'd he do with them?

- Don't know.

He said I'd get them

if I slept with him.

Why didn't you tell the cops?

Nobody would believe me.

You see why I want to kill him now?

I need you, Luc.

I don't know, Alice.

Killing someone...

I could beat the sh*t out of him.

You think that would fix everything?

Do it for me, Luc. For love.

Dinner's on.

I'm not hungry.

Come sit down!

I'm tied up.

I'm hungry too!

Can I give her mine?

I don't like rabbit...

Eat! You need to fatten up.

If you want to eat us,

you'll need to fatten Alice too.

Listen, kid.

You need to understand this.

I like my girls dry,

with just muscle

and skin on their bones.

Whereas I prefer my boys

nice and plump.

So eat!

I can't take it anymore.

Disappear, quick!

You piss like that?

How do you piss?

I don't know. But you piss wrong.

Piss straight.

Stop looking! Mind your own dick.

Every dick for himself.

- You coming, Luc?

- Yeah.

- That's the virgin.

- That's him?

He's cute.

Hey Virgin, go get laid!

Shut up!

How'd you do it?

Like I told you.

Nobody saw you?

Nobody.

Hands off.

It's beautiful.

It's so great!

I love when you take charge.

Really?

Yeah, it turns me on.

You know what I want?

Can't you guess?

I want you to f*** me.

You afraid?

I said I wasn't!

Then come on.

You hurt me.

I'm sorry.

What?

I can't do it.

Are you upset?

No, I'm getting used to it.

But don't be surprised

if I go elsewhere.

I can loan you some porno tapes.

It might help.

That's not necessary.

I'll make it.

Come here.

You know your life is ruined?

Why?

Because you and your girlfriend

committed murder.

Are you a cop?

No.

So?

I don't have to be a cop

to know right from wrong.

Why did you dig up Said's body?

To help you.

What are you going to do?

Nothing bad.

Just let it happen.

We can't just do it.

We've got to plan it.

But everything's ready, why wait?

Think of the photos!

Are you scared or what?

No, but...

Don't worry, Luc.

You know he wants to f*** me.

We'll take advantage of that.

Trust me, OK?

Yeah, OK.

You hungry?

Yeah...

What is it?

It's good, eat!

Kill him. Get a knife.

The big one.

Go on!

Careful!

What have you got?

Uh, nothing.

Nothing? Liar!

Put it down.

- Play with your girl.

- Leave him!

- That'll teach you.

- Bastard!

Leave him alone!

Shut up!

Leave her alone!

Next time,

I'll keep you on the leash.

You crying?

You must be happy. You did it.

Did what?

You came!

What do you mean?

I'm not making fun of you.

It's great.

I'm hungry.

Eat a rat.

Or eat Said.

What's wrong?

Said's body...

is missing a leg.

What?

He's an ogre.

I'm thirsty, I'm thirsty,

I'm thirsty...

Shut up!

Think about something else.

What now?

Only you can help us.

What?

You've got to seduce him.

It's easy.

We'll do like we did with Said.

We're gonna die, we're gonna die...

He must be in there.

Here I go.

- You're here already?

- I couldn't wait.

Wait, I'll get dressed.

Why bother?

Are you in heat?

Could be.

You still want to f*** me?

Isn't that why you're here?

Among other things.

What's your virgin say?

Nothing. I've been

driving him nuts about it.

He just wants us to do it,

once and for all.

Chicken? Don't want to?

- Of course I do!

- So?

Said's body, brown and strong,

Skin iridescent and hairless

Light scent of sweat

Fresh, salty, warm, spicy

Skin soft and smooth, veins showing

under tense, tight muscles

When blade penetrates flesh,

the body shakes,

twists and writhes

Dark red blood spurts like sperm

Burning stain

Last jolt,

breath of life extinguished

Then nothing.

Empty eyes, staring white.

Saliva frozen, cold invades

Said's body, dead,

killed, assassinated.

We look at each other, breathless.

Luc, I love you.

He's still hard.

It's the blood.

We did it.

- I can't find the pictures!

- What pictures?

They're not here!

They never existed, stupid!

Did the basement exist?

No.

Chickening out?

Want to call the cops?

This is all wrong!

What are we going to do?

Like we said.

We're murderers!

So? You want to go to jail?

Listen, I'm right.

We'll do what we said.

But why?

He wanted to f*** me.

He deserved it.

You were wonderful. The best

thing anyone ever did for me!

- Shut up!

- But I love you.

It's true. I love you more

and more each minute.

I'll love you till the day I die.

Luc, come up!

I've got to go.

Come here.

I'm thirsty.

I'm thirsty.

What's wrong with you?

Why didn't you let me kill him?

Isn't it enough?

He's got my diary, a**hole,

I wrote everything!

No matter what, we're f***ed.

You're such a loser!
