Emeryville

Synopsis: Four college students, returning from spring break, crash their car in an isolated New England countryside. Stranded in middle of nowhere, they seek help in Emeryville - an old, dilapidated western village, off the map. A seemingly well-mannered village caretaker extends an offer of a place to stay the night until a mechanic can arrive the following morning. With nightfall quickly approaching, the group isn't left with a choice. As time passes, the new comers discover that Emeryville was once a ground for secret clinical experiments gone awry. It slowly becomes clear that the residents are far from normal and that their society abides by a set of rules. And one such rule is, "We keep the ones we need". Trapped in remote village miles from civilization & fearing for their lives, the group plots an escape. When the villagers realize that their escape could threaten Emeryville's very existence, the group finds themselves hunted by a strange breed of crazies

- It's a classic reaction.

They're like animals.

And they want me to

become one of them.

- Man, you shoulda seen him.

God, his face.

Must of aged 10 years in

just a matter of minutes.

- Mr. Gisbourne's computer.

The vault guardian himself.

- Okay, well to his credit,

it took over 87 seconds

to crack the vault.

You know what's the

longest it's ever taken me?

- You know there's an

official term for this, right?

It's called hacking.

- It's also called

living on the edge.

- You know you could

go to jail for that.

- Not until your caught.

And just for the record,

our great nation was

built by curious minds.

- Well, wasn't is curiosity

that killed the cat?

- That,

only applies to small minds.

You okay?

You know I worry about you.

- You don't have to.

- Yeah, I do.

You're my girl.

- Feels like I'm going crazy.

Think it'll come back?

- I think that

one day you'll figure it out.

- It's been three years.

- Jesus, haven't we

been through this?

I'm sorry I didn't mean it.

- I guess sensitivity

isn't something you can acquire.

- Sensitivity?

You know let me think.

I know someone,

a super good kid on prom night.

What was his name?

Oh yeah, Billy.

Poor little Billy.

- I was sick.

- Whoa, whoa, whoa,

whoa, wait a minute.

You asked bill

Grotowski to prom?

- It was middle school.

- Wait he didn't know that?

- You're such a jerk, Cole.

- I'm so sorry.

I thought everybody

knew about it.

- Great, that makes

me feel real good.

- Are you mad?

- Yes, I am.

- How mad is my baby?

- I'm pissed mad.

- I like it when you get mad.

- Could you stop?

You know this doesn't

look like a road anymore,

are you sure we're

going the right way?

- Yes, the GPS says two miles.

- It's been saying that

for the past 20 miles.

- No, it hasn't.

- Here,

try that.

- Are you kidding me?

- Go ahead.

- Same thing, two miles.

- Well it would help if

you held the map straight.

- I am holding it straight.

- Give it to me.

- Hey!

- You guys are already

acting like a married couple.

- Look out!

- Whoa!

- You okay?

- Did, did we kill him?

- I'm really sorry man.

I'm really sorry.

- Are you okay?

Go get water!

Water, now!

- Yeah, yeah, yeah.

- Are you okay?

- If my mother saw

this she'd be very upset.

- Your mother

should have warned you

about those blind spots.

Well, this is Reagan,

Christie, and Cole.

And you've met Justin.

- Ethan.

- You okay?

- I think so.

- It just,

I mean, we got lost, and,

Justin was Tryna,

- uh, no worries.

No harm done.

- Well what the hell are you

doing in the middle of nowhere?

- On my way to the next town.

- May, maybe you can

help us get there?

- Check the car.

- Well?

Are we screwed?

- Yep.

We're screwed.

- Alright.

Call for some help.

- Not happening.

- We've been driving for what,

30, 40 minutes?

- Yeah.

- When's the last time

someone saw a car pass by?

- Not me.

- Well, shoulda stayed

with the highway.

- GPS showed this

was the shortest way.

I was Tryna cut the distance.

- Cut the distance?

Doesn't look like we

did that now, does it?

- Oh Jesus guys, not right now.

Let's just try to stay positive.

Does anyone have any ideas?

- Well, it's a long

way back to the road.

- Guess that's

good for starters.

Any other ideas?

- We could start walking.

Find our way to the highway?

- Do you even know how

far the highway is?

- Uh, yeah.

The GPS said two miles.

- Right, the GPS, two miles.

- Oh you're map said

the same exact thing.

- My map?

- We just looked at it.

- You have no idea how

far the highway is, okay?

It could be,

- it could be way farther.

- Yeah, it just said,

- all I'm saying is if,

- two miles.

- Just wait here for two hours.

- No way.

- Or we walk for a

mile, to go find help.

In Emeryville.

- Emeryville?

- Emeryville?

- Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa,

wait a second, okay.

There's no mention of

an Emeryville here.

- Maybe it's too

small for the map.

- Too old to be on the map.

But it's worth the shot.

- Exactly.

I already like the

sound of it already.

I know.

A Marie ville.

- Okay, I'm not leaving the

road for some ghost town.

I just have a bad

feeling about this.

- Okay, and when

was the last time

you had a fire in your belly?

- Okay you clearly

haven't seen wrong turn.

If we go in there,

we may never get out.

- Justin.

The world is not out to get you.

- Okay, I see what

you're trying to do.

- I'm not trying to do anything.

We just,

we need help, and

there's people in there

that could help us.

- Does anybody else think

that we shouldn't go in there?

- He's right.

- Are you kidding me?

- See.

You should hand

out with her more,

than just going to those

malls all the time.

- Okay.

Fine, let's just wait it out.

- Hey did

anyone else just hear that?

Come on, we can't just sit

around here, and do nothing.

- For once,

I'm with her.

- Okay, how about

a show of hands.

All those in favor

of Emeryville,

raise your hand.

Do you really think it

could get any worse?

- There is another option.

- Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.

Okay, I'm not betting my

life at a toss of a coin.

- Heads, we go.

- I'm not going anywhere.

- You just agreed, we all did.

- No, I didn't.

- It's not a bad idea if

somebody just stayed behind,

and kept a look out.

Alright, let's get outta here.

- You okay to walk?

- Hey, you guys.

- They all died the

same day they were born.

- Some kind

of infantile disease.

- Jesus.

You don't look too good.

- Guys we have to turn back.

- We can't.

Look around, there's

no where else to go.

Where are we?

- 1898.

- There's a reason

why it never made the map.

- Oh my god, are you okay?

- I just,

save my baby.

- What?

- Someone just get a doctor.

Jesus, don't just stand there.

Jesus.

- Is she okay?

- Hey wait, no, no,

no, I'm not done yet.

- You're done.

- Hey I'm not done!

- Hello?

Anybody home?

Is there a mechanic around here?

Does he talk?

- Once dead.

The car is turn cut.

If a god or,

- enough Andy.

What can I do for you fellas?

- The radiator of

our car shot and,

we thought,

is there a mechanic?

- Not within a 20 mile radius.

- Safe to assume you guys

don't have much car trouble?

- We don't.

No motor vehicles here.

Never had 'em.

Don't need 'em.

- Can we use that?

- That's for emergencies only.

That's house rules.

- Are there any other

payphones around here?

- House rules doesn't mean

I can't make that call.

Who are you calling?

- Triple a.

- Triple a?

- Mechanic.

- Guess that can be arranged.

Howdy bird.

There's some city folks here.

Sure would appreciate

some help with their car.

Guess it'll have to

be tomorrow morning.

- Tomorrow's too late.

- Guess we'll have to

look for help elsewhere.

- Elsewhere's more than a walk.

- You folks wanna stay here.

- Not a choice, okay.

Sorry, let's go.

- Do you know what a pack of

hungry coyotes can do to you?

- What do you mean?

- A few weeks ago,

Aaron, our blacksmith's son,
