Emeryville Page #3

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

- You're not making any sense.

You need to rest.

- No rest without the baby.

- Where is everyone?

- Praying,

for someone to help

us save the babies.

- It won't work.

- What's the

worst that can happen?

- They could die.

Just like the last ones,

and the ones before.

- It's called evolution.

You taught us that.

- I did?

- Our legacy, it must continue.

- Legacy?

You call this a legacy?

We're stuck here,

without a past,

and no future.

- You say we let 'em go?

- Yes, we let 'em go.

- So they can come back?

With people, with cameras.

- They'll never find us.

- They found us the first time.

We got lucky once,

with that little

friend of yours.

We live by the rules,

we survive by the rules.

And the first rule is?

- No one leaves.

- No one leaves.

They have a better

chance with you.

- And what about

the second rule?

We'll keep the ones we need.

- The medicine woman.

She dreamed with the children.

- She won't remember.

- If not her medicine,

her compassion we can use.

Perhaps we can make a deal.

- Deal?

- We tell you your name,

and where you come from.

- That would be nice.

- If you pray god will listen.

You just have to pray hard.

- No.

- You're our only hope!

- Justin!

Justin!

Let me in!

Open the door!

- Christie?

- Did she say anything?

- She said something

about some sounds.

- But nothing else?

- No.

- You know Christie

and how impulsive she is.

She probably just

went for a walk.

- Yeah, she's impulsive,

but not stupid.

We need to go out there.

We need to find her.

- And start where?

- I don't know.

I don't know,

- no, I think it's

best if we just wait for her.

- What if it was Reagen, huh?

- You're overreacting.

- Hell yeah I'm overreacting.

I'm surprised you're not.

Where the f*** have you,

been?

- They keep the ones they need.

- Pumpkin?

Pumpkin, what's wrong?

Hey, hey, hey, are you okay?

Hey pumpkin, hey it's me.

Say something, say anything.

Come on you're scaring

the sh*t out of me.

- Is she okay?

- I don't know.

Come on, say something.

I don't care what

you guys think,

but that's not Christie.

Did you hear how she sounded?

It's like she was possessed.

Something happened

to her out there.

Someone did that to her.

- Where are you going?

- To get some answers.

- From whom?

- I'll start with Smith.

- And how do you

expect to get them?

- Well Mr. Wesson could

be pretty persuasive.

- Where did you get that?

- Does it matter?

Move.

- Cole.

- Open up.

Open up you motherf***er!

I know you're in there!

- Ain't it too late

for you city folks?

- What happened to Christie?

- Something wrong with her?

- I don't know, I was

hoping you'd tell me.

She goes for a walk

in the village.

Next thing you know she comes

back like one of you people.

- Village after dark

can become a dangerous place.

- I need that.

- Like I said, house rules.

- I'm sure we can move

around them rules, can't we?

- How many bullets

you got in there?

- I got enough to

get me to that phone.

- You sure about that?

I hope your friend feels better.

- We need to get out of here.

- Can't we just

wait until morning?

I mean it's only a

few hours before,

- a few hour before

we're either dead,

or we turn into one of them.

- What if we just

locked ourselves in here?

- Look, you guys were right.

You and Reagen both.

We shouldn't be here.

But man it's too late.

What I saw out there is evil.

And it's sooner or later

before it comes looking for us.

- But if that's the case,

I mean aren't we

safer locked in here?

I mean,

come dawn we can just catch

a ride with the mechanic.

- If there really is one.

- What do you mean, we all

heard him on the phone.

- We heard his side

of the conversation.

- Cole, I'm not leaving her.

- Who's with me?

- What about Christie?

- We'll come back for her.

- No, Cole, I'm not leaving her.

- Yeah, well what

if they kill her.

- If they wanted her dead,

we wouldn't be

having this argument.

- We made a pact.

Friends don't leave

friends behind.

- We were kids.

We were stuck in the tree house.

- We made that promise.

You, made that promise.

- Yeah, you're right.

- There is one other option.

One of goes to find help.

- It's another

one of your brilliant ideas.

- No, no, let's hear him out.

- Earlier, when

we were out there,

we saw tire tracks, right?

And I'm telling you,

those tracks were not more

than a couple days old.

- Yeah, and what's your point?

- There's gotta be

a vehicle somewhere.

- Talk about some crazy idea.

You know, and even if

there is some escape

vehicle out there,

how are we gonna find it?

- We follow the tracks.

- We follow the tracks?

In the middle of the night?

- We have these.

- Yeah, and you also have

an entire f***ing village

watching you!

- I'm not sure there's

much of a choice here.

- I can't leave Christie.

- Tails, you leave.

- It's my turn.

- How do we

know you'll come back?

- I'm afraid you'll just

have to take that chance.

- You know the rules.

Without rules, there is chaos.

- Leave us alone!

- Others?

- Not very far.

- They can't all be the same.

There has to be an odd one out.

- What you mean like, someone

with an ounce of sanity left?

- Yeah.

- Like a minority would work.

- Where do you

think you're going?

- In search of sanity.

- I thought you'd never come.

- There's so many questions.

- There are no

answers, I'm afraid.

See that?

People believe a dream catcher

holds destiny to their future.

Ironical as it may same,

I'm looking for a past.

- I don't understand.

- For as long as I can remember,

which is not a lot,

I've been living in

this godforsaken place.

A few scraps of memories,

a flurry of dreams,

that's all I got.

I was hoping you could help

me make sense of it all.

- What makes you

think that I can?

- 'Cause you're always there,

in those dreams.

- Well what was the last

thing that you remember?

- Waking up.

- How long ago was that?

- Uh,

I've run out of space.

You're gonna have to help

me make sense of it all,

I'm afraid.

- I,

uh, okay.

Um, um, you got me.

You're Kowalski, um,

Dr. Kowalski,

quiet and compassionate.

- Yes.

Why would I kill you?

- There was an accident.

- What is your name?

- Reagen, Reagen.

- See for a moment,

you had me convinced.

All I wanted was your manual.

Goodbye Sarah Blake.

- No!

- What happened?

We gotta get outta here.

We gotta get outta,

we gotta get Christie!

We gotta get out of here now!

- Justin, calm down.

We can't get to the

house right now.

We have to wait for Ethan.

And we're still alive.

- Being alive doesn't feel

so great, now does it?

- Man do you

remember that party?

After senior prom?

Making out with those

Mckinnie sisters upstairs,

and their dad showed up?

What was his name again?

- Mr. Mckinnie.

- Yeah, Mr. Mckinnie.

Came hunting after us

with that double barrel?

- Yeah, yeah I remember.

- Do you think

that this is any worse?
