- Your dreams always come true?

- Not exactly but pretty damned close.

Sh*t, Mike. Have you looked at her?

You know, we've been out here a long time.

Besides, it gets hard on the road.

Reg, you're thinking with your wrong head.

This girl, she's in danger.

OK, OK.

So, she's in danger,

with us or without us.

At least with us,

we can protect her, isn't that logical?

Yeah, in a horny sort of way,

I suppose it is.

Works for me.

- So, Chemy, where are you headed?

- To my home town, Perigord.

- It's about 20 miles down the interstate.

- Perigord, here we come.

Grandma?

Grandma?

Grandma?

If you want her, come.

Tonight.

Looks like a ghost town.

Things sure have changed since I left.

Oh, yeah? How long's that been?

I don't know, it must be ten years now.

We're gonna have to find

a place to hole up.

My uncle owns a bed and breakfast

on the other side of town.

You guys have been really nice to me

and I'm sure he'd give you a room.

That'd be great.

I've got them both.

Not my grandma.

Jesus. What the hell...?

I'm gonna go take a look around, OK?

Maybe we can get in a window.

- See it?

- Yeah.

Trapped, too scared to come out.

Nothing to do but watch and wait.

Yeah.

Damn! I can't believe

they just abandoned the place.

And I don't have a clue

as to how the hell we're gonna get in here.

Allow me.

We've been tracking this guy

a long time now.

And we're getting close.

Uh-huh.

Believe it or not,

you're gonna sleep safely tonight.

As long as I don't sleepwalk, right?

Well, just stay in bed.

We'll be back before dawn.

Will you wake me when you get back?

Sure.

Gravers.

I've seen them before, in my dreams.

They're the ones

that exhume the bodies for him.

Looks like just one.

- Yeah. I'll circle around and make sure.

- All right.

They have no need of your services.

Who are you

to question the word of God's servants?

You think that when you die,

you go to heaven.

You come to us.

For God's sake girl!

What are you doing here?

I've got to find my grandmother.

Your grandmother's gone.

He's taken them all.

- He's harvesting the entire town.

- What?

Your grandmother, your grandfather.

We've got to warn people!

What's that sound? You stay here.

Hello again.

And goodbye.

Elizabeth!

Elizabeth?

Elizabeth!

Oh, my God. Grandma.

Ow!

I'm sorry, Grandma.

Michael.

What the hell's going on here?

Er... Reg. This is Elizabeth.

- I'll get the car.

- OK.

Wow.

So, tell me what happened.

Well, the priest saved my life.

Just a few minutes later,

I saw him get sliced and diced by some...

- flying Cuisinart.

- So, you've seen it? His sphere?

She's seen it, Reg. I told you,

I had a funny feeling about this place.

They took my grandma

and turned her into some kind of...

Dwarf.

We've seen it before.

He crushes them down and...

ships them off to God knows where.

He got Mike's brother.

He got my whole family.

I don't think

we oughta wait around this place,

just waiting for him to come and get us.

You're right.

But I think we've only got

a couple more hours till daybreak.

The traps on the door should keep us safe.

I'll tell you what,

why don't we just get some shuteye?

And then we'll just bang outta here

in the morning.

Yeah, I could use some sleep.

Come on, I'll watch over you.

And I'll watch over you.

Michael...

I love you.

Her lips aren't moving.

- We're dreaming.

- Wow!

This is great!

We're different, Mike.

That's why he wants us.

We're the only ones

who can see what he's doing.

I prayed so hard that you would find me.

And you did.

I love you.

God, Reg, I love your head.

Whoo-hoo!

What the hell was that?

Reg?

The grenade went off.

Sh*t!

Forget it, Mike. There's nobody out there.

Looks like Chemy's uncle had a cat

or a dog, or something - I can't tell.

Reg, who are we kidding?

I'm a 19-year-old kid, you're a bald,

middle-aged ex-ice-cream vendor.

Thanks, Mike.

We can't kill him alone. There's no way.

How about our families?

Are we just gonna forget about them?

We're never gonna forget about them.

But, Reg, come on, we've got people

who are alive who are depending on us.

Mike!

Come on!

I'll get the gear.

Wait!

Reg! Wait, wait. Let me go with you, OK?

No way. Take Liz's car and drive south.

Now, go.

What's gonna happen to you?

How are you gonna find me?

I'll find you...

if I'm able.

What's that supposed to mean,

if you're able?

- All right, load up.

- You got it.

Well, shoot the f***er!

Reggie!

Ah, sh*t!

- Goddamn...

- Reg!

- Hey, hey.

- The seat belt's jammed. Give me a knife.

Oh, great.

Just give me the knife.

There's no sense in both of us frying.

- No way, pal.

- Come on.

I'm not leaving you now.

Damn it!

- I'm free, I'm clear.

- Come on, let's go!

Sh*t.

Come on.

Let's go kick some ass.

Here.

Ready?

Hydrochloric acid.

Let's see him try to reanimate anybody

that's embalmed with this sh*t.

Hey, Reg, come here.

What does that look like to you?

It's round and it's got a couple of slits

like one of those... brain suckers.

It's a keyhole.

This must be a doorway to his worid.

We gotta catch one of those things

so we can get in here.

Yeah, sure, Mike. You catch one.

Come on. We gotta find Liz.

All right, I'll take the north wing,

you take the south.

I'll meet you back here in 15 minutes.

Right.

Liz?

Come on, let's go!

Come on, you mother!

I think it stopped it.

Sh*t, I hope so.

Don't move, be still.

The metal should hold it.

I'll get the other door.

No!

Michael!

Come on, Mike, let's go, OK?

Come on.

- Are you OK?

- Yeah.

Come on.

God damn it.

Damn it.

Here, hold this.

- What the hell do you want with that?

- Don't worry.

- Be careful.

- Don't worry!

I'm hoping, as long as

it's embedded in flesh, it's safe.

- Hey!

- Oh!

Where's the rest of the guy?

I'll tell you later.

Here, I'll trade you.

Come on.

Here.

Right, let me have it.

All right, here goes.

Let me show you something.

Come on.

Let's torch this place

and get the hell outta here.

Mike, Mike!

Oh, God, oh!

Help!

Hey!

Suck on this.

Mike.

Come on, get the hell outta here.

- Chemy?

- Come on, get in. Let's go.

Come on!

Come on, get it, it's Chemy.

Whoo! Ya-hoo!

We nailed that son of a b*tch!

Hey, wait. Mike, check out that coffin and

make sure that whatever is in there is dead.

- Empty!

- That's the way I like 'em.

Hey, babe, you know, you could've run...

but thanks for sticking with us.

You know, I've been thinking about us...

Reg! Reg!

Reg! Reg!

Michael...

Listen to me. This is not happening.

We're gonna wake up, it's a dream.

It's only a dream.

No, it's not.
