Silent Warnings Page #5

Iron.

- Oh, my god!

- What?

Guys, iron!

This entire place is surrounded

with iron!

- What's hanging over the door?

- It's a horseshoe, baby!

- Everybody's got one out here.

- Every single door in town.

- Yeah, but why?

- Horseshoes are for good luck.

No, it's not the horseshoe,

it's the iron. It wards off bad spirits.

Guys, just come with me to the attic

for a second.

I have something to show you.

Go, Maureen.

In response to your ten-sixty five, I have

confirmation of the address for one...

...Iris Doyle, parents William and Rose Doyle.

Hold on a minute.

Oh my god!

Why didn't you say something

about this?

I don't know.

I just kind of thought

that Joe lost his mind, you know?

Didrt want to freak you guys out.

Look, Katrina, this is iron.

What were you saying about that?

In mythology, iron is the bane of demons.

Ok, so... what does that mean?

- It kills them.

- Wait,

these are pictures of aliens.

Some people believe that our

concept of aliens...

...stems from ancient legends

about demons.

It's the same creature,

just a different name.

Look at these eyes.

That's what I saw outside Iris' window!

- Sh*t...

- Jesus!

Is that some sort of hand or something?

- No, it's too long...

- Is that from an animal?

Jesus! Look at those claws!

No, I don't think so...

Is that thing even real?

It looks like it got twin thumbs.

Wait, there's some kind of band

on the bottom of it.

It looks metal...

It's like...

...some kind of...

pattern or...

What do you think it is?

I think this is from

like another planet.

Guys, this is amazing!

- It just moved!

- Hell no, hell no!

What the hell was that?

I don't know, but whatever it is,

I ain't sticking around to find out.

Let's get the hell outta here.

Okay, you guys can talk science

fiction all you want.

- I'm calling the sheriff.

- Dude, screw the sheriff...

Let's get the hell out of here, ok?

Let's go!

- Come on!

- Did you guys see that?

- Oh no, you're not staying. Go. Come on!

- Oh my, that was...

- You ready to go?

- No!

Dude, talk to your girl.

- No way, baby, let's go!

- No, I don't wanna go.

- What's going on?

- She wants to stay.

She thinks they're friendly.

- Trina!

- Why wouldn't they be?

Baby, you saw the claws on that thing.

It didn't look friendly to me.

Just think of how advanced

they are, ok?

- And all the things...

- Listen to me.

History's full of advanced civilizations...

...coming in and wiping out

developing ones.

Ok, all we can do right now is

get out of here.

So, let's let somebody else

figure it out, ok?

- Ok?

- Iris is still missing.

- Oh my god!

- Sh*t!

Jesus.

- Get some water, get some water!

- Am I glad to see you, guys...

Son of a b*tch blind-sided me in the

corn field; tore me up pretty good.

Thanks.

What the hell are those things?

I clocked him one.

Knocked him flat on his ass.

Oh, god! Something's happening...

- Let's get out of here.

- Jesus Christ!

- I just got here!

- Oh my god!

Get in the car, Mace!

Open the door! Open the door!

It won't start, it won't start.

Katrina! Katrina!

Go in the house!

Oh sh*t! Get off! Get off!

Oh, sh*t!

Get out of there!

Maurice! Maurice!

Oh, sh*t!

Let go of me! Where is he?

No, wait, wait! Where is Maurice?

Where is Maurice?

How could you leave him out there?

You call yourself a Sheriff?

I can't believe this is happening!

Maybe he is gone.

We need some weapons.

Here.

Take it!

I was hoping for something a little

bigger than this!

- Yeah, but it's iron...

- You guys, iron!

This entire house was covered

in iron when we got here.

And we took it all away...

- What the hell are you all talking about?

- It's a theory.

What is?

That iron is the only thing that would kill

these things!

- How do you know that?

- IT'S A THEORY!

Alright!

I was up in the attic,

I found these tapes belonging to Joe

He talked about these aliens...

...and how iron was the only thing

that affected them.

They're here.

They're moving!

- Oh my god! Oh my god!

- Why aren't they doing anything?

- Maybe they can't.

- What do you mean, "they can't"?

I don't know.

What do I look like a Trekkie?

What is that?

Get away from the window!

- Come on!

- They are coming!

Oh, god! Get back here!

Get back, get back!

You know this won't do anything,

don't you?

Yeah, Joe put iron filings in

some of the shells.

The problem is I don't which ones.

Use all of them.

Holy sh*t!

Stephen!

I guess you were right.

You son of a b*tch!

Oh my god!

I can't believe that just happened.

Let's board up these windows.

Come on!

Here.

I love you. I love you.

Oh yeah, I think you need

a little iron in your diet.

Stephen, no!

Oh my god, no!

No! Oh my god!

- Oh my God.

- No, no!

Please, please! No, noooo!

Anything?

No, nothing.

Sheriff, we gotta do something, ok?

We are sitting ducks here.

Our options are limited,

and we know they can get in the house.

See that doesn't make any sense.

Why, why now?

They never tried to do it before.

We are missing something.

I mean, what do we know?

What are the...

What do you remember?

What are the facts?

What are the certainties?

Every time we found this crop circle,

there was this smell of... of ozone,

and it seemed like they were using the

circles as a way to get around, but...

they never used it to get in the house.

Until the transformer blew.

- Electricity?

- Yeah, it all makes sense.

Joe had obviously created some sort of

electromagnetic field around the house.

That's it! That's it!

Electricity obviously jams their signal,

so they can't transport back and forth,

you know, that's why they appear

in places like this...

- Whatever! We need the power on?

- Yes!

- Okay, fine.

- That's our only chance.

But we don't have a transformer.

Yes we do. We have a back-up

generator in the shed.

Here, well, take the shotgun.

Keep it.

We can hold these bastards off.

Come on!

Hey... wow

What's wrong?

I love you!

I love you too.

I'm so sorry I've never said it.

Oh, god!

Wait!

- Get this thing going!

- I'm trying!

- I think they're coming!

- Why? What's wrong?

Just trust me!

- Oh God, what's wrong?

- It's too late...

No.

- Katrina.

- Katrina

Get her out of here!

- Don't leave her, please!

- Come on! Come on!

Here! Take this!

Let's go!

Run!

- Meet me at the van!

- No!

Go! Go!

- What are you doing?

- Trying to give them a fighting chance.

- We've gotta get out of here!

- Come on! Come on!

Get out of here!

Move! Get out of here!

- Oh, sh*t!

- Something's happening?

There'll be hundreds of them...

Come on... Come on! F***!

- What did you do?

- I just jammed their signal.

- Go!

- I'm going!

- Come on, go!

- I'm going!

Oh my god!

Come on!

Oh my god!

Babe, you ok?

Let's get out of here! Let's go.

- Jesus Christ.

- Oh my god! Katrina!

Get in the car!

Get in the car!

Oh my god! Go!

Go, go, go!

I love you.
