- It doesn't matter.

- Answer the f***ing question.

Handy, yeah?

So just... Just...

Every time you took

one of your work trips to Brighton,

you were going to see him?

Hm?

Yes.

I'm sorry.

- Charlie, where are you going?

- Leave him.

Classy.

Well, at least he knows now.

I just wanna go home.

Charlie.

- Wait up.

- Yeah.

- Just...

- I didn't know.

You're her best friend

and you knew nothing about it?

Mark's your best friend

and you didn't know.

Well, where are you going?

The receptionist has gotta be

around here somewhere.

- I just wanna go home.

- Hey.

I'm sorry that they did that to you.

(FAINT WHINING)

- Charlie.

- What?

I just heard something.

Hello?

- There's nothing here. Let's go.

- No, wait. I just heard something.

- You didn't hear anything.

- (FAINT WHINING)

I did. There. Did you hear that?

Really?

(NIKKI) Chris. Chris?

Sweetheart, what's up?

Chris. What are you doing in here?

Chris, what are you doing?

He's being stupid. Come on.

No, he's not. Are you all right?

Babe, look at me.

Oh, my God.

It's all right. It's all right. I'm here.

What happened? Hon?

(CHARLIE SNAPPING FINGERS)

(CHARLIE) Chris?

- (NIKKI) Hey.

- Chris.

Are you OK?

Stop it.

Babe.

What the. . .?

(NIKKI) What happened?

Tell me what happened.

(CHARLIE)

Give me his phone. I need some light.

There's nothing up here.

(CHARLIE GASPS)

(WHEEZING)

(SHELLEY) Nikki?

Nikki, what's wrong? Where's Charlie?

He's in there.

What the f***?

(MARK) What happened?

(SHELLEY) Chris.

The receptionist.

His face was ripped to pieces.

We are all going to die.

You think I don't know

who you're working for? Hm?

She sent you, didn't she?

I know she did.

(NIKKI) Guys, help!

I know your game, trying to creep up

on me. I've got eyes in the back of...

- (CHARLIE) What are you doing?

- You can't take me! Let go.

You send her a message from me.

You tell her

you can't get blood out of a stone.

(GROANS)

- Nikki, are you OK?

- Yeah.

Yeah, I'm OK.

I thought he was gonna kill me.

- (SHELLEY) Still breathing?

- Yeah.

But he's gonna have a hell of a headache

when he wakes up.

- What should we do with him?

- Kill him.

He killed the other guy,

was gonna kill me.

- Kill him.

- Classy.

And what exactly was he gonna do, Nikki?

Brush you to death?

Let's tie him up.

- (DAVID GRUNTING)

- (MARK) Hey, hey, hey!

Who are you?

Let me go. No.

It's not as much fun

being on the other side of it, is it?

Why did you kill that guy?

Why?

- Who are you?

- F*** you.

You might have found me,

but I'm not gonna tell you anything.

You tell that poison whore

to go f*** herself.

Which poison whore? Her?

(DAVID) My wife.

- Your wife?

- Who's your wife?

- Mary.

- (CHARLIE) Don't know her.

- That why you killed the receptionist?

- Kill?

- Yeah, you heard what she said. "Kill."

- But I didn't.

Well, I was just... See, I was just

coming downstairs to brush my teeth

- What the hell are you talking about?

- (DAVID) Hm?

Well, I live here.

You live here?

My wife, she didn't send you?

- Why would your wife send us?

- She divorced me.

She's trying to bleed me dry,

you see, yes.

She's not gonna get another f***ing

penny out of me. No f***ing way.

I moved all my stuff in here.

I live here now.

She's never gonna find me. Never.

When she attacked me, you see,

I thought my wife had sent her.

- Have you seen anyone else here tonight?

- No, not a soul.

- He doesn't look like a killer.

- How many have you met?

It does explain the slippers

and the dressing gown.

Nothing explains that dressing gown.

Do you have to make a joke

out of everything?

- You don't tell me anything any more.

- Can you shut...?

(CLANGING)

It's coming for us. It's coming for us.

We have to get out of here.

We have to...

We have to get out of here.

(SHELLEY) What is it, Chris?

Close the door.

Go.

I think it's gone.

(SCREAMS)

It's gonna kill us.

It's gonna f***ing kill us all.

Shh! Shh! Shh! Shh!

Shh! Shh! Shh! Shh!

(NIKKI) Chris!

(CREATURE SCREECHES)

(CREATURE CHITTERING)

(CHITTERING CONTINUES)

(ROARS)

(HEART BEATING)

(CREATURE GROWLS)

(ROARS)

- Won't be seeing him again.

- (SHELLEY) What are we gonna do?

- I just wanna get out of here.

- We can't because the shutters are down.

My unit's the best bet.

It locks from the inside. In case...

In case your wife found you here.

We get it. We get it.

- This way. Down here. Stairwell and up.

- (CHARLIE) Great, further from the exit.

My unit's up on level four.

We'll be safer up there.

Sh*t.

Where's the key?

- The key. The key's gone. Sh*t.

- Find it.

(RATTLING)

(CREATURE CHITTERING)

- (DAVID) Sh*t.

- Open the door.

- Open the door.

- Open the door.

- Come on. Open the door.

- I'm doing it. I'm doing it.

Come on!

(MARK) Come on.

It's coming.

(DAVID) The key is stuck.

(NIKKI) It's coming.

(CREATURE GROWLS)

Oh, f***.

What the hell was that?

It came from the plane.

I'd put money on it.

I've been following it

on the news all afternoon.

You see? There's no way

that was a normal cargo plane.

They've locked down half of London.

Military everywhere. Snipers, the lot.

(REPORTER ON TV) --another large

aircraft is heading for UK airspace

and has ignored

all known landing requests.

The MOD now have confirmed

fighter jets

have been scrambled

and are on an intercept mission.

In a surprising and alarming move,

tanks are on the streets of London.

They know there

was something on board.

Something top secret.

Something classified.

Something like that f***ing thing

out there.

Are we gonna listen to a guy who lives

in a storage unit and is clearly crazy?

You think the government

hasn't known about this for years?

Hello, perhaps you're the one who's

deranged. Did you not see the f***er?

Hm?

Whatever it is, it's out there,

on the loose,

and it's not exactly trying

to make friends with us, is it?

Okay, let's imagine for one second

that what you're saying

is even remotely possible.

What do you think it wants?

To survive, perhaps? I don't know.

F*** knows, I haven't got a clue.

- I can't hear it any more. Think it's gone?

- Maybe it's trying to find another way in.

- We need to get out of here before it does.

- (DAVID) The shutters are locked.

Even if we got out of here, we'd still

be trapped. Where would you go?

Wait. Remember...

Remember when we came in,

there was a guy outside, an engineer,

and he had that device

and the shutters were going up and down?

We find him, we find the device,

we can get out.

All the power systems and wiring

are in the basement.

If the engineer wanted to override

the system, he'd go down there.

Well, there's no way

I'm going back out there.

Hm? Sh*t, he's right.

What we need are weapons.

- Have you got weapons?

- Hm? No.

But I do know where to find some.

(SHELLEY) Other units.

But that still means

we have to go out there.

Not out. Up.

Okay. What you need to do

is you need to get to the far end.
