I went to the hospital just afterwards.

They wouldn't let me see him.

They said he'd killed somebody before.

And they said it might have been|an accident, but he killed somebody.

Sh*t.

And we're next, aren't we?

Come on. No.

Come on! Come on! I am.!

I'm trying to save your|life, for Christ's sake.

Get going. Here goes nothing.

Now listen to me.

I don't wanna get back on that train.

Nobody does.

But we have no choice. Nobody|can make it if we stay up here.

Couldn't find a thing.

Come on. We can't get on that train.

There are no roads up here. Now,|we'll put you all in one car.

With the killer!

Bullshit. We can walk.

You'll die.

At this temperature, you'll die.

What do you think you're|doing? He could be in here.

Lock, damn you.

F***in' animal.

He can't do this to me.

If you can keep your head while all about|you are losing theirs and blaming it on you.

We are gonna die|unless we get some help!

But I don't know who to trust anymore.

I don't even trust you.

You're so slow.

Presto "chango." The same little|sh*t. Good old Kenny Hampson.

I knew I never liked magic.

The magician?

We'll sit tight and when the train|stops, we'll play a trick on old Kenny.

The train is stopped. Then they better|start it up again 'cause it's gonna...

He's back there with all of|our friends! Let's hope so, huh?

I don't believe you.

He's gonna kill everybody!|We've gotta tell them!

I'm not movin'.

Every man for himself.

Alana, don't.

Don't! Let go of me!

Doc! Doc!

Please. Doc!

Doc!

Doc!

Hey, you there.!

Go back outside, miss.

Please?

Oh, sh*t.

No! No!

Help!

Mitchy.

Oh, Jesus Christ.

It's a joke. A goddamn practical joke.

We're the brothers of Sigma Phi|Omega, right? Brothers, remember?

That means we're gonna stick together.|We're gonna look out for each other.

We're gonna protect each other. Now get|on the train. Have you seen the conductor?

Anybody seen the conductor?

I know who it is. What?

Where's the conductor?|Back there. Come on.

God, it was cold out|there. My feet are numb.

I told you to stay in the car.

Well, they made me get off. I|mean, they had to search here.

Oh, I'm sorry. Is something missing?

Geez, I was scared out there.

I couldn't find you, and I'm thinking this|wacko's gonna jump out at me any minute.

Hey, I should have used one of these.

Yeah, this would have|done. What do you think?

Let's go back, Alana.|They'll be coming back. Doc?

It's okay. I'm with the prez. Damn it.

Yeah. Yeah, I know.

Well, whatever. Have you|ever shoveled any coal?

No. He's on the train.

Why isn't she lying down|somewhere? The magician!

Magician? I'll show you. Come on.

Doc's got the picture.

Doc, open up.

Open up in there, please.

Doc?

Doc? I just left him in there.

Keep her outside.

Don't go in there, miss.

Doc.!

You move out real quiet, darlin'.

Hey, what's going on?

We got the coffee maker workin', miss.

Come on.

Where is he? He's right back there.

Come on.

Ken?

They made coffee out here.|I'll bring you in a cup, okay?

What's going on, for Christ|sake? What's happening, huh?

This is only for your own safety.

I guess nobody's been in this|one for a couple of years.

You'll be able to get|some rest, yes, sir.

It's a little dusty in|here, but it's clean.

Come on in.

I hope you don't mind no|sheets and no pillowcases. No.

I'll get you some, though. No, please.

Okay, okay, don't worry.|I won't leave this car.

I'm gonna be right outside that door.

Come on now. Let us go, you guys.

Out of my f***ing way.

Let me through! What did you say, boy?

Say that again. Let us through|or we'll break the door down.

Shut up, all of you.

I said, move off, sir.

He killed a couple of ours.

You aim to kill him?

Give me the ax.

Before you go...

you take a look at the bodies|of some of your friends.

Is it worth that, son?

Well, is it worth it?

I'll check it out myself.

Hey, Ken.

Come on out here. I wanna talk to you.

Gotta turn the heat off back there.|You wanna come up to the lounge?

Gonna turn the lights off too.

No.

No. No.

Stop!

Kenny.

Kenny!

Kenny, please.

What happened?

He killed Mo.

Clear out! Get out of the way, you guys.

Back up! Come on. Back up, damn it.

Get out of the way. Come on!

Clear the way back there.

We'll be there in about 15 minutes.|Would you like a cup of coffee?

No, thanks.

Hi. Listen, why don't|you come on back now.

It's mellowed out and, well,|this place gives me the creeps.

Okay.

Why don't you come back and join the...

Join us. Come on.

There's the light.

Lord, that's beautiful.

Go back and start the report,|Charlie. I'll bring her on in.

Okay.

Got it? I got her.

Okay.

What the hell?

Hey, Alana.

Carne!

Oh, thank God. Charlie.

The magician's dead.

Jesus, I don't know who it is anymore.

No.

It was you.

Kenny, I'm sorry.

I never told you, I'm so sorry.

You haven't changed.

I saw your picture in the yearbook.

I never knew you liked magic.

I watched you tonight. You liked him.

No.

Kenny, you're better than he is.|I'm sure you're better than he is.

I am.

He didn't know how to|cut a woman into pieces.

You don't have to do this.

You don't have to do this.

Kiss me, Alana.

Kiss me, Kenny. Kiss me.

Kiss me.

Kiss me.
