The Frankenstein Theory Page #6

Synopsis: From the makers of The Last Exorcism comes a boldly original vision of horror. What if the most chilling novel of all time was actually based on a true account of a horrific experiment gone awry? When he is suspended from his university job for his outlandish ideas, Professor John Venkenheim leads a documentary film crew to the rim of the Arctic Circle in a desperate effort to vindicate his academic reputation. His theory: Mary Shelley's ghastly story, "Frankenstein," is, in fact, a work of non-fiction disguised as fantasy. In the vast, frozen wilderness, Venkenheim and his team search for the legendary monster, a creature mired in mystery and drenched in blood. What they find is an unspeakable truth more terrifying than any fiction...a nightmare from which there is no waking.

Let's get the f*** out of here.

Right now, we got to go.

Go get the f*** out of here!

What the f*** is happening?

[PANTING]

Hey, what's up?

He's dead.

Karl is dead!

No. What're you talking about?

It's your fault,

you motherf***er!

No! Stop!

Hey!

The one guy who knows

how to survive out here is dead.

It's your fault!

I tried to tell him.

What happened?

We are f***ed!

We tracked him into the forest.

There was a goddamn

bloody dead Karl.

His gun was smashed

next to him.

His gun?

F***ing gun.

The Creature felt threatened.

I tried to stop...

What f***ing creature...

There's some crazy person

in the forest killing people.

And you're talking about

Frankenstein, you psycho!

What's it gonna take

for you to believe me?

I don't care who it is!

All right!

No! No! No!

We are getting out of here

as quickly as possible.

I'm not going anywhere.

I'm not going anywhere.

Seriously?

I'm on the verge

of a great

scientific discovery.

I'm not going anywhere!

Are you kidding me?

Karl is dead!

Something is out there.

They're right,

they're right, Jonathan.

I know this is important to

you, but we have got to go.

There's a man dead,

for Christ's sake!

Come on, we have to go now!

Let him stay here.

Get your stuff.

What?

Go ahead.

Go.

With one remaining vehicle,

we can't travel as a group.

So Luke is going to go for help.

All right, bro.

Be careful.

The plan is that Luke is gonna

try to find the highway

and flag down help.

Be safe, Luke.

Bye.

It'll be okay.

He has a great sense

of direction.

VICKY:
It's our second night

at the yurt.

Luke left yesterday

and we don't know where he is.

We have no transportation.

To be honest, I'm not even sure

how to get back to the road,

at this point.

And, as you can hear,

there's a storm blowing outside.

Though I think that

even if we knew the direction,

we couldn't get to the road.

Obviously, our cell phones

don't work out here.

And most concerning,

Karl is dead.

And we're not exactly sure how,

but something is out there.

Just suppose for a second

it is the monster.

Then what?

JONATHAN:
It is him.

I promise you, it's him.

And the only chance we have is

to appeal to its humanity.

What humanity?

It's capable of reason,

he's not some mindless animal.

It reacts to fear

and anger.

I mean, this is something

that's been

searching for companionship

its whole life.

It's been rejected.

He is intelligent,

it will respond

to a sympathetic hand.

How? How do you know that?

You're just gonna

have to trust me.

I don't understand how anybody

could survive out there.

It's so cold.

Hopefully Luke will

make it back.

And we can expect

a rescue party tomorrow.

Regardless, the equipment was

rented out for five days.

So if we're not back in two days

they'll report us as missing.

They have a general idea

of where we are.

[LAUGHING]

ERIC:
What?

I forgot to pay my rent.

Jesus!

Andrew's gonna have to cover me.

He's gonna kill me.

BRIAN:
I can't stand it, man.

I got to get out of here.

Jesus! Oh, God!

I can't see anything.

How do you turn on

the night vision?

VICKY:
I don't know.

It's Luke's camera.

[GROWLING]

Oh, God, he's getting closer.

I got to get out of here.

I got to get out of here.

[VICKY CRYING]

Oh, I got it.

F***, I can't take this.

It's okay.

Its going to be okay, right?

Yes, its fine, don't move.

He didn't attack last night.

He's not going to do anything.

Why's he doing that?

I don't know.

[CLATTERING]

I think he's...

I think he's warning us.

He wants us to leave.

I want us to leave, too.

I know.

[BANGING]

Just...

We'll be fine.

Go back to sleep.

[GROWLING]

[VICKY CRYING]

[GROWLING]

[LOUD GROWL]

Okay, I think we're recording.

We're following Luke's tracks.

We haven't seen him since...

Since he left yesterday.

We've been walking...

I don't know how long.

We don't know

if Luke made it back.

So, we're just...

Hope we find him.

Stop, stop, stop. What is that?

Where? I don't see it.

Over there.

Brian, are you getting it?

Brian, you see that?

Over there. I don't know.

It could be the snowmobile.

VICKY:
Okay.

Do you see anything?

Luke?

There's something

behind the tree.

The one right by the line.

Luke!

Luke!

What the f***?

Do you see him?

Where is he?

His helmet's here.

Where is he?

There's no key! Luke!

Are those tracks?

What the f***?

All right, let's do a sweep.

He can't be far from here...

Split up, but stay in each

other's line of sight.

All right?

You want us to go

by ourselves?

Brian, cut the bullshit!

I've had enough of it.

There's four of us.

Let's just look for him,

he's got to be around here.

Everyone got that?

Keep each other

in your sights, got it?

Got it!

Luke!

Luke!

Luke!

[WIND HOWLING]

Luke!

Luke!

[HEAVY BREATHING]

F***!

Jesus!

Luke!

F*** me!

Luke!

F***...

Luke!

Buddy!

Luke! Guys!

Luke! Guys! Luke!

Luke. Luke...

No, no, no, no, no!

[GROWLING]

[BRIAN GROANS]

[BONES CRACKING]

ERIC:
The camera's over here.

VICKY:
What? Where is he?

No! Brian!

There's some blood over here.

What do you mean?

Oh, Christ! No.

Oh, my God!

Oh, God! Dammit.

What are you looking at?

What is it?

It's a footprint.

He was here.

He was definitely here.

Look at this.

Oh, my God!

Look at the space

between foot falls.

It's amazing.

Amazing?

What's amazing is that

we are in serious danger.

All right?

That thing took Brian.

Yes, I know that. I know that.

You don't think I know that?

All right, listen. We go

back to the yurt right away.

We don't wait.

We go back and wait for help.

What the f*** is wrong with you?

What's wrong with me?

I'm sorry, but Brian is

almost certainly dead.

Brian is dead.

If we don't leave right now,

we're dead, too.

What do you want to do?

Go after this?

No, we go to the yurt now!

We wait for help.

Or we wait for him

to come to us.

VICKY:
Can you zoom in

some more?

ERIC:
This is as close

as I can go.

The door is open.

That's not good.

[GROWLING]

Jesus Christ!

JONATHAN:
He's in there.

[LOUD GROWLING]

What the f*** do we do?

Well, he's...

He's clearly agitated.

You think?

I don't think...

I don't think we can

approach him right now.

I think it's a very bad idea.

We gotta do something.

It'll be night soon.

We can't stay out here.

We'll freeze to death.

Yeah, I know that.

Yeah, so get down there

and talk to him.

That's why we're here, right?

You're the expert.

You're to appeal

to his humanity.

Not now. He's too worked up.

VICKY:
We have to do something.

Okay. We wait.

Let's give him some time.

Either,

he will leave, or calm down.

[CLATTERING]

[GROWLING]

VICKY:
How much longer

can he go on like this?

[GROWLING]

ERIC:
I'm freezing.

I can't feel my hands.

VICKY:
Here give me the camera.

VICKY:
You all right?

ERIC:
Yeah, yeah.

[VICKY GASPS]

ERIC:
Oh, my God!

VICKY:
That's him isn't it?

JONATHAN:
Here's what

we're gonna do.

I'm gonna...

I'm going to call to him.
