what do we do?

I can help.

Find somewhere dry for a start,

clean and dress the wound.

Give me that, give me that.

The mill, we go to the mill.

Are you nuts? Look, maybe

that's where the killer lives.

We should keep a

very close eye on her

in case she harms herself or

the others, the state she's in.

I'll keep an eye on her, okay?

Come on.

Excuse me, Rubysan.

Hey, Jennifer was it?

Yeah, we're going now,

you'll be safe with us, okay?

- Listen, over there...

- Shut up.

Okay, let's go

my Chinese friend.

[thunder rumbles]

[dog barks]

[dog barks]

Meguyan!

[Abe] Okay, maybe

the windmill is too far.

- Let's get in there.

- [woman] What?

- [man 1] Oh, you're joking.

- [man 2] No we need to call

an ambulance.

There won't be a phone in there.

Listen, I go to the mill, yeah?

You go in there,

take care of his wound.

I go and ask for help, okay?

You go in there,

you go in there.

And don't worry,

the miller will help us.

I'll be back in no time.

[Jennifer]

Ruby, I'm not sure about this.

[Ruby]

Come on Jennifer, let's go.

[Curt] Dad, I'm cold.

[man] I know, I know, Curt,

you're gonna be fine,

I promise, rest up in here.

Hold on, Curt,

hold on, I'll go in first.

- [Curt] Careful.

- [Ruby] You okay?

- Watch your step.

- [man] Ah, god dammit.

[Curt] Dad?

I don't like it here.

It's dry.

- What is this place?

- A church, I think.

Well, Douglas, maybe you

could get the stove going

- and I'll have a

look at Curt's hand.

- [Douglas] Sure.

[Ruby] I'll find something

we can use to dress the wound.

Thank you,

that'd be very helpful.

- You okay?

- Yes, all right.

It's deep,

but it's not too bad,

you'll be all right, just don't

move around too much, okay?

[Ruby] Hey, guys,

I found some old suitcases

with clothes we can use.

[Douglas]

Can you just hurry up, please?

[Ruby] Who would leave

this stuff here, so strange.

[Douglas] Anyone got a light?

- [doctor] No.

- [Ruby] No.

[sighs]

Here.

Can use this?

[beep pulses]

Oh, polyester,

it has to be cotton, yes?

Here is cotton.

Thank you.

[fire roars]

[doctor] This might hurt a bit,

I'll try not to make it

too tight.

- [Curt grunts]

- [Ruby] It's okay...

- [Curt grunts]

- [wood clatters]

[Douglas] Well?

Nobody home,

all doors were closed.

So what's the plan then, huh?

What do we do now?

What do we do now?

- Don't look at me.

- What do you mean

don't look at you,

my son needs medical attention,

what do we do now?

Keep it up.

Douglas,

he's in no eminent danger,

as long as he keeps still,

he'll be all right.

Right, I'm supposed

to be comforted by that.

We must stay here,

at least until the morning.

What about Jack, hm?

He's still out there somewhere,

don't we need to find him?

Hang on, hang on,

where's Takashi?

[thunder claps]

Meguyan!

[dog barks]

[metal clangs]

[whimpers]

Grandma, you must have been

so awfully lonely.

The agony you had to go through.

I'm so sorry.

I...

I loved you so much, grandma,

but I had reached my limit.

I couldn't bear it any longer.

Grandma... I had to abandon you.

What have I done?

[metal clangs]

[footsteps stomp]

[low groan rumbles]

Grandma... I'm truly sorry.

[all talking over each other]

We are not safe here.

I saw what happened to Jack.

I listen to my instincts

and I can tell you,

she can not be trusted.

What is wrong with you?

What's wrong with you?

What are you doing?

You're supposed to be

responsible adults.

[sighs]

Curt's right.

We need to remain calm.

Now what are we going

to do about Takashi?

Do we go

and look for him or what?

I'm not going back out there,

something weird is going on.

Now two grown men,

they don't just disappear.

The only thing weird going on

is standing right there,

and we're safer out there

than we are in here with her.

- F*** you.

- So does that mean

you are how you say,

leading a search party?

No, it bloody doesn't.

Such an idiot.

Oh, look at this,

talking about weird.

This must be centuries old.

Oh, what is it?

It's an official document,

warrant for a death penalty

of miller Hendrich.

- Death penalty?

- Yeah, for witchcraft

and making a deal

with the devil. [chuckles]

- [Douglas] Will you shut up?

- [thunder claps]

[doctor] Can I have a

look at that please, Abe?

The miller Hen,

the miller Hendrich...

[scoffs]

I was just reading about them,

but it's, but it's a legend.

What's the legend?

Oh, it's, it's a

pretty common one

around northern

and central Europe.

The miller sells his

soul to the devil

for the secret of keeping

his blades turning,

wind or no wind.

Gets rich, grows lazy,

lets his millstones

fall into disrepair and then,

then one day,

a local discovers a tooth

in his bag of flour

and he realizes

who's responsible for the spade

of disappearances in the area.

[chuckles]

[doctor] Villagers bearing

torches proceed to the mill

and discover that miller

Hendrich's crushes the bones

of his victims

with his millstones.

So they burn down the mill

with poor old miller

Hendrich stuck inside.

Charming story, merci.

Well, mademoiselle, it can

not be this mill, can it?

- [Jennifer] Why not?

- [Douglas] Because, Einstein,

that one hasn't burned

to the ground, has it?

Look, let's just all

sit quietly for a moment

and... get warm and...

Takashi hasn't shown up by then,

then we, we reassess.

[deep breaths]

Look. Look, what she's

done to it, she's ruined it.

Dad, what's wrong?

You're so angry.

What?

This is a Barber,

do you know how much they cost?

Should send her the bill.

I don't mean now,

I mean the whole time,

since you came to

pick me up from school.

- Uh, do you want a sweet?

- [Douglas]

Curt, you stay away from her.

Sit down,

like the doctor told you.

Sit down!

- And keep your hand up?

- What is your problem?

My problem?

What apart from being stuck

in a shack with a psychopath?

I mean after 15 years

of being married to one,

I am f***ing sick

of hysterical women!

Ah, come on.

[doctor] Jennifer?

[sighs]

Jennifer, come back inside.

Look... Look, Douglas, he's just

upset, you know, about his son.

Yeah, but, but you planted

the idea in his head

that I'm, that I'm some

kind of psycho-killer or...

Well, I'm sorry, all right,

it's not exactly

what I said, but...

Look... you do suffer from

hallucinations from

time to time, don't you?

Yeah, but the

man who killed Jack

was not a hallucination,

he was real.

He was as real as you are.

Yeah but, Jennifer,

I mean, it doesn't make sense,

it really doesn't,

you know, what?

There's some man and he's what?

Hanging around

a muddy field hoping

someone will come along

so he can murder them.

No, no, he's

here because of me,

he obviously followed me,

I thought he was dead,

but he must've survived

somehow, I'm...

Who? Who survived?

My... my dad.

You realize how

that sounds don't you?

Yeah, yeah, as if I'm crazy.

But even crazy people
