you'd ever get back.

Okay, Val, we're with you.

Just tell us what

you wanna do. Over.

Yeah, well, this one's

gonna tear this town

out from under us.

We're all gonna

have to get out of

here together, now.

Okay, Val.

We're coming after everybody.

Just hang tight. Over.

Look.

Val, you're gonna have to

forget about the truck.

Yeah, we got you, Heather.

Now, look.

The situation

hasn't changed.

We still have to

make it to solid rock.

There's gotta be some way.

Like what?

There's nothing left

that can make it

to those mountains.

Hey, Val. Quiet, man.

lt doesn't matter now.

They know we're here.

Oh, sh*t!

We need a helicopter

is what we need.

Or a goddamn tank!

Wait a minute.

Wait a minute.

The Cat!

Could we take the Cat?

Oh, Jesus.

lt's slower than hell.

Yeah, but it weighs

better than 30 tons.

There's no way they

could lift 30 tons.

Could they? l mean. . .

But we can't all

fit on the bulldozer.

No.

No, but we could

drag something, though.

We could pull

a car behind it.

l don't know.

Hell, that old semitrailer.

lts tires are flat.

Doesn't matter.

That Cat can

pull anything.

Well, all right.

We just roll on

out of here.

We've got a plan !

Of course,

that's a hell of

a long walk.

Listen, they only respond

to vibration, right?

Well, couldn't we

distract them somehow?

Yeah. Good.

Something to

keep them busy,

like a decoy.

Hey, Melvin,

you wanna make a buck?

Eat it!

How about the tractor?

Walter's little tractor?

Start him up.

Let him go out

by himself.

Let those things

follow him all over

if they like that noise.

Not bad.

What do you think?

Ground's getting

closer, Earl.

Yeah.

l say we go with

Miguel's plan.

Just hold on, Nancy!

l'm making the run

for the Cat.

Like hell you are.

Get real, Earl.

l'm faster than you.

But l'm best at

driving the Cat.

Not while l'm around.

Look, damn it!

Now listen to me.

l'm older

and l'm wiser.

Yeah? Well,

you're half right.

Damn ! l lost.

Guess l'll have to do it.

l won.

l pick who does it.

Ready when

you are, Miguel.

There he is.

There he goes!

He's chasing it.

He's chasing it.

lt's going.

This one's going, too!

Good luck, shithead.

Don't worry about me,

jerk-off.

Sh*t!

You suicidal

son of a b*tch.

Keep going !

Oh, my God !

Oh, my God !

Come on !

They're gonna get him !

Val, stop!

They're coming !

Be quiet!

Don't move!

lt worked.

They can't find him.

We gotta. . .

We gotta make some noise.

A lot of noise!

Hey, you sorry

sons of b*tches!

Come and get my ass!

Over here, you slime bucket!

Come get me!

Come on.

What are you, scared?

Come on.

Hey, what's she doing?

That did it, girl !

God damn good thinking.

You okay?

Yeah.

Here goes.

Here.

Yeah.

God damn !

Armored transport.

Burt! Heather!

Let's get going !

Let's move it.

Burt! Heather!

Come on, let's go,

you two. We're headed

for the mountains.

lf that's how we're doing it,

we're going prepared.

We can't hold still long.

These things are damn smart.

They're getting

smarter by the minute.

That's fine.

We've got some new

things to teach them.

You see that?

They're doing it again.

They try it every time

l stop!

Come on, now.

Jesus Christ!

We're only going

nine miles.

Yeah, well, those things

are gonna be on our ass

every foot of the way, right?

Just hurry!

Burt, Heather, what

are you doing up there?

Can't you see

we're sinking?

Get in the trailer!

What do you think?

Max firepower or this?

l go for penetration.

The .458, shooting solids.

Less ammo to carry.

Come on, Burt.

Move it!

Watch these ammo boxes!

Come on, Burt!

Heather, hurry!

Tell them to come on !

Okay, now!

Now! Come on ! Come on !

Hey, give me a gun.

l'll take one.

l wouldn't give you a gun

if it was World War lll.

Food for five years.

A thousand gallons of gas,

air filtration,

water filtration,

Geiger counter,

bomb shelter.

Underground

goddamn monsters!

Yo, there we go!

Solid rock.

Any sign of them?

Maybe they just

gave up, you know?

Hey, what's that?

Damn it! What the hell

are they doing?

l don't care

what they're doing

as long as they're

doing it way over there.

Wait, wait!

Look out!

Mindy!

Mommy!

Everybody stay here.

Burt, you okay?

l'm okay.

Are they gonna get us?

What happened?

Burt, you sure

you're okay?

Yeah.

Earl, what happened?

What happened?

They dug a trap.

l can't believe this.

All right.

Here.

Let me have my gun.

Hungry? Eat this!

Everybody down !

There they are!

Did you get one?

l don't know.

No, there's still

two of them.

Look, there're two

different dust trails.

Sure made them

think twice though.

What the hell's in

those things, Burt?

A few household chemicals

in the proper proportion.

Here they come.

They're coming back!

We'll have to make

a run for those rocks.

l don't know, Val.

That's a hell of

a long way.

Yeah, man,

they'll get us!

They're sure as

hell gonna get us

if we stay here.

Hey, Burt!

You have any more

of those bombs?

We've got you

covered, Rhonda.

Well, what if we

throw one that way,

the way that we wanna go?

Then when it explodes,

l mean, if it drives

them away,

we run like

goddamn bastards.

Pardon my French.

What if they

don't get scared?

What if they don't run?

l don't think it

does scare them.

lt hurts them.

They're so

sensitive to sound,

they gotta run.

Oh, hell,

she's got my vote!

That's it!

We're making

a run for it!

We're going

for the rocks.

l don't know, man.

They're too fast.

You can't outrun them.

No way!

Yo, Melvin.

This'll make them

think twice.

Everybody ready to run?

Heads down !

lt worked !

There they go!

All right, let's go!

Move.

There you go.

Here. Come on, Burt.

Oh, f***.

Oh, Burt, you a**hole!

Mommy!

Mindy, get up.

Get up.

Get up here!

l'm with you, honey.

Go, go, go!

Burt, you a**hole!

There's no bullets

in this gun.

Got you moving,

didn't it?

So, now what?

Could we make it

to the mountains,

use Burt's explosives?

No way.

We'd need 50

of those bombs.

Well, that's it.

We're not getting

off this rock.

Well, we're not gonna

pole vault out of here.

That's for damn sure.

Wait a minute.

What're y'all

talking about?

lt's like you're

giving up or something.

They'll just wait out

there till we're dead.

That's exactly what they do.

Wait!

For Christ sake,

we could've made

a stand at our place.

We had food, water.

You can't fight

them like that.

So you two

screw-ups hauled us

way the hell out here?

Hey, why don't you

just back off,

string bean?

You know, we could've

left your worthless ass

on the roof!

l wish you had,

fearless leader.

Who the hell put

you two in charge?

Don't push me!

Just back off, Burt.

Just don't goddamn push me!

lf them graboids

don't kill him, l will.

What?

They'd have torn your

place out from under

you in half an hour.

Come on. Come on.

Just let it go.

Let it go.

Forget about it.
