I'm telling you.
If you Noah would've
just made that field goal,
things would have been
all been different, you know?
We would have won four in a row, you know?
The whole city would have been different?
Yeah, well... Yeah, we probably
would have won five,
- six in a row, you know?
- What if, right?
Yeah, that's...
Let's throw that anywhere.
Hey, what do I care?
It's not my property.
Yeah, but it belongs to my mother.
And the way things have been going lately,
she's gonna meet her maker any day now,
leaving this all to me.
Yeah, well,
it's too late to go back to look for it.
I, I forgot where I threw it.
In short for you don't give a sh*t.
You called it like you see it there.
I can't get anything by you, can I?
Hey, when are you gonna
bring Kyle out here with us?
- Ah.
- He's old enough
to hunt with the men now.
You know, Kyle's soft.
He, he just doesn't have the
stomach for this kind of thing.
Yeah, but he wouldn't have to hunt.
You know, it would do him some good
to get outta that house and,
and to bond with some older men.
Well, g*dd*mn kids
these days, you know, they,
they just don't have
any kind of appreciation
for this kind of stuff.
I mean, example,
last time I asked him to
come out here, uh, he said,
he acted like I was asking him to go
to boarding school or something.
I mean, it's just a weekend with,
with your pops, Steve.
I, I'm sorry I even asked.
It's a shame.
Yeah.
He's coddled, I mean, that little sh*t.
Can't say that I don't love him, though.
Do you see that?
Yeah, I, I did.
Storm death toll is rising tonight.
So far, seven people have d*ed
in incidents directly related
to this massive winter storm.
County and state officials
cannot stress enough,
stay off of the roads.
It's simply not safe to be out.
By going out tonight,
you're not only putting yourself in danger,
but the lives of others as well.
Storm-related deaths on the rise.
Now, seven people have d*ed
during this lake effect event.
The roads so bad,
first responders having a hard time
transporting those who are truly in need.
Again, county and state
officials can not stress enough,
do not leave your home.
Of course, if there is an emergency,
call the first responders at 911.
Hey, where are you going in such a hurry?
Grandpa, I'm going to Sarah's.
You should lay down, you need your rest.
Ah, sit down, boy.
Sit down with me.
I don't have too much time.
What's up?
Jay, what are doing with yourself?
I don't wanna sit here and be lectured.
No, no, listen to me.
When I was your age, I could
Yeah, yeah, I know.
You were in the army,
had a family of your own,
blah, blah, blah.
No, I didn't have time to be a kid.
I had to grow up too fast.
I just wonder if you're happy, Jay.
I don't know.
I know.
There will come a day in your life
when you will ask yourself:
"Is this what I'm supposed to do?"
You may not get a choice.
Like now you can do whatever you like
that makes you happy,
but someday you're gonna
have to stop being a follower,
stop taking the easy path.
You're gonna have to be a leader.
And you're gonna have to make a decision
that's gonna scare you.
And there's gonna be consequences
no matter which path you take.
But then people will to you for answers,
and that's the day
you'll know you're a man.
Well, thanks for the wisdom, old man.
But I gotta get going.
Aye, all right.
See ya.
Yeah.
Sarah!
Sarah, breakfast is almost ready.
There's hot water on the stove
if you wanna make some tea.
Actually, I want some cocoa.
Mm.
Over 75 inches in
three days, a new record.
Wow, that's crazy.
Yeah, and 132 miles of the I90 closed.
Looks like I won't be
going to work for a while.
Well, I think it's safe to say
that no one's going anywhere for a while.
I know if I don't get
out of this house soon,
I'm gonna go crazy.
Sarah, please, don't do anything foolish.
It's dangerous out there.
Mom, I'm 20.
It's not like I'm a kid still.
You live with your mom and dad
and you don't pay your rent or bills.
You're not grown up yet.
Hello!
Oh, deadbeat Jay is here to save the day.
Hi, Mr. Seaver, Mrs. Seaver.
Breakfast?
I'd love some.
Hi, Jay.
Happy you could make it.
Thanks, Mr. S.
Can I get some cocoa?
Sure, Jay.
Thanks. You're the best.
Mm.
These eggs are chronic.
What do you put in them?
Nothing special.
Milk.
Mm.
You are such a good cook.
That is genius.
So, Jay, any luck finding a job?
That's a funny story, actually.
Actually looking at the
time, we gotta get going.
Molly and Kyle are waiting for us.
But I didn't even finish my cocoa.
Oh, please, don't stay on our account.
I guess I'll just bring it with me.
I hate to just come in
here and eat and leave.
We'll get some quality
time together, I promise.
Oh, goody.
Thanks for the grub, Mrs. S.
You're welcome, Jay.
So, wanna have sex?
No.
Hey, Molly.
Mind if Jay and I stop by?
Cool. We'll see you soon.
I thought you were already
planning something with Molly.
No, that was just an
excuse to get us at the house
because my parents hate you.
Your parents love me.
It's okay, Jay, they hate me too.
You, maybe; Me, no.
I bring excitement to their life.
Plus they make me food all the time.
If they didn't like me,
they wouldn't make me food.
What's wrong? Why are you stopping?
I just thought I saw something.
I'm so cold,
my penis shrunk into my body
and it feels like I'm f*cking myself.
Can we keep moving?
That's, you're disgusting.
- Hey, Molly.
- Hey.
Oh my god, you're freezing.
I know. It's so cold out there.
Do you want some coffee?
- Yes, please.
- Okay.
- Kyle, man.
- Hey.
I don't know what that is.
Dude, I'm so thirsty.
Can you grab me a beer or something?
Sure.
Hey, what time is it?
It's time to drink.
Ooh.
It's a big mess in the South towns,
as you probably know.
Hamburg, one of the hardest hit areas,
with many people having a
tough time getting out the door,
let alone out their driveway.
The snow falling all morning.
And "7 Eyewitness News" reporter Ed Riley
has been there through it all.
Here in the town of Hamburg,
the conditions continue
to be absolutely horrible.
It's crazy, man.
There are still people
stuck out there right now.
I seen plow trucks in the ditch
on my way home last night.
It's unreal.
A friend of mine opened her door
and there was a wall of
snow on the other side.
Man, I wish I had a snowmobile.
I've never seen anything like this.
It's crazy.
And the weird part
is that Niagara County has
hardly seen anything yet,
but we're getting slammed
with six feet plus in snow.
Wow, it's so unreal.
Hey, good news is we
can stay in all day and party.
That's all you do anyways, Jay.
Yeah, but now y'all can join me
without feeling guilty about it.
And again, road conditions
are just terrible here... Speaking of which,
- who needs a beverage?
- They're advising everyone
- to stay off the roads.
- Dude,
you're the only one drinking this early.
- And that's a big problem...
- Stop taking all my beers.
- For emergency crews.
- Dude, I'll get you back.
- Relax.
- Yeah, I bet.
To see what was happening there.
And you can see that
conditions are nearly a whiteout
in front of the fire hall.
And inside, crews from
rural metro were watching.
Erie County executive Mark Poloncarz
talked about the state of emergency,
but they also said they've
had quite a challenge.
Can we do something?
All we've done in the past couple days
is listen to this crap.
Yeah, seriously, it's,
it's making me stir crazy.
Dad, it's me, Kyle.
Listen, I'm worried about you.
Will you please call me back
so that I know that you're okay?
Still no answer?
He hasn't taken any of
my calls in the past two days,
and he's in the worst of this.
Maybe he lost power and
he can't charge his phone.
That's what I'm worried about.
No power for two days,
he's gonna freeze.
Should we go check on him?
There's a driving ban right now.
There's no way we're getting out there.
Dude, you're gonna
let a driving ban stop you?
You're right.
He's my dad.
Listen, will you guys go out there with me?
I could use an adventure.
Count me in.
Of course I'll go with you, hun.
You know I'm in.
Great.
Let's go.
There is a travel ban,
so we urge people to stay off the road
so they're not blocking the road
so we can get to calls,
and that.
And as I was leaving,
there was another call of an ambulance
stuck with a patient on board.
Oh, sh*t!
Crews were heading out, you can see
- Hello there.
- Morning.
Where are you heading?
I'm going to see my dad.
He's in the South towns right now,
and I haven't heard
from him in a couple days.
Everything's blocked off this way.
Nobody's coming in or out.
Okay, well, he's been pretty sick lately.
So is there somebody that
can go check on him for me
and make sure everything's all right?
Well, we're doing the best we can,
but we can't get any vehicles through
to help some of these people out.
I mean, we will get there,
I'm just not sure when.
Hell, even the snowmobiles
are getting stuck.
Okay, well, what do you want me to do?
Because I can't just wait all this out.
Your best bet is to try to
contact one of his neighbors
and see if they can check on him.
I'm sorry, but that's the
best I can offer right now.
Okay. Thank you, officer.
Yep. So long.
So now what do we do?
Go home?
We find another way.
Let's do this.
To everything and anything.
Hold on.
Hello?
Hello?
Hold on, lemme step
outside so I can hear you.
Frank, where are you going?
We're gonna do another sh*t.
We just did a sh*t.
I'll be right back in.
He's not going back in.
He's a liar.
He don't like to have fun.
Forget about him.
Let's do sh*ts.
Sorry about that, man. I'm here.
Hey, man,
I'm trying to get to my dad's
and the roads are blocked.
Are you close by?
No, man, I walked over
to Jesse's house, you know,
pass the time.
I can check on him
later if you want, though.
No, forget it.
I'm working on another plan.
- Thanks.
- All right, Kyle.
Stay warm, man.
What the hell?
This can't be real.
Monica, where's my gloves?
Check your pockets.
Why do you keep doing that?
Where are you going?
I'm going out to help Doug
dig out some driveways,
maybe drop off some supplies to open doors?
Just be careful.
Of course.
Ooh.
Yo, dog, you wanna hit that sh*t though?
Nah, I'm good, man.
Hey, pal, don't be a bitch, yo.
f*ck you.
We cool. We cool.
Yo, bitch, you gonna hit that sh*t?
Nah, yo.
I get drug tested, dog.
True that.
Yo, so listen up.
I got a plan, yo.
I'm not even gonna ask.
f*ck. I'm gonna tell
you anyway, m*therf*cker.
You my accomplices.
All right, so here it is.
Yo, all this snow,
it's got the five-o blocked out and sh*t.
All them streets be closed.
Yeah, nobody's coming up there
to open up them shops and sh*t.
It's prime opportunity
for us to go out there
and start busting up that
sh*t and stealing that sh*t.
You know what I'm saying, dude?
Yo, we ain't looting sh*t, dog.
It's too f*cking cold, man.
b*tches!
It's ours for the taking.
I'ma get myself a 1080p m*therf*cking TV.
Get myself a DVD m*therf*cking player.
You know what I'm saying, dog?
I'ma get myself a
PS-m*therf*cking-4, m*therf*cker.
I gonna hit up that liquor store
and get a bottle of Cristal.
And all 'em b*tches are
gonna be coming up in here.
Yo, f*ck you, Jimmy!
Look at this sh*t, man.
I'm sick of this sh*t.
You used to be a suburbanite-ass white kid
till you saw a Ice T video,
now you think y'all gangster and sh*t.
This is our f*cking town.
What you think this is, Ferguson?
You be busting sh*t up?
Yo, those are our people
running them f*cking shops.
f*cking idiot.
Yeah, where's your sense of community?
Yo, I didn't choose the thug lie,
it chose me.
Yo, let's get the outta here.
f*ck it.
Get outta here, b*tches.
f*ck you.
b*tches.
f*ck!
What the f*ck?
What, you think this is
Halloween, m*therf*cker?
Yo, Jimmy. It's Jay, man.
Just looking for some magic.
Hit me up.
- Damn it.
- Magic?
Oh, yeah, that was my weed dealer.
I was just trying to score some reefer.
Are you serious?
The city is in a state of an emergency
and you're trying to buy weed?
I need to stock up before
I'm stuck in my house
for a week.
Wow.
I don't even know what
to say to you right now,
just wow.
You need to lighten
up a little bit, Molly.
- Excuse me?
- All, guys, cool it.
Listen, everyone get out, okay?
We gotta walk from here.
Walk?
Yeah, we can't drive any further, okay?
We gotta try to walk in.
And if anyone says anything to us,
we'll just tell 'em that
we live at my dad's
and we're going home.
Come on, Jay.
Let's go.
How you feeling?
Like I'm getting a
little bit too old for this.
Well,
how about we run some supplies in
after this last driveway then?
That sounds just right.
All right.
Am I hallucinating
or did you just see that too?
I, I haven't had much
to drink yet, have I?
I mean, those are g*dd*mn aliens.
Don't come any closer.
W-we don't understand.
Who is it?
I don't know.
I, I think that creature's trying to use it
to communicate with me.
What do you want?
We are not your enemy.
We seek your help.
Holy sh*t!
What's happening?
I have no idea.
Our transport malfunctioned
and crash landed here.
We were not meant to
make this confrontation.
Can that thing take photos?
No documentation.
We will leave you unharmed,
but this encounter must be kept between us.
How can you understand us
if you don't speak our language directly?
Our comprehension apparatus
is capable of helping us
understand you; However,
speaking is made more effortless
through your electronic devices.
Tell us, do we have an agreement?
We won't harm you in
exchange for your non-disclosure.
I don't think you're in the
position to be making threats.
I mean, I've got the g*n.
I, I, I make the calls.
Henry, we're talking
with alien creatures here?
I'm not scared of 'em.
This could be huge for us.
Uh, let's not do anything crazy.
Think of all they could offer us.
Think of if we k*ll these things
Mm-hmm.
We could show off
their bodies and their ship.
- Yeah.
- Yeah.
Think before you act.
We have been here since
the existence of your kind.
We are the guardians of this planet.
Choose to help us and you will be rewarded
with gifts beyond your mortal dreams.
Choose to defy us and you
will reap the wrath of our gods.
You're all talk.
Gimme some proof and
maybe I'll reconsider my options.
Careful, Henry.
I'm not scared of them.
Heat wave, Chicago, 1995,
739 dead.
North American drought, 1988,
5 to 10,000 dead.
Hurricane of Galveston, 1900,
6 to 12,000 dead.
We are responsible
for every natural disaster
in your history.
These are what we call the cleansing.
For millenniums,
humans have been destroying this planet,
neglecting their gifts from
the gods, harming each other,
doing incomprehensible evils to one another
for a moment of pleasure
or to better themselves above all others.
We are here to observe, document,
and report on your behavior.
We see all that you do.
If k*ll you, you mean,
th-then I'm doing the world a favor?
We are merely pawns.
k*lling us would only bring you death.
What's in it for us i-if we help you?
Say no word of our existence
and we will spare your lives.
I want more than that.
Henry.
We are not the kind for second chances,
though we can see through
your shell into a man:
A father, a man in pain.
How do you know that?
We are willing to give you a second chance
and take away your pain,
but you both must promise us
that you will live a meaningful life
absent of the evils of man.
Cause no pain to another of your kind
and we will cure you of illness
and protect you from this world.
Maybe he's not here.
Then we're gonna have
to find another way in.
KOKW calling.
Come in.
KOKW calling.
I'm on international frequency.
Come in.
Hello?
They can't bear to see their image,
it repels them.
Mm mm.
I'd like to say it's my own recipe,
but I know you watched me empty the bag.
It's really delicious, though.
So what are your plans for Thanksgiving?
Monica and I are just gonna have dinner
at home alone.
You know the two of you can have dinner
with my family this year.
I've gotta warn you though,
there are a lot of them
and they are loud and obnoxious people.
Monica doesn't really like
being around people these days, so...
I really appreciate it, though.
Sorry, I, I didn't mean to.
But even if just you wanna
get away from the house
for a little while, come over and join us.
I'll save a seat for you at the table.
So either way, if you wanna come over
Just stop, please.
H-hello.
Yeah, yeah.
Hi, hi, hi.
It's, it's me, Steve again.
Yeah, um, y
Yeah, I'm looking at the
hot water t*nk right now,
and it seems to be working fine.
It's just, uh, I'm not getting
any hot water in the house.
Yeah.
H- hello?
Are, are, are you there?
Hello?
W- w-w-who's there?
I'm calling the cops.
Wha-what the hell?
What do you want from me?
The time has come for you all to die.
What, what, what for?
We are the guardians of the district.
You have polluted the
sector, mistreated each other.
You have abused and neglected
everything we have given you.
You are selfish, you are weak.
The district must be purified.
You're mistaken.
I, I haven't done anything.
You are a liar, an immoral deviant.
You will atone for your transgressions,
you and everyone else in this district.
He's not home.
H-how do you know about that?
Nobody knows.
Get outta my head.
Now what?
I know he keeps a key
underneath the rocks out front.
I know it's around here somewhere.
Dude, just get out of the way.
Lights aren't working.
It's freezing in here.
Yeah.
Kyle, get in here!
Kyle!
Okay, I'm coming.
No.
Dad.
He, he's ice cold.
I should have been here sooner.
This is not your fault.
Okay?
Okay?
Okay.
Yes.
My father's dead.
He's frozen.
You okay?
Something is not right here.
I do not feel comfortable.
We need to leave.
72 Headley.
Yes.
How long is this gonna take?
How long?
They said it could be up to six hours.
The storm's coming, Kyle.
I'm not leaving my father here alone.
Then we stay.
No!
Look, I know emotions
are very high right now,
but we have to stay here
and support our friend.
We have no power.
The storm is coming.
If we don't leave now, we won't be able to.
I'll try to get the power back on.
I'll gather some
blankets in the meantime.
Thanks, Molly.
Anything?
- No!
- sh*t.
New York State Police sent out a message
that they had over 100 cars
stuck near the Lackawanna tolls.
And, again, road conditions
are just terrible here.
And they're advising
everyone to stay off the road
because you will get stuck,
and that's a big problem
for our emergency crews.
Part of my walk this morning,
I went up to the Scranton Fire Hall
to see what was happening
Do you really think anyone's
gonna come out in this?
We don't have any power.
We should have left.
Look, even if I did
wanna leave right now,
it's not even possible, okay?
We'd have to walk all the way to the car
in the dark
in this.
So you don't need to keep talking about it.
We're gonna be fine.
I'm going to get something to drink.
Anybody thirsty?
I don't suppose there's any way
we can make some cocoa right now, is there?
No, sorry.
Well, look, my dad usually
keeps a bottle of whiskey
in the kitchen cupboard.
That ought a warm us up a little bit.
Oh, hell yeah.
Four glasses coming right up.
Everything all right?
Yeah, I'm fine.
Ah, yes.
Sweet nectar of the gods.
To my father.
To his stubbornness, his vices,
and his heart.
And his terrible taste in whiskey.
You know, he always told me
it was about the quantity
of the drink, not the quality,
how by the time he was done drinking,
he didn't even remember
what it tasted like anyways.
That's just an excuse
to buy the cheap stuff.
Don't you insult my
father in his own house.
Sorry, Henry.
Thanks.
So, hey,
Jay and I were in the back of
my dad's car one time, right,
riding around in the parking lot
on some quality or something,
waiting for my mom to
get done grocery shopping.
And my dad, he gets bored,
so he starts driving
around in circles backwards
in the parking lot.
Large circles around the whole lot,
in reverse.
Yeah, around and around,
yelling at people as he drives by.
So some employee walks
out wearing an apron,
and he's marking down prices on some sh*t.
And dad yells out to him,
"Skirts and g*ns?
Hell.
Well, that went out years ago!"
Oh, no.
Oh, your dad was hilarious.
Never a dull moment.
I'm really gonna miss him, man.
Yeah,
me too.
Well, I gotta take a piss.
Thanks for letting everybody know.
You wanna hold it for me?
Get outta here.
Oh.
Oh, yeah, that's good.
Oh.
Oh, man.
What, did you fall in?
Dude, I swear I saw
something looking at me
through the window, man.
So a peeping to was watching you?
Whatever it was, it wasn't human.
It's just the storm.
The dark's playing tricks on you.
I don't often piss
all over myself, Molly,
unless if I have a good reason.
And how often is that?
I'm serious, Kyle.
Now do you believe me?
Oh, man up, Jay.
It's just a storm.
Molly, wait.
Molly?
We need to leave this house.
Oh my god.
Molly?
Leave her alone.
What do you want from us?
You're all going to die tonight.
No, no, no.
No, no.
No, no, no. No, no, no.
No.
No.
Is she okay?
She's dead.
What the hell is going on here, man?
We have to leave, Jay.
I want to go home.
Is anybody in there?
It's the paramedic.
We have to tell him to leave.
He can help us.
It won't open.
Help us!
Open the door.
I can't. It's stuck.
Oh my god. No!
Son of bitch.
f*ck me! We need to leave now.
We need to run.
Now's our only chance.
I'm not leaving her.
She's dead, g*dd*mn it!
You'll be the same if
you don't come with us.
I don't care anymore.
You son of a bitch.
We've been friends since we were kids.
I'm not gonna let you die here.
Leave.
We have to go!
Damn it, Kyle.
Go!
What are we going to do?
The paramedic had to get here somehow.
Maybe there's an ambulance
or something close by.
What if he has the keys?
Let's hope he doesn't.
When is it enough?
When restitution is paid.
For what?
For everything you have done.
I don't care anymore.
You son of a bitch.
We've been friends since we were kids.
I'm not gonna let you die like this.
f*ck!
It's pretty tough driving.
So, again, the advice to everyone today
is to stay home and
especially stay off the roads.
And here in Hamburg,
we don't know when
the snow is gonna let up,
but right now
What are we doing here?
My cell's dead.
Let's see if we can't go inside
and call for some help.
sh*t!
Smartphones, right?
Let's go see if the garage is open.
Hello.
Yeah, we need help.
We're.
Hello?
Is there anybody in here?
Same bullshit.
Looks like no one's gonna
be able to come out here
for another six hours or so.
Should we just try to get home?
I don't know.
We should be safe in here for now.
Besides, with my sense of direction,
I'm not even sure which way home is.
We should start a fire.
That's the best idea I've heard all night.
This is the warmest I've been all day.
I love it.
If only I had a hot cup of cocoa
and some warm brownies right now,
my life would be complete.
Do you think Kyle's
still alive out there?
I hope so.
That thing, whatever it was,
I've never heard or seen
anything like it before.
Maybe it's just nature's
way of getting back at us
for slowly destroying the world.
Either way,
I don't think anyone's ever
gonna believe any of this.
Me neither.
Hey, Nick, what's going on?
Hey, Doug.
I just need to get outta the house.
I can't sleep.
I just need you to send
me in the right direction.
I just can't get my mind off of, well,
you know.
Yeah, of course.
I just heard a call come over the scanner
that there's two kids held
up in a garage out your way.
I'll text you the address.
Looks like they're just
trying to find their way home.
Okay, I'll swing by
there to help them out.
Thanks, Doug.
No problem.
Monica, it's Doug.
I'm gonna say something to you
I should have said a year ago.
I know you're hurting
because you lost your son.
Well, Nick is too,
and you can't keep blaming
him for what happened.
Your husband's still
alive and he needs you.
When he got in that accident,
he didn't just lose his son,
he lost everything.
He lost the love from his wife, his son,
and any love he had for himself.
He goes out of his way every day,
giving everything he has
to help people, hoping somehow,
some way it's gonna take away all the pain,
that it's gonna balance things out.
Well, guess what, honey?
It's not helping.
He needs you.
So stop being selfish,
stop acting like your whole life
is already over because it's not.
Forgive your husband.
He already,
he already carries enough guilt around
for the both of you.
I say this because I love you both
and I miss my friends.
Thank you.
Nick,
I'm sorry.
I know that Danny's
death was not your fault.
And I just want you to know
that I don't blame you.
And I'm so sorry
for the way that I've been treating you.
I just want you to come home.
I want us to start again.
I love you.
How long has it been?
I'm not sure.
Long enough.
Is that me?
I thought your phone d*ed.
I thought your phone d*ed too.
Okay, that's starting
to freaking the f*ck out.
Hello?
Hello?
Is anybody there?
Hello?
You're all going to die tonight.
Sarah, don't be afraid.
Come towards me right now.
What is going on?
Sarah, just come here.
We're getting outta here.
What are they?
I don't wanna stick around and find out.
Let's go.
It won't open.
f*ck this.
Jay.
Everything okay?
Yeah. Yeah, I think it is now.
Who are you?
My name's Nick.
I heard you needed help.
I'm here to rescue you.
I'm Jay, this is Sarah.
Nice to meet you, Jay, Sarah.
How'd you kids get out here anyway?
It's a long story.
You wouldn't even
believe us if we told you.
Well, I'm sure you've
been here long enough.
It's time to get you kids home.
Are you kidding me?
Who would have done this?
More like what.
Is there something you need to tell me?
Get back in the garage.
- What the hell is that?
- Get back
in the garage, Nick!
Does somebody wanna
tell me what's going on here?
That thing, whatever it is,
it's been stalking us all night.
It's,
it's k*lled people.
I told you you wouldn't believe it.
What does it want?
It wants us to die.
Well, that doesn't leave
the odds in our favor, does it?
Do you have a g*n?
No.
Is there anyone else we can call?
Nobody is gonna come out in this storm.
We already called the police.
No offense,
but I hope you're not
who they sent to rescue us.
No, I, I heard it over the scanner
and I came out.
They might be here soon then.
Maybe we should wait.
Do you really wanna wait here, Sarah?
What other choice do we have?
Does that thing lock?
Not from the inside.
There's nothing we can do for your son.
I'm sorry.
Monica, If I could take his place,
you know I would.
What are you doing?
That thing will k*ll you!
Leave them alone.
They don't deserve this.
You are all going to die tonight.
No!
You have no choice.
I lived with despair,
I will not die in despair.
Take me and let them go.
There is no bargaining.
For what purpose do they need to die?
They're just kids.
What purpose do they live?
Who made you the judge?
I am judgment,
and your day has come.
Then end this, you son of a bitch,
and let them go.
Please, let me die knowing
I did something that matters.
Very well.
He's dead.
Jay,
is it over?
I hope so.
There's someone here.
Oh my god!
Sarah, where have you been?
- Mom!
- Oh, we've been so worried.
I have some water on the stove
if you wanna warm up.
What happened?
Are you okay?
I don't even know where to start.
Oh, did you get caught in the storm?
Oh, you don't know the half of it.
Ah.
And what's your plans
for the rest of the day?
I was hoping to spend
some time with you, Grandpa.
What do you got going on?
Oh, not a g*dd*mn thing.
Perfect.
You know, when I was your age,
one time we get so much snow.
We were snowed in for weeks, no snow plows,
that it was family time,
the kids were happy.
Oh my goodness gracious, we had a ball.
I am sorry, ma'am.
She's a nice girl. Dougie.
You need a nice girl.
Yeah, she's a little thin,
but she comes from a wealthy family.
I'll invite you two over
for lunch sometime.
Aunt Bernice, I don't
need your help with women.
I love you and I appreciate it,
but please stop.
She's got a sister.
She's a little thicker.
You can see she knows
her way around a kitchen.
Maybe I could bring her over for you,
see what you think.
We're getting ready to say Grace, Dougie.
What are you doing?
Leslie, your sister was distracting me.
Please get her out of here.
Oh, stop it.
You are just afraid of women
and you want someone to blame.
B, like I said, I love you,
but if it wasn't Thanksgiving,
I'd choke you.
Marcia Thompson's got a daughter
that's into that sort of
stuff if that's what you like.
I find it repulsive, but,
you know, her girls,
they have no self-respect.
Oh, Jesus Christ.
I'm just gonna sit down.
Don't use the Lord's name in vain.
Sorry, Leslie.
Okay, everyone's here.
Let's say grace.
Bless us, O Lord, and these, thy gifts,
which we are about to
receive from thy bounty.
Through Christ our Lord.
Amen.
Amen.
It was hard to explain
what happened to everyone.
I wouldn't have believed it myself.
Hell, most of the time I just lie about it,
say it was a storm that k*lled Molly, Nick,
and the others.
I guess that's not lying.
The creature, whatever it
was, came with the storm,
so in a way it's true.
For some reason, Kyle
was spared that night,
I guess we all were,
but he changed.
Molly meant the world to him,
and his whole world was taken away.
The way I see it is we
were spared for a reason.
So now I owe it to Nick
to make sure that I keep pressing on,
that I make this life count,
because if not,
then he d*ed for nothing.
They did something to me, I feel it.
We hold you accountable
for the rest of the
humans in this district.
Break this commitment to us
and everyone here will pay the consequences
for your actions.
We will send a cataclysm
of momentous proportions to your realm.
Do you understand?
I, I understand.
Yes, I understand.
Do you believe anything that thing said?
I, I don't know how to explain it to you.
They did something to me.
I feel different.
I feel better than I
have in my entire life.
Of course I believe that.
Yeah, but, but what
about what you said before,
a- about the money we could have had
if we would have proved
those creatures existed?
What about that, huh?
Well, don't you see that,
that it's bigger than this, Steve?
I mean, they, they just
gave me a new chance.
They gave us a purpose.
Don't screw that up for us.
Right?
Oh.
Come in.
Sir, this is the footage
I wanted you see.
Good. Bring it here.
What the...
Oh my god!
I had a feeling you'd say that.
Is this the only copy?
Sot the kid says, but who knows?
And has anyone else seen this?
You, me, and the kid.
Good.
Good.
Let's keep it that way.
Whatever you say, boss.
Sir, I have something here
you're going to wanna see.
The police confiscated the footage
I sh*t with my video camera.
I did my best not to ever
talk about those creatures,
but somewhere along
the way the word got out.
We were never given a second chance.
There was no warning.
At first the county froze over.
People were freezing to
death by the thousands.
Before we knew it,
the entire state was in a permanent winter.
I don't know how far it reached.
My communication to the outside world
was cut off shortly after I heard the news.
Everyone I cared about d*ed
or I lost them somewhere
in this frozen hell.
I buried my grandpa
shortly after the first winter.
I searched for Sarah and Kyle,
but I don't know where they went.
Maybe they traveled south
hoping a warmer climate still existed.
For whatever reason, I was spared.
Either that or I was
kept alive to be tortured
in this arctic world,
left alone to travel aimlessly,
hoping to one day reunite with my friends.
These creatures are
the only company I keep.
I call them the creeps.
All they ever do is follow
me around and haunt me,
a constant reminder that
this could be all my fault.
Somewhere along the way I
must have broken the rules.
Everything was fine at first.
But I've come to the conclusion
that by capturing that monster on film,
it must have somehow triggered all of this.
Relax.
I'm not here to harm you, man.
I'll be the judge of that.
Come on, I'm just
looking to share the warmth.
I know the feeling, man.
You can't trust anyone.
There's a lot of sickos out there
that would skin you alive and eat you.
Name's Corey.
Jay.
Good to meet you, buddy.
I haven't seen another living person
in I don't know how long.
And we're the lucky ones, right?
It's like the whole world went crazy:
People hoarding food
and fighting over g*dd*mn toilet paper.
It's weird what fear will do to a man.
It wasn't long after people started dying
that it went into complete chaos.
No more law, no more rules,
every man for himself.
You don't even know about it, do you?
I lost communication early on,
kept inside for a while.
By the time I came out,
whole city was frozen.
It's funny.
Someone I knew back in the old world
told me they'd target the people
that were bragging about hoarding first.
You know, the ones that posted it
all over their social
media before the blackout,
those were the big targets.
You can't be too careful.
You don't know who's watching.
After a while, though, it didn't matter.
Everyone was a target.
Survival of the fittest.
I mean, I just kept to myself,
stayed locked in until
the resources ran out.
I always kept to myself, though, really?
I wasn't worried about anyone
stopping in to check up on me.
But I can tell you when I did come out,
I heard and I saw some crazy sh*t.
I couldn't make it up even if I tried.
Have you heard anything
about the West Coast?
I wonder if it's frozen there too.
Not much.
It's where I'm headed, actually.
I had a brother drive a
snowplow out this way.
I'm trying to find him
or his truck at least,
clear my way out to California.
You can come with me.
Road's a lonely place, huh.
I don't know.
I have a lot of unfinished
business to deal with here.
Besides, no offense, I don't even know you.
Yeah, of course.
Look at me barging in here
trying to turn your world upside down.
I'm sorry, buddy.
Let's just en-enjoy the fire, eh?
Hey, I hate to be a bother,
but do you have any food?
I haven't eaten something in days.
I mean, rats mostly.
And I always find those frozen.
It's hard to get the
taste outta your mouth.
It's even harder when it's skunk.
My hand smelled like that for weeks.
I mean, it's actually not as bad
as what you might think it is.
Yeah, I have food.
Smith, I got him!
Oh, oh, oh, oh.
Don't move a muscle.
g*dd*mn, he's got a full bag of food too.
Oh, I see all the food I need right here.
You waste him, I'll skin him alive.
Oh no, no.
No that, no that.
I kind of like him.
He might stick around a while.
Let's do this outside.
Wait, wait, wait.
It's too damn cold outside.
Let's do it in a corner or something
and use some blankets to clean it up.
There's gotta be more supplies upstairs.
Do you have access
to the rest of the house?
No, everything else was boarded up,
except for the entrance to the basement.
He's lying!
He's not gonna help us
when he knows we're just gonna k*ll him,
idiot.
I can help you.
You don't have to do this.
Oh, you're gonna
help us just fine, buddy.
Don't you worry about that.
Where do we start?
I say we put him down and go from there.
Wait, you need me.
I have access to food,
enough to last for years.
I'm listening.
You better not be playing games, though.
I ain't stupid.
Yeah, show us where it is
and maybe we'll spare you.
How do I know you won't
k*ll me as soon as I do?
You don't.
No, you have to ensure my safety
or I ain't telling you sh*t.
This is a waste of time.
I'm hungry.
You know how I get when I'm hungry, Corey.
You don't wanna make him mad.
He doesn't know how to control his temper.
Just tell us what you know
and we'll take it easy on you, all right?
Okay, okay, fine.
It's just a few miles from here.
Nope, we ain't falling for that sh*t.
I'm not going on a wild goose chase.
You're done.
Come on, Smith.
Let him finish.
He's lying.
He's gonna lead us into a trap.
I'm not!
There's a storage container full of food,
but I'm the only person
with the code to get in.
Bullshit!
Why wouldn't you keep it here.
In case something like this happens.
Horse sh*t!
Tell me this wasn't for nothing.
Who the hell are you talking to, boy?
Oh fine, forget it.
Let's just k*ll him.
Please, help me.
And so my only friends are creeps.
They protect me from a world gone mad
and torment me to a sleepless end.
It's hard to say I'm a religious man
after all I've witnessed.
I doubt everything I ever was taught,
yet maybe this is God
and these monsters are His angels.
Maybe this is the end of times.
But even now, even here
in my weakest moment,
as I stare death in its face,
I must move on
for Kyle and for Sarah.
I must go into the unknown,
down a path with no direction
because staying here
and hoping things get better
isn't going to make the difference.
I need to leave this place
because I am my only hope for survival.
