Dead and the Damned, The (2010)

[bunniefuu]

Ah!

Wait.

You can't k*ll me. You have
to collect the bounty on me.

I am.

Poster said dead or alive.

Caught him just in time.

How's that?

You had a competitor on this one.

The German. He wanted to cash
in on this bounty too.

That's too bad for him.

It's all there. Well, then
you won't mind me countin' it.

Be my guest.

You know, Rosie's got herself a couple
of fresh new girls down at the saloon.

Why don't you spend a little
of that money on a good time.

I can't.

Well, what are you gonna do
with all that money?

Something important. What's the biggest
bounty you got going on right now?

Well, the biggest cash payout...

Is a warrant out of Shasta County.

This savage r*ped a white
virgin.. k*lled her.

Her father wants him alive,

so he can see him swing...

Personally.

Perfect.

I've had a few men already go
after him.

Ain't none of them come back
so far.

Sounds like you might know
where this guy's at.

I do.

Giddap!

Howdy. Good morning.

Why don't you come over here
and have a sit down.

You guys prospecting? Yes, Sir.

Any luck? Little bit.

What brings you all the way
up here? Lookin' for work?

I'm lookin' for someone.

Have you seen, um,
this Indian around here?

You the law? You a bounty hunter?

I'm justice as far as he's concerned.

He's wanted for the r*pe and m*rder of
a lady, and I'm gonna bring him in.

If you ain't the law,
I suggest you let this one go.

Why's that?

It's not the only time I've
seen that poster.

Somebody just like you went
into those trees.

He never did come out.
Not all of him anyhow.

How's that? About a mile in,
saw his head on a stake.

Never went past that point.

That Indian..
He don't come down here.

It's real peaceful that way.

Maybe we should leave it just
like it is.

Can't. I need the money.
It's too important.

Can't be nothing that important.

It is in my case.

But it's good to know I'm
getting close.

I can't take horseback up there.
He'll spot me a mile away.

Can you look after my horse
for a couple of days?

Feed and water her till I get back?

I don't know.

She's a daisy.

But I don't think I really want the
responsibility for, what, a 20 dollar horse?

Twenty five.

Just look after her for a few days,
and I'll make it worth your while.

g*dd*mn, Boy.
I thought you needed the money.

Can you do it, yes or no?

Sure.

Thank you, Old Timer.

I'll be back soon.

Don't you worry. I'll take
proper care of that horse.

Good luck to you now.

Okay. We have to sell you.
Do you understand? Smile.

Hey! Hyah! Hey!

Good morning to you, Young Man.

I couldn't help but notice that
prospecting has done well by you.

I ain't no prospector. Well, I see you
struck it rich in whatever field you're in.

Have you ever thought of
settling down to start a family?

Now don't be cross.
I'm not judging here.

I am selling a future at a
price that can't be beat.

Any one of these young ladies
would make a fine wife.

I ain't lookin' to get married.

Well, maybe you'll be investing some
of that money you got into a business.

A smart man like you could
open up a saloon or a brothel.

You'll be needing a few sweet hostesses.

Whatever your needs,
these girls are the answer.

Rhiannan, the nice young man is looking
you over. Give him a pretty smile now.

I ain't lookin' for a husband.
And I ain't no wh*re.

It's "Hostess," not "wh*re."

She'll do.

In San Francisco, a lady..
This ain't Frisco.

Take it or leave it.

Jebediah!

Jebediah, I know that's you.
You get outta here!

Jeb!

Jebediah!

I'm comin'!

Get your a*s over here, Boy!

I was just over there, uh..

Hoss, what is that?

Go get the wheelbarrow.

We're takin' this to town.

Go!

I told you,
I don't wanna go with you.

Well, you were for sale, and
I bought you. So live with it.

I wasn't there by choice.
I don't want to hear it.

But if it will shut you up, I can tell you
that by tomorrow you'll be a free woman.

Really?

Wh-What are you gonna do with
me until then?

Nothin' to do with that.

I just need to go huntin',
and you can help me, that's all.

So shut up and do what I say,

and you'll be free before you
know it.

It's okay, Rhiannan. Stay here
for a second. I'll be right back.

Is somethin' wrong?
No, everything's fine.

I just want to see if we're going
in the right direction, that's all.

No, no, no. Not that way.

We gotta go up here.

What.. What.. What..

What the hell are you doin'?

I'm baiting my trap.
What does that mean?

It means..

You can scream all you want.

The louder, the better.

Don't you leave me here, You b*stard!

I can't hear you.

I said..

Hey, Cowboy.

Where'd you go?

Hey!

You need to let me outta here.

Okay.

We're going to have to do something...

To get these men interested.

Because if I can't sell you
as wives,

I will sell you as wh*res when
we get back to San Francisco.

Do you understand?

A-A-And that blouse.. It has a
stain on it, Rosemary. Come on now.

Get.. Get her into that new blouse.

Uh.. Uh, we have to make a sale..

Everybody, come quick!
What the hell is going on?

I'll be right back.

Put it down. Put it down.

What's that?

What is it?

I don't know.

But I found it over near the
scorched part of the forest.

I think it might be the
reason nothing grows there.

If it's poisoning the trees, what makes
you think it's not gonna poison us?

Because we ain't trees, you Idjit.

How's it shinin'?
I don't know.

Could be emeralds. Could be better.

Let's see what it is. All right,
you all. Give 'em some room.

Oh.

That don't feel like rock to me.

Ah!

Cowboy!

Hey!

Don't do it, Chief.

I could've k*lled you while
you slept.

But I wanna take your scalp
in battle.

Don't make me sh**t you!

I'll k*ll you if I have to.

Your poster says, "Wanted alive,"

but I'm sure they'll give me
something for your body.

Well, I'll change if he wants.
But these miners ain't struck it rich.

Not yet anyways.

But I'd rather be the wife of a poor
prospector than a half dollar brothel wh*re.

Yeah. Well, I say that we should..

Help! Help! Help!

Help!

Real Apache Battle Axe.

This should fetch me a few
pesos back in the town.

Why are you following us, Rhiannan?
You earned your freedom.

Have a nice life.

I understand.

But I don't know how to get
back to town on my own.

You'll have to find your own way, Darlin'.
You don't want to be anywhere near this savage.

He eats little girls like you.

Move it!

I know it's you.

German b*stard!

[German]

I don't speak your heathen language,

but you ain't takin' my bounty!

[German]

What are you doing?

Just returning the favor.

Go. Now!

Wait. What was that? I don't know.

What the hell was that thing?

It was a demon,
from the spirit world.

Spirit world, my a*s.

And you're still my prisoner, Chief.

You smell like sh*t.

We should clean off.

This is bad medicine.

Not before we get some miles
between us and those... Things.

What?

There are more of these things?

One took out the German.
Who?

That bounty hunter that was
sh**ting at us back there.

He was trying to steal you
away from me.

Poor b*stard.

You better follow us, Rhiannan.

No need to stand in ceremony. Get in and
wash the blood off. I can't stand the smell.

Where's the girl?

She went to wash herself up river.

Past those bushes so you
can't see her.

g*dd*mn, Chief.

Do you need to have every
white woman that you see?

I asked for her safety.

These demons have legs.

It wasn't no demon.
That was a leper or something.

A what? I don't know.

It was no damned demon from the spirit
world or anything crazy like that.

Now.. Now get in there,
will ya? Get!

Why didn't you sh**t me?

'Cause I need you,

and you need me,
if we're to survive this.

We know one important thing now.

What's that?

Either they can follow tracks,

or the woods are full of them.

Let's get moving.

You're hurt.

Rhiannan?

Rhiannan!

Come here. We're a team now.

Go get my satchel.

I have bandages and medicine
to tend to her wound.

Hurry! Hurry!

Where the hell is everybody?

Hello?

Why are the windows all boarded up?

You guys stay here.
I'm gonna take a look.

Hello?

You find anyone?

No.

We cannot stay here.

Well, we can't travel at night
with Rhiannan the way she is.

And since these windows are
all boarded up,

we'll be safe for now.

Let's rest up and head out
first light.

Agreed.

I can't believe I dragged
Rhiannan into this unholy mess.

I thought men like you...

Only cared about riches, not people.

The money I'm after isn't for greed.

It's for a purpose.

A woman.

A special one.

And this one reminds you of her?

Yeah.

Although Rhiannan's a grown woman.

The girl I'm earning money
for is innocent.

Or she was until I come along.

I knew she was too young.

But she was so pretty.

I knew I had to make her mine
or someone else would.

So I romanced her while no
one else was around.

Fell in love.

But she wasn't ready.

So I took advantage.

I took her innocence.

But I'm gonna make it better.

I'm gonna make an honest
woman out of her.

That's why I've been working
so hard the last few months,

collecting the money from the bounties.

She's pregnant.

She's due soon.

But, to make matters worse, her...

Pa died a few winters back.

Her and her Ma tried real hard, but they
can't work that ranch all by themselves.

I tried to help, but...

Her Ma want nothin' to do
with me.

But if they don't pay that mortgage,
they're gonna lose it.

I'm not gonna let that happen.

I'm gonna pay it.

Maybe then her Ma will see
that I'm a good..

Maybe then her Ma will let me
marry her daughter.

Do right by her and our baby.

See these scraps of paper?

They can create my future.

Make up for what I've done in
the past.

Money is your salvation...

But my downfall.

Not paper dollars, but gold.

What are you talking about?

Do you not wonder why I'm
wanted alive?

Well, I figure the father
wants to see you hang...

Because you r*ped and k*lled
his daughter.

I did not r*pe her!

I did not k*ll her either.

She and I...

Were to be joined.

We were secretly seeing each
other for over a year...

Before her father found out.

He would not allow her to be
in love with...

A savage.

But you can't forbid love.

One day he caught us together.

He shot at me...

And k*lled her by mistake.

I managed to escape.

But it matters not.

Without her...

My life knows no answers.

So, what does this have to do
with gold?

I'm sure her father does want
to see me hang.

But the reason why he came up
with these lies...

Was to get every bounty hunter
to bring me to him alive,

so he can force me to tell
him where the gold is buried.

What gold?

My love..

She stole a few bricks of
gold from her father's safe.

She wanted us to run away together.

But I told her I wanted nothing
to do with the white man's riches.

Little did I know...

That the stolen gold would
enrage her father so much...

That he would come in sh**ting.

The white man's riches...

Has brought nothing but sorrow...

To me and my people.

You're not gonna believe me,

but I know what you need to do.

In fact, I know exactly what
you need to do.

What you need to do..

You dump the body? Yes.

What is this?

I boarded up the last door,

so none of those things could
get inside.

Rhiannan will be safe while you
and I do what we need to do.

Explain.

We won't be able to make it out of
here with Rhiannan in her condition.

I say we hunt these things
under the cover of night.

They may be faster and stronger
than us, but they ain't smarter.

We can use the shadows,

k*ll as many as we can,

then find a safe passage out
of town.

Then, come first light, get Rhiannan...

And walk out of here real
peaceful like.

Let's go.

Shh!

What the hell you doing out here?

I didn't lock you in there for fun.
This place is full of those things.

You locked me in with one of them!
Where the hell have you been?

Shh. Me and the Indian were
hunting those things...

And gathering supplies to get
out of town.

I was just about to get you when..

At least he's with her now.

What do you mean?

Come on!

Look. I'm gonna go k*ll these things.

You don't want to be eaten alive.

If worse comes to worst,
use this on yourself.

But I don't.. Take it!

Stay right here.

Ah!

Try not to move.

I ain't gonna make it.

Go to Fresno.

Find the Hanson Ranch.

Get that money to my girl.

Her name is Sarah.

She'll be easy to find.

She's the most beautiful girl
in the world.

I will.

Don't tell her how I died.

It will give her nightmares.

She'll know that you gave your
life to save others..

Nothing more.

There's plenty of money there...

To pay the mortgage...

And to give the baby a good start.

Tell her to put a little
money aside...

And buy a pretty dress,

so I can look down upon her.

I had so many plans for us.

The three of us.

They'll never know hunger.

They'll never know fear.

Come with me. [German]

Come.

We got to find another way around!
Hurry!
