00:03:44♪♪
00:03:54You and the girls get the dinghy ready.
00:03:55I'll take us in closer to the shore.
00:03:57Okay.
00:03:58♪♪
00:04:08♪♪
00:04:18♪♪
00:04:28Come back!
00:04:29Come back, you fools!
00:04:31Don't lie in there!
00:04:33Come back!
00:04:36Come back!
00:04:38♪♪
00:04:45♪♪
00:04:54Hey, I wonder if anyone lives here.
00:04:56Oh, no chance.
00:04:57If there'd have been any natives on this island,
00:04:58they'd have spotted the boat before now.
00:05:00They're down here trying to sell us hand-painted coconuts.
00:05:02What do we do now?
00:05:03Well, my intuition tells me
00:05:05that Captain Kidd buried his loot over there.
00:05:08Hey, let's race up there.
00:05:09Last one doesn't get any of the jewels, huh?
00:05:11Oh, my God!
00:05:13♪♪
00:05:23Aah!
00:05:24See what I tell you?
00:05:26This looks just like the remains of Captain Morgan's flagship.
00:05:28Oh, but back there, you said it was Captain Kidd.
00:05:31I did?
00:05:33Well, I guess one pirate's gold is as good as another's.
00:05:39I think I found something.
00:05:40Hey, I think I found something.
00:05:42Oh, what is it?
00:05:44Armor?
00:05:45Pirate's armor?
00:05:46Well, let's just say it's something the tide washed in.
00:05:52I think you're just a little too young to know about it.
00:05:56Hey, gang, come here.
00:06:03Did you find something, Johnny?
00:06:05You bet I did. Look.
00:06:06Oh, what is it?
00:06:08Some of the best eating in these waters.
00:06:10A lot of clams around here, too.
00:06:11I'm getting hungry.
00:06:13Hey, let's have a clam bake.
00:06:14Right.
00:06:15And let's have it tropical style.
00:06:16Well, how do you mean?
00:06:17Look, Pete and I will go into the jungle and get some banana leaves.
00:06:20We'll wrap the clams in them and bake them in a hole in the sand.
00:06:22You girls stay here and dig for something.
00:06:24Oh, that's fine.
00:06:25All except the last part.
00:06:26Huh?
00:06:27Where you go, we go.
00:06:29Right?
00:06:30Where you go, we go.
00:06:32Right?
00:06:33Right.
00:06:34We'll all go for the leaves and then we'll all dig.
00:06:36Okay, okay.
00:06:37Come on, let's go.
00:06:50I'm in the jungle without banana trees.
00:06:52Hey, wait a minute.
00:06:56It's a cigarette pack.
00:06:58I'm not too old, either.
00:06:59I can still smell the tobacco.
00:07:01That means that somebody does live here.
00:07:03Not necessarily.
00:07:04Maybe somebody just went exploring a couple of days ago and then sailed away.
00:07:07I don't know why, but I'm scared.
00:07:09Let's go back to the boat.
00:07:10There's nothing to be scared of.
00:07:12Oh, no.
00:07:13It'll only take a few minutes.
00:07:14Then we'll be back at the beach.
00:07:15Come on.
00:07:16Come on.
00:07:28Oh, no.
00:07:29Donnie!
00:07:30Donnie!
00:07:31Oh, we've got to get him out of there.
00:07:32He looks hurt.
00:07:33All right, I'll get some vines.
00:07:34We can use them to pull him out.
00:07:35He looks like a trap.
00:07:36He was deliberately dug here.
00:07:37But who could have done it?
00:07:38Oh, I don't know.
00:07:39But I do know that as soon as we get him up out of that hole, we're getting out of here.
00:07:40Wait a minute, please.
00:07:41I'll climb down.
00:07:42No, I can't.
00:07:43I can't.
00:07:44I can't.
00:07:45I can't.
00:07:46I can't.
00:07:47I can't.
00:07:48I can't.
00:07:49I can't.
00:07:50I can't.
00:07:51I can't.
00:07:52I can't.
00:07:53I can't.
00:07:54I can't.
00:07:55I can't.
00:07:57I'll climb down.
00:07:58We'll need you here to pull him up.
00:07:59Okay, but be careful.
00:08:00Okay.
00:08:11Okay, start pulling!
00:08:23Help them quickly.
00:08:26♪
00:08:34Yes, I came here shortly after the war.
00:08:37I wanted to live in a world of my own.
00:08:39A world completely free from any kind of outside pressure.
00:08:43Yeah, but what do you do here?
00:08:45Yeah, how do you get any kicks in a place like this?
00:08:47Kicks?
00:08:49Oh, I've found...diversions.
00:08:52I've developed a kind of passion for hunting.
00:08:55Oh, that's it. That's why the trap was...
00:08:58No, no, no. You're quite wrong.
00:09:00You see, this island was once the stronghold
00:09:01of some renegades from the mainland.
00:09:03There may be one or two of them still lurking in the jungle.
00:09:06The trap must have been their handiwork.
00:09:09But all these different animals,
00:09:10they can't be native to this island.
00:09:12They weren't.
00:09:14But you must know what money can accomplish.
00:09:16It's quite simple to import any kind of wild beast
00:09:18from anywhere in the world.
00:09:21As other men collect fame and riches,
00:09:24I collect...trophies.
00:09:28Oh, come on, get out of my way!
00:09:31Ah, I accept.
00:09:34I thought you had visitors.
00:09:36I...I hear these strange voices.
00:09:38Ha, ha, ha.
00:09:41Yes, Dean.
00:09:42These young people have stumbled onto my retreat.
00:09:45I see that you're not feeling well again this evening.
00:09:50That's right.
00:09:52Maybe, uh, I shouldn't bother with introductions now, huh?
00:09:57I'll, uh, I'll go back to my room.
00:10:01I think that would be best.
00:10:03You can meet our young friends later.
00:10:09That's right.
00:10:13Meet our young friends later.
00:10:18Later.
00:10:23It's really too bad.
00:10:25Dean was once a very brilliant man, but...
00:10:28I keep him here with me because I feel sorry for him.
00:10:31And he's an excellent chess player.
00:10:34I know you'll all enjoy his company when he's sober
00:10:36and you get a chance to know him.
00:10:38Well, I'm sure that's right, sir,
00:10:39but, uh, I don't think we'll get the chance.
00:10:41We have to leave now.
00:10:42You see, our boat's anchored off the island.
00:10:44I'm afraid that's quite out of the question.
00:10:46You'd never make it through this animal-infested jungle tonight.
00:10:49But our boat, you see, the man who owns it
00:10:51doesn't know we went ashore.
00:10:52And he's sure to wake up...
00:10:53You can put your minds at rest.
00:10:55I have a very competent staff.
00:10:57They'll take care of everything.
00:10:59Will you excuse me a moment?
00:11:01I'll be right back.
00:11:13Johnny?
00:11:15Johnny, what are we gonna do?
00:11:17This place gives me the creeps.
00:11:19Oh, I don't know.
00:11:20I'd kind of like to see what gives.
00:11:22Yeah, sure, and what do you think's gonna happen
00:11:24when Tony wakes up and finds us gone?
00:11:26He'll head straight back to port,
00:11:28maybe remember to report us missing.
00:11:30We'll be able to be stuck here for days.
00:11:32Don't worry about that.
00:11:34Tony won't be going anywhere without us.
00:11:36What do you mean?
00:11:37I mean, I made sure of that
00:11:39before we left the boat by taking the rotor.
00:11:41He won't be able to start the engines without it.
00:11:43Oh, Pete, you're wonderful.
00:11:46Well, that takes care of the boat, but...
00:11:48Hold it. I think he's coming back.
00:12:02May I present my wife.
00:12:04Sandra, Miss Betty,
00:12:06Jeannie, Johnny, and Pete.
00:12:09I was sure that you would want to make them welcome to our island.
00:12:13Naturally.
00:12:15I am glad to see you.
00:12:17Will you be staying for a while?
00:12:19Well, you see, Mrs. Bellow...
00:12:21Yes, they will, my dear.
00:12:23I think I've convinced them of the foolishness
00:12:25of trying to leave tonight.
00:12:27But we don't want to impose.
00:12:29It's our pleasure.
00:12:31Isn't it, Sandra?
00:12:33Of course.
00:12:35And now, if you'll show the girls to the guest room.
00:12:38Yes.
00:12:40Will you come with me, please?
00:12:47I've made arrangements for you
00:12:49to spend a comfortable night.
00:12:51We can discuss your leaving in the morning.
00:12:57Sandor has prepared a room for you.
00:12:59He will take you to it.
00:13:01Well, I don't think we ought...
00:13:03Good night.
00:13:05Don't worry.
00:13:07Everything will be taken care of.
00:13:09Everything will be taken care of.
00:13:39Good night.
00:14:05Dean, we have to be careful.
00:14:07He could walk in any minute.
00:14:09And his spies are all over the house.
00:14:11I know.
00:14:13I know.
00:14:15I can't take much more of his madness, Sandra.
00:14:17I can't go on forever
00:14:19pretending to be a useless drunk.
00:14:23Now we've got to try to escape.
00:14:25We've got to try again.
00:14:27But how, Dean, how?
00:14:29He can never allow anyone
00:14:31to leave this place alive.
00:14:33And he has made sure no one ever will.
00:14:35I know.
00:14:37I'm going to gamble in a long shot.
00:14:39And now with these kids here,
00:14:41I think we've got a chance.
00:14:43What do you mean?
00:14:45I've worked it all out in my mind.
00:14:53Ah, Sandra.
00:14:55Entertaining our guest?
00:14:57You've recovered
00:14:59from your indisposition, I see.
00:15:01I'm glad.
00:15:05I was just about to take a turn around the grounds.
00:15:07Wouldn't you two like to join me?
00:15:09You go out so seldom.
00:15:13I am tired, Alex.
00:15:15I was about to go to my room.
00:15:17Dean?
00:15:19No.
00:15:21No, thank you.
00:15:23I...
00:15:26I think I'll turn in, too.
00:15:28Then you won't mind escorting Sandra
00:15:30to her room, will you?
00:15:32Of course not.
00:15:40Good night.
00:15:44Dean,
00:15:46I've worked out a very satisfactory design
00:15:48for living here.
00:15:50I think you realize that.
00:15:52I hope you also realize
00:15:54that the presence
00:15:56of those four young people here
00:15:58changes nothing as far as we're concerned.
00:16:02I've taken care of everything.
00:16:13You don't think we're dreaming,
00:16:15do you, Betty?
00:16:17No, this is no dream.
00:16:19But I can't think of a better explanation, either.
00:16:21Come in.
00:16:27Are you all right?
00:16:29So far we are,
00:16:31but I just can't understand what's happening to us.
00:16:33Neither can I.
00:16:35That big guy that took us to our room up the hall
00:16:37wasn't very friendly.
00:16:39I've got a feeling this isn't as friendly
00:16:41a place as that Mr. Below tries to make out.
00:16:43I still can't figure out how it got here
00:16:45on the island.
00:16:47I figured that this house was first built
00:16:49by one of those crackpot millionaires
00:16:51about 100 years ago.
00:16:53Then when Below found out about it,
00:16:55he sort of moved in.
00:16:57That could be it.
00:16:59He said he had a lot of money.
00:17:01But why?
00:17:03I still don't know what's going on here.
00:17:05It's a cinch nobody's going to tell us,
00:17:07so we'll just have to find out for ourselves.
00:17:09Yeah, but how?
00:17:11Let's split up and have a look around.
00:17:13Oh, I don't know.
00:17:15I'm kind of scared.
00:17:17Well, there's nothing to be scared about.
00:17:19I mean, I'll be with you.
00:17:21That's right.
00:17:23Better you'll be with me.
00:17:25Now listen, don't get into anything you can't handle.
00:17:27And if you find out anything,
00:17:29head straight back here and we'll do the same.
00:17:31Okay?
00:17:33Yeah.
00:17:45Okay, this is where we split.
00:17:47Pete, you and Jeanie go that way.
00:17:49Okay.
00:18:01Don't make a sound.
00:18:03I promise to release you,
00:18:05but only if you swear not to cry out.
00:18:07All right.
00:18:09Go back to your room.
00:18:11We'll go with you.
00:18:13I want to talk to you.
00:18:15What's this all about?
00:18:17Please go back to your room.
00:18:19We cannot talk here.
00:18:21Please.
00:18:23There is death all around us.
00:18:25Okay, Betty, come on.
00:18:27Hurry.
00:18:39Well?
00:18:41There's something I want to tell you.
00:18:43Unless you do exactly as I say,
00:18:45you'll never get off this island.
00:18:55Wait here.
00:19:11There's a stairway there
00:19:13that leads down into some kind of a tunnel.
00:19:15So?
00:19:17So come on, let's see where it goes.
00:19:21Please, listen to him.
00:19:23We are trying to help you
00:19:25and ourselves.
00:19:27I don't understand any of this.
00:19:29Well, I'll try and explain it as quickly as I can.
00:19:31First, we'd better have your friends
00:19:33from the other room in here.
00:19:35But they're not there.
00:19:37What?
00:19:39They're trying to find out what's going on
00:19:41just as we were when you stopped us.
00:19:43That's bad.
00:19:45I'll go look for them.
00:19:47No, no, no, stay here.
00:19:49I want you to hear this first.
00:19:51Let's just pray that they'll be all right.
00:20:09Aah!
00:20:39Aah!
00:21:09Aah!
00:21:39Aah!
00:22:09Aah!
00:22:39♪♪
00:22:49♪♪
00:22:59♪♪
00:23:09♪♪
00:23:19♪♪
00:23:29♪♪
00:23:39♪♪
00:23:46I can't believe it.
00:23:48It's just too awful.
00:23:50Every word is true.
00:23:52I swear it.
00:23:54You have to believe us.
00:23:56Not a word about this.
00:23:58Somebody give me a hand.
00:24:00Oh, dear.
00:24:02On the bed.
00:24:04Jeannie!
00:24:06You'll never believe what we saw.
00:24:08I don't believe it myself.
00:24:10We just heard about it.
00:24:12I guess it's true, then.
00:24:14They told you about an unbelievable nightmare.
00:24:16It's true, all right.
00:24:18That settles it.
00:24:20We've got to try and get out of here tonight.
00:24:22Tonight?
00:24:24Sandra and I have been saying that to each other every night.
00:24:26For the last year.
00:24:28Why haven't you ever tried?
00:24:30Never had the opportunity.
00:24:32Balo has always kept us pretty well covered.
00:24:34What can we do?
00:24:36But I think he'll give us all a good chance.
00:24:38Now, Sandra,
00:24:40you and Betty stay here and watch after Jeannie.
00:24:42Be sure she's all right.
00:24:44Johnny, I want you and Peter to meet me
00:24:46in the trophy room in a little while.
00:24:48Oh, it's all right. We have the run of the house.
00:24:50Only be careful what you say.
00:24:52Yeah, but what about Balo?
00:24:54You don't have to worry about him for a couple of hours.
00:24:56He's out in the jungle again.
00:24:58After another trophy.
00:25:00You think this Gerard character's on the level?
00:25:02Well, he must be.
00:25:04Anybody in their right minds would want to get out of this place.
00:25:06And I don't think he's nuts.
00:25:12I just had to make sure that Balo had really gone.
00:25:14Does he go out every night?
00:25:16Yes. Every night that he can hunt.
00:25:18What? I mean, who?
00:25:20Who?
00:25:22Out there in that jungle, there are already several men
00:25:24that he's driven insane.
00:25:26And now he's gone.
00:25:28He's driven insane.
00:25:30And now there's also probably the owner of your boat.
00:25:32Tony?
00:25:34Well, he must still be out in the boat.
00:25:36The engines won't work.
00:25:38I'm sure that by now Balo's men have taken that boat
00:25:40to the other side of the island.
00:25:42To the Hidden Cove.
00:25:44Hidden Cove? Well, where's that?
00:25:46That's where your only chance for escape lies.
00:25:48How do you mean?
00:25:50There's several boats moored offshore.
00:25:54Someone will have to swim out to one of them
00:25:56and try to make it to the mainland to get help.
00:25:58Well, I'm not much of a swimmer, but I'll try.
00:26:00No, no.
00:26:02I'll do that myself.
00:26:04And Sandra will come with me.
00:26:06Sandra?
00:26:08That's right. She's an excellent swimmer.
00:26:10And even if we don't make it,
00:26:14drowning would be better than what Balo had.
00:26:16And mine for both of us.
00:26:20Now, where do we fit into all this?
00:26:23I'm going to tell you.
00:26:27You're going to have to cover for us.
00:26:29If the guards find us gone, divert their attention
00:26:31until we get to the boat.
00:26:33And after that...
00:26:35After that, I'm afraid you'll have to look out for yourselves
00:26:37until I can come back with help.
00:26:42Johnny?
00:26:44Oh, I know it doesn't sound very promising,
00:26:46but believe me, it's the only chance you've got.
00:26:50Well, I guess we'll have to go.
00:26:52Well, I guess we'll have to take it, then.
00:26:54Good. Now listen to me.
00:26:56The first thing we do
00:26:58is go over to the north shore.
00:27:22Do they get away?
00:27:24So far, so good.
00:27:26I went as far as the front door with them. Nobody saw them.
00:27:28Those guards must be getting careless.
00:27:30One of them walked right by Sandra's room without checking it.
00:27:40Do you think he knows?
00:27:42I don't know.
00:27:44But Dean and Sandra have had time to get into the jungle.
00:27:46Let's hope they make it to the cove.
00:27:52Wait a minute.
00:27:54Do you think we have to stop, Dean?
00:27:56No, wait a minute. I just want to make sure of the direction.
00:27:58That guard won't be back right away.
00:28:00Yes, that's it.
00:28:02Dean.
00:28:04I may never get a chance to say this again.
00:28:06I love you with all my heart.
00:28:12Oh, darling.
00:28:14We won't fail.
00:28:16We can't fail.
00:28:22Come on.
00:28:52Did you find anything?
00:28:54No.
00:28:56I listened to two guards talking.
00:28:58One of them had been over to the cove,
00:29:00but he didn't mention anything about the boats.
00:29:02It's been two days now and no word.
00:29:04What I can't understand is why we haven't heard from Balot before now.
00:29:06You don't think...
00:29:08I don't know what to think.
00:29:10Hold it.
00:29:12Somebody's coming.
00:29:22What's going on in there, Johnny?
00:29:26You came to try and find out?
00:29:28You don't mean...
00:29:30I think the answers to all our questions
00:29:32lie behind that wall.
00:29:34We're gonna find out right now.
00:29:37Well, let's go, then.
00:29:39Come on.
00:29:41Don't go that way.
00:29:43You can't run all this way.
00:29:45I forgot something.
00:29:47I'm sorry.
00:29:49I'm sorry.
00:29:53I have to go.
00:29:55I love you.
00:29:57Goodbye.
00:29:59Goodbye.
00:30:01Goodbye.
00:30:03Not right now.
00:30:34Good evening.
00:30:40This is a pleasant surprise.
00:30:42I wasn't expecting you, but I'm glad to see you.
00:30:46Come in, come in, won't you?
00:30:53I have something I'd like to show you.
00:30:55This is something I'd like to show you.
00:31:04Welcome to my private trophy room.
00:31:08I had intended to show it to you in time, but why not now?
00:31:17That's Jacoby.
00:31:19He had strangled seven women before he found his way to my island.
00:31:23His experience made him an adversary worthy of my skill.
00:31:29You mean you hunted these people down,
00:31:31and then killed them and did that to them?
00:31:34Exactly.
00:31:35I hunted them.
00:31:38And shall I tell you why?
00:31:41I'd been a scholar all my life.
00:31:44I was curator of a large museum when the war began.
00:31:48I, who had never killed anything in my life,
00:31:50found myself assigned to duty as a sniper,
00:31:53a sharpshooter,
00:31:55because of my steady hand and keen eyesight.
00:32:00It amuses me now that I found it distasteful,
00:32:03at first.
00:32:05Then as time went by,
00:32:07I adjusted to my new activity,
00:32:10and what had been an unpleasant duty
00:32:12became a pleasure.
00:32:14Then it developed into a passion,
00:32:16and then into a lust,
00:32:17a lust for blood,
00:32:19a lust that has grown with the years,
00:32:22and one that I spend my entire life
00:32:25trying to satisfy.
00:32:28Don't be afraid.
00:32:30I've merely preserved my trophies as they were at the moment of my triumph.
00:32:43I see that my latest trophy has really impressed you.
00:32:47I'm glad because I think it's the best thing I've done
00:32:51so far.
00:32:53And because they tried to betray me,
00:32:55it gave me great satisfaction.
00:33:02I must leave you now.
00:33:04Since you had no difficulty finding your way here,
00:33:06I'm sure that when Miss Scott has regained her composure,
00:33:09you'll be able to see her to her room.
00:33:12Oh, yes.
00:33:15There's one thing more I'd like to have you see before you go.
00:33:24You'll notice that this niche has room for three,
00:33:27or even four,
00:33:29trophies.
00:33:32And there you have it.
00:33:34I think it'll be a wonderful sport.
00:33:36Don't you?
00:33:37Listen, Mr. Below, fun's fun.
00:33:39But if you think we're going to be the clay pigeons,
00:33:41and you're a shooting gal,
00:33:42you're just a little far out.
00:33:43Hey, take it easy, Johnny.
00:33:44He must be kidding.
00:33:45I mean...
00:33:46I mean, there must be an explanation for all of this,
00:33:48isn't there?
00:33:52I don't know.
00:33:53I don't know.
00:33:54I don't know.
00:33:55I don't know.
00:33:56I don't know.
00:33:57I don't know.
00:33:58I don't know.
00:33:59I don't know.
00:34:01Well, isn't there?
00:34:03I think I've made myself quite clear.
00:34:05But you can't mean that you're going to hunt Johnny
00:34:07and feed like you did those others.
00:34:09As if they're animals.
00:34:10Animals?
00:34:11No.
00:34:12Not like animals.
00:34:13I'm going to hunt them as men.
00:34:15Men of brains and cunning.
00:34:17Just as I stalked and hunted men when I was in the army.
00:34:21On Island's not very different from this one.
00:34:26Tony!
00:34:27Tony!
00:34:32Yes.
00:34:33Tony.
00:34:35I think it only fair that he should be here at this time
00:34:37because he's going to take part in the game too.
00:34:40No.
00:34:41No.
00:34:42Please.
00:34:43Don't send me out there with them.
00:34:47Tony, you've outlived your usefulness to me.
00:34:49I paid you well to provide me with subjects in the past.
00:34:52I warned you not to use your boat for other purposes.
00:34:55But since you've been so foolish as to allow these young people
00:34:58to find their way here without my knowledge,
00:35:00I think it only right that you should share their fate.
00:35:03Do you mean...
00:35:05That's exactly what I mean.
00:35:07Tony was my source of supply for subjects.
00:35:10In the past, they were always convicts
00:35:12escaped from the penal island.
00:35:14Now I find him no longer dependable.
00:35:17You really think you can get away with this madness?
00:35:20Madness?
00:35:21What I plan is a pleasant evening's diversion.
00:35:24See, I know he was only kidding.
00:35:26Well, that's just a toy.
00:35:27Well, I couldn't kill anyone.
00:35:29I...
00:35:55I guess it could kill somebody.
00:35:58Yes, it can.
00:36:00And soon we'll try to prove it.
00:36:02Please, Mr. Bellow, don't do this awful thing.
00:36:05Oh, please.
00:36:06You have nothing to be alarmed about, young lady.
00:36:08You're in no danger, either of you.
00:36:11Your life here with me will be a pleasant one.
00:36:13You'll find me a most accommodating host.
00:36:16Do you think Jeannie and I'll have anything to do with you
00:36:19if you send Pete and Johnny out and kill them in that jungle?
00:36:22Yes, I think so. I know so.
00:36:24No one has ever left this island, dead or alive.
00:36:27And since the unfortunate incident involving my wife
00:36:30has left me without feminine company,
00:36:32I look forward to getting to know you both better.
00:36:36Much better.
00:36:37Look, isn't it enough you have to make sitting ducks out of Pete and me?
00:36:41You have to hurt the girls, too.
00:36:43Hurt them?
00:36:44Johnny, he really means it.
00:36:46What are we going to do?
00:36:49I think you've asked the wrong person about your future activity.
00:36:53Go with John Doe.
00:36:55John Doe, lock them in their room and then come back at once.
00:37:16Very touching.
00:37:18But to return to your question, Pete,
00:37:20I will tell you exactly what to do up to a certain point.
00:37:23The rest, then, will be up to you.
00:37:25Are you listening to this, Tony?
00:37:27It applies to you, too.
00:37:29The moonlight's bright tonight,
00:37:30so you will make your way to the starting point of the chase.
00:37:33It's in the center of the jungle.
00:37:35Ivor will give you exact directions.
00:37:37The natives used to call it the Tree of Death.
00:37:40I will give you plenty of time to plan your flight
00:37:43before I follow with the crossbow.
00:37:45And just three of these.
00:37:48Just three shots.
00:37:50That's all I allow myself.
00:37:52Very sporting, don't you think?
00:37:56You haven't answered me.
00:37:58Don't you think it's very sporting of me
00:38:00to allow myself just one chance at each of you?
00:38:03Oh, sure. Real sporting.
00:38:06Right there, Marcus of Queensbury.
00:38:08In a jungle that you know like the palm of your hand?
00:38:11With that thing that could knock an elephant over?
00:38:13You're going to hunt us down.
00:38:14Of course, we have nothing to defend ourselves with.
00:38:16Not so fast, not so fast.
00:38:18Not so fast, not so fast.
00:38:20You haven't allowed me to finish the entire plan
00:38:22of the evening's entertainment.
00:38:24Tony, here, catch.
00:38:30Oh, Tony, it isn't loaded.
00:38:35He had us alone in here with an unloaded gun.
00:38:39It's time to start.
00:38:41The odds are not completely one-sided.
00:38:43Your youth and numbers against my skill and experience.
00:38:47You'll find the ammunition in the branches of the tree of death.
00:38:50When that gun is loaded,
00:38:52my life will also be subject to how the hunt goes.
00:39:11Here it is. I found it.
00:39:17Why, that rat.
00:39:19That lousy, stinking rat.
00:39:24And so, he left only one shell.
00:39:26That's the way his twisted mind works.
00:39:29What do you mean?
00:39:30Don't you see?
00:39:31He allows himself three shots, one for each of us.
00:39:34And we get one shot at him.
00:39:37Well, there's nothing we can do about it.
00:39:39Now, give me the gun and let's get moving.
00:39:41Oh, no, you don't, Buster.
00:39:42You just hand over that bullet.
00:39:44Don't be a fool.
00:39:45Tony, I'm a better shot than you are.
00:39:47Yeah?
00:39:49You ever shot a man?
00:39:53No.
00:39:54Well, I have.
00:39:56And I ain't taking any chances on no amateur.
00:40:05Well, which way should we go?
00:40:08I don't know which way you two guys are going,
00:40:10but I'm going alone.
00:40:12So long, suckers.
00:40:14Hey.
00:40:16Hey, come back here.
00:40:18No, no, let him go.
00:40:20It's better if we do split up. It doubles our chances.
00:40:22How?
00:40:23Well, Below can't hunt in two directions at once.
00:40:25Now, look, the way I figured,
00:40:26we must be right about in the middle of the island.
00:40:28We'll head that way, try to get to the beach,
00:40:31and then work our way back to the house.
00:40:33Back to the house? Are you nuts?
00:40:35Well, let's try to find the boat.
00:40:37No, we've got to try and get the girls out first.
00:40:39Oh, but Below said he wouldn't touch...
00:40:41Never mind what he said. I know what he meant.
00:40:43I don't like the way those goons of his kept looking at the girls.
00:40:45Come on, let's get started.
00:40:47I just don't see how you figured...
00:40:49Never mind. We've got to do what we can.
00:40:51And that's the first thing.
00:40:57Well, here's hoping we find the second thing.
00:40:59Whatever that'll be.
00:41:05The guard's still out there.
00:41:07And wide awake.
00:41:08Oh, Betty, what are we going to do?
00:41:10Even if we do get out of this room,
00:41:12where are we going to go?
00:41:14I don't know.
00:41:16Maybe we could find the boys and try to get to the boat.
00:41:19We don't even know where it is.
00:41:21Oh, it's just no use.
00:41:35Oh, even this window's locked.
00:41:41Come here, Jeanie.
00:41:46Listen to me.
00:41:48I've got an idea.
00:41:50Don't ask any questions. Just do exactly as I say.
00:41:53All right. What do you want me to do?
00:41:55Here.
00:41:57Oh.
00:42:11Oh.
00:42:13I'm terribly sorry.
00:42:15I was moving it and...
00:42:17And it just broke.
00:42:19I'm sure I can fix it if you could get me some glue.
00:42:23I didn't mean to break it.
00:42:25It... It was such a pretty vase.
00:42:29Jeanie, come on. Hurry.
00:42:31Come on. I'll help you climb out.
00:42:33Out there? But we'll be killed.
00:42:36No, we won't. There's a ledge out there.
00:42:38We can work along that till we come to an open window.
00:42:40But what if there's somebody...
00:42:42Never mind. It's the only way.
00:42:44Come on. Hurry up.
00:42:46Be careful, Jeanie.
00:42:48Watch it.
00:42:50Come on.
00:42:52Come on.
00:42:54Come on.
00:42:56Watch it.
00:43:16He's gonna have to go some to catch Tony White-Tout.
00:43:26Come on.
00:43:56Come on.
00:44:21Hurry. Hurry!
00:44:26Come on.
00:44:56Come on.
00:45:26Come on.
00:45:56Come on.
00:46:14So, Tony, we've come to the end of the trail.
00:46:22I'm disappointed in you, Tony.
00:46:24You've known me long enough to realize
00:46:26that I wouldn't give you a gun
00:46:28without first taking the precaution of removing the firing pin.
00:46:34You find that hard to believe?
00:46:36Well, you see, Tony,
00:46:38if I hadn't given you the gun,
00:46:40you would never have given me the pleasure
00:46:42of seeing your face at the moment of the kill.
00:46:44No. No.
00:46:46No, please.
00:46:48Please don't do it. Please.
00:46:50I'll never give your secret away.
00:46:52I promise.
00:46:54I'll get you more convicts.
00:46:57I'll never make a mistake again.
00:46:59Please!
00:47:02All right, Tony. I'll reconsider.
00:47:08Oh, thank you.
00:47:10Thank you. You won't be sorry.
00:47:12You won't be sorry.
00:47:14Enough of this. I have work to do.
00:47:16You get back to the house.
00:47:18Yes, sir. Yes, sir. I'll go right now.
00:47:22Tony!
00:47:27I have reconsidered.
00:47:43I'm sure I heard a scream.
00:47:46I can't tell.
00:47:48I think it might just have been a jungle bird.
00:47:50I'm sure it was. I'm sure it was Tony.
00:47:52That means we're next.
00:47:54Come on, Johnny. Let's try and find that boat.
00:47:56It's our only chance.
00:47:58We're not going to do anything until we get the girls free.
00:48:00Come on.
00:48:02I think this is the way to the beach.
00:48:13Hurry. Back to the Tree of Death.
00:48:15We'll pick up the other trail there.
00:48:20Come on.
00:48:37Well, we made it this far.
00:48:39Yeah, but where is this far?
00:48:41I don't know, but it's closer to far away than back in that room.
00:48:45Come on.
00:48:50Come on.
00:49:06Oh, no.
00:49:08That's the door to that terrible work room I told you about.
00:49:11Oh.
00:49:13Wait a minute.
00:49:15Maybe we can find a knife or something in there.
00:49:20Come on.
00:49:29Over here.
00:49:37We got to get a couple of these that we can carry easily.
00:49:39Oh, it's no use, Betty.
00:49:41Even if we did, I couldn't use one anyway.
00:49:43Now, Jeanie, listen to me.
00:49:47Good evening, ladies.
00:49:51Keep away from us.
00:49:53Keep back.
00:49:55I'm warning you, I'll use this.
00:49:57Jeanie, run for the door. He can only get one of us.
00:49:59Mr. Ballou told me to take good care of you ladies.
00:50:02Don't come any closer.
00:50:05Can't you see I'm harmless?
00:50:07I'm not going to hurt you.
00:50:10Can't you see?
00:50:12Can't you see?
00:50:40No.
00:51:06One of us. What's the use?
00:51:09It's only a matter of time before Ballou catches up with us.
00:51:13I don't think we are lost.
00:51:15The jungle's thinning out. We must be getting closer to the beach.
00:51:18So what?
00:51:21I don't mean to put you down, Johnny,
00:51:23but even if we do find the beach, then what are we going to...
00:51:26Hold it.
00:51:34Well, come on. We got to make time.
00:51:38This way.
00:51:48Don't make a sound.
00:51:56He hasn't seen us yet.
00:51:59Back off.
00:52:09I can't get out.
00:52:13I'm sinking.
00:52:15It's quicksand.
00:52:17Struggle. Keep quiet.
00:52:39Something scared him.
00:52:41We got to get out of here, too.
00:52:46I can't...
00:52:48I can't make it, John.
00:52:50I just can't make it.
00:52:59Get him off of me.
00:53:01Get him off.
00:53:08Get him off.
00:53:34Ballou's not far behind us.
00:53:36Come on, Pete. Do you think you can make it?
00:53:39I got a choice.
00:53:41Come on.
00:54:05Are you hurt?
00:54:07No. It's my dignity.
00:54:09Now what?
00:54:11We're out of that awful house.
00:54:13Now we'll have to try to find the boys.
00:54:15I just hope Ballou doesn't find them first.
00:54:25What's the matter with you, you clumsy ox?
00:54:27Twice tonight you've given our position away,
00:54:29and now you can't even find the trail.
00:54:40I'm grateful that your own stupidity
00:54:42will save me the trouble of getting rid of you.
00:54:48Too bad the leeches will do their work so well.
00:54:52You might have made an interesting specimen for my museum.
00:54:59Oh, I'm sorry, Chandon.
00:55:01I won't be able to stay to enjoy your last moments,
00:55:04but I am urgently required elsewhere.
00:55:10Oh!
00:55:15Okay?
00:55:16I guess so.
00:55:17We better keep moving, then.
00:55:19We'll never find the boys just sitting here.
00:55:21May I say it just once more, please?
00:55:23What?
00:55:24I'm scared.
00:55:26Well, if it makes you feel any better, so am I.
00:55:28But we've got to go on.
00:55:35Let's go this way.
00:55:39Let's go.
00:55:50That's Betty.
00:55:51And Jeannie.
00:55:52Come on.
00:56:09Ah!
00:56:14Ah!
00:56:15Ah!
00:56:16Ah!
00:56:18Ah!
00:56:19Ah!
00:56:20Ah!
00:56:21Ah!
00:56:22Ah!
00:56:23Ah!
00:56:24Ah!
00:56:29You all right?
00:56:32Come on.
00:56:33Let's get out of here, fast.
00:56:39Come on.
00:56:55Ah!
00:56:56Ah!
00:56:57Ah!
00:56:58Ah!
00:56:59So it's you.
00:57:01Ah!
00:57:02Ah!
00:57:03I had thought to permit you to enjoy the hospitality of my island
00:57:08while I took care of more pressing business.
00:57:10But since...
00:57:11Ah!
00:57:15Ah!
00:57:16Ah!
00:57:17Ah!
00:57:18Ah!
00:57:38Ah!
00:57:41Ah!
00:57:45Ah!
00:58:00Ah!
00:58:01Ah!
00:58:02Ah!
00:58:05Ah!
00:58:06Ah!
00:58:07I don't know how long we can hold on to this kind of luck.
00:58:29If Bellow doesn't get us, the strain will.
00:58:31We're going to have to try a real grandstand play.
00:58:35Betty, did any of Bellow's boys follow you?
00:58:38From the sound they made, I'd say the whole bunch is out looking for us.
00:58:41Good.
00:58:42At least they'll be out of the house.
00:58:44Pete, drop down and see if you can see any signs of them.
00:58:48Pete, be careful.
00:58:54Put me at them.
00:59:05It's okay.
00:59:07It's okay, come on.
00:59:19Look, we haven't got a chance without a gun.
00:59:21We've got to get back into the trophy room.
00:59:22But we can't, we just got out of there.
00:59:24No, that's just why we can take a chance on going back there.
00:59:26Bellow's guards will still be out looking for you girls.
00:59:29Now, if we can shake Bellow and get back there before the guards do,
00:59:32we can get the guns and maybe have a chance to stay alive long enough to find the boat.
00:59:37Come on.
00:59:50There's one guy that's not out combing the bushes for us.
00:59:53Should we jump him, Johnny?
00:59:54No, I don't think so.
00:59:56I think our best chance is to try and sneak past him.
01:00:02I'm going to try and sneak past him.
01:00:04I'm going to try and sneak past him.
01:00:05I'm going to try and sneak past him.
01:00:06I'm going to try and sneak past him.
01:00:08I'm going to try and sneak past him.
01:00:09I'm going to try and sneak past him.
01:00:11I'm going to try and sneak past him.
01:00:12I'm going to try and sneak past him.
01:00:13I'm going to try and sneak past him.
01:00:15I'm going to try and sneak past him.
01:00:16I'm going to try and sneak past him.
01:00:18I'm going to try and sneak past him.
01:00:19I'm going to try and sneak past him.
01:00:20I'm going to try and sneak past him.
01:00:22I'm going to try and sneak past him.
01:00:23I'm going to try and sneak past him.
01:00:25I'm going to try and sneak past him.
01:00:26I'm going to try and sneak past him.
01:00:27♪
01:00:56You surprised?
01:00:57Oh, very funny.
01:00:58Just stand there.
01:00:59Try and find something to open it with.
01:01:04Well, after we get it, what are we going to do?
01:01:06We're going to try and get out of here and find a boat.
01:01:08Oh, thank goodness.
01:01:09I don't want to stay in here any longer than we have to.
01:01:12Yeah, yeah, that ought to do the trick.
01:01:15Hurry.
01:01:27The neck broke.
01:01:29The neck broke.
01:01:56There's no ammo here.
01:01:58It can't be.
01:01:59These guns are useless to us without it.
01:02:01I know, I know.
01:02:02Somebody's coming.
01:02:03Let's get out of here.
01:02:28Let's go.
01:02:59Come on.
01:03:01Come on.
01:03:27Well, then.
01:03:28I'm flattered that someone should want a further look at my little souvenir.
01:03:33No one else has ever come back a second time.
01:03:36Alive.
01:03:40It's rather dark in here.
01:03:43Perhaps we should have a little more light.
01:03:51Well, let's try elsewhere.
01:03:56Or there.
01:03:57No.
01:03:59Well, well.
01:04:05Or there either.
01:04:07Well.
01:04:11There's plenty of time.
01:04:16Strange about these old walls.
01:04:19The smallest sound is amplified.
01:04:23If one sits quite still, one can hear the slightest murmur.
01:04:27Sometimes even the slightest breath.
01:04:34There's a certain closeness about this place.
01:04:37I've never corrected it.
01:04:39It helps preserve my trophies.
01:04:42But at times it does make breathing difficult.
01:04:48I've sat here so long that I find I can sit for hours.
01:04:52And not make a single sound.
01:04:57Not a single sound.
01:05:03A single sound.
01:05:07Stay just where you are.
01:05:11That's far enough, fellow. Don't come any closer.
01:05:15I think it was rather rude of you to force open my gun cabinet.
01:05:19But I'll overlook it, since you spared my ammunition chest.
01:05:22Oh, yes. I know your guns are quite useful.
01:05:26No, no.
01:05:28I wouldn't try that if I were you.
01:05:30It would only hasten your death and that of all your friends.
01:05:33Okay, fellow.
01:05:36You win.
01:05:38I never doubted it.
01:05:40Did you?
01:05:42Well, why don't you get it over with?
01:05:44Not so fast, my young friend.
01:05:46I have an idea that appeals to me.
01:05:49Let me group you.
01:05:50Let me group you in this setting,
01:05:53alive as you will be in death for all time.
01:05:56What do you mean?
01:05:58I'll show you, my dear.
01:06:00I've never had the pleasure of a trial arrangement of my trophies.
01:06:05You, Pete. Over there.
01:06:09Move!
01:06:13And you, my dear.
01:06:15I think you'd look most effective with your arms around Johnny's neck.
01:06:17Oh, wait a minute.
01:06:19You promised to let the girls live.
01:06:21That's right. I did promise.
01:06:23But since they obviously helped you kill the guard,
01:06:26I'm afraid I can no longer trust them.
01:06:28Guard?
01:06:30We didn't kill any guard.
01:06:32What?
01:06:34Honest. The only guard we saw was at the gate and we sneaked past him.
01:06:39Quiet. Don't make a sound.
01:06:41Any of you. Not a sound.
01:06:48You. Over to my chair.
01:06:50And throw the last switch.
01:06:52Move. Quickly, quickly.
01:06:58Hurry. The last switch.
01:07:12Shandor.
01:07:14Stop.
01:07:15Stop.
01:07:18I warn you.
01:07:46Take it easy, Betty.
01:07:48It's all over and we'll be safe now.
01:07:51But we're not off this horrible island yet.
01:07:53Those others.
01:07:55Don't worry about them.
01:07:57Now that Below's dead, I don't think they'll give us any trouble.
01:08:02I guess Below never thought he'd be back.
01:08:04I'm sure of it.
01:08:06I'm sure of it.
01:08:08I'm sure of it.
01:08:10I'm sure of it.
01:08:12I'm sure of it.
01:08:13I guess Below never thought he'd be the prize exhibit in his own museum.
