Short filmTranscript
00:01I'm a poor wayfaring stranger
00:07I'm burning through the flood of woe
00:12But there's no sickness, toil, nor danger
00:17In the bright land to which I go
00:22I'm going there to see my father
00:27I'm going there to no more roles
00:33I'm only going over Jordan
00:38I'm only going...
00:51Hello, you.
00:53What's out there?
00:58Something's coming, isn't it?
01:00Something bad.
01:23Velma, what do you got?
01:38Emmeline Trace, 16 years old, went missing yesterday from Pryor, Kentucky
01:43Her brother Jasper put up the reward, now it's only 5k
01:48And before you even say it, I know we would barely break even
01:52Brother, no parents?
01:54Died in a house fire 10 years ago
01:56Brother got parental custody, so it kept her out of the system
02:00How'd you find this one?
02:01I was on the message board and it popped up
02:03Something about it just reminds me of where I came from
02:06Seems like you're pretty near the area, but you don't have to take this if you don't want to
02:10No, I understand
02:13Colter says something about her picture and the post from her brother
02:17I'm guessing nobody's going to be chasing this reward
02:20Send me what you have
02:21A few hours away, I'll leave as fast as I can
02:27He's going to take the job?
02:29Yeah
02:30Well, kind of bad asking him, but I just got a feeling about this one
02:34You know, you don't talk much about your family
02:37Colter tell you?
02:38No, I just picked up on some clues along the way
02:42I don't mean to pry, I just...
02:44It's fine, it's not something I really advertise, but I never knew my dad
02:47And my mom was institutionalized when I was 12
02:50Prison?
02:51Nah, it's the other one
02:53Oh, that's tough
02:55My sister had to step up and raise me and she was basically a kid herself
02:59I'm sure she was happy to do it
03:00I know Colter wishes he could have done more for his sister
03:03I don't know, I just think that there are some people that are raised and some people that are forged
03:09And in my experience, those kinds are way more interesting
03:20You think this has something to do with your sister's disappearance?
03:33It was dropped on her porch day before she was taken
03:35There have been others
03:37Rabbits
03:38Raccoon
03:39Even a cat once
03:41Someone's sending a message
03:43Yeah, people around here didn't exactly take kindly to outsiders coming in
03:46Came from Tennessee, right?
03:47Yes, sir
03:48Six months ago
03:49The outfit I work for doesn't mind safety and inspection
03:53Not the most popular job out here
03:55The locals think you're threatening their livelihood
03:58No doubt
03:59Minding ain't what it used to be, but it's good work
04:01Union work
04:03People kill to protect these jobs
04:05If something happened to her because of what I'm doing, I...
04:12When was the last time you saw your sister?
04:14Yesterday morning
04:15I was leaving for my shift
04:16She was sitting on the couch facing a book
04:18When did you notice she was missing?
04:19School called
04:20Said she wasn't there
04:22She ain't the type to just skip class
04:23So I raced home
04:25Her backpack was sitting there with her phone
04:26And I just drove around all night looking for her
04:29Called the police?
04:31Yeah
04:32Yeah, they said she must have ran off
04:35Mr. Shaw, the police, they got sons
04:37And they got cousins in the mine
04:38They ain't any different
04:42Did Emmeline like it here in this town?
04:46You know, she never really had many friends
04:49Kinda keeps to herself
04:51Yeah, I mean, moving was tough, but...
04:54She wouldn't leave me
04:56Not after everything that we've been through
04:58I bet my life on that
05:02I really think something bad happened to her
05:06It's...
05:08Something here
05:14You see that?
05:16Looks like plastic from a car turn signal light, doesn't it?
05:20I think this animal was hit, and it was moved here
05:24Did you notice anything when these animals were dropped off?
05:26Anything at all? The truck?
05:27No, they were always just waiting here when I came home
05:30You remember which days?
05:32Yeah, I would always try reporting it, but...
05:34Like I said, the police weren't too sympathetic
05:38Um, look, I know...
05:40The reward isn't much...
05:42But...
05:44Hey, I'm gonna help you
05:46I'm gonna do whatever I can to bring your sister home
05:48Bobby?
05:50What up, C?
05:51Check your inbox, will you?
05:52And I don't have good cell service here, so we gotta be quick
05:53Well, you know me, quick's my middle name
05:55All right, you want me to find who collects roadkill for the Department of Transportation in Fernland County, Kentucky?
06:00That's a new one?
06:01Run it against the dates I gave you, will you?
06:02Government website?
06:03Not that easy
06:05That's why you get paid the big bucks
06:07You said it, not me
06:09Okay, got it
06:11Guy's name is Jim Wheeler
06:12Looks like he's working for all three of those days
06:14Okay, I got it
06:15Okay, I got it
06:16Guy's name is Jim Wheeler
06:18Looks like he's working for all three of those days
06:20Okay, I got it
06:22Okay, I got it
06:23Okay, I got it
06:25Okay, I got it

06:33I got it
06:34I got it
06:35I was living through those days
06:37What do you have on him?
06:38Turns out the hiring standards for county roadkill collection are pretty low
06:39Willis' got a couple of DUIs, domestic violence charge
06:41But he never did time
06:42Can you get his location from his phone?
06:44Got questions, but sure
06:46All right, sending you the coordinates
06:48Looks like he's on his route now
06:50Thank you
07:01Jim Wheeler, looking for Emmeline Trace.
07:16Happen to know where she is?
07:19Now why would I?
07:20Well, her collection of dead animals dropped off at her place,
07:23all while you were on shift.
07:24I'm guessing not a coincidence.
07:28What's the following off my truck?
07:31She's gone missing.
07:33Now I know you ain't police.
07:35I ain't counting neither.
07:37And if you're fed, I got nothing to say to you.
07:43I'm just trying to find a girl.
07:45Her brother thinks she might be in danger.
07:48It might be that, uh...
07:50It might be that Trouble found her, for a reason.
07:55What reason would that be?
07:56I got a cousin that works with her at the Icycon.
07:59Say she's seen the devil acting through her.
08:05I don't need none of her kind around here, that's for damn sure.
08:08Is that why you've been dropping the roadkill off at her place?
08:10Maybe.
08:14Lucky that's all.
08:14There you go.
08:35Enjoy.
08:35Hi there.
08:40Can I help you?
08:41I hope so.
08:42I'm looking for Emmeline Trace.
08:43Been hired to find her.
08:44She's gone missing.
08:45You work with her, right?
08:46Yes, sir.
08:47Well, I mean, I did for a bit.
08:50Emmeline don't work here no more.
08:52Fired her last month.
08:54Why's that?
08:54Afraid that's confidential.
08:56Since you ain't a paying customer,
08:58gonna have to ask you to leave.
08:59Right.
09:00Um, in that case, I'll have a black coffee.
09:02Go do the restock, Barbara.
09:07Delivery just came in.
09:11Take it you're not a big fan of Emmeline's.
09:17Seen enough to know I don't want no part of what she's into.
09:20What's that?
09:22Witchcraft.
09:24You believe in that?
09:25Be foolish not to.
09:27Now you have a nice day.
09:29My joy.
09:44Hello, how can I help you?
09:50Your boss doesn't seem to like Emmeline very much, huh?
09:53Says she's, uh, you know, weird stuff.
09:57I've heard the rumors.
09:58And, yeah, I mean, she's strange,
10:00but she was nice to me.
10:02Covered my shift when my mom got sick.
10:04How is she strange?
10:05Well, like most people,
10:06when they're on a break,
10:07they'll go up back and just go on their phones.
10:09She just walked around in those little trees out there.
10:12What was she doing?
10:14Nothing.
10:14Just looking at plants.
10:16Talking to herself.
10:17But Tess didn't like that too much.
10:19I probably should go back.
10:20Tess might start wondering.
10:22If there's anything that you can tell me
10:23that would help me find her,
10:24it'll just stay between the two of us.
10:26Well, it could be because of what happened with Shirley.
10:32Shirley Mechanis?
10:33She kept missing works.
10:34They gave her job to Emmeline.
10:36But a month or two back,
10:37Shirley's husband, Travis, came in.
10:39Was cursing like hell at Emmeline.
10:42Upset that Emmeline replaced his wife.
10:44Maybe.
10:45I don't know.
10:45I was doing inventory in the freezer.
10:46After Emmeline was crying and carrying on,
10:50Tess fired her after that.
10:52Said she couldn't have no more trouble.
10:54You know where the Mechanises live?
10:56Down by the old lumber mill,
10:57but you don't want to mess with Travis.
10:59Gotta temper.
11:02What the hell's going on?
11:04Oh, nothing.
11:05Thanks for the coffee.
11:05Thanks for the coffee.
11:05Thanks for the coffee.
11:07Thanks for the coffee.
11:09Thanks for the coffee.
11:10Thanks for the coffee.
11:11Thanks for the coffee.
11:13Thanks for the coffee.

14:51so
14:55so
14:59Let's go.
15:29Let's go.
15:59Let's go.
16:07Hey.
16:07Jasper, it's Coulter.
16:09I need you to come look at something.
16:13Any idea why Emily wanted to hide this from you?
16:16Yeah.
16:17Because she knew I wouldn't like it.
16:18Why's that?
16:20Her mom was a healer.
16:22Some folks thought she worked miracles.
16:24Others thought she had the devil in her.
16:26Wanted her dead.
16:30You think the house fire killed your parents?
16:33You think maybe someone was targeting your mother because of what she was doing?
16:35Yeah, I do.
16:36I've never told Emily in that, but it's the truth.
16:44People do horrible things.
16:46That's a superstition.
16:49There's no dust.
16:51Those jars were removed recently.
16:52There's a handwriting on this letter.
17:05It doesn't match what's on the walls of the desk.
17:11It's from our mother's journal.
17:12I didn't even know Emily kept it.
17:19I think Emily's hurt.
17:27Blood.
17:45Yeah.
17:47Yeah, it looks like someone took her out by quad.
17:51This property backs up to draw clan land, right?
17:54Tell me what you know about them.
17:55Um, just rumors.
17:58They, um, they live off-grid.
17:59They can jerry-rig guns.
18:01Survivalists?
18:01No, no, they used to.
18:02Supply weed to the whole region,
18:04but with medical marijuana going legal,
18:05they got, you know, darker stuff.
18:07Cops won't even touch them.
18:10Your sister might have seen something she wasn't supposed to.
18:13Move!
18:15Don't move.
18:21Bang stick.
18:22It's a shotgun shell rigged to blow.
18:26You step on this thing.
18:27I've been doing your whole day.
18:29The whole trail's probably lined with them all the way out.
18:32This trail lead to a road?
18:49Afternoon.
18:49Heard there's good hiking up here.
18:55You're in the wrong place.
18:57Road's out.
18:59No other way in there?
19:00No, sir.
19:01Best to just turn around and head back.
19:05Might try Copper Valley.
19:08Some nice views there, I'm told.
19:10Well, thanks for the tip.
19:17Have a good day.
19:18No, sir.
19:36Come in.
19:40I don't know.
20:10Come on, we don't have all day.
20:17Callie, come on.
20:31Get back to the house. Stay here.
20:39Come on.
20:40Keep moving.
20:41Get inside.
20:54You got to watch the temperature.
20:55We'll have another grab of fodder's last show from the right back.
21:08We'll be at the top right now.
21:26Ship, let's come in.
21:29Get your hand here.
21:29Nice shot, Axel.
21:50Did you see too much?
21:57What if it's true, Gideon?
21:59It's a hell of a thing to gamble on, little brother.
22:01I had to do something.
22:03And it don't work?
22:05Can't wait for all I care.
22:08All right, then.
22:09Let's take her to Big Pop.
22:10Sheepard's ready.
22:11Let's go.
22:41Let's go.
23:11Let's go.
23:41Let's go.
24:11Let's go.
24:41Let's go.
24:42Let's go.
24:43Let's go.
24:45Let's go.
24:47Let's go.
24:48Let's go.
24:49Let's go.
24:50Let's go.
24:51Let's go.
24:53Let's go.
24:55Let's go.
24:58Let's go.
24:59Let's go.
25:01Come on.
25:02Come on.
25:03Let's go.
25:04Let's go.
25:05Let's go.
25:06Let's go.
25:07Let's go.
25:08I don't know.
25:38Let the spirit of the mountain come forward.
25:45Make me your vessel.
25:53Wait, what's that?
25:57Oh, careful.
25:58He's choking.
26:01Now we just need to wait.
26:03And be patient.
26:08Are you here, spirit?
26:18Pass through me.
26:22What?
26:22Come, spirit, and relieve Roy of his pain.
26:35What the hell's going on?
26:39Pop?
26:40What are you doing to him?
26:42Pop?
26:43You're hurting him!
26:44You dumbass!
26:48Pop! Pop!
26:49What the hell did you do?
26:51Take yourself the hands off of him!
26:53Pop!
26:54You damn faker!
26:55I need more time.
26:56I'm going to kill you.
27:00Run!
27:02Get in!
27:11Go, go, go!
27:12Go, go, go!
27:16Go, go!
27:18Go, go!
27:19What happened?
27:44I stepped on something and it exploded.
27:47Bang stick?
27:49Let me see it.
27:50All right, listen, the quads can't get over here because of the fallen trees.
27:53They got to go around.
27:54It's not going to take them that long.
27:58They got no service.
28:00Main road's not too far away.
28:02I don't know what happened.
28:03I tried to help him.
28:04You're lucky this didn't take your leg off.
28:06Listen, I got to get you someplace safe where we can hide.
28:08Okay, address this properly.
28:11I remember we passed some kind of abandoned store,
28:13but I don't know if I can make it that far.
28:14You can.
28:15I'm going to help you.
28:16We're going to do it together, okay?
28:17Yeah.
28:18Ready?
28:19Let's go.
28:20There you go.
28:21You got it.
28:22Gotcha.
28:23There we go.
28:23Come on.
28:24You got to get you inside?
28:25I see something here.
28:26All right.
28:27Come on.
28:28Come on.
28:29Come on.
28:30Here we go.
28:31There we go.
28:37I see some of us here.
28:47Come on.
28:53Here we go.
29:13Service.
29:15How are you doing?
29:16Never better.
29:17Yeah?
29:18Yeah.
29:18Good.
29:19Okay, right here.
29:20Let's do something right here.
29:21Let's take a look at that back.
29:26Yeah.
29:30Yeah, let's work.
29:34It's gonna hurt a little bit.
29:36Not gonna lie.
29:38Okay.
29:39You're okay.
29:41You know, when we were young,
29:43my sister used to make potions,
29:45things like that all the time.
29:46I said she was cursing us.
29:49Deep breath.
29:50There you go.
29:52Didn't work.
29:53Well, the jury's still out, I would say,
29:55but she was very convincing and stubborn.
29:58I should have gone with you when you told me to.
30:03You did what you thought was best.
30:05Sometimes that's all we have.
30:06We're gonna have to make the town on foot.
30:08You think you can do that?
30:09Yeah?
30:09Yeah.
30:10Okay.
30:13The back door is where we're headed, okay?
30:15You and me.
30:16Okay.
30:16Come on.
30:17Here we go.
30:18All right.
30:19Ready?
30:20Yeah.
30:21All right.
30:21Of course.
30:29We're gonna have to make it towards the front door.
30:30That's the only way in or out of here.
30:36What do we do?
30:38Hide.
30:39We don't even know where we are.
30:41I almost think I'll find it once they move.
30:42Oh, no.
30:50I mean, I've got one bullet left.
30:52We'll just have to be really smart.
31:05Ethan.
31:06You go that way.
31:07How do we get past them?
31:24The important thing is to not panic.
31:27Never let panic take over.
31:31Trust me.
31:33Yeah.
31:34Yeah, come on.
31:34Come on.
31:37Here.
31:39Here we go.
31:39Right here.
31:44You stay absolutely silent.
31:46I'll be right back.
31:47Wait, wait, wait.
31:48Don't go.
31:50Okay.
31:52Take this.
31:53Just in case.
31:55Okay?
31:58I'll be right back.
31:59Okay.
31:59I'll be right back.
32:29What the hell?
32:59I don't want to hear something.
33:18Okay, excuse me.
33:22We gotta get out of here as quickly as possible, okay?
33:25We're gonna stay low.
33:26Stay quiet.
33:27All right?
33:28Don't worry.
33:29I can do it.
33:30I know you can.
33:31Come on.
33:32Wake up.
33:33Let's go.
33:39You all right?

34:07No, no, no, no, no, no.
34:08No, no, no, no, no.
34:09No, no, no, no.
34:10No, no, no, no, no.
34:12He ain't earned no easy death.
34:15Move.
34:17He'll bleed out.
34:23No!
34:25Let go of me!
34:26Shut up!

35:53Coulter!
35:56Come on, come on.
36:09Say something.
36:12Now this is the point where I watch you bleed out, and then I take her.
36:18It's just him.
36:19We can take him.
36:20I'm not going to make it.
36:21I'm not going to make it.
36:22I'm not going to make it.

36:31Gideon, what are you?
36:32Big Pop.
36:33He's alive.
36:36No more than that.
36:37He's awake, moving around.
36:41Girl, she healed him.
36:43It's a miracle.
36:45You were right to bring her to us.
36:49As your miracle pleases.
36:50Let her go.
36:52No.
36:53She belongs to us now.
36:56We paid in blood for her.
37:02I wouldn't do that if I were you.
37:09Why the hell shouldn't we?
37:11Because as easily as I healed your father, I can curse him too.
37:15And your entire family for generations.
37:18No, that's a damn lie.
37:19I got the blood of your family lying right here.
37:22All I gotta do is mix it with mine and call on the spirit.
