The Dark

This film contains some strong language.

(SCREAMING)

(CHANTING IN WELSH)

Some travel partner you are.

-You're supposed to keep the driver company, honey, OK?

-This isn't it.

This is a road and here, look,... this is a road.

Is that the road we're on, Mom?

There won't be any signal out here.

We're not lost.

-(SIGHS) (Shit!)

-We should have stayed at a hotel in Cardiff.

We wanted to surprise your dad, didn't we?

Don't you wanna surprise your dad?

(Shit!)

We're not lost! (SIGHS)

(THUNDER RUMBLES)

Sweetheart...

(GASPS)

Sarah.

Hey.

Sarah, time to go.

Sarah.

Sarah!

Sarah!

SARAH!

(WHIMPERS) SARAH!

SARAH! SARAH!

(WHISPERING) (GASPS / SHRIEKS)

-(SHRIEKS) Get out!

-(BLEATS)

-What is it?

-(HONKS HORN)

Mom, stop it! It's just sheep!

Just some stupid sheep!

(GASPS)

(GROANS)

-(SIGHS)

-Ohhhhhhhhhh!

I have a brilliant idea.

Why don't we go down and see if we can find your dad's house?

Are you gonna tell him?

Hm,... do you want me to?

No.

OK.

(Wow!)

(CHUCKLES) This is so your father!

DADDY!

DADDY!

Sarah!

Hey,... what a surprise! I wasn't expecting to see you till tomorrow.

-You're not upset we're early?

-I'm not upset at all. I'm happy.

Hey, why the tears, huh?

I'm just happy to see you.

I'm happy to see you, too.

Top of the mornin' to you, James.

-Hi.

-Hi.

How are you? Wow, wow, wow, look at this house!

-For you.

-Oh, thank you very much.

Sarah wanted to get here so... We actually arrived last night.

But our car got stuck in the mud down... yonder. I tried to call.

-But there's no signal.

-No signal.

-So we had a sleep-over in the car,

didn't we, baby? And we had a close encounter with some sheep.

-Ha! Sure moved far enough.

-Well, far off is the way us weirdos like it.

Dafydd, would you mind giving us a hand with Adele's car later?

-No, not at all.

-Thanks.

This is Dafydd, he can fix anything.

-Hello.

-Dafydd, is that, like, David?

-Exactly like David.

-Daf, Dai...

-Dave. Hey, Dave.

Missus.

Watch these. Jeez, you're getting big, aren't ya?

-How old are ya? 18, 19?

-Quite a nice little hideaway

-you've built for yourself.

-Yeah, it's coming along.

-Yeah.

Oh, I love this. Look at you, painting and sculpting like crazy.

-There's an abattoir on the property I'll turn into my studio.

-Really?

-What's an abattoir?

-A place where they kill animals.

-Nice.

-By the way, your rooms are upstairs.

-Can I go see?

-Yeah, sure.

-First door on your left.

-OK.

So...

So...

-What's wrong with Sarah?

-Nothing.

Just a bit of a loner. Like father, like daughter, I guess.

She's fine. We're fine. We just missed you. I...

I missed you.

(WHISPERING)

(WHISPERING CONTINUES)

(BANGING)

(DOOR BANGS / CREAKS)

(DOOR CREAKS)

-Yeah, this is your room.

-Yeah, it's great.

-Why, you've been working a lot. Look at this.

-Yeah, I know.

Er,... it's a bit of a mess. Tell ya what, I'll find somewhere

-to put the rest of this stuff.

-No, it's fine, it's fine.

(WINDOW CREAKS / BANGS)

-(SIGHS)

-Sarah, where are you?

-I'm up here.

-Makin' a mess already?

-Wow, look at this place...

-What do they open?

-No idea. Found them all over the place,

-but they don't fit any of the locks.

-This is a funky little room.

Yeah, it's a storage room or something.

-What are we gonna store up here?

-You, if you're bad.

And we'll let you out when you think about what you did, young lady.

-You like your room?

-It's got a telescope.

Yeah, you can watch out for ships in distress.

(TAPS)

SOS. Save Our Souls.

Elvis! Here, boy!

-(BARKS)

-Elvis!

Sarah?

Sarah, don't get too close to the edge.

Hey,... what did you find there?

-A secret.

-A secret?

Looks like someone made off with the plaque. Why would they do that?

"Ann, Annwn."

Not Annwn, Annoon. It's Welsh.

-For what?

-The place you go after you die.

-Like heaven?

-That's right.

Sarah, better go and find Elvis.

-Time to go.

-I'll go with you, baby.

She's fine. Be careful.

-Elvis!

-What's it commemorate anyway?

-Stumblehead, isn't it?

-Stumblehead?

There were some people lived up here about 50 years ago...

Kept themselves to themselves...

-Made up their own religion based on old Welsh legends.

-Elvis!

Do unto others,... sin, salvation...

-Same as most faiths.

-So why put up a monument?

(SIGHS) Well,... they had themselves a kind of minister,

who preached them sick up here.

Till one day the lot of them suddenly up and walked off the cliff

looking for a way to end their earthly suffering.

-Jesus! What a way to die!

-They didn't think they were dying.

Thought they were going to Annwn.

(GASPS)

-(SHRIEKS)

-You would hate to change your mind halfway down!

-(SCREAMS)

-SARAH!

(SCREAMS / GASPS)

-You OK? I've got you, sweetheart. You alright?

-They just ran at me!

-My, God, Sarah, are you alright? Oh, baby, look at -

-(GASPS) I'm fine!

-Oh, my God, look at you -

-I said I'm fine!

She's fine, Adele.

-'Hello...? Hello.'

-'Where have you been?'

-Mommy's been a bad girl.

-You've been out all night.

-(Yes.)

-I'm going to live with dad.

-Sarah, we've been through this.

-I talked to him and he said -

-I know, he said that -

-He said I could stay as long as I wanted.

-Yes.

-When you're done with school, you can visit your father in England.

-Wales!

-I'm going to live with Dad!

-Sarah...!

-I know what this is about, you know?

-It's none of your goddamn business.

'It's all about you. You don't love anybody but your fucking self!'

-(SHRIEKS)

-Sorry, didn't mean to scare you.

-It's OK.

-What you writing about?

Hm, I see. Secret is it?

Girls' stuff. (CHUCKLES)

Everything alright with you?

You seem a little, I don't know... Wanna talk about anything?

-No.

-You sure?

-No.

Be nice to your mother. She does her best, you know?

-I missed you.

-I missed you, too.

I'll see you later.

-(Good night.)

-Good night.

-You don't love anybody but your fucking self!

-STOP IT!

-Agh!

-(SHRIEKS)

(Oh, God.)

See...?

I hate you! I hate you!

-Sarah!

-I can't stand this any more!

(DOG BARKS)

ELVIS! Shut your noise!

It's just the bloody sheep!

-(TAPS)

-P-A-I... Paint.

-(SIGHS) You didn't let me do the N or the T!

-Gimme another.

-(TAPS)

-R-O... Rock?

-Dad! You did it again!

-OK, I'll let you finish it this time.

Honest. L-O-S... E?

-Lose?

-No.

R. Loser?

-You callin' me a loser, eh?

-(GIGGLES) Well, if the shoe fits...!

-Can we go exploring?

-Sarah,...

..do you wanna go for a walk?

-Hey.

-Listen, er, I'll show you two a shortcut down to the beach.

Yeah?

-Here, put this on, baby.

-Why?

-Er, because it's cold and you'll need it.

-It's chilly down there.

(Fine.)

-Hey, Dave.

-Whoa, you don't wanna come closer!

Dirty work. These are from yesterday.

-They fell from up there.

-They didn't fall.

-They jumped.

-What do you mean, they jumped?

-They jumped.

-I've seen sheep behave in many an odd way.

But I've never seen them do something like this in a while.

(CHUCKLES) Maybe they just got plain fed up, huh?

-Couldn't take it any more.

-What are you gonna do with them?

-Funeral pyre.

-I'll give you a hand, Dafydd.

I'll catch up with you, yeah?

I'm so happy we're here, baby. Look at this place.

What did you find there?

What is it...?

Hey, be careful on those rocks, alright?

(SCREAMING)

Sarah!

Baby!

Sarah, let's get back to your Dad's. C'mon, chop-chop!

Sarah, come on! Let's go!

Where are you? Sarah!

Let's go! Sarah!

Sarah...!

Sarah, come out now. It's not funny!

Sarah!

SARAH! JAMES! JAMES!

HELP HER! Ja...!

-(SCREAMS) James!

-ADELE!

Sarah!

Sarah!

Sarah!

Sarah! (GASPS)

-Help!

-ADELE!

-Help, James!

-ADELE!

Adele!

-Where's Sarah?

-(GASPS)

-Oh, God! She fell in! God!

-SARAH!

-SARAH!

-Oh, my God! No!

-I let her go!

-Sarah!

-No! No, let me go!

-No!

-Oh, God, let me go!

-No!

-(SOBS)

-He'll find her.

-Sarah!

-Oh, God!

We'll begin again at first light.

Though I must say it,...

-..you should prepare yourself.

-My daughter could be alive out there,

waiting for us to find her.

The boats have lights, your men have lights.

Then, we search all fucking night if we have to!

I can't stay here, Adele.

I'm going down to join the search.

Adele...?

I'll find her. (MUTTERS)

(BANGING)

-I hate you!

-(GASPS) Sarah?

-I can't stand this any more!

(GASPS / SOBS)

And on the count of three I want you to open this door. Don't test me!

-Sarah!

-(SCREAMS) Mom!

-One...

-Mom! Help me!

James, help her! James! (SCREAMS)

(GASPS / PANTS)

Oh, my God! Sarah? SARAH!

(GASPS / PANTS)

SARAH?

SARAH!

Are you in here?

(CHAINS CLINK)

(SCRAPING) (GASPS)

(BANGING) (WHIMPERS)

(GASPS) (Sarah?)

(Oh, God. Sarah.)

-(Sarah?)

-Is that who you're looking for?

(GASPS / PANTS)

(WELSH ACCENT) You won't find her here.

This is where the sheep come to die.

-The sheep?

-But before they go,

they must have the filth taken from them.

And that's what he does for them.

With scrapes and hooks he cleans hell from their heads.

He...?

-Who is he?

-The Shepherd.

All that you see is of his making.

It's alright! It's alright...!

-I'm not gonna hurt you, OK?

-I told you!

-You won't find her here!

-Wait. (Just wait.)

(GASPS)

(CHAINS CLINK)

(INDISTINCT CHANTING / WHISPERING)

I want you to get me in there, see?

-Can you get me there, close to that shelf?

-Not till the tide's back in.

-How long?

-Another hour.

I saw a girl.

-You saw a girl?

-Yes, out in the yard.

-What?

-I followed her out to the abattoir.

-Into the abattoir?

Yes. She said something. She said something about the Shepherd.

-And she said something else in Welsh. I couldn't understand her!

-Adele.

-I couldn't understand her...

-Adele,... you saw Sarah?

-No. And when I went to touch her -

-Please, Adele, you saw Sarah?

No.

You've cut your hand. Why don't you let me have a look at it?

(SOBS) I don't know why I thought it was her but it wasn't.

But it wasn't her!

It's OK.

(SOBS / MOANS)

'Before we left New York, Sarah and I had a fight.'

(I was a bad mother.)

You weren't.

-You aren't.

-Hmm.

-You did your best - we both did -

and we made mistakes. She loves you, Adele.

We both do.

(WHISTLING)

(THUDDING)

(THUDDING CONTINUES)

(THUDDING CONTINUES)

(WINDOW BANGS / CREAKS)

-(SCREAMS)

-Beg your pardon, missus.

I-I just came to pick up James. Are you alright?

I'm fine.

I'm alright.

(It was just...) It was just, er...

I thought I heard something upstairs tapping.

And, er, Sarah and James play this SOS game.

They used to play this game. Waiting here frightens me...

-How you holding up?

-I don't know how this could have happened.

I should have been there with them.

Why don't you go back and stay with her?

I'll let you know if we find anything.

I wasn't there when she was lost.

I want to be there when she's found.

(Who are you?)

"Annwn."

(SHRIEKS)

(Jesus!)

"May 16th, 1952. Put down six sheep."

"Panicked."

Look at this. OK, OK, "May 17th, put down seven sheep."

"Burnt bodies to contain illness. Cause unknown." There's pages of it!

Sheep dying for unknown reasons. Er, sick shit!

Sheep dissection and trepanning! And then over here it says,

it says, "She is doing it." She is killing the sheep.

-Who is she? Who is she?

-I don't know who she is, Adele.

-I don't know.

-OK, look at this, alright?

-It's her.

-The girl you saw in the abattoir?

Yes, the same girl I saw the night Sarah went missing.

Adele, we didn't find her. We didn't find her today.

-ARE YOU LISTENING TO ME?!

-YES, I'M LISTENING!

-Maybe we're just not looking in the right places!

-This is crazy.

Can you hear yourself? Can you? I'm down there, Adele,

all those people are down there, looking for our dead daughter!

And you're running round the moors drawing pictures!

(Jesus!) I'm sorry.

-Adele?

-(SLAMS DOOR)

-Found what you're looking for?

-Oh, yes, I'm fine, thank you.

-A-Actually, do you speak Welsh?

-Only to bother the English.

Would you mind looking at this for me?

"Derbynwy y plant afradlon yn d l Gesail Annwn."

Well, plain enough, it means, "The children were received back

into the armpit of Annwn." But probably more like,

-"The children were taken into the embrace of Annwn."

-Taken?

Welsh mythology is full of that sort of thing.

-The living and the dead crossing back and forth, you know?

-Like what?

You found it there. "Creiddylad."

She was pulled into Annwn by a dark spirit.

Her husband had to cross over to get her back.

(The Shepherd...)

"The Shepherd And His Flock."

"Mass suicide."

"The Shepherd with his late daughter, Ebrill."

(Ebrill.)

Is that who you're looking for?

Ebrill...

(GRUNTS)

Aaaagh! Agh!

(BANGING)

James?

(GASPS / PANTS) James?

(THUDDING)

Who's there?

Someone out there? (BANGING)

Who's out there?

Open the door. OPEN THE DOOR!

(CHILD SOBS) (Sarah?)

Sarah? (Is that you?)

(SOBS / WHINES)

Listen to me. OK?

I'm gonna count to three.

And before I get to three you will open this door.

OK...?

One... (DOOR CLICKS)

(GASPS) Sarah?

-James! She's here.

-Who's here?

Ebrill, the Shepherd's daughter. She's upstairs in Sarah's bed!

-Adele, please.

-She knows where Sarah is. She knows, she knows!

-You've gotta believe me, James.

-Sarah drowned, Sarah's dead.

She's not! She's not! I feel it, I know it, James!

Jesus, Adele, it's over! It's done! We've called it off.

Do you get that? I've called off the search!

'(Hush. Shhh, don't cry.)'

Don't cry. (Mummy's here.)

(SINGS / HUMS)

Ebrill?

Do you remember me from the abattoir?

You know where Sarah is, don't you?

James, I think she knows this place, she knows it.

This is the Shepherd's house.

-Yes, this was the Shepherd's house, wasn't it?

-A long time ago.

And he lived here... all by himself.

No, no, no,... he lived here with you.

Ebrill, don't you remember?

(I was very sick.)

That's the room.

Show us. Tell us about the room.

That's the room where the Shepherd kept his little lamb.

(GASPS / PANTS)

And never let her out, no matter how she cried.

Agh, don't hurt me! Please, don't hurt me!

Take her out to the place where the sheep go to die.

(SCREAMS)

The abattoir?

-(WHIMPERS)

-Your father cut your head like he did the sheep, didn't he?

And she begged and begged and begged him to stop hurting her head!

(SCREAMS) But the dark had to come out of it somehow.

-It's OK.

-(WHIMPERS)

(CHANTS IN WELSH)

-Don't you want your lock box back?

-No, no, no, no!

-What's in the box?

-Please don't make me go up there.

-Tell me what's in the box!

-No!

-Adele!

-Listen to me. She knows where Sarah is!

-Just stop it, Adele!

-Just leave it for a minute, OK? Let me talk to her.

-(SOBS)

Come on.

I can't help you unless you tell me where you came from.

Do you know where your parents live?

Eh...?

Do you know who you are,... where you came from?

Why is she so angry at me?

She's not angry at you.

She's just very sad that our,...

-..our daughter is gone.

-Did you love her?

Yeah.

-Very much.

-Do you think that she knew that you loved her?

I,... I think so. Yes, I hope so.

I think she did.

Look at you, you're filthy!

Let's get you cleaned up and find someone who knows who you are.

These should fit you.

OK. When you're done, you come and talk to me, OK?

Don't worry. Everything's gonna be alright.

(THUDDING)

(GASP / GRUNTS)

(GASPS / SHRIEKS)

Adele! Adele!

-What are you doing?

-(GASPS / PANTS)

-What's that?

-(It's Sarah's sweater.)

Now look at it. (Oh, James, it's a message.)

-From who?

-From our daughter.

She's telling us how to find her.

(I know where she is.)

What...? Where?

Where is she?

She's gone... to a much better place.

-You know what this is, don't you? DO YOU KNOW WHAT THIS IS?

-Adele!

-THIS IS SARAH'S! TELL ME WHERE SHE IS!

-Adele, please!

-YOU KNOW WHERE!

-(SCREAMS)

-No!

-Oh, God!

-(Jesus!)

-(WHIMPERS / MUTTERS)

-Jesus Christ, Adele!

-This is insane.

-(I'm sorry, I'm sorry.)

(I'm sorry! I'm sorry!)

(GASPS / GRUNTS)

That girl's head's been cut open more times than I can account for.

-Cut open?

-Yes, she was bleeding

from what appeared to be an unhealed trepanning wound.

That's right, you heard me - trepanning. Primitive medicine.

Cutting through the skull to cure diseases and mental illness.

Who would do such a thing to a child?

I was hoping that you might explain that to me.

My daughter is alive.

Creiddylad.

A sweet young girl taken beneath the waves

-and held prisoner in the land of the dead.

-Ebrill's been dead 50 years,

and now she's here living and breathing. Explain that to me!

-You should leave it.

-Leave it?

Imagine what a parent would do for their child. LOOK AT ME!

Imagine what I'm willing to do!

That's what I've been afraid of.

(SIGHS)

She was a sickly girl from birth.

When she died,... he gave her to the waves.

'He gave her to Annwn.'

'But he couldn't let her go.'

'He needed her to be with him more than he needed her to be at peace.'

'His followers were as his flock.'

'But he lied to them, played upon their fears.'

'Convinced them that this was the way to Paradise.'

'He believed the old legends.'

'One of the living for one of the dead.'

'Annwn might give back his child

if he gave it someone in return.'

(CHANTS IN WELSH)

(CONTINUES TO CHANT)

(SCREAMS)

'He killed them all to bring her back.'

'That's what he was willing to do for his child.'

Hello.

(WEAKLY) What happened?

You fell down. How are you feeling?

Hey, don't cry. Everything's gonna be alright.

You know what? You know what you need to do?

You need to picture the thing that you want more than anything else.

Can you do that?

Don't tell me, don't tell anyone.

You just keep picturing that thing that you want.

And one day you'll find that you don't have to picture it any more.

It'll be right there in front of you.

Can you see it?

(Can you be my daddy?)

Oh, sweetheart,... I,...

..I can't.

Why not?

Because I already have a daughter.

What if she never comes back?

-Oh, my God! You were there!

-Only I didn't jump.

My father did,...

..my mother did.

But I was too afraid. I couldn't.

The Shepherd took me in.

And I helped him with the sheep until Ebrill came back.

-She came back?

-She came back.

'Alive.'

'But something came back with her, in her.'

'It was then the sheep began to die.'

'He locked her in that room up there.'

'He tried to cut the dark from her, like we did with the sheep.'

(WHIMPERS) Please, no!

(CHANTS IN WELSH)

(SOBS) Don't, please!

(WHISPERS IN WELSH)

Agh, don't hurt me! Please, don't hurt... (SCREAMS)

'But finally I couldn't watch him hurt her any more.'

Please, Dafydd, unlock the door.

-Please.

-'I unlocked the door.'

Father?

-(SCREAMS)

-'The darkness in her struck out.'

'She should never have been brought back from death.'

'So I sent her back myself.'

'I should have gone with her.'

'To make sure she stayed.'

'Because she has found a way to return from Annwn.'

And that way is Sarah.

My daughter is alive.

Get security immediately!

Yes. Can I speak to my husband?

He came in with a patient earlier, the young girl found this evening.

What?

No, that's OK. Thank you. Thanks very much.

Ebrill's gone.

-Are you sure she'll be here?

-She'll be here.

You wait here.

Ebrill,... where are you?

I know you're here.

You remember me, don't you?

You can't stay on this side.

You know that. You belong with the dead.

Ebrill?

-No. No-one's gonna die any more.

You can fix it. You don't have to do it alone.

I'll help you, alright? Alright?

-OK?

-She's cold down there.

And alone.

-She's been calling to you.

-I know, I heard her.

Looks like such a long way down.

But it's not, really it's not.

EBRILL! EBRILL!

-ADELE, DON'T LET HER!

-JAMES, WAIT!

-WAIT!

-Ebrill, come away from there!

-Come away!

-It's OK, sweetheart, it's OK.

Ebrill, I can be your father!

-NO!

-I can look after you.

-NO!

-Just come away from there.

-I know what I'm doing, please!

-Come away!

-Trust me.

-NO!

-(GASPS) No!

-James!

-NO!

-I'm going to get our baby back.

-Father, help me!

-Help! Help me!

-There must be some other way.

-NO!

-I'm going to bring our baby back!

Please, Adele! Oh, no!

(GASPS) NO!

(GASPS / PANTS) Oh, God, no!

Ebrill, where are we?

Don't you recognise it?

Sarah knew it right away.

Sarah? Where is she?!

-Where is Sarah?

-He has her.

'(And he doesn't think you deserve her either.)'

I'm taking her home!

Try and see what happens.

'(WHISPERS) Mommy!'

'(WHISPERS) Mommy!'

'(WHISPERS) I'm here.'

(MUFFLED) Why?!

When I was lost, I kept picturing this one thing.

One thing I wanted more than anything.
