TVTranscript
00:00It all started with a scream.
00:03You know, he's coming when the fog rolls in.
00:05I think I just saw someone.
00:11This is an ice.
00:18It's Popeye. He's back.
00:30It all began with a scream.
00:37A mother was giving birth to a son, but complications led to a C-section.
00:42The doctor informed the parents that nothing could be done for the child's deformity.
00:46Despite the shock, they promised to love him.
00:49As he grew, his peers bullied him, but a few showed kindness.
00:53Over time, the cruelty took a toll, and one day, in frustration, he killed a bully.
00:59Terrified, he confessed to his parents, who locked him in the basement to protect him.
01:03He had a friend there, communicating through notes and drawings.
01:07But when news of the murder spread, an angry mob gathered outside.
01:11They set the house on fire, and the parents perished in the flames.
01:15The child tried to save his friend, but the basement door was too strong.
01:19He fled the burning house, but the townsfolk found him at the dock.
01:23But he sank into the lake, never to be seen again,
01:27as a thick fog rolled in, concealing his body.
01:31Next, we see Mia sitting by the lake, lost in thought, when her friend Cherry suddenly startles her.
01:37Alan approaches, saying he doesn't want any play-acting while they're around,
01:41and Cherry agrees, stressing the fate of their channel is at stake.
01:45She then says she has some great ideas to improve things.
01:48And when he asks how, Cherry responds that it's a surprise, and then starts kissing him.
01:54Mia interrupts, saying she has a bad feeling.
01:57And Alan says she always has a bad feeling.
02:00But when Mia points toward the fog, Alan, shocked, asks if she got it on footage.
02:06Cherry questions why, saying it's just fog.
02:09To which Alan replies, you know he comes when the fog rolls in.
02:13He explains that 15 years ago, a little boy they called Popeye drowned in this lake,
02:19and says they will film more of the lake when the fog comes further in.
02:23As night falls, they begin filming, and Alan greets his viewers on the Haunted Houses of Evil,
02:29a series that explores the homes of murderers.
02:32He shares the legend of Johnny, nicknamed Popeye,
02:36who strangled a schoolmate so violently that the victim's eyes popped out.
02:40Cherry adds that the townspeople burned the house down with Popeye inside,
02:44and Alan explains that, despite its grim past, the house was recently bought and is being renovated.
02:51Cherry notes that the current owner is uncertain about the house's future,
02:55as many people have gone missing in the area.
02:58Suddenly, Mia notices a figure pass behind them and quickly tells them she saw someone.
03:04Cherry asks if she just ruined the take, but Mia whispers that she truly saw someone over there.
03:09They visit the house, and Cherry suggests starting in the basement, which Alan agrees to,
03:15but Mia proposes staying upstairs to capture sound while they go down for footage.
03:20Cherry retorts that's not what they're paying her for, but Alan likes the idea and tells Mia to grab some sound.
03:27Alan and Cherry enter the basement, and Alan comments that everything looks just like the photographs from the newspaper.
03:33He asks if she thinks the ghosts of Popeye's parents still linger in the house, but Cherry steps closer and says she enjoys having an audience.
03:42She then starts kissing him and tells him to keep the camera rolling, suggesting they try something different.
03:48They then begin making out, and suddenly a figure passes by quickly.
03:53Meanwhile, while recording sound near the lake, Mia suddenly hears a noise, and we see a figure on the other side of the lake.
04:00A strange whispering sound fills her headphones, making her rip them off in alarm, and in the next moment, Popeye appears behind her and knocks her down.
04:09Terrified, Mia screams in pain, struggling to escape, but he looms over her and, without hesitation, stomps on her head, killing her brutally.
04:20Back in the basement, as Alan and Cherry are caught up in the moment, Popeye suddenly drives his hand into Cherry's stomach, killing her instantly, and Alan, horrified, scrambles to his feet and flees in terror.
04:33He ducks behind a generator, struggling to control his breathing, and watches in horror as Popeye scans the room, searching for him.
04:41After some time, Popeye turns and leaves the place, and seizing the opportunity, Alan quietly attempts to escape.
04:49But Popeye suddenly returns, and knocks him down with a hammer.
04:53Alan struggles as Popeye attempts to strangle him, but he grabs the hammer and strikes Popeye in the head, momentarily breaking free.
05:01With great effort, he drags himself toward the stairs, only to see Popeye coming after him.
05:07He begins climbing, but his broken leg slows him down.
05:10Popeye catches up, grabs his head, and squeezes with inhuman strength, causing Alan's eyes to burst from their sockets,
05:18before he finally dies.
05:20Just then, a note slips out from under the door, welcoming Popeye back.
05:28After this, we see George trying to convince Laura to sell the Popeye house,
05:32which was left to her by a history teacher who had worked with her before passing away.
05:36Laura insists they are not selling it, and just then, their daughter Tara arrives.
05:41They stand up and hug her, and Laura mentions that her friend has been waiting outside for a long time.
05:47After this, Tara meets her other friends and thanks them for their help, saying it truly means the world to her.
05:53Nick asks if the house is haunted, to which she replies that there have been many theories circulating online about what happened.
06:00However, one recurring story is that he drowned in the lake, so they're staying far away from it.
06:06Nick mentions that he only knew the house burned down a few years ago, and asks if they plan to tear down whatever remains and rebuild it.
06:14To which Dylan clarifies that the house has already been rebuilt.
06:18Max questions who would have done that, and Tara says she thinks it was the fans of the legend that rebuilt it.
06:24Regardless, in the coming days, they plan to turn Popeye's house into a haunted house attraction.
06:31On their way to Popeye's house, they accidentally hit a man, and when he asks where they are heading in a hurry, Tara mentions her parents own the Popeye's house.
06:40The man asks if they're seriously going there, warning them about the rumors, to which Skye dismisses it as campfire stories.
06:47But the man sternly warns them not to go near the house and to stay out of the fog, as it's lethal.
06:54Meanwhile, the others arrive at the house, and Kathy notes that there's no signal.
06:59The others then also arrive there, and when Nick asks why the house is clean, Tara explains that she and her dad have been coming here once a month to clean up and discuss ideas for the place.
07:10Suddenly, a scream pierces the air, and they rush to the back of the house, finding Kathy, standing by the hot tub.
07:17Meanwhile, Popeye steps out of his boat, sensing the presence of the group at the house.
07:23Later, as Tara works, Dylan notices and asks how she gets a signal out here, to which she explains that certain spots in the area have reception, and this cabin happens to be one of them.
07:35Before Dylan can respond, Tara shows him the forecast, revealing thick fog from sunset to sunrise, which wasn't expected.
07:43Dylan says they can handle it, but Tara explains it will shorten the days, meaning she'll need to push everyone to work harder.
07:50Meanwhile, the man is fishing at the lake when he suddenly senses someone nearby.
07:55Growing uneasy, he stands up and looks around, but before he can react, Popeye attacks, strangling him to death.
08:02Back at the house, Tara tells everyone that since the weather has taken a turn, it would be a good idea to get a few hours of work done before the fog rolls in from the lake.
08:12However, Kathy and Skye insist they can just do it in the morning.
08:16Donna and Dylan try to convince them otherwise, and Nick chimes in, agreeing that it'll be easier if they all pitch in now.
08:23Meanwhile, George is still trying to convince Laura to sell the house when they are interrupted by Dylan's mother, Jane, who urgently tells Laura he's back.
08:32Concerned, Laura steps outside, and Jane hands her a newspaper with the headline,
08:37Three dead in the Popeye house.
08:39Jane anxiously asks if she knows where the kids are, but Laura tells her that George is home, and they'll talk about it tomorrow.
08:46At Popeye's house, a woman knocks on the door, startling everyone.
08:51Tara answers and asks if they can help her, but the woman warns they shouldn't be there.
08:56Tara insists her dad owns the place, but the woman steps inside, saying if they leave now, he won't hurt them.
09:03When Nick asks what she is going to do, she replies,
09:06It's not what I will do.
09:07Donna dismisses her, pointing out they outnumber her, and she has no one to call.
09:12The woman insists it's her house, but Donna sarcastically suggests calling a mental hospital before shutting the door on her, telling her to leave.
09:20However, Tara follows the woman and apologizes, asking if there's anything they can do.
09:26But the woman replies that she wants them all to suffer the way he suffered.
09:31Pointing at the house, the woman tells Tara,
09:34You are the one, and he is coming to get you.
09:37Then, without another word, she runs away.
09:40Meanwhile, Laura tries to call Tara, but the call goes to voicemail.
09:44Back at Papa's house, Skye and Nick are getting intimate when she suddenly tells him to break up with Donna.
09:50Shocked, he pushes her back, but she insists she's done hiding their relationship.
09:55Nick teases that the risk makes it exciting, but Skye pulls away, saying maybe she wants to get caught.
10:02As she gets up, he grabs her, asking what she's doing, to which she warns that if he doesn't tell Donna, she will.
10:09Frustrated, Nick snaps, shoving her back and declaring it's over, saying he never wants to see her again.
10:15Climbing out of the tub, he says,
10:17Way to ruin the mood, before leaving.
10:20Angry and frustrated, Skye grabs her phone and texts Donna, revealing everything about her and Nick.
10:27And as she hits send, the fog outside the house grows thicker, creeping in ominously.
10:32And she becomes slightly frightened upon noticing it.
10:35Alarmed, she looks around but then relaxes, choosing to ignore it.
10:39However, Popeye slowly approaches her with an anchor and strangles her with it.
10:44Skye struggles to break free, but Popeye ultimately drowns her in the water, causing her to suffocate and die after some time.
10:52The woman then arrives and tells Popeye it is them, saying this is what you've been waiting for.
10:57Skye's phone then buzzes, showing that the message she sent to Donna has failed.
11:02The next morning, Tara asks if anyone has seen Skye, to which Nick replies that he saw her leaving in a taxi.
11:09And when Tara asks why, he says he doesn't know.
11:12Meanwhile, Max approaches Kathy and asks if they can go on a date, to which she takes his phone,
11:18snaps a picture of herself, and hands it back to him, saying he wouldn't want to date her anyway,
11:23and that he can do whatever he wants with the photo.
11:26Frustrated, Max leaves the house, mumbling,
11:29Who does she think she is?
11:31Suddenly, he hears a noise and turns around to check, but sees no one there.
11:35Ignoring it, he continues walking and reaches the dock.
11:39Curious, he approaches Popeye's boat and jumps aboard.
11:42As he looks around, a strange smell catches his attention, making him uneasy.
11:47He decides to get off the boat, and we see the fisherman's lifeless body.
11:52Max sits down on the decking, takes out his phone, and starts jerking off while looking at Kathy's picture.
11:58But suddenly, Popeye attacks him with his anchor, making Max scream in pain.
12:03Popeye climbs onto the decking from behind.
12:06And before Max can react, Popeye grabs his head, drives his hand into Max's back, and rips out his spine.
12:13He then seizes Max's head once more, and violently tears it from his body.
12:17Meanwhile, as Donna takes a picture of her friends, Skye's message finally gets delivered.
12:23Kathy asks,
12:24Did you just get a signal?
12:25But Donna looks at Nick, and realizing the situation, he quickly follows after her.
12:30Jane visits Laura, telling her that she found Dylan's diary and is certain they have gone to the house.
12:36Laura quickly leaves, and George asks what's going on, but Laura returns and says the keys are gone.
12:42Nick denies Skye's claims, but Donna asks how he could cheat on her.
12:47Nick explains, a man has needs, and when she asks why he doesn't date Skye, he replies,
12:53Because she's not the one I want as my wife?
12:56Frustrated, Donna turns to leave, but he stops her, begging to talk.
13:00She slaps him, saying she never wants to see him again before storming out, and in a rage, Nick punches aboard, breaking it and injuring his hand.
13:09Just then, a can of spinach is thrown in from outside, startling Nick.
13:15Intrigued, he cautiously approaches it and picks it up, but before he can make sense of anything, a thick fog seeps into the room.
13:23Through the mist, he sees Popeye charging at him, but Nick manages to knock him down and starts throwing punches at his face, but Popeye snaps his hand and hurls him across the room.
13:33As Nick turns around, Popeye moves towards him, and Nick asks, What are you? Instead of answering, Popeye lunges at him, forcing him to drop his knife.
13:42Seizing control, Popeye then drags Nick toward the broken wooden board and brutally kills him by pressing his eye into a piece of wood that was coming out.
13:51Meanwhile, Donna finds an axe lodged in one of the car's tires and immediately assumes Nick is behind it.
13:57Frustrated, she storms back to the room, but freezes in terror seeing Nick's lifeless body there.
14:04Then, noticing shattered glass on the floor, Donna hesitantly pulls back the curtain, only to find that woman standing there.
14:12Fear grips her as she stumbles backward, overwhelmed by the eerie scene, but Popeye suddenly startles her, causing her to bolt from the room screaming.
14:21Meanwhile, Dylan wakes Tara up and tells her they have no idea where anyone is.
14:27Outside, Tara asks Kathy where everyone is, to which she says she searched everywhere.
14:32Dylan suggests, Let's not panic, saying they probably just went to get some beer or something.
14:38Kathy agrees, but when Tara asks, Did she check the lake? Kathy remains quiet.
14:43Tara heads off to check, but Kathy stops Dylan, saying, Let her go, and she'll be back in a minute.
14:50When Tara reaches the house, she notices a photo lying there.
14:54Curious, she picks it up and gets shocked to see her mother in it.
14:58Meanwhile, Donna hides behind a tree, holding her breath as Popeye stalks past.
15:03And just as she attempts to escape, Annette suddenly snaps around her, trapping her.
15:09Tara returns to Dylan and Kathy, showing them the picture she found.
15:13Dylan notes his mom has the same one, but Tara points out a child in the background that isn't in hers.
15:19When Dylan asks why it's so badly burnt, Tara replies, who isn't supposed to be in the picture.
15:25Meanwhile, as Donna struggles to free herself from the net, a lawnmower's headlights suddenly flicker on,
15:32and her breath catches in her throat as she sees Popeye sitting behind the wheel.
15:36As Popeye drives the tractor towards her, she cries, desperately pleading him to stop.
15:41She screams for help, but Popeye doesn't slow down, and drives forward, running the lawnmower straight over her.
15:48The others hear Donna's blood-curdling scream, and immediately rush in that direction.
15:53And when they arrive, they find her writhing in agony.
15:57Popeye turns toward them, prompting them to turn and flee the scene.
16:01As they sprint through the woods, Kathy suddenly stumbles and falls.
16:05But Dylan and Tara don't notice and leave her behind.
16:08Kathy is terrified when she sees Popeye standing there, and she screams in fear before running away from there.
16:14Just then, a car arrives and comes to a stop.
16:17Jane, Laura, and George step out, searching for their kids.
16:21But they leave the keys in the ignition.
16:23They reach the house, and Laura suggests that the kids must be in the cabins.
16:28But just then, they spot someone hiding behind a tree.
16:31George asks, what are they two hiding from him?
16:34To which Laura replies that she will explain everything once they find Tara.
16:38Suddenly, Popeye attacks Jane, strangling her so violently that her eyes pop out.
16:44George and Laura run away and find Tara and Dylan.
16:47And when Dylan asks how they knew where to find them, Laura explains that his mom showed her the press article.
16:54Dylan asks, my mom is here?
16:56But they reveal the truth about her death, and Laura then urges them to leave immediately.
17:01Kathy manages to reach the car and frantically tries to start it, but it won't start.
17:07And her horror deepens when she sees Popeye standing in front of the vehicle.
17:11As he slowly approaches, she screams in fear while trying to start the car.
17:16But with terrifying strength, he lifts the car from one side and flips it over.
17:21Kathy gets injured, trapped inside the car.
17:24And meanwhile, Popeye strikes a match and throws it onto the gasoline leaking from the vehicle, causing the car to explode.
17:31The group returns to the cabin, and George asks Laura what's going on.
17:35To which she reveals that the stories they've heard for the past 15 years are all lies.
17:41And the figure outside is Johnny, her former student.
17:45Laura explains that a week after his death, he began haunting her nightmares.
17:49And soon, the entire town of Sweetville had the same terrifying dreams.
17:54The dream instructed them to rebuild the house, ensure one person always owned the land, and never alter it.
18:01Ownership was passed alphabetically by last name, and Julie Astor was first.
18:06Then she died, making Laura next.
18:08Tara asks how they can stop Johnny, but Laura admits she doesn't know.
18:13Regretfully, she says, if only I hadn't gone to that house with them.
18:18But when I saw you through the window, I had to act.
18:21Tara asks what she means, and Laura explains Johnny was bullied at school, and she urged the kids to include him in their games.
18:29But only Tara tried helping him.
18:31Fearing for her safety, Laura joined the village parents to eliminate the threat, and they killed Johnny.
18:37Suddenly, the woman appears at the window, startling them.
18:40She enters the cabin, stabbing Laura and then George when he tries to stop her.
18:45She then warns Tara not to move, saying she knows Johnny won't hurt her, because she's like her.
18:51When Tara asks who she is, the woman introduces herself as Olive, Johnny's sister.
18:56She explains that she was locked in the basement, forgotten by their parents.
19:00But Johnny would sneak down to feed her.
19:03She hated seeing him upset, and couldn't save him that day.
19:06Now, Johnny's soul roams the Sweetville woods, haunting the dreams of those who destroyed his life until they restore his home.
19:14She says, Johnny lives inside the fog, rolling in from the lake, and all they ever wanted to do was to play.
19:21What they were never allowed when they were kids.
19:24Dillon lunges at her, but she overpowers him, knocking him down.
19:28She tells him he's cute, and that she'll have fun with him once he's dead.
19:31But before she can act, Tara douses her in gasoline, forcing her to retreat.
19:36Dillon and Tara manage to escape the house with Laura, but Olive chases after them and grabs Tara, attempting to strangle her while saying Johnny loves you.
19:45Dillon pulls a lighter from his pocket and calls out to Olive.
19:48Tara pushes her aside, and Dillon says, this is for my mother, before lighting the lighter and throwing it at her.
19:54Olive bursts into fire, and she screams in agony before she dies.
19:59However, Popeye grabs Laura, and Tara watches helplessly as he strangles her mother while screaming Tara's name.
20:06Afterward, Popeye releases Laura and throws the anchor at Dillon, knocking him down.
20:11He then lunges at him, throwing punches at Dillon's face.
20:15Meanwhile, Tara starts the lawnmower, distracting Johnny, who gets up and begins to move toward her.
20:21But then he notices the anchor chain is tied around his leg, and Dillon seizes the opportunity, picking up the anchor and throwing it into the lake, dragging Popeye along with it.
20:31Popeye desperately grabs at the grass, but Tara drives the lawnmower over him, crushing his hands into the blades and finally killing him.
20:39As Dillon and Tara are leaving, Tara throws the keys to the house into the lake.
20:44However, to their horror, the keys fall right back in front of them.
20:48Suddenly, Popeye attacks Tara, and the movie ends here.
20:51And the movie ends here.
