Demonoid: Messenger of Death

---

1

What a beautiful city Guanajuato is.

My husbands told me a lot about it.

He probably missed you very much.

He's sorry he couldn't pick you up

at the airport, but, uh...

he couldn't leave the mine.

Mines are very jealous.

Like most females.

Is a mine a female, Pepe?

Yes. No matter how hard you try,

a mine won't surrender.

If you're not lucky.

Come on, Pepe.

Let's go to the mine right away.

Well...

Here you are, at your mine.

Good.

I'm going to look for my husband.

Jen!

Are you alright?

Look at their faces.

They're scared to death of a corpse.

Mr. Baines.

Pepe, what is it?

Look.

Silver.

I knew it!

If he found it, we can find it!

I know it, I know it!

Then he died.

Nobody can take silver out of La Quemada.

Dammit, you don't believe

that crap, do ya?

No left hand. Somebody stole his hand.

What does that mean?

It's nothing. Superstition. It's nothing.

Come on, let's get out of here.

The mummies I wanna watch 'em.

Mexico is a crude hill.

Which kind of blows the theory of die

young and have a beautiful corpse.

Poor things.

Do you see that they

don't have any left hands?

That's just like our mummy.

La mano del diablo.

The devil's hand.

They say it first came out of hell

from La Quemada.

It's a legend, but for our elders,

this was their truth.

How about the truth of today?

Today our fantasies

are much more sophisticated.

Yes, like, uh...

dreaming of oil.

All right. Okay.

What are these?

It's, uh, candy made in the shape

of mummies. That's what they are.

- They're, um, mummy yummies.

- Oh, how macabre.

Yeah. But do you want one?

- We have problems.

- What's the matter?

They're not gonna work, and they're

not gonna let anyone else work.

So you better get outta here, quick.

I've got an idea.

We're gonna go down into the mine.

You and I. We're gonna

go down into the lowest level.

If they see a woman going down there

and coming back safely,

how can they refuse?

Come on.

Besides, you and I can be alone.

Come on.

I think I'm going to have to...

to hold on here.

This is really steep.

How deep is this?

- Deep.

- Yeah?

Oh, God... They've been digging

this mine for over 300 years.

Listen to this.

Probably go on for half an hour.

You think, you think maybe they're, uh...

right about that legend?

God, I hope they're not.

It's funny. You know,

Pepe never brought me down here.

This must be it.

This is what they're afraid of.

This is a torture chamber.

Wow. Look at this.

Must be... hundreds of years old.

What are you collecting those?

Oh, let's go back. Listen,

I'm getting scared.

It's all right.

Now wait just a few minutes.

I wanna see what's down here.

It's all right.

Take it easy. Now just... get something.

Get, get a board or something. I'm...

I can't get outta here.

Get a board!

Hurry up!

Oh!

Hurry up!

Oh, Mark!

Jenny!

Where are you?

I'm in some kind of a... chamber.

How can I get down?

There's a ladder over here. I'll use that.

Okay.

See it?

Yes.

Come on down.

Okay.

I'm gonna slide the last bit.

Oh.

Darling, you're all right.

Look at that.

Look at that!

Oh. Incredible.

This place is incredible.

What's that?

It's oil.

Get some light here.

What do you think this is?

I think it's a cultist temple

for devil worshipers.

Well...

Little babies.

I mean these gotta be rank.

This statue is missing a hand too.

Let's get out of here.

Oh, God, this place is really creepy.

Look at this, darling.

Oh, I shouldn't touch it.

Why not?

Prove we've been down here.

To show these guys

there's nothing to be afraid of.

Well, if this mine is cursed,

here's their demon.

Right.

Devil!

We have broken your curse!

Well, now the miners

will have to come back to work.

Vamonos.

Here! Here's your devil's hand!

Pepe, tell them they can go back to work!

Nothing to be afraid of.

Nothing to be afraid of!

Whats the matter with you? Huh?

What's the matter?

All right, then!

Go away!

I'll get someone else to work this mine!

Don't give up.

Do you know what I've done?

Do you realize all the money I borrowed?

I feel like some fool.

Takes all his grandmother's money,

and goes to Las Vegas and loses it all.

Then blows his brains out.

It's going to be all right.

Look, I have a surprise.

Some champagne.

For us.

Your eyes.

You're beautiful.

Mark!

Oh, God!

Must've been a nightmare or something.

That wasn't a nightmare.

Just a dream, that's all.

That hand grabbed you.

Let me see your hand.

Get that thing away from me.

Show me your hand.

Take that thing away from me.

What's wrong?

Stay away from me.

Mark.

Oh, my God.

Pepe, is my husband here?

Yes, he's here.

He took the men into the mine.

You mean, they went back into the mine?

Si, seora. He's crazy.

He pushed them to go down there.

Mark!

Please, don't do this!

No, Mark! Don't!

You outta have great luck now, big man.

Look what just stand

along side of you here.

Lady luck?

Lady luck.

Lucky seven.

Give me five grand on a pass.

Woah, we got a big better here.

What do ya say? What do ya say?

How about the hard low?

Hey! That's what I'm lookin' for.

Let that ride.

Let it ride.

- Hello.

- Yes, madam?

My name is Mrs. Mark Baines,

and I wondered if you've seen this man.

Mm. Another Mrs. Mark Baines.

If you knew how many Mrs. Baines

have been in this hotel today,

you'd lie down on the floor

and laugh yourself silly.
