There is a sacred place
in the deep swamp...
where the mangrove trees
grow close together...
and the rays of the sun
are never seen.
My people call this place
The Dark Water.
the spirit of the swamp lives.
with life and beauty...
but evil men have changed that...
with their drills...
their pipes...
greed...
and murder.
a warning.
A time of retribution is here.
- Wait!
- Hey!
Wait!
Come on.
Not here, Billy.
Wait!
Sarah!
Stop!
- I mean it, Sarah, stop!
- Come on, Billy.
I don't want to.
Come on back to the fire.
This swamp's dangerous.
You're out of your goddamn mind.
You've heard the stories
about this place.
Hey, people disappear down here
all the time, girl.
Why you being so crazy?
- Afraid of the dark, Billy-boy?
- No...
- but this place has bad Mojo.
- 'Fraidy-cat.
Oh shit!
- You still afraid, Billy-boy?
- We shouldn't be out here.
Holy shit.
You seem like a virgin, Billy.
I ain't no fucking virgin.
- Oh my God!
- You liked that, baby?
That's good.
Oh my God!
So... you're taking me
the scenic route, huh?
What're you doing here, boy?
Start a new life.
Looking for peace and quiet
you know?
You city boys sure are funny.
Why do they call it
Bywater?
Because it's by the water.
No ma'am, I can't.
I'm sorry,
but I have to stay put.
I don't know where your son is.
- I got to get out of this town.
- Why would you leave Paradise?
- You scared the shit out of me.
- Sorry.
I'm Kyle Williams,
the new sheriff.
- You must be Eric Fraser.
- Yeah, Fraser'll do.
- What?
- No offence, but...
well, I just expected someone
more...
more experienced.
- I mean, considering...
- Considering what?
See Sheriff Corely, he...
well...
he kind of went insane
before he disappeared.
Lots of missing persons
for a small town.
I guess they didn't fill you in
all the way.
Ted Sallis...
was the first one to disappear.
Corely thought
Sallis put a curse on By water.
- I can take all this down.
- No.
Leave it.
- So, what do you think?
- I don't know.
'Gator attacks.
Murder, possibly.
Another disappeared last night.
Local boy.
- Billy James.
- Jesus.
- Who's Rene Laroque?
- A local troublemaker.
Corely thought he was
involved with Sallis.
Called him a shape shifter.
- But we could never catch him.
- Why can't you?
Why can't we catch him?
Hell, you ain't been
in that swamp before? Well...
Deputy Fraser.
Oh hey Val.
It's the coroner.
Wh-what?
Oh my God!
Is that Billy?
Yeah.
That's Billy.
Fraser, you go wait outside.
Yeah, okay.
Cause of death?
around here is a gator.
The girl who was with him
might have seen what happened.
She's down at the hospital.
Is this normal?
This green stuff?
Sheriff, this body has been in
the swamp. You understand?
Yeah. For one night.
Mr. Schist called,
a disturbance at the oil site.
You go.
I'll stick with this.
Said he wants you to see
what he's up against.
Okay.
I want a full autopsy.
You got it.
I appreciate your right
to free assembly...
but this here
is private property.
Now, we can cut you out
one by one...
or you can tell me
where the key is to that chain.
This is not a goddamn park
this is a worksite.
Surely, you've got a home
to go to.
I've been real patient with you.
- You're all trespassing.
- You listen to the man!
I'm giving you one last chance...
to disperse!
Or I'll drag you out
by that chain!
Fraser, I'm real glad
you're here.
- I want all these folk arrested.
