The Radish Man -- TAPE 33

Through a series of chilling recordings, police reports, and lost audio logs -- sent anonymously to an Investigative Reporter -- "The Radish Man" unfolds as a found-footage horror mystery, documenting one man’s descent into madness as he fights to save his family from an unstoppable terror. But the deeper he digs, the more the truth becomes clear: no one escapes The Radish Man. No one ever has.

Transcript

SPEAKER_01 0:40

I heard the door open and no one was there. But I I heard a car tear off down the line. And then they left something. Oh, yeah. Inside there's a top drive. Attached to a toe device. So like when you find a body.

SPEAKER_00 1:36

Lotion detected. Recording in progress.

SPEAKER_05 1:41

Frank, you can't go down there. You know it's against protocol.

SPEAKER_02 1:44

It's gone on long enough, Linda. I can reach the tunnels through the well. It'll take me a better part of the day, but I can track it. I can end this.

SPEAKER_05 1:54

Frank.

SPEAKER_04 2:00

Frank, you're looking well. What's it been? Ten, fifteen years. Hello, Rafael. Looks like you're going somewhere. I'm thinking about doing something stupid as hope.

SPEAKER_02 2:16

Two black cubies in the middle of the suburbs, screeching into a driveway with men and suits. Doesn't exactly scream discretion, doesn't it?

SPEAKER_04 2:25

I just want to catch you guys before the higher found your little extracurriculars distasteful. The child was taken, Rafferty. These things happen.

SPEAKER_05 2:33

Maybe the kid shouldn't have been wondering where you're just a child, and it wasn't just him, his parents, too. Their health burned down. Their entire lives are nothing but ash now. On our watch. Because of this, uh Helena.

SPEAKER_03 2:49

Always the Spitfire. The father of Mark Adler. He saw it, Rafferty. The red man in the dirt. And he fought like hell. And now his family pays for it, Gabriel.

SPEAKER_05 3:00

His name is Frank. Here, his name is Frank. And I'm Linda. We're the Myers, and protocol is.

SPEAKER_04 3:10

Your watch dogs now. Nothing more. You think killing a hundred of those things earned you something? You stay put. You smile for the neighbors. Make a pie, host a party, have an affair. I don't give a shit. But you report. That's your mission now. You're not in the field. You're on the bench. Mark Saddler might still be alive. He most certainly is. And you'll never know for sure. Give us 48 hours. We'll find it. We can end this. And if I do, what then? We kill it, make it 101? Survive. What do we do when they talk?

SPEAKER_05 3:53

They won't.

SPEAKER_04 3:54

You certain? People talk all the time.

SPEAKER_05 3:56

Mark Medler went through hell to try and save them. He figured out what it was. He knew its name, Rafferty. If silences the cost, he'll carry it to the grave. So will they.

SPEAKER_04 4:07

Now where's the risk? Interesting color choice on the shutters. Oh, and I'm leaving Alexander with you. Just to keep things honest. And do me a favor and do yours.

unknown 4:43

War. We're going to war.

SPEAKER_01 4:54

What the hell? What the actual hell? Who the hell are Frank and Linda Myers?
