The movie starts with 4 teenage boys Caleb Danvers,
Pogue Parry, Reid Garwin and Tyler Simms standing at the edge of a cliff.
They talk about a party that is happening at the bottom as they are looking down from the cliff.
The blonde Reid says it’s time to join the party and his eyes swirl yellow,
then turn black, as he jumps off the cliff. The rest of the teenagers jump off the cliff as well.
Who are these young men with such magic powers? This is Movie Shortens. Follow us today to a 2006
American supernatural horror film called: The Covenant 2006. Be aware: there are spoilers!
Surrounding the bonfire, two friends Kate and Sarah start talking about the people there at
the party. As the 4 schoolboys approach, Kate describes them to Sarah as the Sons
of Ipswich. Kate introduces Sarah as her new roommate to the 4 teenagers.
Moments later, someone says over the loudspeaker that cops are on their way. Everyone scrambles
and starts running away from the party. The group of students head into the woods.
The 4 teenagers get in one car while the other two girls get in Sarah’s car along with Chase,
a new student. Sarah’s car won’t start, so Reid offers to fix it. His eyes again turn
yellow for an instant and he uses his powers to fix Sarah’s car, which she then immediately
starts. Sarah drives off with Kate and Chase. A police car starts pursuing the 4 teenagers
inside a Hummer. The police are chasing them at high speed and they make it out of the woods;
now they are driving very fast in an open field that is quite foggy and gloomy.
Reid asks everyone in the car if they’re ready to do it. The cops are scared because they think the
boys “don’t know” something. All four boys’ eyes turn black. There’s a big chasm up ahead of them.
Reid accelerates and the car flies across the chasm and the car vanishes in the fog.
All of a sudden the Hummer falls from the sky right behind the police car. The cops
are dumbfounded and confused trying to figure out what just happened as the boys get away.
That night, as Caleb walks into his house, he hears his mother calling him. She starts talking
about Caleb’s father and says that she doesn’t want to lose Caleb like she lost his father.
Caleb’s mother warns him that the powers he got when he was 13 will be 1000 times stronger after
his 18th birthday. She mentions the powers are too seductive and once he starts using them,
he won’t be able to stop; he will age faster, taking bits of his life every time he uses his
power until there’s nothing left. She doesn’t want what happened to his father to happen to him.
Back at the dorms, Sarah asks why Kate called the boys the Sons of Ipswich.
Kate explains that they’re descendants from the five families who settled
the Ipswich colony in the 1600s. Sarah asks about the fifth Ipswich
family and Kate says that during the witch-hunts, that family was killed.
The following day, Caleb is driving and talking on the phone with Pogue.
Caleb glances at the passenger seat and gets frightened by the ghost of a dead student.
In a split second Caleb looks back to the road and notices he had swerved into the left lane
where a giant truck was heading straight to him. The truck crashes head-on with Caleb’s Mustang
which explodes into hundreds of car parts flying around past the truck and the car debris comes
back together and the car rebuilds itself in an instant with Caleb inside the car. Caleb picks
the phone up to tell Pogue that he just saw a “darkling” in the form of the dead student.
Later that day, Caleb stops by the pharmacy to pick up some medication.
Caleb runs into Kate Sarah and Chase. Caleb says he has to run errands for his mother and invites
Sarah to go with him and she accepts with a smile on her face. They drive by Putnam’s barn,
and Caleb says that the area was where the original Ipswich colony was established.
Eventually they pull up in front of a huge old house that Caleb says was their family’s
first colony house. Caleb leaves Sarah in the car while he goes into the house.
Once inside the house, Caleb drops off the medication on a table. and asks if “He” (not
Gorman) needs anything else, and Gorman says no. There is someone sitting on the armchair
and then the camera focuses on the hands of what seems to be a person, however the fingers look
extremely old, wrinkly and damaged. That evening, everyone goes to a bar.
Sarah asks Kate to give her a quarter and she goes to the jukebox to play Joan Jett’s “I Love
Rock and Roll.” Everyone starts dancing and singing. Kate grabs Caleb by the arm
and starts dancing very seductively and close to each other. Meanwhile, Aaron, a pompous student,
starts a fight with Reid and Tyler on the other side of the bar. They walk out of the bar to
fight. Reid and Aaron are fighting over a bet they made. The bar manager opens the backdoor holding
a bat in his hand and tells them to break it off and prevent a fight. Aaron and his friend leave.
Caleb confronts Reid about using his powers in front of people and they have an argument that
turns into a fight. They start attacking each other using their superpowers.
Caleb is noticeably a lot stronger than Reid and wins the fight. Pogue has to intervene to
hold Caleb back from hurting Reid even more. After they leave the bar, Caleb gives Sarah
a ride back to the dorms and before she steps out of his car she kisses Caleb.
During her sleep, Sarah has a terrifying nightmare where her room is full of spiders.
The following day, Sarah is at the library reading some books about Paganism and witches.
Kate disrupts Sarah, who states she’s reading about Caleb’s family history
and asks Kate if she knew that the witch-hunting started in Ipswich,
but Kate doesn’t know much about it. It is a rainy night and Caleb and Sarah
are in Caleb’s car. Caleb asks Sarah to go with him to the Fall Fest that Saturday,
which also happens to be his birthday. They start having fun passionately.
The next morning during swimming practice, Caleb and Chase have a swimming race. At the end of the
race Chase’s eyes turn yellow then black showing he also has powers and he uses his powers to make
Caleb crash his head onto the wall. Caleb loses consciousness and opens his eyes to see his
friends staring down on him telling him that Chase saved him from drowning after he hit his head.
After the pool incident, Caleb starts suspecting Chase.
Caleb and Pogue break into the admissions office and are investigating Chase’s profile. Caleb found
out Chase’s parents died on his 18th birthday. Sarah goes to visit Kate who is in the hospital.
The Doctor tells Sarah he believes Kate was bitten by hundreds of spiders.
After leaving the admission’s office Caleb, Pogue, Tyler and Reid meet in an underground chamber.
Caleb uses his powers to take The Book of Damnation from a shelf. The book contains the
names of all the people who brought witch-charges against John Putman. Caleb tells the others that
Goody Pope was one of Putnam’s accusers and that Putman came to her in her dreams as an incubus
after her husband died. As a result of this dream, she had a child and they realize that Putnam’s
family line didn’t die with him and that Chase is his son, he is the Fifth Son of Ipswich.
Sarah calls Caleb and tells him that Kate is in the hospital and she was bitten by
hundreds of spiders. Then Caleb tells the group that Chase put a spell of Creation on Kate.
Pogue storms out of the room furious and in pursuit of Chase. Pogue is riding his
motorbike very fast when he sees Chase in the middle of the road. He accelerates his
bike to try to run him over, but Chase uses his power to bring Pogue down. They have a
discussion and then Chase beats Pogue down. That evening Chase goes to Sarah’s dorm. Caleb
arrives there later and notices Chase has put a spell on Sarah who is unconscious on her bed.
Chase wants Caleb’s soon-to-be powers after he ascends on his 18th birthday. Chase says if Caleb
gives him his power he won’t kill Sarah, his mother and his friends Pogue, Reid and Tyler.
Chase orders Caleb to meet him at Putnam’s barn the following night, at the moment when Caleb
will ascend and to give Chase his power. Shortly after they start fighting using their powers,
but Chase is too powerful. Chase thinks that adding Caleb’s power to his own will fix the
ageing problem, but Caleb tells him it doesn’t work like that; it’s the body that wears down,
not the power. Caleb loses the fight but asks Chase to leave Sarah alone and to stop the spell,
and Caleb removes the spell from Sarah. Caleb takes Sarah to meet his father, William
Danvers the Third. He’s only 44 years old, but he looks extremely old because he used too much
power and it consumed his body. Caleb tells Sarah everything about The Power and the Covenant.
Caleb tells Reid and Tyler to take Sarah to the dance and keep an eye on her. Chase is observing
them from the top of a building when he spots Sarah walking across the lawn. Chase drops down
from the top of a building and snatches her. Caleb is driving to the barn, and calls Reid,
who tells him that Sarah is gone. Out of nowhere, Chase jumps onto the hood of Caleb’s car and
attacks him. Caleb gets out of the car and runs through the rain to the old Putnam barn,
which is full of rusty hanging farm equipment. Chase says he doesn’t think Caleb is going to
hold up his end of the bargain, so he took out an insurance policy, Sarah,
who is floating unconscious at the far end of the barn. Both start fighting in the barn by
using their powers to throw stuff at each other. Caleb starts his ascension and his body starts
glowing as he receives “The Power.” Chase has the upper hand in the fight because he is stronger.
At the barn, Chase tells Caleb to just say the words: I will you my power” but Caleb
disagrees with him and they continue fighting. Caleb’s mom arrives at the old colony house to
talk Caleb’s dad into willing Caleb his power. Caleb’s Dad says the Words “I will you my power”
and back at the barn, lightning flashes, and Caleb receives his dad’s power making him stronger.
Chase throws an energy ball at Caleb, but he is stronger now, he catches the energy ball and then
throws it back at Chase. The power hits Chase and passes through his body. Chase flies backwards,
following the fiery energy ball, which explodes against the barn and Chase's body disappears.
Caleb goes back into the burning barn to save Sarah who is unconscious. Caleb takes Sarah out
of the burning barn. Meanwhile, at the hospital Kate and Pogue both regain consciousness.
Next morning Caleb and Sarah are still at the barn, along with the firefighters and their
fire trucks. One of the firefighters comes up to tell them that they searched the area
and didn’t find anybody else. Sarah wonders how that can be; Caleb says he doesn’t know.
Caleb waits for the firefighter to pass by, then uses his power to fix the windshield of his car
and then he and Sarah drive off into the sunrise.
