Quotes5

  • [looking in what was Eddie Quist's morgue locker]
  • Chris: He's not here!
  • Morgue Attendant: He was here this morning!
  • Terry Fisher: [noticing the damage on the inside of the locker door] Look at the door!
  • Chris: You think somebody took him?
  • Morgue Attendant: Well, he didn't just get up and walk away!
  • Bookstore owner: We get 'em all, sun worshipers, moon worshippers, Satanists. The Mansin people used to hang around here and shoplift. Bunch of deadbeats.
  • Chris: Do you know of any groups that are into stealing corpses?
  • Bookstore owner: Body snatching? No. If you want to read about it, I got a book for you. Slide me down. Ho. That's it. You name it, I got the book.
  • Terry Fisher: A number of young women were killed in the next month, their bodies exhibiting signs of animal attack.
  • Chris: What's that?
  • Terry Fisher: [reading the cover of the book] Warlocks, Werewolves, and Demons.
  • Bookstore owner: [to a customer] Please, you're going to purchase, purchase. If not, leave 'em alone. You'll get 'em greasy.
  • Chris: We'll find out if any of Eddie's killings were on a full moon.
  • Bookstore owner: Hey, that's a lot of Hollywood baloney. Your classic werewolf could change shape anytime it wants, day or night, whenever it takes a notion to. That's why they call 'em shape-shifters. I got a dozen books on it.
  • Terry Fisher: What about killing it with silver bullets?
  • Bookstore owner: Oh, sure, silver bullets or fire. It's the only way to get rid of the damn things. They're worse than cockroaches. They come back from the dead if you don't kill 'em right. Plus, they regenerate. You know what that is? Cut off an arm, cut off a leg, stick a knife in their heart, nothing. They may look dead, but, bam, three days later, they're as good as new.
  • Chris: You believe in this?
  • Bookstore owner: What am I, an idiot? I'm making a buck here. You want books, I got books. I got chicken blood. I got dog embryos. I got black candles. I got wolfsbane. Look at this, silver bullets. Some joker ordered them, .30-06. Never picked 'em up. I take BankAmericard, American Express, Visa. You going to buy that or what?
  • Chris: Yeah, these two.
  • Terry Fisher: Oh, there's some incredible old pictures in this book.
  • Bookstore owner: That's a good book.
  • Terry Fisher: According to the autopsy reports, Eddie's victims were bitten, almost as if they had been attacked by an animal. Doctor, what can you tell me about lycanthropy?
  • Dr. George Waggner: Where did you learn that term?
  • Terry Fisher: On the late, late show.
  • Dr. George Waggner: Oh. Well, it's a mental disorder. There are dozens of cases, people who like to walk about on all fours, to make bestial groans and sighs. They prefer to eat raw meat.
  • Terry Fisher: That's certainly seems like an awfully big coincidence, Karen being attacked by someone with this kind of delusion.
  • Morgue Attendant: Tattoo, huh? I don't remember one on him when he came in.
  • Chris: Yeah, well the coroner, the coroner said that he had one on his shoulder, some kind of animal head right there.
  • Morgue Attendant: No. Don't get many of you TV people in here. Mostly it's your newspaper guys like to come in, look at the meat.
  • Terry Fisher: I don't know how you can stand it.
  • Morgue Attendant: Ah, doesn't bother me.
  • [to his assistant]
  • Morgue Attendant: Want to unwrap him, Ross? Let's see. Quist he's still with the John Does. We haven't had time to refile him. Only thing that freaked me out since I been working here is the night old Stu Walker came in, a guy who worked here, right? I say good night to him at the shift change. Couple hours go by. Then we get a delivery from the ocean side unit. I unzip the bag. There's old Stu smiling up at me, leaking seawater out his ears.
  • [Knocking on the mortuary door]
  • Morgue Attendant: Visitors, Eddie!
  • [They open the door and it's empty]
  • Chris: Where is he?
  • Morgue Attendant: He was here this morning.
  • [the inside of the door is all damaged]
  • Terry Fisher: God, look at the door.
  • Chris: Don't suppose somebody could have stolen him, do you?
  • Morgue Attendant: Well, he didn't get up and walk out on his own.
  • Karen White: Hello, good friend.
  • Terry Fisher: Hello.
  • Karen White: How are you?
  • Terry Fisher: You okay?
  • Karen White: Anyway, I don't know what her last name is. Donna call her Marsha the Man-Eater.
  • Terry Fisher: Really?
  • Karen White: And she lives in this shack with these furry little animals hanging from the rafters.
  • Terry Fisher: And you think she's trying to make the move on Bill?
  • Karen White: Oh, I don't know. It's just a feeling. I sound paranoid, don't I?
  • Terry Fisher: Karen, you sound fine. Oh, God, no veggies. I totally forgot.
  • Karen White: Hmm?
  • Terry Fisher: About Bill and his dinner. Bill, Bill, hey, I'm really sorry. I totally forgot about you not eating meat.
  • R. William 'Bill' Neill: Hey, no sweat. It's terrific. No, really. I get hungry enough, I'll eat anything.
