Quotes17

  • Uncle Red: Where's your Mom?
  • Marty Coslaw: She and Dad are out back lighting the barbeque, yeah, and Jane's walking around in all these new clothes showing off her tits, acting like no one ever had tits before her.
  • Uncle Red: So let me get this straight. This dude killed your best friend, drove your best girl out of town, and made them cancel the fireworks. Am I lying?
  • Marty Coslaw: Nope, you're not lying, Uncle Red.
  • Uncle Red: Well, I got something in here that just might cheer you up.
  • [gestures to the garage]
  • Marty Coslaw: [look of surprise] Oh, I can see it?
  • Uncle Red: You wanna know what I think?
  • Marty Coslaw: No, we just called you out here to admire your pretty little face.
  • Uncle Red: You better watch your mouth, right now. You're on thin ice with me, son.
  • [Marty rides up to his friends Brady and Tammy at the end of school]
  • Brady Kincaid: Hey, it's Madman Marty on the Silver Bullet! So, Marty, glad to be out of jail?
  • Marty Coslaw: No. I like school.
  • Tammy Sturmfuller: Booger!
  • [Brady drops a garter snake from a tree above, getting Jane to fall into a puddle of mud]
  • Brady Kincaid: Look alive!
  • Brady Kincaid: [Marty covers his face as Brady continues to laugh at Jane] Hey, Jane! Did you wet your pants?
  • Marty Coslaw: Jane, I'm sorry.
  • Jane Coslaw: Oh, yeah, sure!
  • Marty Coslaw: I didn't mean to.
  • Jane Coslaw: Oh, no. You never mean to! I hate you, you booger!
  • Marty Coslaw: You know who used to have a baseball bat like that? Mr. Knopfler.
  • Uncle Red: So?
  • Jane Coslaw: It looked like Bigfoot had used it for a toothpick!
  • Jane Coslaw: Marty, are you okay?
  • Marty Coslaw: All except my legs.
  • Jane Coslaw: What about them?
  • Marty Coslaw: [turns to her] I don't think I can walk.
  • Jane Coslaw: In the made-up stories, the guy who's the werewolf only changes when the moon is full, but maybe he's like this almost all the time, only as the moon gets fuller...
  • Marty Coslaw: ...the guy gets wolfier.
  • Uncle Red: Guess they better get that guy.
  • Marty Coslaw: Uncle Red?
  • Uncle Red: Yo.
  • Marty Coslaw: What if it's not a guy?
  • Uncle Red: What do you mean?
  • Marty Coslaw: Well, what if it's some kind of monster?
  • Uncle Red: [laughs] Yeah. What if it's some kind of monster?
  • Marty Coslaw: You know, like a werewolf or something.
  • Uncle Red: [laughs] That's a good one. Yeah.
  • [They arrive at the house]
  • Uncle Red: Here we go.
  • Marty Coslaw: You know, Tammy told me she'd been hearing noises in the greenhouse. Growling noises. Her father was killed that night.
  • Uncle Red: Listen, Marty, you have got to get this idea out of your head. Psychotics are more active when the moon is full. And this guy's a psycho. When they catch him, you're gonna find out he's just as human as you and me.
  • Marty Coslaw: [as they pull up to the fair] Aw man, they canceled the fireworks!
  • Jane Coslaw: Aww, look out world, Marty the Great didn't get something he wanted.
  • Uncle Red: Holy jumped up, bald-headed Jesus, palomina!
  • Jane Coslaw: Uncle Red!
  • Uncle Red: From him, I'd expect it. Sometimes I think your common sense got paralyzed along with your legs. But from you, Jane? You're Miss Polly Practical.
  • Jane Coslaw: You don't understand.
  • Uncle Red: I understand that my niece and my nephew are sending little love notes to the local minister, suggesting that he gargle with broken glass. Or eat a rat-poison omelet.
  • Marty Coslaw: It came for me. I shot it in the eye. Now he's wearing an eye patch.
  • Uncle Red: I wish I had a tape recorder so you could hear what you sound like.
  • Marty Coslaw: What about the baseball bat Jane saw in the shed?
  • Uncle Red: What about it?
  • Marty Coslaw: You know who used to have a baseball bat like that? Mr. Knopfler.
  • Uncle Red: So?
  • Jane Coslaw: It looked like Bigfoot had used it for a toothpick.
  • Uncle Red: You want to know what I think?
  • Marty Coslaw: No. We just called you out here to admire your pretty little face.
  • Uncle Red: You better watch your mouth right now. You're on thin ice with me, son. I think you had a hallucination. I think it was probably a broomstick or something.
  • Jane Coslaw: It was not! You want me to show it to you? Come on, I'm not afraid. I'll show it to you right now!
  • Uncle Red: No, no, no, no, no. I'm a little too old to be playing "The Hardy Boys meet Reverend Werewolf."
  • Marty Coslaw: Okay, forget it.
  • Uncle Red: Jesus. Yeah, forget it. Forget it. Werewolves.
  • Marty Coslaw: Probably have gotten rid of it by now, anyway.
  • Uncle Red: This is the dumbest thing I've ever heard. Just forget it! It's crazy!
  • [They're in a car outside Reverend Lowe's chapel]
  • Uncle Red: You see your suspect yet, Marty?
  • Marty Coslaw: Yes, I see him.
  • Uncle Red: Are you trying to tell me that a man who took a rocket in the eye three nights ago is out here painting a thermometer? He'd either be in the hospital or he would be dead!
  • Marty Coslaw: I didn't shoot him when he was a man. I shot him when he was...
  • Uncle Red: What, a werewolf? Oh, Jesus. Jane, you don't believe this madness, do you?
  • Jane Coslaw: I don't know exactly what I believe, but I know that what I saw was a baseball bat, and not a broomstick. And I know there was something strange about the way the garage smelt that day. It smelt like an animal's den. And I believe in Marty. You used to believe in him, too, Uncle Red.
  • Uncle Red: Kids.
  • [Marty goes into Jane's room thinking she's asleep, when she see's Marty putting money down on her lamp table for she can get new pantyhose that Brady dirtied]
  • Jane Coslaw: [Jane whispers in the dark] What's the money for?
  • Marty Coslaw: A new pair of pantyhose. Is it enough? Jane, please take the money. It was Brady's idea. Honest to God. I want to make up.
  • Jane Coslaw: [Jane turns on the light] I can get a pair of L'eggs down at the pharmacy for $1.49. Here.
  • [gives him back part of the money]
  • Marty Coslaw: [lights fireworks] This is for the good guys!
  • Jane Coslaw: [rides her bike up to the boys flying their kites] Get home, dinner was an hour ago!
  • Marty Coslaw: Oh, I forgot. Is she mad?
  • Jane Coslaw: Yeah, at *me* for not finding you sooner.
  • Marty Coslaw: Uncle Red, what if its not a guy? You know, what if it's a kind of monster like a werewolf or something? Tammy said she was hearing some kind of growling in the shed the night her father was killed.
  • Uncle Red: I tell you I'm gonna open up a reptile farm. Get me a road sign out. That would be some kind of barbecue! Here we go. Oh!
  • [Take out a bag from the trunk of his car to give to Marty]
  • Uncle Red: Now, I said I had something for you. As I believe you do recall.
  • Marty Coslaw: Yeah. What is it?
  • Uncle Red: You're gonna have 4th of July, but you're gonna have it in September.
  • [Takes fireworks out of the bag]
  • Uncle Red: Now, remember, it isn't just the fireworks. It's so no crazy shithead can stop the good guys. If you can dig that...
  • Marty Coslaw: Yeah, I can dig.
  • Uncle Red: Now, stay near the house.
  • Marty Coslaw: Yeah, sure.
  • Uncle Red: Okay.
  • [pulls had a rocket firework]
  • Uncle Red: Save this for last. It's a rocket. You'll like it.
  • Marty Coslaw: Thanks a million, Uncle Red.
  • Uncle Red: You're welcome a million, Marty. And stick 'em in the bushes for right now, okay?
  • Marty Coslaw: All right.
  • Uncle Red: Now, remember. Stay near the house, okay?
  • Marty Coslaw: Promise.
  • Uncle Red: Okay.
  • Marty Coslaw: All right.
  • Uncle Red: That's good. I want you to have a good time.
  • Marty Coslaw: Thanks a lot, Uncle Red.
  • Uncle Red: Watch out for the werewolf.
  • Marty Coslaw: Good-bye.
  • [Uncle Red howls as he drives off]
  • Uncle Red: [picks up phone] Oh, shit. Hello?
  • Marty Coslaw: Uncle Red, it's me, Marty. I saw the werewolf last night.
  • Uncle Red: Oh, Marty.
  • Marty Coslaw: I saw the werewolf!
  • Uncle Red: Hey, buddy you had a bad dream.
  • Marty Coslaw: It wasn't a dream, Uncle Red. I saw the werewolf with the firecracker. He was there!
  • Uncle Red: There are no such things as werewolves.
  • Marty Coslaw: There is. I saw it! Uncle Red, it was a werewolf!
  • Uncle Red: Have some pity on your poor uncle, okay?
  • Uncle Red: Uncle Red, I saw...
  • [Uncle Red hangs up]
  • Uncle Red's Girl: Jesus.
  • Uncle Red: What?
  • Uncle Red's Girl: Who was that?
  • Uncle Red: Obscene phone call.
  • Reverend Lowe: Marty. I'm very sorry about this, Marty. I don't know if you believe that or not, but it's true I would never willingly hurt a child.
  • Marty Coslaw: Please. I won't tell anyone.
  • Reverend Lowe: You should have let me alone, Marty. I can't kill myself. Our religion teaches that suicide is the greatest sin a man or a woman can commit. Stella was going to commit suicide, and if she had done so she would be burning in hell right now. By killing her, I took her physical life but I saved her life eternal. You see how all things serve the will and the mind of God? You see? You meddling little shit! You're gonna have a terrible accident, Marty. You're gonna fall in the river.
  • [a motor is heard Marty looks out and sees a farmer Mr Zinnerman and calls for help]
  • Marty Coslaw: Mr. Zinneman! Help me! Please, help me! Mr. Zinneman! Please! Mr. Zinneman, I'm in the bridge! Help me, please!
  • Elmer Zinneman: That you, Marty?
  • [Marty turns and sees that Reverend Lowe has driven off]
  • Elmer Zinneman: Spooky in there, isn't it?
