Quotes17

  • Anna: What if my party guests show up?
  • Clark: Anna, I don't know if you know this, but there is some seriously insane shit going on out there right now. People are losing their minds.
  • [Clark goes to turn off the TV]
  • Clark: There's a bad sector in the electromagnetic spectrum which is causing a rift in logical thinking. Rational behavior has given way to primal... primordial action.
  • [Anna sees someone on fire outside]
  • Clark: We've reached a critical juncture in the consistency of everyday living. Societal norms are being completely abandoned. Anarchy has replaced etiquette. Chaos is the ruling class of this civilization, so I think coming to a goddamn New Years Eve party is the last thing on people's minds!
  • [doorbell rings]
  • Clark: Anna, I need a couple of things that Ken borrowed, namely my hatchet... and some garbage bags.
  • Lewis Denton: The TV must've gotten into his head and told him to kill you.
  • Anna: Yeah, that's what happened to Ken. He was watching TV and it made him go bad.
  • [two people run from a man chasing them with a chainsaw in the background]
  • Clark: This is without a doubt the most fucked up day in the history of mankind. We should go back inside.
  • Anna: [cheerful] Who wants cocktails?
  • [doorbell rings]
  • Clark: God in heaven!
  • Lewis Denton: [grabbing a shovel] Just open the door and I'll take them down.
  • Clark: No. That's not the way to play this.
  • Lewis Denton: We can't be sure. We have to exterminate with extreme prejudice.
  • Clark: It might be somebody who could help us. We don't know.
  • [doorbell rings again]
  • Lewis Denton: We can't risk it. I'm killing whoever walks through that door.
  • Clark: [looking through the peephole] It's Jim. It's Jim Parsons.
  • Lewis Denton: Trust no one!
  • Clark: You were the one watching the TV!
  • Lewis Denton: I told you I wasn't watching the TV! Listen, if I had it, I would've killed you by now, right?
  • Clark: I guess.
  • Lewis Denton: I'm fine, and you're fine, and she's fine. This we know. But he may not be, and probably isn't.
  • Ben: Listen to me. The car, the one that's wrecked, the one's that outside. The girl inside of it... where did she go?
  • Clark: I told you already!
  • Ben: Not me, that wasn't me. We've got to find her.
  • Clark: I don't know. I don't know. Maybe he knows.
  • [Clark points towards a decapitated head on the floor]
  • Clark: He was with her!
  • Ben: Man, he's not gonna be able to talk to us!
  • Anna: Are you mad at me for killing your friend?
  • Clark: What?
  • Anna: I know he's your friend and all.
  • Clark: We weren't that close.
  • Lewis Denton: What do you have here?
  • Clark: [nervously] Ken... napping.
  • Lewis Denton: He looks dead.
  • Anna: He is.
  • Lewis Denton: I see.
  • Clark: It was self defense.
  • Anna: You chopped his head off!
  • Lewis Denton: He had it coming... probably. These are wild times. Everybody's been driven to desperate measures. I guess this happens to everybody.
  • Anna: Clark killed somebody too.
  • Clark: I did not... I did.
  • [doorbell rings]
  • Anna: [cheerful] Party guests!
  • Clark: [holding bloody shovel] Act natural.
  • Clark: This is getting to be ridiculous!
  • Jim Parsons: Are Ken and Anna around?
  • Clark: Anna's, uh, getting ready. And Ken is just lying down for... a second.
  • Lewis Denton: He's dead tired.
  • [Clark nervously laughs]
  • Rod: The fuck you want?
  • Clark: Can you hear me?
  • Rod: Got a smoke?
  • Clark: I don't smoke.
  • Ben: Ask him about the girl.
  • Rod: You want to know about the girl, give me a c-c-cigarette.
  • Clark: He wants a cigarette.
  • Ben: What? You're kidding me? You got to be fucking kidding me.
  • Ben: Listen to me. Do you hear that? Listen. It's past the noise in your head. That is the natural world. That has been here a long time before us. It's going to be here a long time after we're gone. That is real. And that is what we focus on.
  • Clark: Past the noise...
  • Ben: Yeah.
  • Clark: [laughing] This calls for a radical reassessment of all the facts.
  • Lewis Denton: What do you have here?
  • Clark: [whimper] it's Ken... napping.
  • Lewis Denton: He looks dead.
  • Anna: He is.
  • Lewis Denton: I see. Who did this?
  • Anna: I did. I didn't want to!
  • Lewis Denton: You killed him?
  • Anna: Well, Clark killed somebody too!
  • Clark: I did no- I did... but it was self-defense!
  • [cut to Clark's apartment with the three looking down at Rod's dead body]
  • Anna: You chopped his head off!
  • Lewis Denton: He had it coming... probably. These are wild times.
  • Anna: [doorbell rings] Party guests!
  • Clark: Act natural.
  • [Anna and Lewis line up behind Clark at the door with weapons ready]
  • Laura: You gotta help me! My mom is trying to kill me and so I ran over her in the car and my dad was in the house and he made the dog die because he tried to bite me and I left in the car and I didn't know where to go and I remembered that Anna and Ken lived here and I'm Laura.
  • Anna: Laura!
  • Laura: Anna!
  • [Laura pushes her way into the apartment past Clark]
  • Clark: [Lewis smacks Laura in the head with the pesticide can, knocking her down] What the Fuck?
  • [Lewis continues to beat Laura to death]
  • Anna: You killed Laura!
  • Lewis Denton: She was coming at you!
  • Anna: Stay away from me! You killed Laura!
  • Lewis Denton: She was heading straight for you with that knife!
  • Anna: She doesn't have a knife!
  • Clark: That's a keychain...
  • Anna: [doorbell rings] Party guests!
  • Clark: Act natural.
  • [Anna and Lewis line up behind Clark at the door with weapons ready]
  • Janice: You gotta help me! My mom is trying to kill me and so I ran over her in the car and my dad was in the house and he made the dog die because he tried to bite me and I left in the car and I didn't know where to go and I remembered that Anna and Ken lived here and I'm Laura.
  • Anna: Laura!
  • Janice: Anna!
  • [Laura pushes her way into the apartment past Clark]
  • Clark: [Lewis smacks Laura in the head with the pesticide can, knocking her down] What the Fuck?
  • [Lewis continues to beat Laura to death]
  • Anna: You killed Laura!
  • Lewis Denton: She was coming at you!
  • Anna: Stay away from me! You killed Laura!
  • Lewis Denton: She was heading straight for you with that knife!
  • Anna: She doesn't have a knife!
  • Clark: That's a keychain...
