[bunniefuu]

[Man imitating Boris Karloff]

They are coming to get you, Barbara.

[ Woman ] Stop it!

They are coming.

[Sinister Laugh]

They don't like being awakened this way.

[Chuckles]

Why do you have to be so mean?

Hey, I'm your older brother.

Being mean and heartless

is part of my job.

[Laughing]

They're going

to get you, little sister.

Johnnie, now you're being silly

and I don't want to hear it.

Will you cut it out,

right now?

[ Barbara] You never know

when to stop, do you? Never!

[Johnnie Snickering]

What's the matter, Barbara?

You getting' scared?

You're still scared

of her, aren't you?

[Scoffs That's why

we're here, isn't it?

No, that's not

why we're here.

Tell me something', will ya?

Why do we have to put ourselves

through this... charade?

Because she is

our mother!

Can't you at least give her

one day out of your life?

One day? This is the fourth

time we've been up here...

in the three months

since she died.

I'm spending more time with her

now than when she was alive.

And you know why?

Don't start.

She couldn't possibly

be buried in the city.

No. That would

have been much too easy.

She knew I'd have to be

the one to drive you up here.

That's why she had herself buried 200

miles from the nearest glass of beer.

Johnnie, now we're here. Will

you just please stop it?

Stop what?

The truth?

She drove our father

to an early grave.

She drove

me away from home,

and she damned near drove you

into a convent. That's not true.

When's the last time you had a date?

That is none of your business!

The one thing

she never, ever drove...

was 200 miles

to visit anything.

Johnnie, please. Now, I need

you to stop talking like that.

Don't talk like that.

Not here.

What do you mean,

“not here”?

Not here. Not in the

middle of- Of what?

Show some respect.

Ha! You're afraid,

aren't you?

You really are afraid of this place.

God, you never stop!

[Sinister Laughing]

For the love of God,Johnnie.

b*stard!

Jesus, you're weird. Let's just

get through this, can we, please?

Just get it over with.

They're coming

to get you, Barbara.

[Car Door Slams]

- Barbara-

- For the love of God,Johnnie.

They're horny, Barbara.

They've been dead a long time.

Look! Look!

There's one of them now.

He wants you!

[Chuckles]

He's getting closer.

Dangerously closer! [

Laughing] Stop it john!

He's going to hear you!

It doesn't matter.

He knows we're here.

It's too late now.

There's no escape!

[Screams]

No, Mother!

- You b*stard.

- [ Chuckling]

[Grunts] [ Screams,

Gasps] Johnnie-

I'm sorry. Very sorry.

[Johnnie] Hey! I'm sorry.

Hey, man, are you okay?

Is there something

we can do to help?

[Sobbing]

This isn't your house?

[Sobs]

- You don't live here?

- [Whimpering]

Look. Talk to me, girl.

Do you have a car?

Huh?

Huh?

Do you have a car?

[ Babbling]

Yes. I- No. My brother-

[Stumbling Footsteps]

The windows. They're not strong

enough to break through the door,

but they can get through

the window glass.

- [ Gasps] - [Glass

Squeaking, Body Thudding]

[Gurgling]

[Grunts]

[Gurgling]

[Grunts]

[Gurgling Stops]

g*dd*mn you!

g*dd*mn all of you!

Truck's on empty.

We can't take the chance of running

dry out in the middle of nowhere.

We'll hole up here.

Hope that some help comes.

My name is Ben.

What's your name?

- Barbara.

- Barbara.

- Yes.

- Now look here, Barbara.

I don't need you falling apart on me.

You understand?

I see what you did over there. I

know you can fight when you have to.

Well, you have to now.

Right now.

Fight what you're thinking'.

Fight what you're feeling'.

The fight'll keep you strong,

keep you thinking' straight.

What's happening?

I don't know.

Nobody knows.

Radio in the truck.

All I heard was trash talk.

Same as always.

People trying' to sound

like they know what's going' on.

They don't really know sh*t!

Same as always.

One guy saying it's...

escaped prisoners on the loose

from up at Hennessey.

Another guy saying it's...

some kind of chemical spill

making' everybody go crazy.

They don't know sh*t.

How do they explain...

a man walking' around

with his neck broken?

A man shot full of holes...

and still coming' at you?

Assholes... down in Evans City

out for a good time...

with their g*ns

and their six-packs.

Assholes trying' to round them up

and put them in the back of trucks.

Like they know what

they going to do with them.

They had 10, 20 of them

in the back of this panel truck.

They opened the door

to let another one in.

They come spilling' out of there...

like bugs.

[Sighs]

[Grunting]

I was at a diner.

Windows shot out.

Lady next to me shot dead.

Others too.

I saw six or seven go down.

Car exploded outside.

My car caught on fire.

It was like- like a w*r.

Some of those things

made it inside the diner.

Started comm' after us.

[Chuckles] Some good old'

boy comes chasing' him.

Mean son of a b*tch

got some kind of...

hot-sh*t g*n,

like an M-16 or something'.

He starts- [imitates

g*nf*re] sh**ting wild.

b*ll*ts tearin' up the place.

I saw one of those things

take 30 hits and keep on comin'.

The damn thing had to be dead,

but it kept on comin'...

till it took a hit in the head.

That brought it down.

The only way to stop 'em-

You got to-

You got to...

get 'em in the head.

Look, I don't know what's goin' on,

but I sure as hell know

that it ain't no prison break.

It ain't no kind of chemical that I ever

heard about can make a dead man walk.

This is something that nobody has ever

heard about and nobody's ever seen before.

This is hell on earth.

This is pure hell on earth.

[Frog Croaking]

[High-Pitched Whining]

Damn!

Doesn't take long

for the world to fall apart, does it?

There's got to be g*ns in this house.

Maybe upstairs.

I'm going to go

take a look around.

You all right down here alone?

There's something up there.

What?

[ Barbara]

What is it?

It's all right.

It's nothin' to worry about.

- What is it? - It's nothin'.

It's nothin'. it's all right.

[ Footsteps ]

[ Door Creaks]

[Screams]

Ben!

[Groaning]

- [g*n c*ck] - it's all right.

Don't sh**t. Don't sh**t, mister!

- It's just us! - Who the hell is “us”?

- Tom Bitner, sir. That's me.

[Woman] Harry, what's going on?

This here's Harry Cooper.

That's his wife callin'

down in the cellar.

They got a sick little girl

down there too.

My woman's down there too,

that's Judy Rose Larson.

Um, that's all of us.

Do you mind if we ask

who the hell you are now?

- Girl's Barbara. I'm Ben.

- You damned near broke my arm, Mr. Ben.

Harry, for God's sake!

- Aren't you going to answer her?

- Harry, please answer me!

Uh, it's all right.

We're all right.

- There's some people up here.

- Didn't you hear all the noise up here?

- We could've used some help. - Hey, maybe

you can see through walls. I can't.

We heard some

bangin' around up here.

It could've been those things

for all we could tell.

Wejust heard

some bangin' around is all.

No, no, that ain't right.

We heard the girl callin' out,

askin' if anyone was here.

We was just scared, that's all.

Want to know the truth?

We was scared to hell.

You live here, Tom?

No. This is my Uncle Rege's house.

Him and my cousin Satchel.

OI' Uncle Rege, he's dead.

I seen him. I swear to God.

I touched him.

He was stone cold dead.

He died today.

- And that's the truth!

- [Woman] Harry, please!

Let's go. We can talk in the cellar.

Me and Judy Rose,

we walked on over to be

with Satchel, you know?

Radio said there was some kind of trouble.

We didn't see nothin'.

We didn't see nothin'. Home to

here, we didn't see nothin'.

Damn it!

We have heard all this before!

I didn't hear it before, Cooper.

Go on, Tom.

Well, me and Judy Rose,

we walked on over like we said.

We wasn't here more than 1 O

minutes when Mr. Cooper there,

he come bangin' on the door.

How'd you get here?

You don't look like neighbors.

Oh, what? You tryin' to figure

out if somebody's got a car?

You don't think we've

all been through this before?

Mine is broken down

on the interstate,

and the kid here doesn't own one,

if you can believe that.

Damn!

What about you, Mr. Ben?

You don't exactly look

like neighbors yourself.

Truck- outside, out of gas. Gas?

Evans City is five miles away. Hey, we

can make five miles on freakin' fumes!

Yeah, what if

we don't make it?

You willin' to take that chance?

Besides, Evans City's a w*r zone, man.

I know. I been there.

It's going to take us a hell of a lot more

than five miles before we find any real help.

There's a gas pump out by the shed.

Huh?

But Uncle Rege,

he keeps it locked.

Do you know where the key is?

No, but I could hunt for it.

We will, but not now.

It could take too long.

Besides, we might never find it.

We got to figure out

what we're doin' first!

- Finish your story, Tom.

- This is bullshit.

If we're going to do something,

let's do it.

If we're going to stand around and

bullshit, let's do it in the cellar...

where it's safe. I'm not so sure goin'

down in that cellar is a smart move.

What do you mean?

I mean I'm not so sure...

lockin' ourselves down in that

cellar is such a smart move!

I'm not goin' down there until

I know what all the options are.

What damned options?

And who the f*ck gave you the right

to decide for the rest of us?

I'm not deciding for you

or anybody else, Cooper.

I'm thinkin' about my own a*s! Now, you

want to go down in that cellar, go!

Nobody's stoppin' you. For God

sakes, Harry, what's going on?

Damn it, Helen!

Will you quit yelling at me?

I can't think straight

with you yelling at me!

You know, I've only been

around you a minute or two,

but that's enough time for me

to know that I don't like you.

I'm sure you feel the same

about me, so let’s just...

try to stay out of each

other's way, all right?

Go on, Tom.

What else you got to tell?

Well, like I said,

Judy Rose and I, we wasn't here

more than 10 minutes, and...

Mr. Cooper, he come bangin'

on the door, you know.

We let him in,

him and his wife,

and I seen

their little girl was hurt,

so I, uh-

I tried to call for help, you know.

The phone's makin' this funny sound.

Tried and tried,

and I couldn't call nobody.

That's when Uncle Rege, uh,

he come walkin' out

of the bedroom, you know?

He was dead a minute before.

I swear to God.

He was not dead.

He couldn't have been.

Y-You were wrong.

You made a mistake. That's all.

He was dead.

I know he was.

What happened?

Uncle Rege, he went

after my cousin Satchel.

H-He- He went

after him like, uh-

I don't know.

Anybody else in the house?

No,just them.

Tom, I'm afraid

your cousin is dead.

Uh-huh. I know he's dead.

Shot himself.

I mean, Uncle Rege comin'

after him and all, you know?

I run down here and got the

shotgun, but what could I do?

I couldn't imagine

shootin' Uncle Rege.

Couldn't imagine

doin' a thing like that.

And that's when I told everyone

to go down in the cellar.

Goin' down in the cellar,

that's my idea.

- It was a good idea.

- Look. Look outside.

- Into the cellar, quick.

- No, that cellar's a death trap.

Those things don't have much strength,

but get enough together. they may

be able to break through the door.

Be cornered down there.

No way out.

We'd do better fightin' 'em off here

where there's still some way to escape.

A way out is a way in.

T-The windows-

Maybe we can board 'em up.

There's no time.

Those things are- Look, there's

only three of them, man.

I've handled more than that by myself.

We found these two g*ns.

I'm worried about more of 'em comin'.

That cellar door won't hold 'em.

- Oh, and the windows will.

- Look, I don't need this!

I told you before, you want

to go downstairs, go on. Get!

You can be boss down there.

I'm boss up here.

What you going

to do, Tom?

[Chuckles] Judy Rose, come on up.

We need your help.

You're crazy!

You're out of your minds.

This here'sjudy Rose.

Go get them old shelves out of the kitchen.

What are we doin' now?

We're going to board up them windows.

Tommy!

Board up the windows? Are you

sure we're going to be all right?

There are more of them things out there.

More of them things like Uncle Rege.

Tommy!

Go on. Do what I tell ya!

I shut this door, I'm not openin' it until

somebody comes who can get us out of here.

[ Scoffs ] If somebody like that comes,

we'll try to remember to call you.

Idiots! You lamebrains!

You're going to die up here.

You're going to die.

[Chattering]

[Hammering]

[Woman] You're going to be fine.

We're all going to be fine.

Daddy's found someone,

and we're going to get some help.

What's happening? They

decided to stay upstairs.

What about us?

it's safer down here.

- What about Sarah?

- It's safer down here, Helen.

[Sighs]

[ Ben ]

There's just that one hammer.

Here. Use this.

Nail 'em up quick and dirty.

Get the windows covered

as fast as you can.

We'll go around later

and reinforce them.

Anybody find any keys,

hang on to 'em.

How many people are up there?

There's two more.

- And they've got the g*n.

- No, they've got two g*ns.

They might have a hundred

g*ns, for all I know.

But it doesn't matter,

because it's safer down here!

We're going up.

We've got to get help for Sarah.

I'm not opening that door,

Helen, and neither are you.

And if you try, so help me I'll k*ll you.

You'll what?

That is your daughter lying there.

We have got to

get her to a doctor!

There's no doctors

upstairs, Helen.

And there's

no way out of here!

None of those yo-yos has a car!

[Grunts]

What a place to be stuck!

Middle of nowhere.

Bunch of yo-yos.

[Tom]

Judy Rose, help me here!

That's it. Grab this. Perfect.

Fever's gotten worse.

Look, she's going

to be all right.

Somebody'll come.

We'll get out of here.

We're all going to be all right.

[Hammering] [Ben] Did

you find anything?

I'm done over here.

They're crazy.

They're out of their minds.

You bunch of yo-yos!

This is the last of the big stuff, huh?

Not going to do it.

Hey, Tom, give me a hand.

Turn it over.

Come on. Come on.

Get the legs off. sh*t!

[Grunts]

All right. We'll leave our g*n here.

I'll be back. Come on, come on, come on!

[Grunts]

Get over here.

Okay, great.

Bring my g*n when you come back.

Come on. Nail it up.

Just get it up.

We'll reinforce it later.

They're so slow!

We could just walk right past 'em.

We wouldn't even have to run.

We could just walk

right past 'em.

[Hammering Continues]

We have the g*ns.

If we're careful,

we can get away.

You told me to fight.

Well, I'm fighting.

I'm not panicking.

This place is not safe,

not upstairs or down.

We should leave

before it's too late.

Look, I know you want

to get out of here,

and so do I,

and we're going to do it.

We're going to figure out a way to

get to that gas, and we'll be gone.

Now, you're doin' fine, all right?

I'm doin' fine.

We're all doin'just fine.

We're going to make it,

if we're careful.

Like you said,

we've got to be careful.

Get them doors down and nail 'em up!

That's it! Nice goin'!

Is she crazy or what?

Oh, my God.

Oh, my God.

Tommy!

Easy- Easy.

[Pounding] [Judy Rose

Screaming] Wait for Torn. Wait.

Wait a minute. Wait a minute.

All right. Nail it up.

Nail it up! Come on. Come on.

[Whimpering]

Just get a few nails in.

Okay. Get some in the table top.

All right?

[Hammering Continues]

[Glass Shattering]

[Screaming]

[ Screaming, Sobbing ]

[Groaning]

[Screaming]

[Zombie Gurgiing] it's all right. Come on.

Keep nailing. Keep pounding.

Get a hole for that one. Come on, Tom.

Tom! Oh, yeah, another door.

Let's get this baby off.

[whimpering]

That's good.

[Hammering Continues]

Easy, easy, easy.

All right.

[Moaning]

Hit it.

Come on!

Hey, we're goin'

upstairs for a minute.

We're going to leave

the weapons here, all right?

[Hammering Continues]

Hey, hey, Tom. Tom.

Wait a minute.

Wait a minute.

Don't go up.

It's all right.

Come on. Don't look at it.

What is this?

All new stuff in here?

Uncle Rege was

fixin' up the place.

- No good.

- it's better than nothin', Ben.

No good.

[Hammering Continues]

Hey, Tom.

Television.

Check it out and see

if anything's on.

[Static]

Found somethm'.

♪♪ [ Emergency Broadcast Tone]

Tellin' you what to do,

I think.

Damn. This must really be big.

Station's in Zelienople.

it's only about 20 miles from here.

Might as well be a hundred.

[Hammering Continues]

- Says they're going to come on live.

- Yeah? Well, we can't wait.

Give me a hand with some

of that lumber over there.

We can use some of this stuff

to cover the windows downstairs.

I'm some kind of stupid.

What?

Them old doors, the ones we took

down, they're all in the cellar.

Heads up down there!

- Idiots!

- What's happening up there?

How do I know what's

happening up there?

Said they were going

to board it up.

- Board it up, please.

- And you refused to help them.

That's right, Helen.

I refused.

Right! I refused.

You know why?

Because they're wrong.

it's a stupid idea.

The cellar is the only

safe place in the house.

You watch.

You just watch.

They're going to come begging for us to let

them in down here before this is all over.

And what will you do then?

Will you open the door then?

[Tom] Mr. Cooper?

Harry.

[Chuckles]

Mr. Cooper, we need the doors that's down

there so we can board up the windows.

- For God's sakes, Harry!

- Then f*ck him!

Mr. Cooper,

can you hear me?

Cooper! You open

this door right now!

We need those doors,

Cooper'.

I got a shotgun out here. Open this door,

m*therf*cker, or I'll blow it to sh*t!

What are you doing? Coopen

Open this door, now!

What do you hope to accomplish?

Shut up, Helen!

I'm counting to three,

then I'm coming through.

We're going to open!

I'm counting.

That's one-

What you going to do, Cooper?

That's two!

Better open this door

right now, Cooper!

[ Footsteps

Ascending Stairs]

LGrunting, Muttering]

Get your hands off of me.

Look. From now on,

you leave that door open!

We may want to get down there. We may need

to get down there if those things break in.

Yeah, sure. You want

the best of both worlds.

You get caged in up here, you want

to be able to run downstairs.

That's not the way

it's workin', pal.

You want to get in that cellar, you get

in there now or you can forget it!

I'm not boxin' myself in down there until

there's absolutely no other choice.

And I'm not gamblin'

with my daughter's life!

You want to stay up here, that's your

decision, but don't count on me to help you.

Look, I am not counting on you for sh*t.

That's why I'm not going to let you-

If you're going to keep on

fighting, then get out!

This is our house. This is Tommy's house.

Y0u'rejust all playin' rooster with it.

I'd like to know where you'd all

be if we didn't let you in here.

Where would you be

if we kicked you the hell out?

We're not going to kick anyone out,_ludy Rose.

We're not going to do anything like that.

Now, come on. Let's try to work together

and get some of this damn sh*t done!

You ought to keep her covered.

Get some blankets

from upstairs or somethin'.

How'd she get hurt?

One of those people

bit her on the arm.

[Sighs]

What? You want

this one too?

We have to get help.

We have to get a doctor for Sarah.

We're going to try.

Since you ain't doin' nothin', maybe you

want to start lookin' for those keys.

What keys? Keys to the

gas pump out back.

You mean, there's a car?

it's a truck!

The gas pump

is locked.

The keys could

be anywhere!

[Zombie Growling]

You know where- Keys- I'm-

I'm looking for-

Oh, my God.

[Growling]

Oh, my God.

Oh, my God.

I need the hammer in here.

Bring the hammer-

Look there.

[ r*fle c*ck]

Just like Uncle Rege. They're dead,

but they're coming right for us.

Hospitals are deluged.

Random acts of violence are being committed b

y people in a trance-like or hypnotic" state.

The y 've lost their ability to communicate

and reason, and they do not respond"

to command or authority.

C ivi/ forces and the military ha ve been

mobilized, but the violence is so widespread...

that it is impossible for rescue

services to respond with any efficiency.

People left to defend themselves are

caught in a river of- [Audio Fades]

Citizens faced with the collapse of

local police and fire departments...

have taken the law

into their own hands.

Civil and social services have

been disrupted or suspended.

Most communities

are without telephones.

Many are without power:

some are without gas and water.

The scientific community

is focusing on the phenomenon.

Specifically, on that trance-like state

that seems to characterize the assailants-

clearly a behavioral disorder.

But what could have caused...

so widespread and dramatic a condition

as the one we are facing tonight?

We've heard speculation on everything from

the ozone layer and chemical weapons...

to, uh,

voodoo, mysticism and organisms from space.

[ Chuckles ]

Biologists in Stockton, California,

ha ve released a report...

stating that the, uh,

bodies of

the recently dead are...

returning to life,

driven b y an unknown force that enables

the brain t0 continue t0 function.

Doctors at the Center for Disease

Control in Atlanta reject that theory,

calling it

“preposterous beyond belief”

They feel that the only

reasonable explanation...

is a germ- uh, a bacteria

or a virus that has...

a mind-altering effect

on its victims,

though how such a germ could have

been delivered so quickly...

and over such a vast area

does remain a mystery.

It's being called 'judgment Day"

I don't want to hear another word.

Tom, let's go.

I'm coming with you.

I can drive.

No, you're staying here.

Somebody's gotta drive,

somebody's got to do the gas, and

somebody's gotta ride shotgun.

That means three of us goes out. Tommy,

Her daddy's got trucks. She's been

driving since she was little.

All right. Is that shotgun loaded?

Yeah, I got shells in my pocket.

[ Man Over Radio] Do not attempt

Do not attempt to reach

any of the rescue stations...

identified in previous advisories.

They may no longer be in operation.

Repeating this advisory number nine from

the Office of Emergency Preparedness...

dated 11:00 p.m. August 23, 1989.

It has been confirmed

that the bodies of the dead...

are being reactivated

by forces as yet unknown.

[Chuckling]

Got that right.

[Man On Radio] These reactivated

bodies are weak and uncoordinated,

but are capable of inflicting

damage on people and on property.

They are to be considered

extremely dangerous,

especially when encountered

in large numbers.

These bodies can be disposed of

in only one known manner-

that is by incapacitating the brain.

[ Chuckling]

They got that right too.

These reactivated bodies...

will attack warm-blooded animals

of all species,

including human beings,

without provocation,

and will devour flesh of any prey.

[Laughing]

ltis' been confirmed that acts

of homicide and cannibalism...

reported through the afZe/'noon and

evening... [Continues Laughing]

of August 23, 1989...

are attributable,

at least in part,

to these

reactivated bodies.
