where the gates of hell
have been opened.
Where exactly is this city?
I don't know where it is.
All I know is that it is
called dunwich.
How do you know?
I mean how can you be so sure?
I read the name
on a tombstone
mr. Bell,
open it may be
the end of humanity.
We gotta try to get them
shut again.
At midnight on monday
we go into all saints day.
The night of the dead
begins then.
And if the portals of hell
don't get shut before then,
no dead body will ever be
able to rest in peace again.
And so the dead will rise
up and take over the earth.
You've got to get to dunwich.
You must re-close those
gates
bob?
Bob, are you here?
Bob?
Bob?
Bob...?
Bob
bob...
what happened?
Did you hurt yourself?
Bob
bob...
bob
bob...
don't leave me alone
I'm afraid...
hello?
It's you, mr. Robbins.
No, emily's not here,
I'm afraid.
What's that?
She's usually home
this hour of the night.
I hope that nothing's
happened to her.
There's been a lot of
strange talk circulating.
Come on now
mr. Robbins.
Ignore it.
People here in this town
thrive on that stuff.
You should know it by now.
She'll be home in another
couple of minutes.
If you need me for any
reason though,
feel free to call.
I should be at the studio
for at least
another hour or so, okay?
Goodbye mr. Robbins.
Goodbye
no, no...
come on tommy, please.
No please, tommy
what the devil's the matter
honey?
You treat me like I was a
stranger.
What have I done?
Tell me.
How come you picked out
here to park?
the willies.
Oh, rose. Come on.
You're not a little child now.
that stupid
salem witch stuff, do you?
Of course not.
Now what's wrong?
Sorry tommy, but...
but I keep thinking that
someone's out there
spying on us.
Come on.
There isn't anyone out there
watch.
I'll turn on the headlights.
You know this dunwich
it's not even on the map.
So, you don't believe me,
do you?
That's not the point.
It's just going to be harder
to find, that's all.
We don't even know
where to start, do we?
You know I get my inner
visions too. You know.
Just let me meditate
over a bottle of scotch
and?
And I'll take you anywhere.
Well, she certainly wasn't
strangled.
Doesn't seem to have been
any kind of physical abuse.
What was the cause of her
death then?
Some kind of cardiac arrest.
Only that expression on her
face looks like pure fear
like something scared
her to death.
Scared her?
- Excuse me, mr. Robbins
do you know if your daughter
had a heart condition?
No...
oh god...
well, what's our procedure?
Sit tight.
Everything depends
on the autopsy.
I'll sit tight
you'll get your order after
that from the d.a.
Okay, but let me hear
from you, joe
what's your opinion, jerry?
What's there to say.
I'm at a total loss.
It was bob...
that pervert?
- You can bet on it
they should have
put him away for life
after what he tried to do
with poor little anne ross
listen, I'll call all three
cars out after that boy
and I wouldn't be surprised
if he could tell us
what happened to rosy
kellman and frank's kid, too
sheriff russell...
sheriff
what the dickens is this?
Good lord...
that kid is gonna fry...
mark my word.
So, your newspaper editor
wouldn't believe you?
Listen.
about 2 years ago
that I'd meet a girl who
would be buried alive,
I didn't believe him either.
I mean, I laughed right
in his face.
Deniro was aware of
many things.
He knew all about the
city of the dead.
Okay, okay.
Say I believe you.
Did you see...
when you were in this
trance did you see anything
besides that tombstone?
Oh yes.
I saw a priest
who by hanging himself
opened the gates of hell.
He must be destroyed...
amen.
The lord is my shepherd...
this way please.
Where is she?
Where is my emily?
She's in heaven now,
mrs. Robbins
mrs. Holden?
Yes. Mrs. Holden died
last night
and according to
dr. Thompson,
was frightened to death.
Frightened to death?
That's what she said, fear.
Of what?
Damned if I know, doc.
It's the strangest thing
I've ever heard of.
Fear?
There's been talk that
rose calvin and tommy
fisher disappeared too.
They went to the movies
last night
and nobody has seen them since.
That makes five people
that have
disappeared in the last
48 hours.
I think it's bob.
I don't believe in this
superstitious nonsense.
Yeah, maybe you're right
sure, remember two years
ago when
bob took little anne into
the woods?
It was a miracle we found
him in time.
Yeah, and I say it's him
he's the one causing all
God only knows what he
did to poor emily.
All I know is that the air
in dunwich
soon as I can find
somebody to buy my
shop and my house
I'm vamoosing.
You can bet your ass.
Calm down, dear.
Take it easy.
Calm down.
My baby, my poor baby
you better take john john out.
Yes, of course.
John john
come on.
Let's go outside.
Let's take a walk.
You have to be strong now.
You have to find courage
to face reality.
You have to be a man.
Do you know what I mean?
I'm hungry
good.
There's a lollipop in the
glove box
look. I'm not joking.
I'm starved.
Look, you're the one
who got me out here
in the armpit of the world
chasing your galloping
cadavers.
Come on.
Let's go have a snack someplace
okay.
You want to give up?
Why don't you get in the car
we'll go and check out
the local cuisine.
Don't be upset.
Upset? Who's upset?
According to your
theory we have less than
48 hours before
this... aii saints day.
Oh please. Not now.
Do you mind?
Come on.
Let's go check out
the local cuisine
mommy...
daddy... mommy... daddy...
mommy...
what's the matter, honey?
Emily is back.
I saw her
looking in the window.
Emily went away forever,
john john
she's in heaven.
I saw her...
i swear, I saw her
I really did
you better call the doctor.
I'm alright...
I don't need a doctor.
I don't want a doctor...
i saw her
you had a big day.
You're upset.
We all are.
Off you go now.
Go to bed.
I don't wanna go, mommy
I'm scared...
emily's gonna get me
I know it...
hello?
It's me, sandra.
You have to come right away.
No, there's no time to explain.
You wouldn't believe me anyway.
Just come, please
I'm having a
nervous breakdown...
yes, okay. Sandra,
just calm down
and control yourself.
What is it?
There's only two possibilities.
Either I'm going out
of my mind or
something very very strange
is happening.
Look, take it easy.
I'll be there
in 10 minutes, honey.
Bye.
Jerry, is that you?
Yeah, it's me.
Come in...
come in
what do you need that for?
I don't know,
maybe a crucifix
would be better.
A crucifix?
What the hell are
you talking about?
Tell me the truth.
Do you consider
me a basket case?
No, not at all.
Why?
Your nurturing a pet
