- You people have the book, don't you?
- Wh-Wh-Wh --
You have the book,
and you're going to give it to me.
Huh?
If you knew what was in that book,
you'd turn to jelly.
It's not meant for worms like you.
What'd you think you were going to do with it?
Sell it to a museum?
Why didn't you tell me you had--
[ Screaming ] Damn.! Heaven.!
[ Sighs ]
All right.
I underestimated you.
Put it away. You're safe.
Put it away.
[ Sighs ]
Whew.
I gotta hand it to you, kid.
Not many people could've come up with that.
So we'll make a deal, huh?
Let me tell you -- I can make a deal
like nobody you ever saw.
- Who are you?
- It's not who I am.
It's what I can do for you.
What do you want?
Anything in the world. Name it.
Money? Prestige? Girls?
You could have all the things
you've ever dreamed of.
You want proof.
Well, let's see. There oughta be some proof
walking around here somewhere.
Or maybe you've seen him --
the 30-foot ape?
I see you have.
Let me tell you, kid,
the supply is limitless.
Now, if I can create
creatures like that...
you know I can fulfill my promise.
All you have to do
is give me the book...
and discredit any story
your friends tell back in town...
and you can have anything
in this world you want.
Why is that book
so important to you?
Listen, kid!
You've got some protection right now...
but don't think that can save you.
You've been lucky so far,
but I haven't tried yet.
So make up your mind!
Which one of those girls is yours?
The tall one?
The other one.
Well, I haven't got to her yet, but I will.
Take my offer, or you and your friends
are as good as dead.
All the money you ever want, kid!
[ Hysterical Laughing ]
It'll be all right.
Susan, remember what Dr. Watermann
said in his notes?
He said that good and evil
coexist throughout the universe...
and in everybody's mind.
No. Not what was in my mind.
Nobody has thoughts,
feelings like that.
Nobody human anyway.
Listen, what was done can be undone,
if you have the knowledge.
And we have it,
or we will have with the book.
That man-- That whatever he is...
how could he do
a thing like this?
Dave, I didn't even remember it
until just now.
Well, maybe that's a good sign.
- Oh, damn!
- Here, let me help you.
Oh, it's no use!
It'll just break.
Where's Jim?
We've got to get out of here!
Take it easy, Vicki.Jim will be back.
He has to come this way.
Vicki, any one symbol
or Susan's cross...
from -- from whatever.
- It's only when we separate that we're --
- Oh, yeah?
Then why'd you spend all that time
trying to find Susan's cross?
- You've got a symbol.
- Well, take my symbol.
No. I don't know what I'm saying.
Take care of Susan.
- Oh, Vicki, I'm so --
- Don't apologize again, Susan. Please!
I'm all right.
Look, it wasn't your--
Oh, God. I've gotta find Jim!
Vicki!
Vicki, stop!
Stop! We've gotta stick together.
If you run afterJim, we'll lose him.
He'll be back this way.
[ Sobbing ]
David, I'm so scared!
We're gonna make it, Vicki.
He'll be along.
He'll be all right, Vicki.
I'm sorry. Susan, I'm sorry.
I didn't mean to make it worse for you.
- Here comes Jim.
- Oh,Jim!
We've gotta get out of here now
and leave that book.
- What?
- Mr. Asmodeus was the one who made that --
Yeah, yeah, we know.
He's done something to Susan.
- But we're not leaving that book.
- We've got to.
He says he'll kill us if we don't.
He made the monster.
Like it or not, we have a responsibility
to ourselves, if no one else.
What he did to Susan --
Well, with the book, she can be helped.
- But without it, it just --
- What did he do?
Never mind that.
Let's get the book and get out of here.
- Yes, but what if he comes back?
- Look, if Asmodeus comes back, we --
Asmodeus! I just remembered.
''Asmodeus'' is another name
for the devil.
- The devil?
- I believe it.
- You should have seen him in action.
- Oh, my God.
Go get the book,
and let's get out of here.
Okay.
[ David ]
Jim, look.! Over there.!
Stay back here or out of the way.
- [ Roars ]
Jim!Jim, use your symbol!
His back's to me.
Mr. Asmodeus?
Mr. Asmodeus, where are you?
Look, it's the book.
See? You can have it.
[ Roaring ]
[ Growling ]
He disappeared!
Oh, my God! He disappeared!
- Dave, what are we gonna --
- You two stay here.
I'm going through the barrier, see if I can
helpJim. Now, give me two minutes --
- Dave.!
-Jim!
Dave! Here, quick! The book!
- Grab me!
- Grab his arms.
Hurry! No! N -- No!
[ Vicki ]
Jim! Oh,Jim!
We've got to get out of here.
Quick, take the car and get help.
- No!
- He's right, Vicki. Come on.
[ Grunts ]
[ Wind Whistling ]
Jim!
Jim!
Over here.
Here. Let me help you.
Okay?
Where'd the girls go?
Well, they have -- I sent them back to the car
to go to the police or get help.
- With the book?
- Mm-hmm.
- Well, let's stop them.
-Jim?
Hold it!
Hold up. No use running.
I forgot to give 'em the keys.
- Which one of them has the book?
- Susan, but --
- Which way is the car?
- Well, that way, but we --
- Good. We'll split up.
- No, I don't think we should.
If you find them first, yell.
Jim.
Jim?
You're notJim, are you?
What have you done toJim?
What are you?
You were all such fools.
You and your friend Watermann, who was handed
the secrets of the powers of darkness...
and then didn't know
what to do with them.
That barrier is the result of his work.
Ha.! Now do you see
how helpless you are?
And now for those two girls.
[ Grunts ]
[ Shouts ]
[ Screaming ]
[ Gasps, Screaming ]
David!
David. David!
David! Oh, David!
David, wake up!
David. Wake up, please.
David! David!
[ Screaming ]
Susan.!
- Susan. The cross.
- David?
Susan! You okay? Come on.
David. David, those feelings!
Into the woods!
David. David, those feelings
are coming back.
Hang on, Susan. We'll make it.
We'll be all right.
- I've got the cross.
- Yeah, but --
If we can just get to the highway,
we'll flag a car.
Oh, David, my head.
David. Oh, David!
[ Explosion ]
Come on.
[ Explosions ]
You will not escape.
In one year and one day...
you will be dead!
[Johansen ]
Is that the whole story, David?
[ David ]
Yes, that's all of it.
I'll have to take that cross with me, David.
[ David ]
No. No! No, you can't!
- You'll get it back. Nurse. Nurse!
- No! No, you can't take my cross!
They'll kill m --
Did you hear anything usable
for your newspaper story?
No, I'm afraid not.
- What about the police?
- No, I was there first.
I was in hopes something would happen,
something I could get a story out of.
But this -- it's a year old.
So, what did you expect to happen?
I don't know, but it's been
exactly a year and a day...
since that made news.
