When Crawford activates the apparatus, he sees creatures flying in the air and he summons Dr. Pretorius. The experiment goes out of control and Dr. Pretorius refuses to turn off the Resonator. Meanwhile their neighbor calls the police, and when the police officers arrive, they see Crawford trying to escape from his house and Dr. Pretorius beheaded. Crawford is sent to a mental institution under the supervision of the sadistic Dr. Bloch. However, the prominent psychiatrist Dr. Katherine McMichaels requests the custody of Crawford and Detective Bubba Brownlee that is investigating the case stays with them. Katherine goes with Crawford and Bubba to see the Resonator and turns the machine on. Dr. Pretorius returns in a mutant shape and attacks them, in the beginning of a gore night with weird life forms.

Wrap him up. I'll get the van ready.

Put some clothes on,

unless you want me to take you

kicking and screaming like that.

What the hell are you doing?

I told you to get dressed.

I did.

The van's ready. You going like that?

What a shame.

I just... love what you've done

with this room.

You're asking for it.

Look at yourself! Look at yourself!

Is that who you are?

I don't know.

I don't know who I am.

Listen.

- Crawford, we're leaving now.

- No, listen.

The resonator. It's him.

He's trying to start the resonator

from Beyond.

Son of a b*tch!

Bastard!

Bubba, pull the cable!

Use the axe! The axe!

Damn!

No, God!

God!

God!

No!

Bubba!

Katherine.

Crawford!

Kiss.

Kiss, my dear.

Humans are such easy prey.

Let her go.

Oh, I will...

beyond her wildest dreams.

She will go into my mind

and I will go into hers.

It's the greatest sensual

pleasure there is.

You never knew pleasure or gave it.

Only pain.

You are evolving into a being

that has never existed before.

I'm Crawford Tillinghast.

Let it happen, Crawford.

No!

- Let it out!

- No!

Crawford!

Oh, it's so beautiful.

So...

beautiful!

Now you can truly see.

What have you done to him?

I only awakened his sleeping pineal gland.

It did the rest itself.

No!

Crawford!

You whore!

Die, you f***er!

Oh, Crawford!

The police are here.

She's been telling us a pretty wild story.

I have been telling you the truth.

We'd like your opinion

of her mental state.

I'd rather give you my opinion

of her professional conduct.

You're contemptible.

Look at her.

I doubt she even understands

what she's done.

You cost Crawford Tillinghast his mind.

Quite possibly his life.

And another man's life.

That machine has got to be destroyed.

I listened to you the first time and

now I've lost one of my best men.

The DA's going to chew me a new a**hole,

thanks to you.

She's in your custody now.

No, no, wait a minute.

You can't lock me up.

Not here, please.

I can't do much with her in this agitated

state. She'll upset the other patients.

Do whatever you think best.

Listen, Dr Bloch, please.

You know that I'm sorry for everything

that I've done.

You have got to let me go back.

Don't you tell me what I have got

to do, girl wonder.

You always have all the answers,

don't you.

Well, you're my patient now

and I've got a few answers myself.

Prepare her for electroshock therapy.

But... Dr Bloch...

- hospital policy says...

- Hospital policy dictates

that the nursing staff has to follow

orders. Now, do as I say.

- Yes, doctor.

- No!

Stop her!

My God, Bloch! No!

Set her up in number five.

I'm going to go check on Tillinghast.

If she continues to resist, sedate her.

Please, don't do this.

It's not necessary.

I'm all right now.

He's gone.

Call security.

Crawford.

Please don't eat those.

Delicious.

They... can make you very sick.

Oh God!

What is happening to me?

We...

We don't know for sure

but we're going to find out.

We're going to go in

the hall now, Crawford.

Take it easy, honey.

Come quick. Something's happened

and we need your help.

Wait a minute. What about her?

Lock her up in her room.

Katherine?

Katherine?

I need a drink.

Oh God! Let me outta here.

- You'd better hurry...

- Yeah, yeah.

Before he goes into DTs.

Oh, and get me a candy bar. I'm starving.

Harley.

Harley, what's going on?

Oh no! Oh, dear Lord!

Oh God! Oh no!

I saw... a snake.

A snake came out of its head

and ate him. Dear Lord!

Sh*t, Harley, you son of a b*tch,

he's gone into DTs.

A long... A long...

Harley!

Oh, dear Lord! No, God!

Harley?

You all right?

That's the snake man! That's him!

Somebody! Somebody help me!

Help! Help!

Oh help! Somebody!

Help!

Crawford! Stop!

Crawford, let me go.

What are? Crawford?

Crawford, stop!

Crawford, oh my God!

Why are you doing this?

Because I love you, Katherine.

Crawford, we have to get out of here.

The resonator's going to blow up.

I want us to be together.

Listen to me.

I set a timing device on a bomb.

We only have a few minutes.

It doesn't matter.

If Pretorious can turn on that machine

then he'll always have a way back here.

He's always here.

Don't you understand?

He won't just influence us.

He'll devour us and the rest

of the human race if he can.

You're so beautiful.

Please, Crawford.

It won't hurt, I promise.

Crawford!

Help me!

Katherine?

Welcome, my dear.

I've been waiting for you.

- Edward! No!

- Yes!

The greatest sensual pleasure there is

is to know the desires of another mind.

I know your desires, you impotent pig!

We are the most powerful being

in the universe.

She'll know, Edward, how pathetic you are.

How you can't make love.

Maybe you could teach me.

Crawford!

All right, come and get me, eunuch.

This time I'm not running away.

Katherine, run!

Crawford!

What happened?

There was a big explosion

near the top of the house.

I've called the fire department.

They'll get you to the hospital.

Oh, my God!

What happened up there?

It...

ate him.
