Midnight Movie Page #4

---

Stand by.

That is correct. Avenue Theater.

Well it looks like the party's over.

Barrons ain't here. No one is.

No!

Miserable pig!

My bike is right there,

right f***in' there!

It might as well be on another planet

for all the good it'll do you.

Look, we can't count on anybody

coming to the rescue.

It's up to us.

We're just going to die like

the others, aren't we?

If we give up, that's exactly

what'll happen.

OK. So what are we gonna do?

We're going to find a way to stop him.

What are we supposed to do to him?

You guys, what we're up against

doesn't make any sense.

It's totally messed up, okay,

you need to start thinking like that.

What would they do in the movie?

Oh, right, that'll work.

That's it! The projector.

We just stop the movie.

Out of the way.

It's locked.

Just like all the other doors.

What about the projection window?

Timmy could fit.

It's too high.

Okay, you guys start pounding this door

and don't stop until I say so, okay?

Sure.

You know it's not going to open.

- Why are we... -

- Cause she said so!

Shut up, Mario.

You can do this, okay?

I won't know the way.

You're just going to listen for Harley,

he's banging on the door.

Ok? Come on.

Here.

- Bridget?

- You're okay, keep going.

Come on Timmy!

Timmy go!

What are you doing? I'm right here!

Come on, come on I'm right here!

Timmy open the door!

We did it! We got the son of a b*tch.

Good work, little man.

Gotcha motherf***er.

Go, go, go!

Timmy!

Are you okay?

He don't like small spaces.

Because you're so big?

Cause I can't breathe.

He's gonna hear you.

That ain't helping.

- I swear I heard a scream.

- What are we going to do about it?

It's every man for himself now.

Hey, I'll remember that

when he's coming after you.

Hey, where is everyone?

The POV is gone.

He must be back in the movie.

- Why did I let Timmy go with them?

- Because you'd be dead if you didn't.

I smell fear.

Yes. There's a girl out there.

It's not her.

That's it. That's how he does it.

He feel when we're afraid.

Bridget, can you tell where that is?

Come on!

While he's busy with her,

we can try the window again.

It's not going to open.

Josh, we need to find my brother.

Get out of my way, kid.

Oh please, I don't want to die.

Timmy!

Timmy!

We're going to make it out of here.

- I shouldn't have let him go.

- No... no no no. Bridget,

we're going to find Timmy...

Wait here.

Bring it on you son of a b*tch, bring it on!

I got your number pal.

That's right!

Bridget!

I can do this. I can do this.

I can do this.

Timmy?

Timmy!

Oh my God!

Where's Josh?

It's just us now.

Listen to me. Sit down.

You can't be afraid, okay?

That's a weakness.

He can't hurt you if you're not afraid.

You remember the secret place

where Dad could never hurt you?

The 2003 Cubs.

That's where you go.

Okay? So say it with me...

Sammy Sosa...

Sammy Sosa.

Good, go on.

Kerry Wood.

Mark Prior.

The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want.

Carlos Zambrano.

He maketh me

to lie down in green pastures.

He leadeth me besides the still waters.

Moises Alou.

He restoreth my soul.

Troy O'Leary.

He leadeth me

to the path of righteousness...

Hello?

Is there anybody out there?

Can somebody please help me?

Help... us...

I can't get in.

Oh my God!

I can't believe you're alive.

Bridget, you gotta... you gotta

get out of here while you still can.

What are you talking about?

You have to-

Bridget, look at yourself.

We're all like this.

We should be dead,

but for some reason none of us are.

I thought you'd never wake up.

I'm going to take my time with you.

Yes... I'd rather you be able to scream.

There's nothing that you can do

to me that hasn't been done already.

What your Daddy did is nothing compared

to what I have in store for you.

You're gonna wish you could die.

As I walk through the valley

of the shadow of death,

I will fear no evil.

Timmy, wake up.

Come on. Wake up!

No!

Bridget!

His story's bullshit and you know it.

Of course it is.

The kid saw something tonight

that has him scared to death,

so sure he makes up

a story to deal with it.

We ran the serial on it. It's his.

Okay. Put out an APB on Barrons.

What do you want me to do with this?

Tag it.

Well, don't worry.

He'll tell us what really happened

...eventually.
