Synopsis: Charles Brady and his mother Mary move to a small Indiana town, having recently fled Bodega Bay, California after draining and killed a young girl there. They are sleepwalkers - they can change their appearance and they need the lifeforce from young women. Charles has picked out young Tanya Robertson, whom he meets at a local high school, as his next victim. He asks her out for a date and invites her home... however, she did not suspect his real interest in her. On their first date, a picnic at a nearby cemetery, Charles attempts to drain the lifeforce from Tanya for himself and his mother.

than you do for me?

You know better than that.

Why are you being such a b*tch?

Because I'm hungry!

You cannot be in love

with this girl, Charles.

Charles!

I'll get it.

You stay here.

I love you, mom.

Do you?

Hi. Um, I know you were supposed

to pick me up, but I was nearby.

Yeah, Tanya, um...

oh. Oh, this is a bad time.

Nonsense.

I'm so glad you came by.

Thank you.

Well, we really ought to go.

The light for Tanya's pictures...

will be just fine

for hours yet.

Come in, Tanya.

I have something for you.

- You do?

- Mm-hmm.

I won't keep you long. I know young

people have to run and play.

Wow!

Charles said you were nice, and he was right.

He usually is.

Oh, well, thank you.

Charles is very nice himself.

You have a very beautiful

home, Mrs. Brady.

Mm-hmm.

Oh!

These are beautiful figurines.

Oh, they've been in the family

for a long time.

You probably wouldn't

believe how long.

Uh, mom, we really

ought to be going.

Soon, Charles. Soon.

Just a second, dear.

This is beautiful.

Mmm, nice car.

Where's the trans am?

Oh, it's in the shop.

The mustang belongs to...

his mother.

Wow! Those all your cats?

There's a lot of 'em.

Oh, they're strays,

but we'll get rid of them.

We're good at

getting rid of pests.

There.

It finishes you, somehow.

Thank you.

That's very sweet.

Oh, sweets to the sweet, I always say.

Right, Charles?

Go on now, you two.

You'll lose the light.

Um, Mrs. Brady, it was

really nice to meet you.

Oh, very nice to meet you.

This way.

Thank you, ma'am.

Uh, this is it.

It's really beautiful here.

And so are you, Tanya.

Thank you, Charles.

Well, I better get these

out of the way right off.

Your mother's gonna want to know

some rubbing went on out here.

Me too, Charles.

Hey, wait up!

Charles?

Charles?

Oh!

Oh, hold it.

Come on.

Hey, clovis. Hey, clovis, what's up?

You catching a nap?

?? There comes Johnny

with is pecker in his hand??

?? He's a one-balled man

and he's off to the rodeo????

What are you looking at?

Hmm?

Oh, mmm, very nice. Gotcha.

Oh, very nice. Smile pretty.

Oh, very nice!

Ahhh!

Oh! Oh! Oh, my God!

Oh, I'm sorry.

Sorry.

No sorries.

Charles?

Do you really feel alone like

the characters in your story?

'Cause I do.

I know.

It's wonderful to feel...

to feel like

you're really with someone.

Together.

I think we better...

Charles... shhh.

You don't know me, Tanya.

But I want to.

Ow! Mmm, a little slower.

But I thought we

understood each other, Tanya.

I couldn't breathe.

Isn't this the excitement

you were talking about, Tanya?

You're right. We do

understand each other, Tanya.

See, this is just

how we live, Tanya.

No!

Tanya!

It doesn't have to hurt!

Don't you get it, Tanya?

I need you.

I need you to live!

Oh, God!

Please don't kill me!

Tanya, I don't think you're

entering into the spirit of this.

Why don't you just think

of yourself... as lunch?

Charles?

Peek-a-baby!

I lied!

It does have to hurt!

Feed me, Tanya.

Mother's hungry.

Just look at this shirt!

My mother's gonna kill me!

Get off me! Get off!

Stay away from me!

Now, Tanya, when exactly

did I lose your trust?

Help me!

Somebody help me!

?? So allemande left

and allemande right??

?? Come on, you f***in' Turkey

get your right foot right??

?? Get off the stage

you f***ing jerk??

?? You know

you piss me off????

Well, well...

Hold the phone!

Hold the phone!

All right.

- Help me!

- Please somebody help...

Get me out of here!

He's trying to kill me! Okay, calm down.

Tell me what happened.

He's right behind me!

Look, we'll get him!

You don't understand. He's trying to kill me!

This guy have a name?

His name is Charles Brady. He's not human!

His face changed!

Face changed? Get in the car.

Lock it. Yes! Please!

No, we both have to go, please.

Look, just calm down.

No, no, wait!

No! We both have to go!

Calm down, okay? Everything's

Isn't this fun?

No! No!

No!

Oh!

I don't believe you fired

a warning shot, officer.

Oh, my God!

Now... where were we, Tanya?

Oh, my God.

Unit three, unit three.

State your twenty. Come on.

Hello? Hello? Hello, help me, please!

Somebody help me!

Andy, get with the program. Bye.

Hello? Oh, God. Help!

Somebody help me, please! I'm at

homeland, and the policeman is dead!

Please! Please!

Please come!

Oh, God.

Please. Please come.

- Oh.

- Oh!

Charles!

My face is so hot!

Oh, God!

I'm sorry, mom. I tried.

I really, really tried.

It was the cat.

It was the kitty.

You were right.

We've only got each other.

Shh, shh, shh.

That doesn't matter.

Save your strength.

- How bad is it?

- Well, you'll be okay, honey.

But I'm afraid

they'll be coming for us soon.

We can go, mom. I'll be okay.

No.

We've got to stay here

until you're stronger.

But I want you to help me.

Try to make yourself dim.

Will you do that for me, honey?

Go on. Try.

I can't, mom.

I can't do it. Oh!

It's all right.

I'll do it for both of us.

There's the car and the...

The traps! Shh!

I'll take care of you.

Hey, buddy. Buddy.

I ain't taking the rap on this. I

lock this place up every night.

It's not my fault if every pervert, weirdo,

horny kid... go talk to someone in charge.

I'm busy.

Buddy.

Yeah?

Listen. It's not my fault if every horny

kid and weirdo, pervert comes in here.

I lock this place up. I don't need this action!

Okay, talk to the sheriff.

I checked it six or seven times.

Sheriff, hey.

Not now.

Okay. His name is Charles Brady,

formerly of paradise falls,

now living at 66 wicker street.

And the rest of it... including

the make and color of the car.

Okay, well,

we, we came in a red car.

And it was older.

But it wasn't a trans am. See,

he took me home in a trans am.

It was a blue trans am,

and he left here in one.

- Okay.

- Listen to me!

I know I sound crazy!

You're not getting the point!

Charles isn't human.

Excuse me, miss. Sheriff, I

need to document these bruises.

All right. Do you have

to do this right now?

Yeah. It'll just take a sec.

Don't worry.

Could you...

Just turn your head, please?

Thanks.

And the other way, please.

Oh, my God. My camera.

Did somebody find my camera?

I took his picture

in my camera.

Yes! Develop that film.

You'll have his picture.

Get on it, a.S.A.P.

Yeah, sure.

This is officer raeburn.

He's gonna run you home.

I'll have to come over later tonight and

ask you a few more questions, all right?

Okay. Are you sure his

name was Charles Brady?

That's what he said.

Do you think he was telling the truth?

I don't know.

He was...

he was very charming.

Take her home.

Excuse me.

- Um, sheriff?

- Yeah.

Will you bring the cat

when you come this evening?

What for?

- The cat saved my life.

- Okay.

Thank you.

Do her parents know a class one

assault did not occur?

You mean, do they know she managed to
