is not something that the voters
should concern themselves with?
We all have a past now, don't we?
You're much too defensive.
Looks like you have something to hide.
Look, I want you to watch me.
Take the camera.
- I want you to film me.
- Hold on.
Good.
We all have a past.
It's the better man
who can learn from his failures.
I know that I've learned from mine,
and I'm better for it.
Uh-huh. Well, what about the house?
Well, I think that it's quite unfair
by the misdeeds of his ancestors.
After all, I have quite a few
of my own to account for.
Aren't you afraid of the dolls?
What about the ghosts?
Well, the only spooks
that I'm afraid of...
are the ones with guns.
That's a good one, Rhodie.
Oh, no. Not if you want
to get elected, you won't.
Okay? Jesus, I've been
around you too long.
Look, Duke, this is the real response
to that one, okay?
I'm not concerned
with ghost stories.
I'm concerned with traditional
American values.
Original...
Let us bow our heads in prayer.
Unto the mercy of Almighty God...
we commend the soul
of our brother departed.
We commit his body to the ground...
earth to earth...
ashes to ashes...
dust to dust...
in the sure and certain hope...
of the resurrection
to eternal life.
Is there any truth to the rumor
that Mr. Willis' death was the result...
of some mysterious circumstances?
No, it was simply
an unfortunate accident.
Don't you think it would help your
position with the black community...
if you simply left Wilkes Manor
I think it's unfair to judge me
or any other person...
by the misdeeds
of their ancestors.
Besides, I have many misdeeds
of my own to account for.
So, you're not afraid
of the ghosts?
The only spooks I'm afraid of...
are you spooky reporters.
- What is your real goal?
- That's about it, folks. Thank you.
You need to be scared, Mr. Metger.
Them souls don't want you there.
They didn't want him there.
Now you best to leave...
or you'll end up
just like him, or worse.
Well, sir, I have
no intention of leaving...
so let's just hope that
the house and I can get along.
Can't we all just get along?
Heed my warning, Metger.
They don't want you there.
- The dolls don't want you there!
- That's about it.
Go away, old fool.
Do you hear me?
They want reparation!
They want reparation,
Mr. Metger!
Driver, who'd you let in this vehicle?
Stop the car.
Stop the damn car!
Goddamn it!
I let no one in the car, sir.
This is the real response
to that one.
Go.
I'm not concerned
with ghost stories.
I'm concerned with traditional
American values, original American...
What the f***?
Bruce, I need you or Janet
to give me a call.
There's somethin' wrong here.
Bruce! Janet! You back?
Thank goodness.
You!
Where the f*** did your
little black ass come from?
You think you and some old voodoo b*tch
can scare me out of my house?
I don't care how many slaves died here.
I didn't kill 'em.
You'll get no reparations.
You hear me?
No reparations!
I'll put an end
to your n*gger ass.
Now I'm gonna blow off
your little n*gger balls!
Not even some voodoo b*tch
Negress spell...
can overcome the power
of a double-barreled shotgun!
Goddamn.
I'm not afraid of you!
I killed one of you!
I'll kill you all, you...
You little nigglin's!
Come on out, you little
nappy-headed sons of b*tches!
Come on.
Come on out.
Say good night,
you little piece of black sh*t.
Goddamn!
Jesus!
Open!
You.
It gives you new reverence
for dolls, now don't it?
I mean, f*** it.
This is bullshit, Bulldog.
You gonna show us what
we came here to get, or what?
Really, though.
See, I ain't got all night to be
listenin' to no goddamn ghost stories.
These ain't ghost stories.
Everything I say is real.
Let's get this sh*t over with.
Let's see how real
this sh*t is you got.
Ah, the sh*t.
You ain't gonna
believe this, man.
This sh*t is a trip, homey.
Yes.
You knew him?
- Sure did.
- Hell, no.
We didn't know him.
He was just a n*gger we seen around.
He got himself involved...
in that crazy gang madness.
Yeah. Sh*t.
He got himself involved...
in the sh*t.
There's that punk
motherf***er Deke right there!
Catch you now,
you motherfuckin' b*tch.
Here, motherf***er.
Come on, n*gger.
Smoke this, n*gger.
Where the f*** you think
you're goin', b*tch?
Goddamn, n*gger.
You tryin' to blind me?
What's up?
What's up with that
sh*t you been talkin'?
B*tch-ass n*gger.
Son of a b*tch!
Motherf***er!
Where you want me to shoot
your ass, motherf***er?
In the head or in the chest?
Blast your little-ass
dick off first.
- F*** this, man!
- Hold on.
Don't do this cat just yet.
I wonder how many homies
he done puked over the years.
Too f***in' many!
What's up now, Crazy K?
You crazy, huh?
It's what you call "f***ed up."
F***!
Sh*t!
Saved by a motherfuckin' cop.
Damn.
Oh, f***.
Read me the summary on this one.
"Jerome Johns,
serving the fourth year...
of a life sentence
without a possibility of parole.
Solitary confinement the last two years
for assaults on other prisoners.
Previous arrests
and convictions included...
aggravated assault,
first degree battery...
suspicion of murder three times,
aggravated mayhem."
Jerome!
How would you like to
be released from prison?
Is you f***in'
with my mind, or what?
How that sh*t gonna happen?
Consent to
behavioral modification...
and you'll be out in no time.
- Yo, let's do this.
- Yo, let's.
He'll do.
Prepare him for transfer.
Get the f*** off me, man!
Sh*t!
Well, look what we have here.
The first soldier
in my army, perhaps.
So you're a real
bad-ass spade, huh?
What'd you say to me,
motherf***er?
You heard me.
to be in a place like this.
Otherwise you wouldn't be here.
So what'd you do? What you in for?
Murder, punk! And I wouldn't mind
doin' the sh*t again.
Me either.
I killed a lot of people.
You wanna know what kind?
Come over here.
I wanna show you somethin'.
What's wrong?
Are you afraid of me?
black and white has begun.
I've led my troops
on a wave of assaults...
to wake up my white brother.
All of the n*ggers
of the Earth will be killed...
except for the few that helped
with the fight against...
their mud-soul brethren.
Those few will be spared...
and live their lives as slaves.
Do you wanna be spared?
Come join my army.
Hey, n*gger,
those guys you killed...
What color were they?
They were n*ggers.
I know it.
You're cool with me, n*gger.
I like you.
I like you a lot.
I didn't like bein' put in there
with that crazy Klan motherf***er.
I put you next to him because I thought
he was someone you ought to meet.
You are here
to be rehabilitated...
by a process that the government
has paid me to develop.
If you successfully
complete this project...
