' Yes.

Hi, it's Nicky.

Nick Leonard.

Look, I'm sorry to call you at home,

but I must see you.

Oh look, Nicky, I'm right

in the middle of something.

Can this wait 'til class?

No, it's just really important

that I meet you tonight.

Nick, look.

I'm really flattered, but

I, I don't think we ought to

go out of the bounds of the

student-teacher relationship.

You know, and besides,

I am seeing somebody.

No, it's nothing like that.

It's just that,

well, what I'm talking about...

Look, you gotta see it for yourself

or you're never gonna believe me.

Look, Nick.

Please, you gotta trust me.

Just give me 10 minutes.

I'm begging you.

Better not be some

sort of fraternity joke.

This is no joke.

Meet me at my uncle's

funeral home in 20 minutes.

Okay.

Oh, and Miss Hayes.

' Yes.

The address is 242 Lamont Avenue.

Thanks Miss Hayes.

Thanks for coming Miss Hayes.

I really appreciate it.

We'd better hurry.

Hey, don't rush me.

I'm gonna tell you again,

this better not be a joke.

This is no joke.

Come on, he'll be back soon.

We'd better hurry.

So what?

Hey Nick, this, you know,

you're not gonna do something crazy?

No, but he is.

What do you mean?

Come on, I'll show you.

Be quiet, I don't wanna

wake up my aunt.

All right.

Nick, where the hell we going now?

My uncle's laboratory.

But be quiet.

Great, just great.

Wait here.

Wait here?

Oh great.

Nicolas, where are you going?

Nicolas!

Damn, he must've put

the body in the coffin.

It must be upstairs.

Oh thank God for that,

now let's get the hell out of here.

I don't know why I let

you talk me into this

in the first place.

No wait, look, I know

you think I'm nuts,

but I can prove it.

Prove what?

He's an Undertaker.

Now, let's get the hell out of here.

Nick!

Nicolas.

What are you looking for now?

The photographs,

but I can't find them.

Roscoe, is that you?

What are you doing

working there so late?

Damn, that's my aunt.

Oh my God, if she tells him.

Come on.

Damn neighbors

changing everyday.

Now they're trying to rob the dead.

Come on.

Nothing's

sacred, nothing's sacred.

Pretty gory, huh?

Yeah.

Well you must

really like this movie, sir.

How many times have you seen it?

Moron.

A**hole.

I know, I'm late again.

You're always late, Billy.

You made me go to

the movies by myself,

and then you pick me

up late, it's not fair.

I know, I know.

I promise it won't happen again.

You've been saying

that for how long now?

Thanks Nancy.

Sorry to call you on

such short notice.

It's all right, Mrs. Hudson.

Oh, and I'll probably

need you next week too.

I'm available.

Now you sure

you don't need a ride home?

I'm sure.

Thank you.

Good night, Nancy.

Good night.

I don't know why you're

crying, I learned this tonight.

You don't know what it's like

to never have a body warm and soft.

Like in the movie.

Sleep my love, sleep.

J1 Rock-A-Bye baby

flOn.

No, Uncle Roscoe.

I don't want to.

No.

I don't want to.

No, Uncle Roscoe.

You bastard.

You sick f***ing bastard.

Oh Nicky,

can I be of some assistance

to you my dear boy?

You sick bastard.

You sick f***ing perverted bastard.

Sick and perverted, Nicolas.

This is your uncle.

Since your mother died, and

your so-called father left you,

I sent you to school,

I remind you, Nicolas.

I'm surprised at you.

Miss Hayes said in school

today that people like you

should be put away.

Miss Hayes?

Some slut?

You'd take some sluts

word over your uncle,

who loves you?

Nicolas, you're breaking my...

- Loved me?

- Yes.

You never loved me.

Yes I do.

You're breaking my heart.

I'll kill you for what you did.

Really?

I'll kill you for what you did!

Do you know about

pressure points Nicolas?

On, Nicky.

Nicolas, you've been a very

big disappointment to me.

But there's someone

I want you to meet.

It's your Aunt Nancy.

She's precious, isn't she?

Look at her Nicolas, look at her.

Don't worry, Nick.

She'll be joining you

on that long journey.

I'm just going to put you to sleep.

Don't be afraid.

Calm yourself.

Do you think Uncle Roscoe

would hurt you Nicholas?

I love you.

What is this?

Jesus Christ!

Oh my God!

Have you seen Nick Leonard today?

No, but that's not unusual.

I don't have him in any

of my classes this year.

Hm, he didn't show up for

mine, and he never misses.

What do you have the hots

for this guy or something?

You have got a one-track mind.

Why, thank you.

I am just a little

concerned after last night.

I think it's a little weird, you know.

Uh, I gotta go, it's late.

- I'll see ya later.

- See ya later.

Mary Lawrence who

disappears about a week ago.

Or the Bowen kid, who

disappears last night.

Too much of a coincidence, right?

Well, what's our next move, Chief?

I don't know what the

hell we got going on here.

We better call in the state police.

okay-

- Let's go.

- All right.

Hang in there, okay.

You'll be all right, alright?

You hang in there.

So, you think there's

some connection between this

and the disappearance

of the two girls?

Look, the Bowen girl was

as reliable as the sunrise.

And the other kid, Mary Lawrence,

not the type to just take off.

Well the coroner can

pinpoint age, sex,

method, blood type.

If what you found belongs

to one of those two girls,

we'll know soon enough.

So, we can assume we're

dealing with a psycho.

Probably a drifter.

Nah, no 'cause a drifter

wouldn't stay long.

You know, he's too noticeable

in a small town like this.

And those disappearances

were a week apart.

How 'bout a college kid?

Ain't never had any

trouble with 'em before.

They can't even drink here.

This town's dry.

Well, let's not get too

far ahead of ourselves.

Let's see what the coroner has to say.

I got the paperwork all cleared up.

This whacko is following

this picture scene by scene.

This movie's his MO.

You gonna start using

that police jargon again?

If you wanted to be a cop

you should've taken the test.

Hey look Louise,

you think just because

I'm a security guard, it

means I can't solve a crime?

I can't make arrests?

Listen Sherlock,

I've got work to do.

Oh come on Louise,

take a look at it.

Let's just look at the murder scene.

One, we got a gruesome murder.

Blood scattered everywhere.

There are pieces of guts

and intestines laying scattered about.

Listen, I just, I just ate.

Why don't you go talk to

the projectionist, okay?

I'm sure he's seen it

more times than you.

Oh now, Louise, I always

thought you were brighter

than the rest of these hicks.

I mean, let's look, even the

missing bodies are in here.

And let me tell ya something Louise,

this guy's been in this theater,

and he's seen this

picture five or six times.

And you know what?

He's coming back.

Roscoe dear, it was a beautiful

funeral you did, you know.

You made it look so peaceful.

Thank you, Hazel.

And the mayor and

his wife both commented

how natural she looked.

Good.

You know, just the

other day I was thinking
