Wes Craven’s New Nightmare Page #4

I DON'T KNOW.

[BICYCLE BELL RINGS]

I'VE NOT BEEN ABLE

TO PROCESS IT:

VERY WELL MYSELF.

AND YOU'RE NOT CRAZY,

BY THE WAY.

SEEING FREDDY IN THAT GRAVE

FEELS PRETTY CRAZY

AND THEN JUMPING IN--

YOU DIDN'T JUMP IN.

THAT'S MY MEMORY.

IT SEEMED:

ABSOLUTELY REAL.

"SEEMED," NOT "WAS."

IT'S...

IT'S IN MY FAMILY,

YOU KNOW.

WHAT IS?

A VERY CLOSE RELATIVE

DIED IN AN INSTITUTION.

REALLY? WELL,

IF HAVING A SCREWY FAMILY

MADE A PERSON CRAZY,

THE WHOLE WORLD:

WOULD BE ONE BIG LOONY BIN.

[CHUCKLES]

YOU HAVE A CRAZED FAN

AFTER YOU.

THAT'S WHAT'S

MAKING YOU CRAZY.

AND PROBABLY DYLAN, TOO.

I NEVER MENTIONED

THAT TO HIM.

KIDS KNOW.

KIDS KNOW WHEN SOMETHING'S

BUGGING THE PARENT.

YOU HAVE NO IDEA

WHO THIS IS CALLING?

FREDDY, FOR ALL I KNOW.

COME ON.

HE'S A MAN.

OR A BOY WITH:

A DEEP, YOU KNOW...

FREDDY VOICE.

6 WEEKS OF THIS,

AND YOU'RE SURPRISED

YOU GOT FREDDY IN YOUR DREAMS?

HELL, SONNY BONO,

AFTER A WHILE,

BEGAN SEEING:

HIS STALKER EVERYWHERE,

EVEN AT MASS.

REALLY?

AND HOW MANY TIMES

DID LETTERMAN CALL THE COPS,

THINKING THAT WOMAN WAS DOWN

IN THE KITCHEN AGAIN?

YEAH.

REALLY GETS UNDER

YOUR SKIN IF YOU...

IF YOU LET IT.

YOU REALLY THINK

DYLAN'S OK?

DYLAN'S FINE.

YOU'RE FINE.

YOU'RE HURTING,

BUT YOU'RE FINE,

AND YOU'RE DEFINITELY

NOT CRAZY.

MY WORST FEAR--

THAT WHATEVER MADNESS

IS IN MY FAMILY:

I HAVE...

AND I'VE PASSED IT

ONTO DYLAN.

Heather:

DYLAN!

HEATHER!

DYLAN!

MAKE SURE HE'S OK, JOHN.

YEAH.

ARE YOU ALL RIGHT?

DYLAN!

OH, MY GOD.

ARE YOU OK? HUH?

ARE YOU SURE?

DOES ANYTHING HURT?

DYLAN,

ARE YOU ALL RIGHT?

HONEY.

ARE YOU ALL RIGHT?

ARE YOU SURE?

GOD WOULDN'T TAKE ME.

OH, MY GOD.

OH, HONEY.

John:

IT'S UNBELIEVABLE.

[CAR DRIVES BY]

[BIRDS CHIRPING]

[TELEPHONE RINGS]

[RING]

[BEEP]

YEAH?

ROBERT.

HEATHER,

YOU DOING ALL RIGHT?

HANGING IN THERE.

YOU KNOW THE GUY THAT WAS

CALLING ME ALL THE TIME?

HE STARTED AGAIN,

AND HE'S PUTTING STUFF

IN MY MAIL AGAIN.

OH, LISTEN, THE S.O.B.

PROBABLY READ ABOUT

THE FUNERAL:

IN THE PAPERS:

OR SOMETHING.

SICK MOTHER.

THAT'S THE LAST THING

YOU NEED RIGHT NOW,

I'M SURE.

ACTUALLY, IT'S BEEN GIVING ME

FREDDY NIGHTMARES.

WAIT A SECOND. NOW,

LET ME GET THIS STRAIGHT.

YOU'RE HAVING NIGHTMARES

ABOUT FREDDY?

AS IN ME?

NO. IT ISN'T YOU.

HE'S SCARIER.

HE'S...

DARKER?

MORE EVIL?

YEAH.

HOW DID YOU KNOW?

CALL IT A GUESS.

PRETTY DAMN GOOD GUESS.

ANYWAY WHAT:

I WAS CALLING ABOUT WAS,

HAVE YOU SEEN ANY

OF THE SCRIPT BY ANY CHANCE?

NO. WES WON'T SHOW IT

UNTIL HE'S FINISHED.

AT LEAST THAT'S

WHAT HE TOLD ME.

WELL, WHEN IS IT

GONNA BE DONE?

[LAUGHING]

THE WAY HE'S WRITING,

WHO KNOWS?

IT'S SO WEIRD.

I ASKED HIM HOW FAR

HE WAS AT THE FUNERAL.

WHAT DID HE SAY?

OH, YEAH.

"AS FAR AS DYLAN

TRYING TO REACH GOD."

WHATEVER THAT MEANS.

WEIRD, HUH?

PUTTING YOUR KID

IN THE SCRIPT.

ROBERT...

HAVE YOU BEEN:

HAVING NIGHTMARES?

[BIRD CAWING]

LOOK, WE NEED TO TALK,

BUT NOT OVER THE PHONE.

CAN I COME OVER?

UM, ACTUALLY,

HEATHER, UH...

TODAY'S NO GOOD.

THERE'S, UM...

THERE'S SOMETHING

I HAVE TO FINISH.

TOMORROW MAYBE, HUH?

OK, TOMORROW.

BUT EARLY IN THE MORNING.

AND MEANWHILE, ROBERT,

TAKE CARE, OK?

YEAH. SURE.

[BEEP]

[CREAKING]

[EERIE WHISPERING]

[RUSTLING]

AAH!

[PANTING]

DAMN IT!

UHH! UHH!

[FREDDY LAUGHS]

I TOUCHED HIM.

AAH! FREDDY!

[SCREAMING]

[SIREN]

ANY HISTORY OF EPILEPSY

IN YOUR FAMILY?

NO.

DIABETES?

NO.

WAS THERE:

A TRIGGER EVENT,

TRAUMA, SHOCK?

YOU HAVEN'T SHOWN HIM

ANY OF THE FILMS

YOU'VE MADE, HAVE YOU?

THE HORROR STUFF?

HIS FATHER:

JUST PASSED AWAY.

I'M SORRY.

BUT I'M CONVINCED

THOSE FILMS CAN TIP...

AN UNSTABLE CHILD

OVER THE EDGE.

UNSTABLE?

DYLAN'S NOT UNSTABLE.

HE'S JUST UPSET.

WELL, WE'LL RUN

A BATTERY OF TESTS,

AND WE'LL KNOW

IN A FEW DAYS.

DOES HE HAVE TO:

STAY OVERNIGHT?

ABSOLUTELY.

Woman on P.A.:

DR. DEGRASI...

ANYTHING MORE HAPPEN

WE NEED TO KNOW ABOUT?

LIKE WHAT?

SOMETIMES:

WHAT A CHILD SAYS

OR FANTASIZES:

WILL GIVE A CLUE

TO WHAT AILS HIM.

DID HE SAY ANYTHING

WHILE HE WAS STILL LUCID?

NO.

[TELEPHONE RINGS]

[RING]

Woman on P.A.:

DR. EINHORN, LINE 237.

WHAT DO WE HAVE HERE?

TOO SOON TO KNOW

FOR SURE.

THE EARLY SYMPTOMS POINT

TO CHILDHOOD SCHIZOPHRENIA.

DYLAN,

CAN YOU HEAR ME?

DYLAN,

YOU HAVE TO FIGHT IT,

WHATEVER IT IS:

THAT'S AFTER YOU,

AND YOU GOT TO:

COME BACK TO ME.

YOU CAN'T MAKE IT ALONE.

DO YOU HEAR?

IF YOU CAN HEAR ME,

THEN YOU CAN TELL ME

WHAT YOU NEED:

TO FEEL SAFE.

REX? IS THAT

WHAT YOU WANT?

WELL, REX IS AT HOME,

AND THAT'S WHERE

YOU SHOULD BE.

BUT YOU GOT TO:

GET BETTER:

BEFORE THEY'LL

LET YOU COME HOME.

DO YOU UNDERSTAND?

HOME.

HOME.

HOME, THAT'S RIGHT.

THAT'S WHERE

I WANT YOU, SWEETIE.

AND, YOU KNOW,

WE'RE NOT THAT FAR AWAY.

LOOK.

LOOK RIGHT OUT THERE.

PAST THE FREEWAY

IS OUR HOME.

BUT TO GET THERE,

YOU HAVE TO COME OUT

FROM WHERE YOU ARE

SO THAT THEY'LL LET YOU

COME HOME TO REX.

AND TO ME.

TIME FOR YOUR MEDICINE,

COWBOY.

HERE YOU GO.

WHAT IS THAT?

SOMETHING:

TO HELP HIM SLEEP.

OK.

THERE YOU GO.

IT LOOKS GOOD.

THERE YOU GO.

GOOD. GOOD. ATTABOY.

COME ON, NOW LIE DOWN

AND TAKE A LITTLE NAP.

YOU SHOULD:

GET SOME REST, TOO.

HE'S GOING TO BE FINE.

WE'RE GONNA DO SOME TESTS,

AND THEN YOU CAN

COME BACK LATER.

CAN YOU GET THAT

OTHER SIDE, PLEASE?

I GRABBED HIS THINGS.

THESE ARE HIS FAVORITE

PAJAMAS HERE.

UM...HONEY,

I'VE GOT TO GO.

I LOVE YOU, DYLAN.

REMEMBER WHAT I SAID.

WE'LL TAKE CARE

OF EVERYTHING.

GOOD-BYE.

[HORN HONKS]

Man:
WAKE UP, LADY!

DON'T LOSE IT NOW!

Woman on radio:

SEISMOLOGISTS AT CAL TECH

HAVE COUNTED OVER

300 TEMBLORS SO FAR.

THOUGH MOST WERE TOO FAINT

FOR US TO FEEL,

7 HAVE SHAKEN OUR COMMUNITY

IN THE LAST FEW WEEKS,

AND NOW SCIENTISTS

ARE SPECULATING:

THERE MIGHT BE:

AN UNKNOWN FAULT

RUNNING BENEATH:

LOS ANGELES,

A FAULT THAT COULD--

[LINE RINGS]

Robert:
HI. YOU'VE REACHED

THE ENGLUND RESIDENCE.

WE'RE OUT OF TOWN.

YOU CAN LEAVE A MESSAGE

IF YOU WISH, BUT, UH...

WE'LL BE GONE

FOR SOME TIME.

I WISH I COULD TELL YOU

WHERE THE SCRIPT WAS GOING.

THE FACT IS:

I DON'T KNOW.

NO, I...I DREAM

A SCENE AT NIGHT,

I WRITE IT DOWN:

IN THE MORNING.

BEYOND THAT, YOUR GUESS IS AS

GOOD AS MINE WHERE IT'S GOING.

WELL, AT LEAST TELL ME

WHAT IT'S ABOUT SO FAR.

COFFEE.

THANKS.

I CAN TELL YOU:

WHAT THE NIGHTMARE'S

ABOUT SO FAR.

IT'S ABOUT THIS ENTITY--
