All language subtitles for Prime Evil (1988).eng

In the
year of our Lord, 1349,

the black death had already decimated

more than half of Europe.

It was both a devote
and superstitious time

and the people believed
that God was visiting

the plague upon them
to expiate their sins.

Father Thomas, in
the name of God!

God?

Whose God?
God has forsaken us.

That is blasphemy.

There was great
turbulence within the church.

The fallen angel, Lucifer,
seized this opportunity.

He chose a leader who would
recruit a great following

and administer his prime
evil throughout the world.

We have pledged ourselves
to the only real God.

The only true force.

Our lord god, Satan!

I will excommunicate
you for this blasphemy!

I have given you fair warning.

Join us now or die.

- Never!
- Then die.

I commend him to thee, oh Satan.

Thus we seal up our bargain.

Who will be next?

Join us now and live forever

or die for nothing.

You'll burn in
hell, Brother Seaton.

- Father Daniel!
- I've got to see the bishop.

I've got to see the bishop.

- Father.
- They're back.

- What's the matter?
- God help us.

Father Fallen.
George, come quick!

In the name of our lord, god Satan,

the ruler of the world,

I hereby command the forces of darkness

to bestow their infernal powers upon me.

- ls she pure?
- Yes.

I swear it in the name of Satan.

- ls she your child?
- Yes.

- Swear it in the name of Satan!
- She is my daughter.

I swear it in the name of Satan.

Know this to be true.

With a sacrifice of your child

you will be granted 13
years under the protection

of our lord god, Satan.

For 13 years you will have power.

For 13 years you will want for nothing.

For 13 years you will not grow older.

13 years from this day,

you will once again prove your devotion

to our lord god, Satan,

with another sacrifice
of a blood relation.

You know what must be done.

- I do.
- Then seal your pact with Satan.

Daddy, no!

" Ben?

Where the hell are you?

Look Ben, I don't have all--

- You goddamn jerk!
- I was working on the boilers.

- Here's the list.

Remember,

if you have to take anyone out,
it's got to look like an accident.

What's the matter?
You want me to read it for you?

- I can read.
- Look, you better get moving.

There isn't all that much time.
We don't want to disappoint Thomas, do we?

Get out.

Alex is waiting.
I've gotta go.

I'll see you later, okay?

- Yeah, I'll be waiting.
- I'm not sure I deserve you.

I'm not sure you deserve me either.

You really are gonna wait for me?

Bye.

I love you too, honey.

I gotta go
Okay, bye bye-

Well, don't you look like the oat

that just swallowed
the little yellow bird.

- Oh, Alex, I'm in love.
- That mean you guys are serious?

If you call love serious.

Do you know it was
one month, today,

since you first walked
into this shelter?

And one month since you haven't taken
any drugs or did any tricks for Leon.

Does he ever try to get you back?

Yeah, I see him on the
street sometimes.

He acts like he
never even knew me.

- That's because he didn't.
- You know Leon.

He's gotta be cool.

I have a job for you.

Now don't get excited,
but it's on Wall Street.

- Wall Street?
- It's a paralegal position.

You'll be making about $23.05.

Oh my god, do you think I could get it?

They saw your resume and
they seemed really impressed.

A paralegal on Wall Street?
I don't know.

Cathy, you're a college graduate.
You've got credits in criminal law

and I don't suppose
Leon knew that, did he?

I'm glad he didn't.

The job interview is
tomorrow at two o'clock.

I'll write down the address.

Then there's a problem with
your probation officer,

but I spoke to her this morning.

- Oh shit.
- Everything's fine.

She's really happy with what
you've done with yourself.

She's really proud of you.

- You should be proud of me.
- I am.

Come on, I want you to meet Sam.

Sam, this is my dear friend, Alex.

- Nice to meet you.
- Sam here.

So, you're the one
that's stealing Cathy away.

- I'm gonna give it a shot.
- Well, I'm not exactly resisting.

Nice to meet you.

Cathy, good luck.

And you guys behave yourself.

I can not believe there
are so many health freaks.

With all eight new members today, I've
never worked so hard in my life, I swear.

- What do you call this?
- This I call relaxing.

What do you think, Alex?
Are my tits in shape or what?

You look great.

Oh God, I met this guy last night.

The way he looked at me, I could tell.
Definitely a breast man.

His eyes went straight
to boob level.

It's a good thing too. If he
were a leg man, I'd be doomed.

I'm cellulite from
the waist down.

Anyway, I'm seeing him again tonight.

I'm optimistic, so I
picked up some of those

multicolored condoms at the
Korean Deli on my lunch break.

They came with the pickled ginger to the
right of the broccoli at the salad bar.

God, Alex, there's nothing
like one-stop shopping.

Anyway, I'm buying the wine.

I'm buying the dinner.

I already got the Korean condoms.

God.

I swear,

men are so confused these days.

Girl has to do everything herself.

You know, I could be wrong, Alex.

I think Norman may be Mister Right.

Norman?

Brett, I don't know how many Mister
Rights you've told me about this month.

Big deal.
So I'm experimenting.

How about you?
You been going with Bill.

- We just started going out.
- Yeah, three months ago.

You never talk about him.

What is there to talk about?

What do you think?

Isn't it too sexy?

Or too trendy?

You look great, Brett.
Look, I gotta go. I'm really late.

Oh no, wait a minute.

Now come on, just tell me.

HOW is that Old Bill?

- What do you mean, how is he?
- You know, how is he in bed?

Is that all you ever think about?
No.

Yeah.

Well, no.

Oh come on, you never talk about it.

- Maybe I'm not obsessed with is, okay?
- Oh, maybe you're afraid of it.

What are you, my analyst?

No, as a matter of fact, I happen to be your
friend and I'd just like to see you happy.

Maybe I don't think happiness

is jumping in and out of bed with people.

Thank you very much, Alex.
Maybe I am just a bit extreme,

but you're extreme too.
The other extreme.

Don't you wanna get poked?

You wanted to see
me, Sister Angela?

Bishop McCabe, I know what
happened to Father Daniel.

It was sad, but expected.
He had a massive coronary.

No.
They killed him.

You're holding their
talisman in your hand.

Sister Angela,

how much do you know about this?

When I was a child,
we traveled a lot.

My father had business in many countries.

My mother was always so strange.

Towards the end of her
life we lived in Egypt

and it was there that
she met those people.

She became devoted to them.

And one night, I was
taken to a great hall.

I was barely conscious.

When I woke, I was chained to a cross.

Father came and rescued me

and mother died a few weeks later.

That whole night is very blurry,

except for one thing.

That.

That face

was on the monster that they used.

They used me.

Mother let them use me.

I went away to school.

There was evil in the world,

so I joined the convent.

You poor child. I'm afraid
it's worse than you think.

Hundreds of years ago,

thousands perhaps,
a sect, a cult was developed,

which worshiped a
pre-Christian horn to God.

They were dedicated to
destruction, damnation

and the weakness of the flesh.

Some are thought to have eternal life

granted to them by Satan.

I believe they've returned.

Your mother probably tried
to become one of them.

As for poor Father Daniels.

He must have discovered
their corrupt lair.

- What can be done?
- They must be destroyed.

I've been in touch with the archbishop
and some plans have been made.

- Please, Bishop, let me help.
- It will be extremely dangerous.

We need someone from the church
to infiltrate their cult.

My life was saved.
Saved for this.

Please, Bishop, let me go to them.

They're extremely powerful.
I don't think we can take the risk.

Please, bishop.

It must be done quickly.
At the winter solstice

they are in their most vulnerable state.

- How will I find them?
- They will find you.

I can arrange that.

They will find ironic pleasure
in accepting a disgraced nun.

But you mustn't be fooled.

They will be masquerading as
priests, nuns and bishops.

Their hearsay knows no bounds.

I'll arrange for you to leave the convent.

You'll be given some instruction.

And it will be known that
you've renounced your vows.

Yes, bishop.

And may God be with you.

Listen.

Did you hear something?

Probably the old lady's cat.

Don't worry about it.

No.

No, I heard something.

Hell, I'll go check it out.

Shit!

No!

Help!
Open up!

No!

No!

- Too much to drink, huh?
- Yeah.

Have fun, buddy.

So what do you but a
man who's 84 years old

and you haven't seen in 13 years?

Geritol.

Oh, you're some help.

I assume you've had other
girlfriends besides me, right?

- And?
- And am I different?

The others don't compare to you,
if that's what you mean.

No, that's not what I meant.

Hey, Alex, what's wrong?

Tell me.

We've been going out for
three months now, right?

Don't you think it's a little strange
that I won't let you sleep with me?

I'm still hoping.

I think I owe you an explanation.

My father really loved me.

At least, that's that I thought.

He was really sick.

I was just six years old.

And he sold me.

Maybe it was just for kicks.

They took pictures of me.

Oh god.

- Don't go on, Alex.
- No, I have to.

And then, they were
taking pictures of me.

They undressed me.

There was a little boy.

And they put us together

and they made us touch each other.

It was like it went on for months.

And father said that I
couldn't tell anybody

because they wouldn't understand

and they'd lock me up.

Grandfather came to the house one day

and said father wasn't coming back.

It was like a vanished
off the face of the earth.

After he was gone, didn't you
tell anybody what he did to you?

That he abused you?

No, the only one that
knew was grandfather.

And now you.

Sister Angela.

Yes.

You're much prettier
than your picture.

Come.

We've been expecting you.

- Can I help you?
- I'm Detective Dann Carr.

Homicide.

Homicide?

Yes, I understand you have a
young lady that works here

by the name of Cathy Burnham.

I'd like to talk to her.

Well, she doesn't exactly work here.

Typical police efficiency.

What does Cathy got
to do with homicide?

That's what we're trying to find out.
Her boyfriend, Sam Phelan,

was murdered last night in her apartment.

Are you sure?
I just saw him yesterday.

Well he's not breathing.
He wouldn't talk to me.

My guess is he's dead.

- My god.
- He was slaughtered and she's missing.

We'd like to have a word with her.
Do you know where she is?

Yes, of course.

She had an interview at
two o'clock this afternoon.

It's 1:30 now, maybe I can catch her.
Do you have the address?

Yes, of course.
Look, she'd never miss this interview.

It means everything to her.

Let's hope she shows.

Aren't you cutting it a little close?
Your time is running out.

Are you sure you can't
deliver her blood relative?

I delivered one
13 years ago, didn't I?

You did. But he wasn't
exactly what we had in mind.

This time, we expect you to deliver a woman.
A young woman.

- Innocent woman.
- Where?

And Alexandra is going to be perfect.

As far as my son is
concerned, he deserved to die.

He abused my granddaughter.

Remember,
you get extra points if she's a virgin.

She's been terrified of men every since that
dumb son-of-a-bitch fucked with her head.

God works in strange ways, doesn't he?

You're being very flippant for a man
about to sacrifice his granddaughter.

Remember, your life won't be worth much
if you screw up this ceremony.

You're talking to me
like I'm a beginner.

I've got the victim
and I'll deliver her.

I assure you, nothing
will go wrong.

Dear George, you're a
miserable, selfish old man.

And I think for you own
protection, dear George,

I better keep an eye on this deal myself.

- Why are you so good to me?
- Look, George,

I don't give a damn about you.

But Lucifer hates losing
anyone from his family.

That reflects on me
and this I won't stand for.

Did you see this?

Nun accused of devil
worship was excommunicated.

I know about it already.
We've made contact.

Hello?

Alex?

Detective Carr.

Cathy never showed for her appointment.

Oh my god, somethings happened.

We put out an APB.
She's officially missing.

Dann, she's a good girl.

Call me if you hear anything, please.

- I will.
- Thanks.

That's fine, Mrs. Quinto.

Thanks.

Not now, George.
I have a splitting headache.

okay-

When?

Can't you wait until
after the ceremony?

No I can't. I waited for you after the
last sacrifice, but you disappeared.

When off to have coffee
with Thomas, I presume.

Something like that.

Eventually, my dear Alison, I intend
to have as much power as Thomas.

Not this year, maybe not the next,
maybe not in this century,

but one day, as Satan as my witness,

I will replace Thomas as the leader.

Are you crazy? Talking like
that can be very dangerous,

especially before your ceremony.

I'm not afraid. I've devoted
my life to power, to control.

One day I will rule all men.

I will rule eternity.

Well, here I always thought
you had a damaged ego.

It's dangerous for
you to come here.

These monsters are
capable of anything.

I'm sure I wasn't followed.

Bishop, they want me to join them

and I'm sure I'll have to
take some kind of vows.

Will God understand?

Don't be frightened, my child.

In your heart you will pray to God,

you'll be safe.

No harm will be
done to you, Cathy.

You're quite safe.

Where am I?

You are with me

if you will trust me.

If you will hold
nothing back from me.

Come to me, my Cathy.

If you let me protect you,

I will give you love like
you've never known before.

Look deeply into my eyes

and you will know who I am.

You will become a part of me

and the great darkness
will become a part of you.

Do you believe me, my Cathy?

Then come to me, Cathy.

In my mouth.

Please, mom, they're expecting us
and granddad wants us to be there.

You can go without me.

I'm not going without you.
I'm bringing Bill and I'm bringing you.

Alex, you know how I
feel about those people.

I was never comfortable around your
father's family. I think they're...

- They're what?
- Evil.

Evil?
Oh for Christ's sakes, mom.

I mean, they're a little weird, but evil?

How can you say that?

Easily.

Granddad has always been kind to us.
I mean, I know he's always been away,

but he's always sending
presents and those letters.

Come on, mom, he needs us.

Us is not exactly what George needs.

We haven't seen the Parkmans
since I was a little girl.

Come on.

I can't put my finger on it.

Maybe evil is too strong a word,
but they have always made may skin crawl.

Oh please, mom.

Please, please, please.

All right.

Having fun, you two?

Fantastic.

This is Father Thomas Seaton,
an old family friend.

Frances, my daughter-in-law,

Alexandra, my granddaughter.

Bill King, her fiance.

And Alison Deveraux, an old friend.

Father.

How wonderful.

Tell me, Alexandra,

do you know the evil history
of the Parkman family?

No I don't.

John Parkman the pirate,
beheaded by Charles the 1st.

Come, let me tell you all about it.

- What kind of a priest is that?
- Very modern.

Has Alexandra spoken to you yet a
about coming here to live with me?

- She hasn't said a thing.
- I spoke to her when you first arrived.

I think she would be
very happy here with me.

- She's happy where she is.
- So she said, Frances.

But I've got this whole, big empty house.

To tell you the truth,

I'm lonely.

Poor thing.

You know I've always
adored that child.

I think it would be good
for her to live here.

God knows she wouldn't
want for anything.

I've never been exactly poor.

But after these last few year abroad,

I've returned a very wealthy man.

Congratulations.

So, what do you think?

About Alex coming to live with you?

I'm totally opposed to it.

I don't like you. I don't like any
of the Parkman's. I never did.

You married a Parkman, my dear.

Yes and lived to regret it, my dear.

Look, Alex is a grown woman.
I can't tell her where to live,

but I can sure as hell try to stop her.

- But it will be her decision.
- Yes.

And she'll move in with
you over my dead body.

Alexandra tells me you're a professor.

Huh?
Associate professor.

Renaissance history.

Ah, fascinating period.

Hot days, the mad blood stirring.

Particularly in the church.

You clergy must have had your hands
full with Lutheran and the reformation.

Some of us had our hands full, yes.

- I imagine you study that period a lot, huh?
- Oh yes.

In great detail.
One can become quite emersed in it.

Feel as if he's almost there.

Sometimes I think
it's still with us.

- I may not go that far.
- No, I'm sure you wouldn't.

I don't believe I told you all that.

I should've gone on about
myself so much, I'm sorry.

Sweetheart, come to me
when you need a friend.

Someone to talk to.

I would always be here for you.

Give me your hand.

Do you trust me, Alexandra?

Yes.

You need strength from a man.

You need real love.

A man's love.

Do you love Bill?

I think so.

He's so young.

I think maybe he's not
enough for you, my Alex.

We're getting married.

Alex, there's more
to love than marriage.

You must lose yourself.

Your body must become like air.
Free.

You must be possessed by passion.

Do you understand me, Alexandra?

Your eyes tell me how you feel.

You are so beautiful.

So fragile.

So vulnerable.

I will be your protector.

Your champion.

Look deeply into my eyes.

You touch my very heart.

My very soul.

You're making a fool
out of yourself and me.

- I don't know what you're talking about.
- Come on, you and that priest.

Why didn't you just go
upstairs and screw him, huh?

What an incredibly attractive man?

- Who?
- Father Thomas Seaton.

Too bad he's a priest.
I might come out of retirement for him.

Ugh, I'm exhausted.

Your grandfather wiped me out.

He's in good form.

Did you see his eyes, mom?

He had the most incredible eyes.

I could hardly look away.

Ugh.

Let's talk in the morning, dear.

Those Parkman's make your
old mother feel ancient

and tired.

All right, mom.

Good night.
Don't drink too much.

- Hello?
- Hi, Alex.

I think we should talk.
Oh, hi Bill.

I'm sorry you're still upset.

Upset?
How about bewildered?

Look, I'm sorry what happened.
But we were only talking.

Talking?
Ha. Ha.

- He's a priest for Christ's sakes.
- Alex, tell me. Do you still love me?

Yes, I still love you.

No! No!

Can you believe he's 84 years old?

Must be the Parkman genes.

No! No!

No!

Alex!

Alex, help me!

Alex!

Jealous now?

I don't know who she was.

Help!

Help!

Help! Alex!

Help me!

Let me talk to mom about it.

- All right, I'll talk to her now.
- That's better.

- All right, already.
- I think the sooner the better.

Okay, honey.
I love you, Alex.

Me too.
Bye.

Lunatic.

Oh mom, you're still up.
I was talking to Bill and he wanted...

Mom?

Mom?

Mom?

Mom?!

Mom!

Why have you betrayed
your church?

Where does all that
rage come from?

The church is a lie and I could
no longer live with that lie.

What is that lie?

The church is supposed
to care about people.

All they care about
is power and money.

I was a fool to believe in them.
A fool to take my vows.

The church is corrupt

and it's always been that way,
right down through history.

Do you know we were
once part of that church?

We were a medieval order
which broke away in the 1300s,

during the plague.
Since then we have been renegades.

But we've always
operated from a church.

The devil's powers are
stronger on consecrated ground.

Satan himself is a fallen angel.

Like the church, we too are
concerned about power and money,

but we don't deny it.

We aren't hypocrites.

Sister Angela, no matter
how much power and gold

that church hierarchy
has, they eventually die.

We don't.

Our kingdom isn't in some afterlife.

It's right here on Earth.

There were rumors about you and your
people when I was in the convent.

There have always been rumors.

They've made some feeble attempts to put
us out of business, but they always fail.

You see,
without us, they cannot exist.

Sister Angela,

five years ago you
made your vows to God.

- Are you ready to renounce them now?
- Yes.

Are you prepared to make
your vows to our church?

There's nothing I want more.

Unlike the church,

our vows are irrevocable.

Once taken, should you
ever break these vows,

your fate will be swift and terrible.

I understand.

You may stand, Sister Angela.

Sister Angela Spencer,

you're about to become a
sister of our lord god, Satan.

Denounce your former god.

Welcome, Sister Angela Spencer.

That was very
messy and very awkward.

You know Thomas has very
little control over the details.

Well that doesn't help me. The police
aren't convinced it was an accident.

They've been questioning me and Alexandra.

How could it be anything else?

She was obviously drinking
and chocked on her own vomit.

What do the cops want?

There was no sign of forced
entry, so what's the problem?

I don't know! Next time, get Thomas
to have a chat with you know who.

Sure.

I'll have him make a phone call.

George, you're an old fool.

I think you better join
the bereaved daughter.

And remember, we didn't go
through all this trouble

so that she could get marred
and live happily ever after.

It was a beautiful ceremony.

I just wished you had done the service.

I think mother would've liked that.

You know how it is.
Politics. The diocese.

Are you all right?

Yeah, I just miss her so much.
I don't know why this happened.

It's God's will.
We just have to accept it.

Moving in with your
grandfather was the right idea.

Alex, why didn't you tell me?

Now is not the time to be alone.

You'll be with
people who love you.

It would be the
best thing for you.

Especially with Christmas coming.

I suppose you're right.

Of course he's right.

Father Thomas is always right.

Bill, I wonder if you could help me.

There are some problems
with the arrangements.

I could use you moral support.

If you insist.

I'll see you back at the cars?

I missed you, my Alex.

You are very good to me.

I can feel your pain as if it were my own.

There is something that I
have to talk to you about.

But not here, not now.

There's something I have to
talk to you about too, Father.

Something I don't understand.

I know what you want to know.

You really think it's a
good idea to move in with him?

I thought you didn't trust the Parkman's.

- My mother didn't trust them.
- Your mother seemed pretty rational, Alex.

How come she didn't trust them?

- She thought they were evil.
- That's a pretty heavy thing to say.

She must've really believed it.

- Yeah, she believed it.
- And you don't.

Of course not.

As for that so-called priest, Seaton.
Is that is his name?

He should be a Parkman
if that's what it really means to be evil.

- And what the hell is that supposed to mean?
- Oh Alex, come on.

He doesn't exactly act like a man of God.

Every time I see you two together,
he's got his hands all over you.

I don't think you know
what you're talking about.

And I'm sick and tired
of you putting him down.

He cares about me. and he understands
what I'm going through,

which is apparently a lot
more than I can say about you.

The man is not of man.

This is very dangerous for you.

If you stop now, no
one will blame you.

I can't stop now.

There is going to be a
ceremony on December 21 st,

just as you said.

Something about the
Earth forces shifting

and Satan becoming more accessible.

At midnight of December 21st,

they're going to
sacrifice a young girl.

I need to know from
you how I can save her.

There is a way.

It will take all your courage.

If you fail, the consequences
could be devastating.

- You got any dope?
- Are you kidding?

I do.

Man.

I'm having the works.

Me too.

- Are they clean?
- Brand new.

That's not smack.
What is that, man?

It's better than smack.
It's new.

I just did some myself.

I'm really fucked.

You're gonna love it.

Me too.

What do you want from me, man?
I don't have any money.

I don't even have a place to stay.

I don't want anything from you.
I just wanna turn you on, that's all.

Maybe I made a mistake.

No, wait.
I'll try it.

I'll try it.

No, I got this thing about needles.

I gotta do it myself.

You're safe, Tina.

No harm will come to you.

I'm thirsty.

Wow, what a hangover.
Must've been some night.

I see we played some games.

Where the hell am I?

You are with me.

Okay, what's the gag?

If you will trust me,

if you will hold nothing back from me,

if you will let me protect you,

I will give you love as
you've never known before.

You will become a part of me.

And a great darkness will
become a part of you.

Hey, what's the deal?
What is this? A psycho drama?

You will attend her who
is the ultimate sacrifice.

Now we're getting somewhere.
Sacrifice, that's something I understand.

Take care.

Look deeply into my eyes

and sink into a twilight world.

You will sleep and do as I say.

- What kind of shit is this?
- You will sleep.

Hey, mac, you're hurting me!

- You will do as I say!
- You're nuts!

What's the matter?

Didn't she like you?

Don't you dare speak to me like that.
Get her out of here.

Suppose I don't feel like it.

You forget what I can do?

I can send you back.

Have you forgotten where you
were before we rescued you?

In the hospital.
I was sick.

Sick?
You were in a fucking padded cell

in the psych ward at Bellevue
for killing three people,

including your mother.

You're not one of us.
You're just a hired hand.

You will never be one of us.

You said I could be immortal.

I lied.

Now, don't be a complete asshole
and put that down.

Okay, Ben?

It's okay, just a dream.

Oh God.

It was such a bad dream.

There's this man, I
swear I know him.

Tell me what was in that dream.

It was really dark

and I was tied to this cross.

I can't remember any more.

I'm okay.

You go back to bed, okay Mrs. Quinto?

Call me Maria.
I get you something to drink.

- No, you don't have to bother.
- No, it's no bother.

- Guess who.
- Hello, Bill.

- Still mad?
- No, I'm not still mad.

- Yes you are.
- All right, I'm still mad.

We need to talk.
Can you meet me?

- No I can't meet you, I have a meeting.
- It's important, Alex.

Don't you think?

- Can't it wait for the weekend?
- No, the weekend could be too late.

All right.
Plaza at three.

- Fine, don't be late.
- Bye.

- Let's talk.
- Can't we go inside? I'm freezing.

No, I gotta make a point.
Listen. I got a plan.

Do you like this cold weather?

- No, why?
- Saint Croix.

What?

Let's go tot Saint
Croix for Christmas.

- I'd love to, but I couldn't.
- Why not?

- I can't leave grandpa at Christmas.
- Why?

Isn't he old enough to
take care of himself?

Or is it something else?

It's that Seaton guy, isn't it?
You can't stand to be away from him.

For Christ's sake, I don't want to argue
about it. I'm going back to work.

Alex, wait, I'm sorry.

I'm jealous.

I don't enjoy watching other men
touch you. when you barely let me.

Don't.

I've been very patient.
But it's not easy.

This is Judy.
Judy has no last name.

Sit up like a lady.

I picked her up in
front of port authority.

She was turning tricks
and she's underage.

- Big fucking deal, ain't it?
- I should arrest her for hooking.

Well do whatever the
fuck you want, man.

Don't do me any favors.

But first I thought I would do her
a favor, so I brought her here.

- Any news about Cathy?
- None.

- So where do you live, Judy?
- World Hotel.

Wonderful.

Hey, I don't need any value judgements.
I pay my own rent.

I did until this morning.

So where were you this morning?

I had a little dispute
with the front desk.

Her pimp was arrested for murder.

We got him down town in
the holding tank now.

Sorry, I can't.
The shelter's full.

Sounds cozy.

Okay, Snow White, I tried.
Let's go.

The dwarfs are waiting
in the precinct.

Wait a minute.

Okay, okay, I'll take her.

If you lock her up now,
you might as well throw away the key.

Oh, a death wish.

Well, it's your funeral.

Mrs. Quinto, this is Judy.

She'll be staying with
us for a few days.

Yeah, I know.
Mr. Parkman phoned and told me.

This is very
generous of granddad.

Hello, Judy.

Can I get you something?

Yeah.
Got any vodka?

I don't think you need any vodka.

I don't need any of your shit.

No vodka?

What about a beer?

I guess a beer would be okay.

Actually, Mrs. Quinto,
I'll have one too.

What are you, my fucking jailer?

I could walk out that door
right now and get some.

- And what would you buy it with?
- I don't have to buy it.

Someone always buys it for me.

Look, you're lucky to be here.
That cop was going to throw you in jail.

- Give me a break.
- Where would you get a beer in jail?

Oh, I'm supposed to be grateful?

Well nobody asked you for nothing,
so I don't know why you bother.

Sometimes I wonder.

Sounds like this cop
has the hots for you, Alex.

Is that all you can
think about, Brett?

Give me a break.

I'm only doing this to cheer you up.
You're so depressed.

I'm sorry.

- I just had a lot on my mind lately.
- What?

I said I'm sorry.
I've had a lot on my mind lately.

All right.

You know, I went outwith this cop once.
God, Brian.

I swear, he was a
sexual psychopath.

If you asked me, he was in
love with his night stick.

Oh God.

You know, I do feel better.

Kinda have that affect on me, Brett.

You sure you don't wanna
go for a drink after?

I can't. I gotta lose five pounds.
I've got a bodacious butt by tomorrow.

I get to meet Norman's parents.

God, I think he's getting real serious

and I'm just not so sure
anymore that he's Mr. Right.

Just come for a
drink. Just one little one.

Alex, I can not.

After the club closes I'll be
here all by myself swimming.

Do you wanna come?

I gotta continue the never
ending battle against cellulite.

You know what I mean?

Oh God.

Hello?

Somebody there?

Hello?

Hello?

Excuse me, can I help you?

You looking for somebody in particular?

I think everybody's already gone home.

Look, do you mind going some place else?

Cause you're making am trifle nervous.

I think I'll get out now,

if that's okay.

I don't have to ask you if that's okay.
Of course it's okay.

Okay, I'm gonna go
to the locker room.

My friends are in there.

Actually, they're waiting
for me in the locker room.

Right now.

I'm going there right now.

You are really asking
for it, you moron!

Don't you ever touch them again!

Don't. No.

Stop it.

We're supposed to play this?

Don't, don't, don't.
Stop.

Stop. Stop.

Bill.

Bill.

Bill!

I'm sorry.

This is getting ridiculous.
I feel like a teenager.

- Don't be mad.
- I'm not mad.

I'm gonna have to give up.

Did you hear that?

It's probably the old man.

No, he's not supposed
to be home until later.

Probably nothing.

Oh Bill, don't be mad.

Hey no, it's okay.

Really, I'm not mad.

Remember that charm, the
talisman you showed me?

Do you still have it?

Talk about changing the subject.

Yeah, why?

I did a little more research.

I found an exact copy of
it in Montague Summers.

It's authentic.
The real artifact.

It's ancient. Two, three
thousand years old.

No kidding.

My mother had it on
her body when she died.

Mrs. Quinto had it in her hand.
Don't you think that's a little strange?

Yes I do.

I think your phony priest
has something to do with it.

Oh come on, Bill.
Not this again.

That's not all. I think your grandfather's
involved. Why does he look so young, Alex?

He should have a foot and a half in
the grave and instead he looks 50.

- You're nuts!
- Am I?

Yes, you are.

Detective Dann Carr, homicide.

- Carr.
- Hi, this is Bill King.

I'm calling about Alexandra Parkman.
She's my girlfriend.

- Yes, I know who you are.
- Listen, I think her life is in danger.

Now this is gonna sound stupid,
but I think her family is mixed up

in some sort of a cult. We don't
have much time because some ritual,

something is happening.

Look, as long as there
are no human sacrifices,

that's not against the law.
Save me a chicken wing.

What makes you think
Alex is in danger?

Because two people who were
close to her have died

under very unusual circumstances.

Strangely enough, Mr.
King, we are aware of this.

Look, this is a little complicated to talk
on the phone. We have to talk in person.

I'm gonna pick up Alexandra

and I'm gonna meet you at
the precinct in an hour.

If you insist.

She's not at work.

Where did she go?
It's important that I see her.

- Bill, I believe she's in church.
- Church? What?

Oh, Seaton's Church.

Yes, she went to see Father Seaton.

She's been feeling a bit depressed lately.

I don't know what I think anymore.

When I'm not with you,
everything seems normal.

When I hear your voice,

see your eyes.

Tell me about your
relationship with Bill.

He knows there's something wrong

and he's blaming you for it.

But he should be blaming me.

He wants me to make love with him

and I keep pushing him away,

but if I don't I'm afraid
I'm gonna lose him.

Listen carefully to me, Alexandra.

Close your eyes and
hear only my voice.

Close your eyes and
remember our kiss.

Think only of me.

Bill is not important.

You and I are important.

Forget about Bill.

Do you understand me, Alexandra?

- Yes, Father.
- Do you trust me, Alexandra?

Yes.

You and I,

we must be together.

I will possess you one day.

I will take your soul.

Do you understand me?

Will you be willing to
come here tomorrow alone?

I will come whenever you ask.

Will you be willing
to give yourself to me?

Yes, Father.

Never forget, Alexandra.

I love you.

I love you too, Thomas.

The church is closed.

Impossible.

A young lady came here about a half
and hour ago. She has to be inside.

Thomas Seaton, is he here?

Look, the young lady, she's Alexandra
Parkman. I'm her boyfriend.

Do you know who she is?

Alex?

Alex?

Alex?

Alex? Alex?

Alex?

Alex?

Alison, I'm beginning to feel my age.

Tomorrow night can't come soon enough.

Here's to our lives.

May they last until world's end.
And to my future.

The beginning of the Parkman legacy

and the end of Thomas Seaton.

It's just not that simple.
I wouldn't talk that way if I were you.

You're not me.

You've been around for how long?
And you've accomplished nothing.

I'm just beginning to show the world

the true meaning of power.

Tell me, Alison,

how old are you, really?

Only the devil knows for sure.

Carr.

Where?

Saint Michael's, yeah.

OK.

Okay, when?

All right. Got it.

We're on our way.

- What's the deal?
- Bill King,

Alexandta Parkman's boyfriend,

jumped off a roof or was pushed.

- Where?
- Saint Michael's, come on.

We're going to confession.

You come to me to join our flock.

Remove the worldly garments
and join our flock.

You who come to me

are sanctified in the name of Satan.

Do you come of your own free will?

Yes.

Whom do you love?

Satan.

Then come to his alter and be wed.

Daughters of Satan,

daughters of evil.

Join one with the other

and come to your master.

Davis, wake up.

Dann, enough.

Please, can we go home?

We've been in this room forever.

We're not leaving until
we're through, all right?

This charm or gizmo or
whatever the hell it is

is a common denominator in
three of the four deaths.

Alex Parkman knew
everybody on this list.

Including the missing woman.

We don't know that
Brett Shaffer is missing.

Her boyfriend, Norman, called me.

She's been missing
four days, all right?

I don't believe anything
anybody named Norman tells you.

Besides, as for Judy the happy hooker,
we don't know that she is missing.

She's probably taken up at
some rich John's somewhere.

I still say this gizmo
has something to do with it.

Her boyfriend said cult, okay?

And her family, they're involved.
So is that church.

Dann, stop!
What are we talking?

Evil priest? Devil worship?
Human sacrifices?

The department shrink
will be fascinated.

No, listen to me!

How come no one was at St.
Michael's when Bill King died?

No nuns, no priests,
no nothing.

How come the doors were locked?
What kind of church is that?

I suppose all the people on the board

were attacked by Satan, maybe.
"Isn't that special?"

So you believe in the beyond?
The supernatural?

The occult? ls that it?
Oh, that's fine.

Look, I don't need your help.
I can do this alone.

- Me help, kemosabe.
- Jesus, it's freezing in here.

Why don't they turn on
the goddamn heat sometime?

What do you want?
It's the first day of winter.

Ugh.

- What day is this?
- Must be Wednesday by now.

No, no, no, no.
The date.

December 21st.

You know, Christmas parties?
Christmas bonuses?

That's it.
That's it!

The winter solstice.
They're gonna do it today. Tonight.

Midnight, probably.
That's when they always do it.

Do what? Do what?
What are you talking about?

- Come on, let's go.
- Where are you going?

That church to get Alex.
We're going to get her back.

They're going to do it to her tonight.
They're after her, come on!

Alex?

Alex?

Alex?

Come to me.

It is time.

Come and give yourself to me.

Dear Alex.

You are mine.

Forever.

- I'm gonna shoot the lock off.
- Wait, wait, wait.

Pays to check.

- One good idea in your life.
- Two. You go first.

Count of three.

One,

two,

three.

- How can I help you, gentlemen?
- Where is she?

How dramatic. You must be
from the police department.

Cut the crap, fart breath.

- You must be Thomas Seaton.
- Indubitably.

You have got Alexandra Parkman

and I demand to know where she is.

I'm Detective Dann Carr, homicide.

This is getting tiresome.

Look, I've got a phone warrant against
you for a number of suspected homicides.

I have a mass to
perform and I'm late.

I bet you've never seen one
this big before, have you?

Well, you take another
step and it may go off.

- Not stopping...
- All right, put your hands

behind your head and
get on the floor.

Don't take another step.

You're under arrest!
Shoot!

No! No!

The blood of Satan purifies us.

Hear us, oh Satan.

For the time approaches quickly.

Are you frightened?

No, Thomas.

- Who will give this woman to Satan?
- I Will.

- ls she pure?
- Yes, I swear on the name of Satan.

- Is she your grandchild?
- Yes, I swear in the name of Satan.

Hey, Dann.

Hey, buddy.

Come on.

We gotta get Batman, come on.

Come on, the bastard got away.

Come on.

Man, did he mess your face up.

For 13 years you will have power.

For 13 years you will want for nothing.

For 13 years you will not grow older.

George Parkman,

seal your pact with the devil.

Ben!

Get her!

Ben! Stop her!

You win

this time!

Oh my god.

Do you know what happened?

It's just like when I was a child.

Only now the missing pieces
are falling in place.

It's positively prime evil.

We can start the lease,
say the beginning of March,

and if you need extra space
for bingo or church suppers,

there's an additional
building down the street.

I wonder, Mrs. Brown,

if we might check the basement.
